The senior Blue House official said, "Since the app started functioning properly, the inventory rates at each pharmacy have significantly dropped," adding, "It seems the app has been working correctly as days have passed."

The senior Blue House official added, "For example, I heard that pharmacies located in basements had accumulated stock, and some on higher floors of buildings also had stockpiles, but those have been accurately depleted, and reports indicate that the phenomenon of stockpiling is gradually decreasing," further stating, "We plan to conduct a full evaluation again and improve any points that need improvement."
