Major Medical Journal Calls For U.S. Leadership To Be Voted Out

The New England Journal of Medicine today published an editorial written by editors condemning the Trump administration for its response to the COVID -19 pandemic and called for the current leadership of the United States to be voted out of office.

Dr. Eric Rubin said, “We rarely publish an editorial signed by all our editors.” The editorial was drafted in August and details how the United States leads the world.

The U.S. leads the world in COVID-19 cases and deaths. So far, more than 7.5 million people in the United States have been diagnosed with COVID-19 and more than 200,000 people have died of the disease.

In the editorial, the editors wrote that, “this crisis has produced a test of leadership. With no good option to combat a novel pathogen, countries were forced to make hard choices about how to respond. Here in the United States our leaders have failed that test. They have taken a cross and turned it into tragedy.”

In a separate issue of the magazine Scientific American, the publication announced that it was endorsing Joe Biden over Donald Trump who the magazine criticized for dismissing science.

When President Trump returned to the Oval Office, he said, “I think this was a blessing from God that I caught it. It was blessing in disguise.”

More than 15 members of Trump’s staff have now tested positive in recent days for the coronavirus.

The whole world is watching what is going on in Washington, DC. People are viewing the White House as “chaotic,” largely because many people are now working remotely.

We are not too sure how President Trump’s health will affect our nation’s future.

           着名刊物表达鲜明立场

英格兰医学杂志今天破例发表社论文章，指责川普政府在新冠疫情之防御工作之失败，非常不寻常的希望选民们做正确的选择。

文章中指出，由于政府之无能， 美国已经有七百五十万人感染，二十万人因而死亡， 造成不可挽救的悲剧。

在此同时，另外一家科技杂誌也為民主党总统候选人拜登背书，并指称川普是反科学的总统。

川普总统今天已重返椭圆式办公室办公，截至目前為止已经有十五位他的亲密助手被确诊，许多白宫官员都在家办公，白宫事实上已经沦陷了。

事实上，美国正处於内忧外患之困境，大选在即，十月十五日之辩论是否可如期举行尚未决定，总统之健康情况亦未明朗，国会紓困议案未决，航空旅游业大裁员，国家前途何去何从 ?

两位副总统在犹他州展开辩论是此次大选之主轴，我们期盼能為国家找到些解决问题之答案。
