Australia has almost eliminated the coronavirus — by putting faith in science

通過(guò)對(duì)科學(xué)的信任，澳大利亞幾乎消滅了冠狀病毒

The nation of 26 million is close to eliminating community tranSmission of the coronavirus, having defeated a second wave just as infections surge again in Europe and the United States.

這個(gè)擁有2600萬(wàn)人口的國(guó)家已接近消除冠狀病毒的社區(qū)傳播，在歐洲和美國(guó)再次出現(xiàn)感染激增之際，該國(guó)已經(jīng)戰(zhàn)勝了第二波疫情。

No cases were reported on the island continent Thursday, and only seven since Saturday, besides travelers in hotel quarantine. Eighteen patients are hospitalized with covid-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus. One is in an intensive care unit. Melbourne, the main hotbed of Australia's outbreak which recently emerged from lockdown, has not reported a case since Oct. 30.

周四，沒(méi)有報(bào)告出現(xiàn)新的病例，自周六以來(lái)，除了在酒店被隔離的游客外，只有7例新增病例。18名患者因冠狀病毒引起的新冠肺炎住院治療。其中一個(gè)在重癥監(jiān)護(hù)室。墨爾本是澳大利亞爆發(fā)疫情的主要城市，最近才剛剛擺脫封鎖，但自10月30日以來(lái)一直沒(méi)有報(bào)告出現(xiàn)新的病例

"I never thought we would really get to zero, which is amazing," said Sharon Lewin, the Melbourne-based director of the Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity, which provided forecasts in February that formed the basis of the Australian government's response. "I've been going out nonstop, booking restaurants, shopping, getting my nails done and my hair cut."

“我從沒(méi)想過(guò)我們會(huì)真的達(dá)到零感染，這太神奇了，”墨爾本彼得·多爾蒂感染與免疫研究所主任莎倫·盧因說(shuō)，該機(jī)構(gòu)在2月份提供了預(yù)測(cè)，并以此作為澳大利亞政府作出回應(yīng)的依據(jù)?！拔乙恢痹诓煌５赝獬?，預(yù)訂餐廳，購(gòu)物，修指甲，剪頭發(fā)?！?/p>

As North America, Europe, India, Brazil and other regions and countries struggle to bring tens of thousands of daily infections under control, Australia provides a real-time road map for democracies to manage the pandemic. Its experience, along with New Zealand's, also shows that success in containing the virus isn't limited to East Asian states.

在北美、歐洲、印度、巴西和其他地區(qū)和國(guó)家努力控制每天數(shù)以萬(wàn)計(jì)的感染之際，澳大利亞為民主國(guó)家管理這一流行病提供了實(shí)時(shí)路線圖。澳大利亞和新西蘭的經(jīng)驗(yàn)也表明，成功遏制病毒的不僅限于東亞國(guó)家

Perhaps most importantly, though, leaders from across the ideological spectrum persuaded Australians to take the pandemic seriously early on and prepared them to give up civil liberties they had never lost before, even during two world wars.

然而，也許最重要的是，來(lái)自不同意識(shí)形態(tài)的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人說(shuō)服澳大利亞人及早認(rèn)真對(duì)待疫情，并讓他們做好放棄公民自由的準(zhǔn)備，即使在兩次世界大戰(zhàn)期間，他們也從未失去過(guò)公民自由。

"Regardless of who you vote for, most Australians would agree their leaders have a real care for their constituents and a following of science," McLaws said. "I think that helped dramatically."

“不管你投給誰(shuí)，大多數(shù)澳大利亞人都會(huì)同意，他們的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人真正關(guān)心他們的選民，并奉行科學(xué)，” 姆利基說(shuō)?！拔艺J(rèn)為這起了很大的作用?！?br>

評(píng)論翻譯

Peter Baxendale-Thomas
It's seasonality. Just like in Europe we nearly eliminated it in the summer. And in northern USA the same. Tropical places not so much.
Lockdowns have nothing to do with it.

這是季節(jié)性的。就像在歐洲，我們?cè)谙奶鞄缀跸麥缌怂?。在美?guó)北部也是如此。熱帶地區(qū)就不是這樣了。與封鎖無(wú)關(guān)。

Paulkaz
That wouldn’t explain why hot India and tropical Brazil have drastic infection rates? Europe and USA didn’t lockdown enough to eliminate the virus. It took Victoria 3 months of hard oppressive restraint to succeed. An amazing effort that saved the rest of us Australians.

這不能解釋為什么炎熱的印度和熱帶的巴西的感染率如此之高? 歐洲和美國(guó)沒(méi)有采取足夠的措施消除病毒。維多利亞用了3個(gè)月的艱苦壓抑才成功。了不起的努力拯救了我們澳大利亞人。

Carrie
The facts prove otherwise. We were in hard lockdown right throughout the bitter cold of winter (yes it gets cold in the southern states of Aus!). Lockdown works. It saved lives. Australia is proof.

