Coronavirus Diary

               Nation Is Open For Business

 The first tropical storm named Arthur has formed off the Florida coast last Saturday. It is the first tropical storm of the 2020 hurricane season since last weekend most of the nation is open for business.

Americans in many states can now go get a haircut, go to the gym and sit down in a restaurant with some restrictions, but medical health experts still worry whether we have opened up too soon.

So far, 1.5 million Americans have tested positive for COVID-19 and more than 90,000 people have died from it. In Texas we have recorded the highest single day increase over the last weekend, but Governor Abbott has attributed it to more testing.

Texas restaurants, movie theatres and malls have been open now for more than two weeks.

As the nation is opening back up for business, we really need get prepared for a second wave of coronavirus to come back.

We as a nation have never suffered so much before as we have in this pandemic. When the schools are closed, millions of students stay at home and not only in the summer. The Cal State University system today announced that the whole campus will be closed for the coming semester leaving one-half million students to study at home.

Health and Human Service Secretary Alex Azar said on Sunday that more than 10 million people have been tested for the coronavirus so far and the federal government plans to deploy rapid testing to meatpacking facilities and nursing homes.

 We want to strongly urge the local and federal governments to expedite delivery of the testing kits to all the general public. We also need the CDC’s scientific independence and experienced voice to lead and guide the country during this time of national public health emergency.


       疫情政治化 国之不幸

今年笫一个飓风艾德上週六已在佛罗里达海岸形成,这是2020年最新的一个风暴。

从上週末以来,美国各大小城镇已局部开放商业活动,人们可以去理髮,上健身房,到餐厅用餐 ,但是医疗卫生专家仍然表示极度之担心,疫情风暴可能捲土重来。

目前为止,全国已经有一百五十万人碓诊,已有九万人失去生命,这是多麽恐佈之数字啊。

德州在上週末之确诊人数也激增近二千人,州长艾伯特认为是我们增加了许多测试人口,不过,德州是全美开放解封的最早一个州。

加州州立大学系统已经宣佈在夏秋两季学生不到校区上课,全国各地之中小学也无法参加夏令营 ,整个国家之教育体系面临停摆。

卫生部长艾塞週日表示,有一千万国民目前已接受测试,政府将会把测试剂优先发放给屠宰场工作人员及老人院。

我们觉得这些措施还是来得太慢,政府动员能力还是令人质疑,我们还是建议把防疫工作全权交给国家疾管防治中心来处理,专家们提出专业意见,决不能把疫情政治化,是国家之不幸也。
