特朗普稱已有足夠檢測能力可復工?美國州長:痴心妄想


近日,美國總統特朗普曾在多個場合表示,美國各州已有足夠的檢測能力,並稱可以逐步復工。

對此,美國兩位州長表示:說出這種話,純粹是痴心妄想,不負責任。

在美國有線電視新聞網(CNN)的一檔節目中,主持人傑克·泰博(Jake Tapper)提問弗吉尼亞州州長,該州的病毒檢測能力如何,能否滿足復工的要求?

州長拉爾夫·諾森

(Ralph Northam)

搖頭苦笑著說:

說出那種話,純粹是痴心妄想。

That is delusional to be making a statement like that.

諾森解釋道,現在各州還面臨著個人防護設備不夠、物資供應不足等種種問題,甚至連檢測所需的拭子都不夠用。

我們每天都在很努力地爭取個人防護設備。我們也在獲取一些物資供應。現在我們又在努力爭取更多的檢測。這不是簡單的檢測。我們甚至沒有足夠的拭子,不管你信不信。

We've been fighting every day for PPE. We've got some supplies now coming in. We've been fighting for testing. It's not a straightforward test. We don't even have enough swabs, believe it or not.


我們正在加強檢測能力,從國家層面來說,有我們所需的東西,而實際上,各州卻得不到任何指導。

And we are ramping that up, but for the national level to say that we have what we need and really to have no guidance to the state levels.

在如此情況下,諾森認為,說出這種話很不負責任

這是不負責任的(說法),我們還沒做到這一點。

It's just irresponsible because we're not there yet.

隨後,主持人又連線馬里蘭州州長拉里·霍根(Larry Hogan),詢問該州是否具有足夠的檢測能力,足以進入復工的第一階段。

對此,霍根也表示,儘管聯邦政府和各州政府都在努力提高檢測能力,但現在說已經具備足夠的檢測能力,是絕對錯誤的,是不坦誠的。

我認為聯邦政府正試圖增加檢測能力,他們正在私人實驗室方面下功夫。但如果忽略這點,說各州已經具有足夠的檢測能力,應該著手進行測試,同時責怪我們沒有做好自己的工作,這是絕對錯誤的。

The administration, I think, is trying to ramp up testing. They are doing something with respect to private labs, but to try to push this off to say that the governors have plenty of testing and they should just get to work on testing. Somehow we aren't doing our job. It is just absolutely false.


所以我認為,聯邦層面已經取得了一些進展,各州在努力增強自己的檢測能力,實驗室的檢測能力也在不斷提高,但要說已經有足夠的檢測是不準確的。要說州長只需落實檢測,是不坦誠的。

So you know, look, I think they've made some strides at the federal level and the states are all working hard on their own to find their own testing. Lab capacity has been increasing, but it’s not accurate to say there is plenty of testing out there. And the governors should just get it down. That's just not being straightforward.

此外,霍根直接指出美國一直以來存在的問題:“我認為從疫情開始以來,美國最大的問題可能就是檢測不足”。

I think this is probably the number one problem in America and has been from the beginning of this crisis, the lack of testing.

他強調了美國仍然面臨的拭子和試劑短缺的問題,而這兩項正是新冠病毒檢測的關鍵。

在美國任何地方,拭子都不夠用。然而,沒有拭子就做不了檢測。同時存在短缺的還有試劑,試劑也是檢測的一部分。

…there are things like shortages on swabs that we don't have anywhere in America. Yet you can't do the tests without them. On the reagent, which is just part of the test.

據約翰斯·霍普金斯大學數據,截至美東時間21日17時38分,美國新冠肺炎確診病例為820104例,死亡44228例。
