随着美国各州重新开放经济,一些地区的新冠肺炎病例重新开始增加。美国传染病专家安东尼·福奇近日表示,人们一直在谈论第二波疫情,但实际上美国第一波疫情尚未结束。 Co-director of the intensive care unit at CommonSpirit's Dignity Health California Hospital Medical Center, Dr. Zafia Anklesaria, 35, who is seven months pregnant, attends to a COVID-19 patient in the hospital where she works, during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak, in Los Angeles, California, US, May 18, 2020.

In The Wall Street Journal last week, Vice President Mike Pence wrote in a piece headlined “There Isn’t a Coronavirus ‘Second Wave'” that the nation is winning the fight against the virus. 美国副总统迈克·彭斯上周在《华尔街日报》发表了一篇题为《美国不存在“第二波”新冠疫情》的文章称,美国就要取得抗击新冠病毒斗争的胜利了。 Many public health experts, however, suggest it’s no time to celebrate. About 120,000 Americans have died from the new virus and daily counts of new cases in the US are the highest they’ve been in more than a month, driven by alarming recent increases in the South and West. |
