聯合國秘書長
安東尼奧·古特雷斯
當今世界正在與新冠病毒肺炎大流行作鬥爭——這是我們自第二次世界大戰以來遇到的最嚴峻危機——我們還遭遇另一場流行病，即危險的錯誤信息流行病。
As the world fights the deadly COVID-19 pandemic – the most challenging crisis we have faced since the Second World War – we are also seeing another epidemic, a dangerous epidemic of misinformation.
世界各地人民感到恐懼。人民想知道該做什麼，該向哪裡尋求建議。
Around the world, people are scared. They want to know what to do and where to turn for advice.

這是一個講科學、求團結的時刻。然而，全球範圍內的“錯誤信息傳播”愈演愈烈，有害的健康建議和各種偏方比比皆是。
This is a time for science and solidarity. Yet the global ‘misinfo-demic’ is spreading. Harmful health advice and snake-oil solutions are proliferating.
謠言充斥著電視廣播媒體。瘋狂的陰謀論在互聯網上蔓延。仇恨成為一種病毒，對個人和群體極盡汙衊和詆譭。
Falsehoods are filling the airwaves. Wild conspiracy theories are infecting the Internet. Hatred is going viral, stigmatizing and vilifying people and groups.

全世界必須團結一致，共同抗禦這個另類疾病。免疫辦法就是信任。
The world must unite against this disease, too. The vaccine is trust.
一是相信科學。我向那些對堆積如山的誤導、杜撰和社交媒體帖子查證真相的記者和的其他人致敬。社交媒體公司必須採取更多措施根除涉及新冠病毒的仇恨和有害言論。
First, trust in science. I salute the journalists and others fact-checking the mountain of misleading stories and social media posts. Social media companies must do more to root out hate and harmful assertions about COVID-19.

二是信任體制——以反應靈敏、負責和有證可循的治理和領導力為依託。彼此信任，相互尊重和維護人權一定是我們駕馭這場危機的定海神針。
Second, trust in institutions — grounded in responsive, responsible, evidence-based governance and leadership. And trust in each other. Mutual respect and upholding human rights must be our compass in navigating this crisis.
讓我們攜手同行，拒絕漫天謊言和無稽之談。
Together, let’s reject the lies and nonsense out there.

今天，我宣佈一項新的聯合國信息傳播應對舉措，倡議向互聯網傳遞大量事實和科學知識，同時打擊日益嚴重的錯誤信息禍害——錯誤信息是一劑毒藥，會使更多人的生命陷入危險境地。
Today, I am announcing a new United Nations communications response initiative to flood the internet with facts and science while countering the growing scourge of misinformation, a poison that is putting even more lives at risk.

我們以明通理、講事實為共同事業，定能擊敗新冠病毒肺炎，建立一個更健康、更公平、更公正和更堅韌的世界。謝謝！
With common cause for common sense and facts, we can defeat COVID-19 -- and build a healthier, more equitable, just and resilient world. Thank you！
向戰鬥在一線的每一個工作人員致敬！
中國加油！世界加油！
要事實，不要恐懼
要科學，不要傳言
要團結，不要羞辱