事實(shí)證明并非如此。整個(gè)嚴(yán)冬，我們都被牢牢地鎖在里面(是的，南部的澳斯州也變冷了!)封鎖工作。它挽救了生命。澳大利亞證明了這一點(diǎn)。

Elizabeth Grey
Hmmm... I lived it. And I think you are wrong. Lockdowns work - If you do them and don't keep sneaking out to break the rules. We pretty much did stay home & only went out for the basics of exercise, food & care giving. We eliminated in the winter... We did it twice in Victoria.

嗯…我住在那邊。我認(rèn)為你錯(cuò)了。封鎖是有效的——如果你這么做了，而且不經(jīng)常溜出去打破規(guī)則的話。我們大部分時(shí)間都呆在家里，只出去做一些基本的鍛煉、買一些食物。我們?cè)诙煜麥缌瞬《尽?/p>

We in Australia have not yet experienced it in Summer. Started in Autumn, went to through winter spring.
Brazil which is pretty warm all year round had a high rate of cases.

我們?cè)诎拇罄麃嗊€沒(méi)有經(jīng)歷過(guò)夏天。從秋天開始，過(guò)了冬天到春天。
巴西全年都很溫暖，所以病例率很高。

and your qualifications on epidemiology, virology, public health and chronic diseases come from where?

你在流行病學(xué)，病毒學(xué)，公共衛(wèi)生和慢性病方面的資歷來(lái)自哪里?

Michelle Scragg
It's not summer in Australia, it's Spring. Lockdowns, isolation, hygiene, distancing, all contribute to why we are doing so well...oh and we seem to be mostly a bit more intelligent

澳大利亞現(xiàn)在不是夏天，是春天。封鎖、隔離、衛(wèi)生、保持距離，所有這些都是我們做得這么好的原因…對(duì)了，我們似乎更聰明一點(diǎn)

Rohanct
Climate plays a Small part. Parts of Australia (TaSmania) get as cold as some European countries. The main advantage Australia has is strong borders & relative population density

氣候只是其中一小部分。澳大利亞部分地區(qū)(塔斯馬尼亞)和一些歐洲國(guó)家一樣冷。澳大利亞的主要優(yōu)勢(shì)是強(qiáng)大的邊界和相對(duì)的人口密度

I’ll introduce you to an Australian saying: “Yeaaaaah-nah.”
We got this down with rules, faith in science and a lotta resilience WELL before the weather changed.
Not to mention the latency of the virus meant we had it nailed down, what, about 2 weeks before cases hit zero.

我將向你介紹一句澳大利亞諺語(yǔ):“Yeaaaaah-nah。”
早在天氣變化之前，我們就已經(jīng)用規(guī)則、對(duì)科學(xué)的信任和很強(qiáng)的適應(yīng)力來(lái)解決了這個(gè)問(wèn)題。
更不用提病毒的潛伏期，這意味著我們已經(jīng)確定了，大約兩周后，病例數(shù)為零。

Temlei
Mate I am in Australian and this ain't even close to summer. Please learn more about the world

伙計(jì)，我在澳大利亞，現(xiàn)在還沒(méi)到夏天呢。請(qǐng)多了解這個(gè)世界。

What has happened in Australia has only happened due to closure of international borders & quarantining of every person who steps onto our soil. Victoria screwed up because we have a corrupt fascist govt here & they purposefully created a 'second wave'.

澳大利亞所發(fā)生的一切只是因?yàn)閲?guó)際邊界的關(guān)閉和對(duì)每一個(gè)踏上我們土地的人的隔離。維多利亞搞砸了，因?yàn)檫@里有一個(gè)腐敗的法西斯政府，他們故意制造了“第二波疫情”。

Greg Latham
I seem to remember recently that hundreds of passengers were allowed to disembark from a covid19 riddled passenger liner called the Ruby Princess.
So much for the "quarantining of every person who steps on to our soil.

我似乎記得最近數(shù)百名乘客被允許從一艘被covid19病毒感染的客輪上下來(lái)，這艘客輪名為“紅寶石公主”。
“對(duì)每一個(gè)踏上我們土地的人進(jìn)行隔離”的說(shuō)法到此為止。

Vinovino
We were in strict lockdown for months, wear masks & have restrictions on how many people we’re allowed in our home. All that said, I’m super grateful not to be living in fear Covid every time I leave the house now. We can go out and enjoy the reward of our hard work in peace

我們被嚴(yán)格禁閉了好幾個(gè)月，戴著口罩，并對(duì)家里允許的人數(shù)有限制。話雖如此，我還是很慶幸現(xiàn)在每次離開家都不用生活在恐懼中。我們可以平靜地走出去，享受我們辛勤工作的回報(bào)

Tick
And you have hit the nail on the head. The economy will fare much better if people don’t fear having to leave their house. Short term pain for long term gain.

