據(jù)美國(guó)有線電視新聞網(wǎng)(CNN)報(bào)道,根據(jù)霍普金斯大學(xué)的統(tǒng)計(jì),當(dāng)?shù)貢r(shí)間周六(7日)美國(guó)單日新增了126742例新冠病毒感染病例,又創(chuàng)造了“新高”,連續(xù)三天新增病例超過(guò)12萬(wàn)。
專家們警告未來(lái)幾周這一數(shù)據(jù)可能還會(huì)繼續(xù)上升,呼吁出臺(tái)措施減緩病毒傳播。
在接受美國(guó)消費(fèi)者新聞與商業(yè)頻道(CNBC)采訪時(shí),前美國(guó)食品和藥物管理局局長(zhǎng)斯科特·戈特利布稱:“我們將會(huì)看到感染病例數(shù)量真正地開(kāi)始爆發(fā)。”
他表示,我們可以按照各個(gè)州情況采取有針對(duì)性的減緩措施應(yīng)對(duì)病毒,但是美國(guó)目前并沒(méi)有那么做,這種缺少干預(yù)的情況在未來(lái)會(huì)更加嚴(yán)重,而且會(huì)在12月份和明年1月份帶來(lái)麻煩。
The virus can be dealt with by targeting mitigation state by state, he said, but the US is not doing that currently, and the lack of intervention could build up for the future, spelling trouble for December and January, he said.
北京時(shí)間8日上午,拜登在勝選演講中表示,上任后首要任務(wù)是控制新冠疫情,并于下周任命一個(gè)專家團(tuán)隊(duì)以制定應(yīng)對(duì)新冠疫情的計(jì)劃,該計(jì)劃將從他就任總統(tǒng)的第一天開(kāi)始施行。
然而布朗大學(xué)一位急診科醫(yī)師梅根·蘭尼博士稱,雖然自己對(duì)拜登領(lǐng)導(dǎo)全國(guó)應(yīng)對(duì)疫情的計(jì)劃比較樂(lè)觀,但是等到拜登(2021年1月)就任時(shí),病毒早已經(jīng)在全美的社區(qū)里泛濫成災(zāi)了。
Dr. Megan Ranney, an emergency physician at Brown University, said she's optimistic about Biden's transition plans for leading the country's response, but said the virus will "have already run rampant through communities across the United States" by the time he takes office.
蘭尼博士對(duì)在11月下旬和12月上旬將會(huì)出現(xiàn)的社會(huì)聚集表示擔(dān)憂,她告訴CNN記者稱:“我們正進(jìn)入疫情最嚴(yán)重的時(shí)候。”
她說(shuō):“我們將看到這些小規(guī)模疫情傳播在全國(guó)交叉性地出現(xiàn),這非常像是火上澆油。”
"We're about to see all of these little epidemics across the country, crossed and mixed, and it's going to be an awful lot like pouring gasoline on a fire," she said.
當(dāng)?shù)貢r(shí)間周六,美國(guó)國(guó)家過(guò)敏癥和傳染病研究所所長(zhǎng)安東尼·福奇在一個(gè)
視頻發(fā)言中建議:那些扮演
領(lǐng)導(dǎo)角色的醫(yī)生在提供應(yīng)對(duì)新冠病毒的建議時(shí),請(qǐng)堅(jiān)持科學(xué)、證據(jù)和數(shù)據(jù)。
福奇表示,“請(qǐng)保持完全的非政治化,不要卷入任何政治因素,只要以一名科學(xué)家和醫(yī)生的身份專注于你們的工作。你那樣做了,你就會(huì)沒(méi)事。”
"Stay completely apolitical. Don't get involved in any of the political aspects, and just focus on what your job is as a scientist and a physician," Fauci said. "You do that, you'll be fine."
