美国约翰斯·霍普金斯大学的统计数据显示，目前全球新冠肺炎确诊病例已超过280万例，死亡病例超过20万。当新冠肺炎疫情冲击着人类生活的方方面面，这样一场危机再次表明人类是一个休戚与共的命运共同体，更需要团结起来，共同战“疫”。然而一直以来，一些别有用心的人将疫情政治化、污名化，导致了种族歧视和仇外情绪；关于病毒和疫情的各种阴谋论和谎言甚嚣尘上，一些不实消息更是将“矛头”直指中国。回顾梳理此前的一些报道、采访以及一些专家学者的最新科研成果，让我们来为你揭开真相、破除谬误。点击↑↑↑真相放大镜 | 不！新型冠状病毒非人工合成2月18日，27名知名公共卫生专家在《柳叶刀》官网上发表声明，公开谴责新冠病毒非自然起源的阴谋论。声明称：“我们共同强烈谴责那种认为新冠病毒并非源自自然界的阴谋论。”On February 18, 27 international public health experts decried false claims that the novel coronavirus was lab manufactured. In a statement on The Lancet website, they said: "We stand together to strongly condemn conspiracy theories suggesting that COVID-19 does not have a natural origin."
点击查看↑↑↑《柳叶刀》发表全球学者联合声明力挺中国同行，反驳“人工合成”阴谋论2月19日，世界卫生组织也证实了这一说法: “没有证据表明新冠病毒是实验室制造出来的，也没有证据表明它被做成某种生物武器。”On February 19, the World Health Organization (WHO) followed suit: "There is no evidence that this virus was produced in a laboratory, and certainly no evidence that it was produced as a biological weapon. They come from the animal kingdom."
点击查看↑↑↑真相放大镜 | 关于新型冠状病毒，阴谋论者最不想要你知道的那些事在科学杂志《自然医学》3月刊发的一篇研究论文中，美国、英国和澳大利亚的科学家研究了在入侵细胞过程中发挥作用的新冠病毒刺突蛋白的两个特征：抓住以及进入宿主细胞。研究结果表明，新冠病毒刺突蛋白与人体细胞的结合效率之高，只有自然选择才能实现，靠人工操纵无法完成。Coronaviruses are named for the crown-like spikes on their surface. In a study published on Nature Medicine in March, a group of scientists from the U.S., Britain, Australia analyzed two specific features of spike proteins of the virus, which are responsible for gripping and entering into the host cells. The results show that the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein is optimized for binding to a molecular on the outside of human cells, so efficient that scientists concluded it was the result of natural selection and not a purposefully manipulated virus.4月21日，世卫组织再次反驳“病毒人工合成”的阴谋论。世卫组织认为，就现有证据来看，这一病毒起源自动物而非实验室人为制造。WHO said that all available evidence suggests the novel coronavirus originated in animals late last year and was not manipulated or produced in a laboratory.点击查看↑↑↑CGTN专访武汉病毒所专家袁志明：我不相信人类有智慧可以合成这样一个病毒
针对“武汉病毒所泄露病毒”的谣言，武汉病毒研究所研究员袁志明近日在接受CGTN专访时表示，“这病毒绝对不可能是从我们这边出来的。我们有严格的管理制度，有我们的科研行为准则和相关的一些东西，所以我们对这一点充满信心。”袁志明认为之所以会有这样的“谣言”，是因为“（一些人）会出于他的一种目的，去混淆视听，去干扰我们的抗击疫情活动，甚至是干扰我们的科技活动。”In response to the rumor that the "virus leaked from the Wuhan virology institute", Yuan Zhiming, Researcher of Wuhan Institute of Virology told CGTN: "There's no way this virus came out from us— We have a strict regulatory regime, we have a code of conduct for research, so we are confident of that.""Part of the purpose is to confuse people, to interfere with our anti-epidemic activities, or even our scientific activities," added Yuan. 点击查看↑↑↑新冠病毒源于武汉实验室？国际社会强烈驳斥：无稽之谈！悉尼大学进化生物学家和病毒学家爱德华·霍尔姆斯在接受CGTN独家专访时表示，新冠病毒是从动物身上以自然进化的方式产生的，身上没有任何实验室操作的特点。Edward Charles Holmes, evolutionary biologist and virologist at the University of Sydney, shared his view with CGTN that the novel coronavirus is not a lab construct.有美国“抗疫队长”之称的美国顶级传染病学专家安东尼·福奇此前也曾表示，现有证据表明“目前新冠病毒的突变与某物种将病毒从动物身上传递给人类的过程完全吻合”，驳斥了“病毒源于武汉实验室”的阴谋论。Anthony Fauci the leading infectious disease expert in the U.S., suggested the available evidence on the origins of the virus is "totally consistent with a jump of a species from an animal to a human", throwing cold water on conspiracy theories that coronavirus was created in a Wuhan lab.