你說(shuō)到點(diǎn)子上了。如果人們不用擔(dān)心不得不出門，經(jīng)濟(jì)狀況會(huì)好得多。短期的痛苦換來(lái)長(zhǎng)期的收獲。

Sue Jay
We did. It was hard but we put people and science first. We just came thru our winter and now 0 cases because we did the right thing.

這很難，但我們把人和科學(xué)放在第一位。我們剛剛度過(guò)了冬天，現(xiàn)在沒(méi)有病例，因?yàn)槲覀冏隽苏_的事情。

DeeCee
The inclination of the Federal Gov vs the State Gov’s meant Australia got the balance between health and economy right. It’s a pity miSmanagement in Victoria let the rest of the country down.

聯(lián)邦政府和州政府的傾向意味著澳大利亞在健康和經(jīng)濟(jì)之間取得了正確的平衡。很遺憾，維多利亞州管理不善，令全國(guó)其他地區(qū)失望。

lpse Dixit
We did it with no help from our useless Prime Minister who pushed to stay open. Instead we listened to ou state Premier and Chief Health Officer who put health before dollars.

我們沒(méi)有得到推動(dòng)開放的無(wú)用的首相的幫助。相反，我們聽取了州總理和首席衛(wèi)生官員的講話，他們將健康置于金錢之上。

Kenneth Ng Mendez
Hahaha health before dollar you think those fines are for health. Nope, they’re taxes so politicians can get more money. Government always wins and they’re getting more money.

哈哈，健康先于美元，你以為這些罰款是為了健康。不，它們是稅收，政客們可以得到更多的錢。政府總是贏，他們得到了更多的錢。

Jamie
You mean by closing our borders and locking us in our houses.
Our government has gone into so much debt our grandchildren will be paying it off.

你的意思是關(guān)閉我們的邊境，把我們鎖在我們的房子里。我們的政府欠了這么多債，我們的子孫將會(huì)還清。

Geometric
No thanks to our Prime Minister Scott Morrison and his right-wing Federal Government.

不用感謝我們的總理斯科特·莫里森和他的右翼聯(lián)邦政府。

The Victorian State Premier,
saved Australia, despite the efforts of the Federal Government, Conservative Politicians & the Rupert Murdoch dominated media to deny the science.

盡管聯(lián)邦政府做出了努力，保守的政客和魯珀特·默多克還是控制了媒體，否認(rèn)這一科學(xué)。

MJ
For those saying ‘a(chǎn)t what cost’, do you not realise it means we can open up our economy sooner and close to 100% giving us a net benefit vs the rest of the world. We went hard, quickly so we can open up hard and quickly.

對(duì)于那些說(shuō)“要付出什么代價(jià)”的人，難道你們沒(méi)有意識(shí)到這意味著我們可以更快地開放我們的經(jīng)濟(jì)，并使我們比世界其他國(guó)家獲得接近100%的凈收益嗎?我們快速努力，所以我們可以快速地開放經(jīng)濟(jì)。

Rhiannon Smith
Our Prime Minister and federal govt was completely useless and actively tried to hinder suppression efforts. The victory goes to the state premiers/govts who got control and kept control. We are only here because of them, as well as the work of citizens over months and months.

我們的總理和聯(lián)邦政府完全沒(méi)用，還積極地阻撓抑制努力。勝利屬于控制和保持控制的州長(zhǎng)/政府。我們能站在這里完全是因?yàn)樗麄?，也因?yàn)楣駛償?shù)月來(lái)的努力。

Its wasn’t the federal govt that help control the virus apart from-closing all incoming and outgoing travel. the credit should goto the state leaders especially Dan Andrews from Victoria.

并不是聯(lián)邦政府幫助控制病毒——關(guān)閉所有入境和出境的旅行。這應(yīng)該歸功于州領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人，尤其是來(lái)自維多利亞的丹·安德魯斯。

Sher Campbell
It was the work done by the Premiers of the States. The Right Wing Federal Government criticised from the sidelines aided and abetted by the Murdoch Press. Thank goodness we believe in science and not snake oil saleSman.

這是各州的州長(zhǎng)們所做的工作。右翼聯(lián)邦政府在場(chǎng)外批評(píng)，得到默多克媒體的支持和慫恿。謝天謝地，我們相信科學(xué)，而不是騙人的。

澳大利亞應(yīng)該感謝丹·安德魯斯和他的團(tuán)隊(duì)，盡管默多克的媒體和我們的總理和財(cái)政部長(zhǎng)努力破壞我們的努力，他們還是堅(jiān)持了自己的路線。讓我們問(wèn)問(wèn)那些人關(guān)于(可避免的)養(yǎng)老院死亡的問(wèn)題。

NO thanks to our federal govt who wr worse than useless. All thanks in Australia go to our fabulous state Premiers (like your Governors) who followed the scientist's recommendations and the vast majority of people saw sense and followed the directives.

