特朗普公开批福奇“犯了很多错”!福奇:我两个月没向他汇报了

双语君 中国日报双语新闻 2021-02-27
据美媒报道,近日,美国新冠肺炎确诊病例激增,而白宫却将矛头对准了该国顶级传染病学专家福奇。

As coronavirus cases surge in the United States, the White House is taking aim at the nation's top infectious disease expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci.


CNN:白宫矛头对准福奇,后者与特朗普在病毒问题上分歧日深

一名白宫官员整理了一份福奇发表过的一系列“错误”言论,将其发给了各大媒体。

CNN、NBC等多家媒体转引这名白宫官员11日的话称,“一些白宫官员对于福奇在事情上出错的次数颇为担忧”

In a statement Saturday, a White House official told CNN that "several White House officials are concerned about the number of times Dr. Fauci has been wrong on things."


这名官员提供了一份很长的福奇在疫情早期发表的言论清单,包括其在一月份说过的“这不是一个大的威胁”“无症状感染者不会传染病毒”,以及三月份说过的“人们在外出走动时不用戴口罩”等。

The official provided a lengthy list of past comments by Fauci earlier in the pandemic, including Fauci saying in January that coronavirus was “not a major threat” and “not driven by asymptomatic carriers” and Fauci’s comment in March that “people should not be walking around with masks”.


CNBC称,白宫传播的这份清单与政治候选人经常向媒体散发的关于竞选对手的反对派研究报告(opposition research)有着惊人的相似之处。

The list circulated by the White House bears striking resemblance to the opposition research that political candidates often circulate to the media about their opponents.



NBC在报道中为福奇辩护称,白宫收集的福奇“错误”言论大都是基于当时的有限认知,且获得了政府的认可。

Many of Fauci's assertions called into question by the White House official were based on the best available data at the time and were widely echoed by Trump, other members of the task force and senior White House officials.

这名白宫官员整理的福奇言论是基于早期能够获得的最可靠数据得出的,而且也得到了特朗普、特别工作组的其他成员和白宫高级官员的广泛响应。


特朗普与福奇关系紧张


白宫此举正值特朗普和福奇的紧张关系日益公开化之际。


福奇上周表示,自6月2日以来,他没再见过特朗普本人,至少有两个月没有向他当面通报情况


NBC在报道中表示,近期福奇与特朗普在诸多观点上意见相左,包括美国的抗疫表现、一些州重新开放的决定以及放宽限制的标准等等。


例如,上周福奇在接受采访时就明确表示:

"As a country, when you compare us to other countries, I don't think you can say we're doing great. I mean, we're just not." 

“作为一个国家,当你把我们和其他国家相比,我不认为你可以说我们做得很好。我的意思是,我们就是没有做得很好。”


这与特朗普时常挂在嘴边的“doing great”说法,明显相悖。

6月30日,福奇还说过,若目前的趋势无法扭转,如果未来每日新增确诊病例数达到10万,他也“不会感到惊讶”

In another interview, Fauci responded to the President's claim that "99%" of coronavirus cases in the United States were "totally harmless," saying he didn't know where the President got the number, and suggesting Trump's interpretation was "obviously not the case."

在另一次采访中,福奇回应了特朗普称美国“99%”的冠状病毒病例“完全无害”的说法,他说他不知道总统是从哪里得到这个数字的,并暗示特朗普的解释“显然不对”。


而特朗普也已经开始在国内电视上公开批评福奇了。


特朗普上周称:“福奇博士是个好人,但他犯了很多错误。”("Dr. Fauci is a nice man, but he's made a lot of mistakes.")



《华盛顿邮报》在一篇报道中表示,由于福奇总是站出来对这场大流行病直言不讳地发表观点,白宫因此逐渐排挤他。


福奇近日在接受《金融时报》采访时也说:


I have a reputation, as you probably have figured out, of speaking the truth at all times and not sugar-coating things. And that may be one of the reasons why I haven't been on television very much lately.

你大概已经发现了,我向来只说真话,不会粉饰。这也许是最近电视上不太能看到我的原因之一。


美国网友:为福奇而战!


相关报道发出后,美国网友纷纷发声力挺福奇,并把他挺上了热搜!



他们想要抹黑福奇,我们信任福奇!



他是上面唯一一个愿意告诉我们真相的人。他不会淡化病毒的严重性。


在大流行病蔓延之际,白宫却在攻击福奇这样一名有智慧的医生、一名勤恳的公共卫生官员。



我们必须与福奇站在一起!他正受到白宫的压迫。他是我们的理性和真相之声。他不能从我们的视野中退出。为福奇而战!
