美國確診超百萬,這次誰來“接鍋”?

美國確診超百萬,這次誰來“接鍋”?

28日,美國新冠肺炎確診病例累計超過了100萬。


當天美國總統特朗普出席新聞發佈會,並在回答記者關於美國新冠肺炎確診病例超百萬的問題時,將美國病例數量大的現狀歸因於“我們的檢測數量比別國高得多”


同時,這位總統依然對疫情的發展保持樂觀:“它(病例數)最終會降為0的。”


U.S. President Donald Trump said on Tuesday the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in the U.S. “will go down to zero ultimately.” He was responding to a CNN reporter who asked about the number of cases in the U.S. crossing the one million mark.


“So, we’re going to show more cases because we’re doing much, much more testing – double anybody else,” Trump added. “And it will be – at the appropriate time, it will be down to zero like we said.”


然後,再一次地,他為政府的抗疫不力找到了“接鍋俠”。


特朗普稱,許多優秀的專家曾認為疫情不會影響到美國與歐洲,所以政府聽從了專家的建議,但專家們搞錯了,很多人都搞錯了,很多人都沒有想到疫情會如此嚴重。


“Experts – very good experts, very good people too – said this would never affect the United States, it wouldn’t affect Europe, it wouldn’t affect anything outside of China. So we were listening to experts, and we will always listen to experts, but the experts got it wrong. A lot of people got it wrong, and a lot of people had no idea it would be this serious.”


希拉里:美國現在“沒有一位真正的總統”在應對新冠疫情


特朗普的“好心態”保持起來可不容易。


自特朗普在24日的白宮疫情發佈會上澄清“消毒劑洗肺論” 意在嘲諷現場記者之後,白宮的新冠疫情發佈會已停開4日。而此前由於發佈會冗長甚至出現“誤導”信息,多家美國電臺取消了直播。

《紐約時報》在《特朗普如何度過“被困”白宮的每一天》文章中描述,特朗普最近常因看電視而情緒不佳——“不管總統調到哪個臺,都看不到幫他說話的人。就連福克斯這個以往讓他倍感安慰的臺現在也讓人生氣,因為他們對自己的描繪與他的期望不符。”


“The president sees few allies no matter which channel he clicks. He is angry even with Fox, an old security blanket, for not portraying him as he would like to be seen. And he makes time to watch Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo’s briefings from New York, closely monitoring for a sporadic compliment or snipe.”


一邊是輿論針對自己“抗疫不力”的批評,另一邊有競爭對手“虎視眈眈”。


當地時間28日,在由美國前副總統、民主黨總統候選人喬·拜登主持的一場主題為“新冠疫情對女性影響”的會議上,前國務卿希拉里·克林頓表示,美國現在“沒有一位真正的總統”在應對新冠疫情。


她說,在此次疫情危機中,美國需要的 “不是一個僅僅在電視上扮演總統的人”,而是一個“每天早晨醒來,都會為自己所領導的人民而擔憂的人”。


同時,希拉里宣佈支持拜登競選美國總統,稱拜登可以幫助引導美國擺脫新冠疫情危機。

美國民眾值得擁有一位有同情心、有才能、且尊重科學的總統來應對疫情。我們需要科學來拯救生命、復甦經濟。


Joe Biden, former U.S. vice president and Democratic presidential candidate, hosted a town hall on April 28 where former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said the U.S. needs a “real president.”


“Not just somebody who plays one on TV, but somebody who gets up every morning, worried about the people that he is responsible for leading during this crisis,” she added.


She endorsed Joe Biden to be the U.S. president, saying he has the compassion and competence to lead the country out of the coronavirus crisis.


福奇:新冠病毒定會捲土重來


4月28日,華盛頓經濟俱樂部(Economic Club of Washington)舉辦了一場視頻會議,第一個被採訪的就是美國首席傳染病專家安東尼·福奇。


當被問及今年晚些時候是否會有第二波新冠肺炎疫情來襲時,福奇表示,“在我看來,新冠病毒會不可避免的捲土重來。”他提示,“新冠病毒不會從地球上消失。”


當談到重啟經濟的措施時,福奇強調,“如果過早地或者不成功地重啟了經濟,我們可能面臨失控的局面,疫情可能會反彈到幾周前的狀況。因此我們必須十分謹慎,才能從封鎖狀態過渡到某種程度的正常狀態。”


White House health adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci on Tuesday warned of the coronavirus' return during an interview with The Economic Club of Washington.


"In my mind, it's inevitable that we will have a return of the virus, or maybe even that it never went away," he said, adding that the U.S. "could be in for a bad fall" if effective treatments were not found by then to fight the virus.


Fauci also warned against the reopening of businesses, saying that premature and unsuccessful measures might lead to a rebound of the coronavirus outbreak.


“重啟經濟不能過早”,對於特朗普來說大概不會是容易接受的建議。


4月16日,特朗普宣佈將分三階段重啟美國經濟。對此福奇曾強調,重啟經濟的核心是保證公眾安全


但17日,特朗普連發三條推文支持民眾反抗當地的封城措施和居家令。19日,全美多地爆發遊行示威,數千人走上街頭要求解除禁令儘快復工。

28日,美國北卡羅來納州的一群抗議者第三次聚集在該州首府羅利市市中心抗議政府的居家令。而就在26日,該示威活動的組織者之一被確診新冠,就在兩週前她曾參加了另一場遊行。


這又是專家的錯嗎?
