There have been concerns around the world about a shortage of testing kits, but a NSW Health spokeswoman said they would not ramp up testing efforts if they did not have the capacity to do so.
这句话是早上新闻看来的，but后面我以前一直认为是接和上句相反的句子，比如上句说，全世界都缺测试工具，but我们不缺。我就能理解，这里but之后怎么说的和上句好像是一个事情，那but怎么翻译？肯定不能翻译成“可是”了吧？

There have been concerns around the world about a shortage of testing kits, but a NSW Health spokeswoman said they would not ramp up testing efforts if they did not have the capacity to do so.

"Across its nine dedicated COVID-19 testing laboratories, NSW Health Pathology has the capacity to undertake more than 5000 tests per day, which exceeds the current demand for testing in NSW," the spokeswoman said.

看后面的内容，意思是说新洲一天能测5000多例，但是现在不需要测那么多。也就是新洲有这个capacity，不存在短缺的问题。
前面是说没这个能力的话也没办法加大测试力度，这是个事实。
