美國頂級傳染病專家福奇近日表示，美國并沒有完全控制住國內(nèi)的新冠肺炎疫情，如果疫情繼續(xù)以目前的速度發(fā)展，即使單日新增確診病例達到10萬例，也不會感到驚訝。他同時呼吁人們要戴上口罩，保護自己和他人。

Coronavirus task force member Dr. Anthony Fauci issued a stark warning on Tuesday to lawmakers on Capitol Hill, telling them he wouldn't be surprised if the US sees new cases of coronavirus rising to a level of 100,000 a day.

美國抗疫專家安東尼?福奇博士6月30日對美國國會議員發(fā)出嚴厲警告。他表示，如果美國每日新增新冠肺炎確診病例達到10萬例，他不會感到驚訝。

"We are now having 40-plus thousand new cases a day. I would not be surprised if we go up to 100,000 a day if this does not turn around and so I am very concerned," Fauci told the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee during a hearing on the pandemic on Tuesday.

6月30日，福奇出席國會參議院衛(wèi)生、教育、勞工與養(yǎng)老金委員會關于新冠疫情的聽證會時說：“美國現(xiàn)在每日新增確診病例達4萬多例。如果情況沒有好轉(zhuǎn)以致每日新增10萬確診病例，我不會感到驚訝，所以我非常擔心。”

Fauci expressed dismay over people congregating in crowds and not wearing masks and inadequate attention being paid to guidelines on reopening.

福奇還對人們聚集且不戴口罩、以及人們對重新開放的指導方針重視不足表示失望。

"We're going to continue to be in a lot of trouble, and there's going to be a lot of hurt if that does not stop," he said.

他說：“我們將繼續(xù)面臨很多麻煩，如果這些情況不停止，將會對人們造成更多傷害。”

The US reported more than 40,000 new Covid-19 cases on Friday, its biggest daily jump yet.

上周五（6月26日），美國新冠肺炎新增確診病例超過4萬例，是迄今為止單日最大增幅。

Asked if the pandemic is under control, Fauci said, "I am not satisfied with what's going on because we are going in the wrong direction if you look at the curves of the new cases, so we've really got to do something about that and we need to do it quickly," adding, "Clearly we are not in total control right now."

當被問及疫情是否得到控制時，福奇說：“我對現(xiàn)在的情況感到不滿，因為如果看新增病例曲線，我們的努力方向是錯誤的，所以我們真的需要做點什么，而且要快。”福奇補充道：“顯然我們現(xiàn)在還沒有完全控制住疫情。”

Fauci said that he can't make an accurate prediction of the number of cases and deaths the US will see before the pandemic is over, but said, "It's going to be very disturbing, I will guarantee you that."

福奇說，在疫情結(jié)束之前，他無法準確預測美國的新冠肺炎確診病例數(shù)和死亡人數(shù)，但他說：“我向你們保證，情況會令人非常不安。”

Fauci and US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Dr. Robert Redfield stressed the importance of wearing masks during testimony before a Senate committee on Tuesday, with Fauci saying "we recommend masks for everyone".

本周二在出席參議院委員會聽證會時，福奇還與美國疾病控制和預防中心主任羅伯特?雷德菲爾德博士一同強調(diào)戴口罩的重要性。福奇說：“我們建議每個人都戴口罩。”

"Masks are extremely important," Fauci said, adding, "It's people protecting each other. Anything that furthers the use of masks, whether it's giving out free masks or any other mechanism, I am thoroughly in favor of."

福奇說：“戴口罩非常重要，這是讓人們互相保護。任何能促進戴口罩的行為，無論是免費發(fā)放口罩還是其他任何機制，我都完全贊成。”

Redfield singled out younger Americans in particular to deliver a message that they are not exempt from the necessity of wearing a mask.

雷德菲爾德還特別針對美國年輕人說，他們也必須戴口罩。

"It is critical that we all take the personal responsibility to slow the transmission of Covid-19 and embrace the universal use of face coverings," he said. "Specifically, I'm addressing the younger members of our society, the Millennials and the Generation Zs -- I ask those that are listening to spread the word."

他說：“重要的是，我們每個人都要承擔起減緩新冠病毒傳播的個人責任，并接受普遍佩戴口罩這種情況。具體地說，我是在對我們社會的年輕人，千禧一代和Z一代講話——我要求那些正在聆聽的人傳播這種觀點。”

Fauci indicated that he would support an effort to increase the production of high-quality masks in the US and distribute them free of charge to the American public in response to a question from Vermont independent Sen. Bernie Sanders.

福奇在回答佛蒙特州獨立參議員伯尼·桑德斯的問題時表示，他將支持提高美國高質(zhì)量口罩的產(chǎn)量，并向美國公眾免費發(fā)放口罩。

More than half of all states are seeing a rise in cases, and Florida, Texas and Arizona are getting hit particularly hard. Texas has begun scaling back its reopening, and beaches in Florida have closed for the upcoming holiday weekend.

美國超過一半的州確診病例呈上升趨勢，其中佛羅里達州、德克薩斯州和亞利桑那州的情況尤為嚴重。德克薩斯州已經(jīng)減緩了重新開放的計劃，佛羅里達州的海灘也在即將到來的周末假期關閉。

【美國最新疫情數(shù)據(jù)】
