目前新冠病毒源頭尚未查清，而美國總統(tǒng)特朗普近日在社交媒體上公開把新冠病毒稱為“中國病毒”。

對此，中國外交部發(fā)言人耿爽在今天的外交部記者會上表示，近來，美國一些政客把新冠病毒和中國相聯(lián)系，這是對中國搞污名化，我們對此強烈憤慨，堅決反對。

• Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang on Tuesday said that some US politicians' connection of the novel coronavirus with China is stigmatization, which China strongly condemns and firmly opposes.

• He made the remark when asked to respond to United States President Donald Trump's earlier tweet that referred to COVID-19 as "Chinese virus".

世界衛(wèi)生組織和國際社會明確反對將病毒同特定國家、地區(qū)相聯(lián)系，反對搞污名化。我們敦促美方立即糾正錯誤，并停止對中國的無端指責。

• "We urge the US side immediately to correct its mistake and stop groundless accusations of China," he said, noting that the World Health Organization and the international community have explicitly opposed connecting the virus with a certain country or region.

當前，新冠肺炎疫情在全球多點暴發(fā)、擴散、蔓延，當務(wù)之急是國際社會齊心開展抗疫合作。美國應(yīng)當首先做好自己的事情，同時為抗疫國際合作、維護全球公共衛(wèi)生安全發(fā)揮建設(shè)性作用。

• Given that the epidemic is spreading across the world, Geng said the top priority now is cooperation in combating the virus.

• The US should mind its own business first and meanwhile play a constructive role in international epidemic cooperation and safeguard global public health safety, he added.