点击查看↑↑↑世卫组织：新冠病毒源头尚不确定，应避免污名化2月28日，世卫组织在日内瓦召开发布会表示，新冠病毒源头尚不确定，去年12月的一些初始病例与华南海鲜市场有关，但另一些初始病例与该市场并无接触。The origins of the virus and its intermediate host are yet to be found, Maria VanKerkhove, technical lead of the WHO Health Emergencies Program said during a brief on February 28. She explained that some early cases of the COVID-19 virus had no exposure to the Huanan Seafood Market in Wuhan.点击查看↑↑↑美国科学家：新冠病毒起源于武汉华南海鲜市场是错误观点杜兰大学医学院教授罗伯特·加里3月在接受美国广播公司采访时指出了“新冠病毒起源于武汉华南海鲜市场”是一个错误的观点。加里表示武汉华南海鲜市场虽然有一些病例，但它并不是病毒的源头。他和其他团队都分析发现了比海鲜市场更早的病毒起源。Robert Garry, a professor at the Tulane University School of Medicine, pointed out that it's a misconception to believe the virus originated at a seafood market in Wuhan, China. "Our analyses, and others too, point to an earlier origin than that," Garry said. "There were definitely cases there, but that wasn't the origin of the virus."
点击查看↑↑↑CGTN独家专访剑桥大学新冠病毒变种报告第一作者：没有证据表明新冠病毒起源于武汉4月8日，国际知名的学术期刊《美国科学院院报》（PNAS）发表文章“Phylogenetic network analysis of SARS-CoV-2 genomes”。论文由来自德国和英国的研究团队共同撰写，第一作者为英国剑桥大学的彼得·福斯特博士。CGTN通过视频连线的方式采访了福斯特博士。他指出，新冠病毒毒株可分为A、B、C三种类型。在武汉疫情明显时首先被发现的一个基因组是B型病毒，B型常见，但不是原始毒株。Researchers at Cambridge University have discovered that the coronavirus mutated into three distinct strains as it spread across the globe. They traced the origins of the epidemic by analyzing 160 genomes from human patients and found that the strain in Wuhan mutated from an earlier version.
点击查看↑↑↑真相放大镜|中国到底有没有向世界发出警报？疫情发生后，中国快速完成了病毒的鉴定和测序。1月12日，中国向世卫组织提交了新冠病毒基因组序列信息，在全球范围内共享。世卫组织表示中国此举为其他国家开展病毒检测、开发诊断试剂奠定了基础。China isolated and identified the virus strain soon after the outbreak in the country. It shared the genetic sequence of the novel coronavirus on January 12, which is "of great importance for other countries to use in developing specific diagnostic kits," said the WHO.