不用感謝我們的聯(lián)邦政府，他們比沒(méi)用還糟。在澳大利亞，所有的感謝都要?dú)w功于我們出色的州長(zhǎng)們(就像你們的州長(zhǎng)們一樣)，他們聽從了科學(xué)家的建議，而絕大多數(shù)人認(rèn)識(shí)了這個(gè)道理，聽從了指示。

Eric Leotta
With all the comments on here bagging the feds I wonder how far the states would have gone without all the support packages the federal government supplied? State premiers were able to do what they did riding on the shoulders of the federal government.

我想知道如果沒(méi)有聯(lián)邦政府提供的所有支持計(jì)劃，這些州能走多遠(yuǎn)?在聯(lián)邦政府的支持下，各州州長(zhǎng)可以為所欲為。

Eric Neil Koenig
And they've eliminated mass shootings by buying back people's guns and making it tougher to get their hands on one so one needs a permit to use one and it can only be temporary.

他們通過(guò)回購(gòu)人們的槍支，讓他們更難拿到槍支，從而消除了大規(guī)模槍擊事件，所以人們需要許可證才能使用槍支，而且這只能是暫時(shí)的。

maude fealy
Yep. Feel very safe sending the kids to school here and we are pretty much over the coronavirus here. Been a tough year but it’s paid off dividends!!

是的。把孩子送到這里上學(xué)很安全，而且我們這里已經(jīng)遠(yuǎn)離了冠狀病毒。這是艱難的一年，但它得到了回報(bào)!!

Craig B
No thanks to the conservative Australian Fedetal Government.the credit must go the States..in particular Victoria.

多虧了保守的澳大利亞聯(lián)邦政府。這得歸功于各州。尤其是維多利亞州

Carolyn Paynting
It was our state governments who saved us. The federal government was trying to bully them into opening up to save the economy. Our state Premiers chose to save our lives instead.
The federal government closed the international border and gave financial support.

是州政府救了我們。聯(lián)邦政府試圖脅迫他們開放以拯救經(jīng)濟(jì)。我們的州長(zhǎng)選擇拯救我們的生命。聯(lián)邦政府關(guān)閉了國(guó)際邊界并提供了財(cái)政支持。

Cheryl
We are coming into summer. Wait until we open the borders and winter is upon us. The WuFlu will be back. Being holed up in Victoria, I am sick of living like I have leprosy. This is not living!

我們即將進(jìn)入夏季。等我們打開邊境，冬天就來(lái)了。流感會(huì)回來(lái)的。我住在維多利亞，厭倦了像麻風(fēng)病一樣的生活。這不是生活!

RelsBels
We are indebted to our Premiers (Governors in US) & state govts who listened to the science & took measures to protect us. The Prime Minister & the fed govt did nothing but try to discredit them & create division.

我們感謝我們的州長(zhǎng)和州政府，他們傾聽科學(xué)并采取措施來(lái)保護(hù)我們。總理和聯(lián)邦政府什么也沒(méi)做，只是試圖敗壞他們的名聲，制造分歧。

Wayne Griffin
We are lucky we are an island, we trust our governments, we are educated, we can be compliant with rules and regulations and we are inclusive. Only countries with general compliance with rules are successful.

幸運(yùn)的是，我們是一個(gè)島國(guó)，我們信任我們的政府，我們受過(guò)教育，我們能夠遵守規(guī)章制度，我們具有包容性。只有普遍遵守規(guī)則的國(guó)家是成功的。

We did what we needed to at the start and we did well. My state had 6 deaths total. My life pretty much went back to normal within about three months of the start.

我們?cè)谝婚_始就做了我們需要做的，我們做得很好。在開始的三個(gè)月里我的州有6人死亡，我的生活基本上恢復(fù)了正常。

Don’t give Morrison and Hunt any credit. Thank the state premiers that stood their ground and refused to be bullied by the PM and his ministers trying to undermine their efforts.

不要給莫里森和亨特任何榮譽(yù)。感謝那些堅(jiān)持立場(chǎng)，拒絕被首相和試圖破壞他們努力的部長(zhǎng)們欺負(fù)的州長(zhǎng)們。

Jonathon Nunan
It is super important to understand that it was due to the pro activiSm and stead fastness of the state governments, that Australia got on top of Covid. The federal government can take little, if any real credit.

非常重要的是，要明白，正是由于州政府的積極行動(dòng)和堅(jiān)定立場(chǎng)，澳大利亞才控制住了疫情。聯(lián)邦政府幾乎不可能獲得任何真正的信貸。
