2400万?!美疾控中心主任:美国实际感染新冠人数或是目前10倍

CGTN 2020-08-24


美国的新冠疫情仍在持续恶化,多州疫情出现反弹。美国有线电视新闻网(CNN)援引约翰斯·霍普金斯大学的疫情数据显示美国新冠肺炎确诊病例已经超过240万例,25日更是创下逾3.7万单日新增确诊病例数新高


The United States saw a record number of new coronavirus cases in a single day, with 37,077 reported Thursday, CNN reported, citing Johns Hopkins University's tally. The country's case total exceeds 2.4 million.

美国疾控中心主任罗伯特·雷德菲尔德预计,美国感染新冠病毒的实际人数可能是当前确诊人数的10倍。这表明许多没有症状的人已经或曾经感染了新冠病毒。《华盛顿邮报》指出,按照雷德菲尔德的预估,美国可能有至少2400万人已经感染了新冠病毒


雷德菲尔德的预测基于对美国各地血液样本进行的血清学检测。根据检测结果,雷德菲尔德注意到,确诊的新病例正趋于年轻化一名美国官员表示,佛罗里达州和得克萨斯州新报告的病例中,大约有一半在35岁以下,其中许多是无症状的。


More than 20 million Americans could have contracted the coronavirus, 10 times more than official counts, indicating many people without symptoms have or have had the disease, the head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said Thursday.


CDC Director Robert Redfield's estimate, based on serology testing used to determine the presence of antibodies that show whether an individual has had the disease, indicated that “younger people are the leading edge of that transmission. ”

最近几周,美国至少30个州疫情出现反弹,其中加利福利亚州、得克萨斯州和佛罗里达州这三个人口最多的州确诊数激增,单日新增确诊数达到了疫情暴发以来的最高值。


为此,多州冻结重启计划。得州是最早放松防疫限制的地方之一,该州于5月1日开始第一阶段重启,仅一个月时间就已进入了第三阶段,确诊病例数也大幅增长。州州长阿博特25日宣布暂停进一步的重启计划,旨在控制住疫情。此外,俄勒冈州、路易斯安那州和堪萨斯州也都已宣布将暂停重启计划。


加州州长纽森25日宣布,该州正面临预算紧急状态。加州26日新增确诊人数虽较前一日有所下降,但重症患者数仍在攀升,重症监护室的使用率也较前一日增加了。加州迪士尼乐园原定于7月17日重新开放,但受疫情反弹影响,重新开园的日期继续延迟。



Redfield's words came as at least 30 states experienced a rebound in COVID-19 cases, with the three most populous states – California, Texas, and Florida –  setting records for new cases daily.


Amid regional spikes, some states have paused their reopening plans. Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced on Thursday that his state would pause its reopening following "an explosion" of new COVID-19 cases. Several other states, including Oregon, Louisiana, and Kansas, have also announced they will put reopening plans on hold.


In California, Governor Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, declared a budget emergency due to the pandemic. Nearly 5,350 people in the state tested positive for the coronavirus in the past 24 hours, fewer than Wednesday's record of 7,149. But the number of Californians becoming very ill has continued to rise, using about 34 percent of the available intensive care beds in the state, up from 29 percent on Wednesday.

美国多州确诊病例激增,再一次折射出美国国内对特朗普政府抗疫不力的不满情绪


美国前副总统、民主党总统候选人拜登25日在宾夕法尼亚州的一场演讲中提到,现任总统特朗普在面对新冠疫情时只会“抱怨和自怜”,像一个小孩子。

同一日,美国国会下属审计机构政府问责局发布报告,称美国政府应对新冠疫情的多方面措施均显示其准备不足。


报告指出,截至5月31日,特朗普政府在未经严格审查的情况下,误将近100多万笔价值14亿美元(约合人民币99亿元)的新冠疫情救助金发放给了已经去世的纳税人,此举再次引发众怒。


有网友评论称:

3000多万美国人仍未收到救助金。你知道谁收到了吗?已经去世的人。活着的人尚在挣扎,而14亿美元却给了死去的人。你没法把事情搞得更糟糕了。


还有网友评论道:

特朗普政府是美国历史上最无能和最腐败的一届政府。


A U.S. government watchdog gave a blunt review of the shortcomings in the government’s response to the pandemic on Thursday that included the sending of nearly 1.4 billion dollars to deceased Americans, and the collection of incomplete and inconsistent virus-testing data.

The report issued by the Government Accountability Office marked the first review of the government’s response to the coronavirus pandemic and made recommendations to lawmakers on how to improve the fight to come out of the crisis.