点击查看↑↑↑真相放大镜 | 世卫组织的防疫建议，谁听进去了？点击查看↑↑↑《科学》杂志：中国“封城”的决定可能阻止了数十万病例的出现3 月 31 日，《科学》杂志在线发表的一项研究认为，自 1 月 23 日起实行的“封城”等措施让中国新冠肺炎感染者的总病例数减少了 96%，可能阻止了超过70万病例的出现，对疫情的遏制起到了至关重要的作用。
China's decision to lock down the city of Wuhan may have prevented more than 700,000 COVID-19 cases by containing the spread of the coronavirus, according to a study published in the journal Science on March 31.点击查看↑↑↑真相放大镜 | 新冠肺炎疫情防控，中国做对了哪五件事点击查看↑↑↑美政客污蔑中国隐瞒疫情，华春莹硬核回怼近9分钟在4月2日的外交部例行记者会上，彭博社记者提问称美国情报官员说，中国隐瞒了此次疫情的真实情况，瞒报了真实的病例数和死亡数。对此，外交部发言人华春莹回应表示，中国政府采取的措施果断、及时、有力，最大程度地保护了中国人民的生命安全和身体健康，也为阻止疫情在世界的蔓延争取了宝贵的时间。中国已经尽了最大的努力，做到了公开、透明和负责任。"The measures taken by the Chinese government have been decisive, timely, and strong. We have worked, to the best of our capabilities, to protect the lives and welfare of the Chinese people... while buying the world valuable time to stem the pandemic. China has done its best to be open, transparent, and accountable," said Hua Chunying, China’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson during a daily briefing on April 2.世卫组织卫生紧急项目执行主任迈克·瑞安4月1日也表示，中国等亚洲国家每天都在提供关于新冠肺炎疫情的大量科研成果，不应被贴上“不透明”的标签。Asian countries including China are contributing "fantastic" scientifically-based research publications about the COVID-19 outbreak "on a daily basis," and should not be tagged as "non-transparent," Mike Ryan, executive director of the WHO's Health Emergencies Program, said on April 1.点击查看↑↑↑武汉修正确诊病例和病亡数据，为何会出现数据差异？4月17日，武汉市新冠肺炎疫情防控指挥部发布通报，本着对历史负责、对人民负责、对逝者负责的原则，为确保全市新冠肺炎疫情信息公开透明、数据准确，将新冠肺炎确诊病例数由50008例修正为50333例，核增325例；确诊病例的死亡病例由2579例修正为3869例，核增1290例。Wuhan revised the numbers of confirmed COVID-19 cases and deaths after a citywide check since last month, according to a statement on April 17. As of April 16, there were 50,333 confirmed cases (revised from 50,008) and 3,869 deaths (revised from 2,579) in the city.点击查看↑↑↑新冠逝者家属：修正病例是对逝者公正真实的评判谣言五：“中国生产的医疗器械不合格”、“中国帮助其他国家抗疫是为了扩大政治影响力”在全球疫情形势严峻的时刻，中国正在努力满足国际物资的爆炸性需求。然而一些西方媒体却在歪曲中国的行动，盯上“中国制造”的“质量问题”，暗示中国用心险恶。英国《金融时报》3月29日发表了一篇题为《多国拒绝接受中国防疫产品》的文章。文章引用了荷兰卫生部门的说法称，荷兰被迫收回3月21日从中国进口的60万个中国制口罩。” 根据中方有关部门初步调查了解，中方企业发货前已明确告知荷方这批口罩是非医用口罩。Financial Times published the article "Countries reject China pandemic product batches" on March 29. It reported that the Dutch health ministry said it was forced to recall 600,000 face masks shipped from China on March 21 after they were found to be defective. But the Chinese company has told the purchaser that this batch of face masks is for non-medical use. 针对出口质量问题，中国加强了对医疗物资出口质量监管，商务部会同海关总署、国家药监局发布了《关于有序开展医疗物资出口的公告》。中国海关总署和外交部也表示，针对外国商业采购，已推荐了有资质的出口企业。In response to the quality issues, China strengthened quality checks and issued an Order that regulates the exports of coronavirus-related supplies. China’s General Administration of Customs (GAC) and Foreign Ministry also suggested that foreign buyers should purchase from Chinese companies that have government-issued registration certificates.
除了片面报道中国医疗物资出口纠纷，西方媒体还对中国医疗支援进行了一系列政治化解读。中国对其他国家的人道主义援助，也被一些西方媒体解读为“医疗外交”。对此，外交部发言人华春莹表示，这场突如其来的疫情以一种近乎惨烈的方式再次证明人类是命运共同体，面对疫情，没有任何国家可以独善其身，唯有团结合作才能共克时艰。Hua Chunying rejected concerns that China had a political agenda accompanying its medical support. She called for an international corporation to contain the spread of the virus.
