我见 我思 我闻

家庭新冠测试剂上市

拜登政府正式宣布美国国防部及卫生福利部和澳洲药厂合作成功硏发家庭式新冠测试剂即将上市，并将从本月起每月发送十万支到美国，联邦政府已经支付了二亿三千万订金，预计未来将可每月供应一千九百万剂。

这项新的测试剂可以有百分之九十五之準确性， 并且在十五分鐘之内就可得到结果， 并可在手机上显示出来。

美国药品管理局已经批准这项测剂在药店中出售， 这也无疑是对抗新冠病毒之重大胜利。

拜登政府上台以来 以十万火急之速度在拯救失控的疫情，政府中负责医疗之专家每天面对国人作简报， 拜登总统把抵抗疫情之工作都由福其博士為首之专业人士全权负责， 和前任川普截然不同。

福其博士代表美国重返国际卫生组织， 并且和世界各地代表进行着非常频繁的接触， 他说 ：“ 防疫是全球性的共同工作， 我们无法置身事外 ，福其博士也是拯救世界疫情的重要推手， 也表现美国对世界各国之关怀。”

我们非常痛心， 世界及美国之疫情还在不断蔓延， 疫苗之生產远远无法达到需求 ，富国和穷国分配之疫苗可谓天壤之别 ，我们热烈期盼各种新疫苗能大量上市， 来挽救全世界遭遇之浩劫。

At-Home COVID-19 Test Is On The Way

The Biden administration announced Monday that the U.S. federal government is working with the Australian company Ellume to provide more of its fully at-home COVID-19 tests to the United States.

The White House COVID-19 senior advisor Andy Slavitt said, “Ellume has been ramping up manufacturing and will ship 100,000 test kits per month to the U.S.” The award announced Monday provides $231.8 million to Ellume USA for onshore production capacity of the at-home tests for the United States. This will scale up to 19 million test kits per month by the end of the year.

This rapid antigen test sold over the counter can be done at home using a nasal swab, a dropper and processing fluid. The test uses an analyzer that connects with an app on your smartphone and can interpret your results all from the convenience of your home.

Despite the challenges posed by the vaccine rollout, Dr. Anthony Fauci has predicted that the U.S. can vaccinate 60-85 % of all adults by the end of summer which could bring normalcy to the country by the fall.

We are so happy and very much appreciate the new Biden administration making the dramatic effort to try and save lives. We are also hoping that more companies will produce more vaccine to let more people get vaccinated.

Dr. Fauci is leading the U.S delegation back to the World Health Organization (WHO) now. As he said, this pandemic is a worldwide issue, not just for any individual nation. It is only right that we as America, the richest country in the world, should help the whole world to defeat such a horrible pandemic.
