????????最擔(dān)心的事情還是發(fā)生了。

????????據(jù)美國(guó)消費(fèi)者新聞與商業(yè)頻道（CNBC）6月2日消息，美國(guó)明尼蘇達(dá)州國(guó)民警衛(wèi)隊(duì)出現(xiàn)新冠肺炎確診病例。

????????一位發(fā)言人周二告訴CNBC，在1名國(guó)民警衛(wèi)隊(duì)人員確診感染新冠病毒，另有9人出現(xiàn)癥狀后，明尼蘇達(dá)州國(guó)民警衛(wèi)隊(duì)計(jì)劃對(duì)其所有部署人員進(jìn)行新冠病毒檢測(cè)。

• The Minnesota National Guard plans to test all of its deployed members for the coronavirus after one tested positive and nine others have reported symptoms, a spokesman told CNBC on Tuesday.

????????發(fā)言人斯科特·霍克斯稱，為應(yīng)對(duì)喬治·弗洛伊德死亡引發(fā)的大規(guī)?？棺h活動(dòng)，該州國(guó)民警衛(wèi)隊(duì)已部署了近7,000名警官。

• The state’s National Guard has deployed nearly 7,000 officers in response to mass protests sparked by George Floyd’s death, caused by a Minneapolis police officer who knelt on the unarmed black man’s neck for nearly nine minutes, according to spokesman Scott Hawks.

????????目前還不清楚確診隊(duì)員何時(shí)檢測(cè)呈陽性，以及他與其他隊(duì)員和民眾的互動(dòng)程度。

• It’s unclear when the infected service member tested positive and how much interaction they had with other service members and the public.

美專家：

催淚瓦斯和胡椒噴霧會(huì)加劇病毒傳播

????????隨著抗議示威活動(dòng)不斷蔓延，許多未戴口罩的警察和抗議者發(fā)生沖突，引發(fā)了美國(guó)公共衛(wèi)生專家對(duì)新冠病毒傳播的擔(dān)憂。

????????據(jù)《紐約時(shí)報(bào)》報(bào)道，衛(wèi)生專家表示，大喊大叫和唱歌可以增加飛沫的噴射距離；密集人群也增加了傳播的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。

• ... yelling, shouting and singing can increase how far those droplets are projected. Crowds also increase the risk of transmission.?

????????此外，警方采取的策略也會(huì)增加感染的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，比如向人群噴灑催淚瓦斯而導(dǎo)致的咳嗽，將抗議者集中到較小的區(qū)域以控制人群，以及將被捕者安置在公共汽車、面包車和拘留室中。

• Police tactics such as spraying tear gas — which causes people to cough — herding protesters into smaller areas for crowd control and placing arrested individuals in buses, vans and holding cells also increase the risk of infection.

????????《紐約時(shí)報(bào)》稱，由于暴露于病毒和出現(xiàn)癥狀之間的時(shí)間有所延遲，因此抗議活動(dòng)對(duì)病毒傳播的影響將在幾周后才能得知。但是流行病學(xué)家說，抗議活動(dòng)幾乎肯定會(huì)導(dǎo)致更多的病例。

• Because of delays between exposure to the virus and symptoms, the effects of the protests on the spread of the virus will not be known for several weeks. But epidemiologists said the protests would almost certainly lead to more cases.

美官員擔(dān)憂抗議可能引發(fā)第二波疫情

????????據(jù)美聯(lián)社報(bào)道，在發(fā)生了大規(guī)?？棺h的幾個(gè)城市，雖然新冠病例數(shù)量和死亡人數(shù)呈下降趨勢(shì)，但在這些地方感染病毒并具有傳播能力的人數(shù)仍然很高。

• While case numbers and deaths have been trending down in several of the cities where the largest protests have occurred, the number of people in those places infected with the virus — and with the ability to spread it — remains high.

????????在一些社區(qū)，如明尼阿波利斯，因新冠肺炎而住院的人數(shù)一直在上升。

• And in some of the communities, such as Minneapolis, the number of people hospitalized with COVID-19 has been rising.

????????目前已有多名疫情重災(zāi)區(qū)官員對(duì)疫情表示擔(dān)憂。

????????紐約州州長(zhǎng)科莫6月1日表示，他很擔(dān)心紐約市的大規(guī)模游行示威活動(dòng)會(huì)讓之前費(fèi)盡心力取得的抗疫成果功虧一簣。

????????擁擠的人群破壞了數(shù)月來的社交距離，科莫對(duì)這種場(chǎng)景表示惋惜，稱可能有數(shù)百人已經(jīng)感染了病毒。

• New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo bemoaned the crowds, saying that hundreds could potentially have been infected, undoing months of social distancing.

????????在洛杉磯，市長(zhǎng)埃里克?加希提(Eric Garcetti)已發(fā)出警告，這些集會(huì)可能成為“超級(jí)傳播者事件”——這與1918年流感大流行期間的情況類似。當(dāng)時(shí)，在第一波感染后，一些城市舉行游行和大型集會(huì)，導(dǎo)致第二波更致命的感染。

• ...Mayor Eric Garcetti has warned the gatherings could become “super-spreader events” — not unlike during the 1918 flu pandemic when, after the first wave of infections, some cities held parades and large gatherings that led to a second, more deadly wave of infections.

????????亞特蘭大市長(zhǎng)凱莎·博頓斯甚至建議抗議者本周內(nèi)做病毒檢測(cè)。
