新冠逝者家属:修正病例是对逝者公正真实的评判

CGTN 2020-08-24

翁江的父母在这次的疫情中因罹患新冠肺炎去世,他们的房子还保持着大年三十那天的样子——沙发上放着母亲为过年准备的手写菜谱,父亲打算开春播种的种子在冰箱里码得整整齐齐。


年三十上午,翁江的母亲从这个家里被送到了医院,下午,他的父亲也被接去了医院。


可就在入院的十来天后,两位老人不幸离世,翁江甚至没能好好地与父母告别。


This year's Chinese New Year was the most difficult holiday Weng Jiang had to spend.


On January 24, just one day before the Lunar New Year, a time traditionally reserved for family reunions, both of Weng's parents were sent to hospital.


A few days later, they passed away. Weng didn't get the chance to see them one last time or properly bid farewell to them.


在疫情肆虐的那段时间,翁江一家四口都感染了病毒,翁江和妻子在确诊之后被治愈。


因为疫情初期核酸检测资源有限,翁江的父母未能被列入确诊病例,但一时的统计疏漏不代表他们会被遗忘


His parents died from COVID-19, and Weng and his wife were battling the potentially fatal disease at another facility.


Weng and his wife were confirmed as COVID-19 patients and eventually recovered.


But because of a shortage of testing kits in the early stages of the outbreak in Wuhan, the epicenter of the outbreak in China, the man's parents passed away without a definite diagnosis even though they exhibited all the symptoms of COVID-19.


The old couple's previous exclusion from COVID-19 statistics, however, didn't mean they were forgotten.


为了核实新冠肺炎的相关数据,在过去的两个月中,社区工作者、医院的工作人员和当地民政局的工作人员多次打来电话向翁江了解核对他父母的情况。


4月17日,武汉公布了修正后的当地新冠肺炎感染病例数和死亡数统计数据,感染病例数从50008上调至50333,死亡病例数从2579上调至3869。


In the past two months, community workers, hospital staff and officials from the local Bureau of Civil Affairs approached Weng numerous times to confirm with him what had happened with his parents as authorities worked to complete coronavirus-related data.


On April 17, Wuhan revised the total number of confirmed COVID-19 infections and fatalities after a months-long probe.


从事IT行业的翁江对于数据的要求是“越严谨越好”,这次的数据修订对他来说意味着“公平”与“真实”。


“在疫情刚开始的时候,那么忙那么乱,说完全不出错是不可能的。但起码对数据进行了校正,起码对这些逝者也是一个比较公正的,相当真实的评判。”翁江说。


"In the early stages of the outbreak, it was busy and chaotic, there definitely would have been mistakes," Weng said. "But at least [authorities] are revising the numbers. I think it's pretty fair to those who died."


在采访中,翁江向镜头展示了母亲最后包的一些饺子。


“绝版的,手工打的饺子,”翁江拍拍冰箱里的饺子,“想他们的时候就吃一点。”
