莫纳科表示， 奥巴马政府留下了一份长达69页的“战疫指导手册” ，手册里详细记录了政府应对埃博拉病毒及寨卡病毒的经验，且提供了关于国家安全委员会及白宫该如何应对全球大流行病的指导。但是，很显然， 手册被特朗普政府无视了。 另外，莫纳科还提到了奥巴马政府一个 名为“预测”的项 目。 该项目旨在对海外流行病做出预警，并防止其发展为全球大流行病。 然而，在特朗普执政后，该项目却被撤资。 Recently, CNN disclosed new details regarding Trump administration's incompetency in dealing with the pandemic. Former U.S. Homeland Security Adviser Lisa Monaco told CNN they left a 69-page "playbook" detailing their experience of responding to Ebola and Zika outbreaks, in response to Senator Mitch McConnell's claim that former U.S. President Obama left the Trump administration unprepared for a pandemic. "That playbook was, of course, ignored," said Monaco. She also mentioned a program called "Predict" aiming to stop epidemics before they become pandemics, which was "defunded" by the Trump administration. 再比如↓ 当地时间11日，CNN主播安德森·库珀表示，特朗普关于新冠病毒检测的承诺从未兑现过，关于疫情的言论也多半只能听听而已——这些言论包括： “任何想要做新冠病毒检测的人都能得到检测。” “我们从上一届政府接手的，是一个破破烂烂的检测系统。” “我们做的检测数量，比所有其他国家加起来还要多。” “就像我一直说的，检测的重要性被高估了。” “检测当然是很重要的，我们做得很好了。” …… 事实上，特朗普关于检测的种种不实言论，早已招致各方“打脸”。微软公司创始人比尔·盖茨曾说，美国进行大规模病毒检测的能力远不及亚洲国家水平；弗吉尼亚州州长诺森也曾表示特朗普宣称“有足够的检测能力”简直就是“妄想”…… Besides, CNN's anchor Anderson Cooper on Monday examined comments made by Trump about coronavirus testing and pointed out that Trump's testing claim is not and has never been true. In fact, Trump's claim about coronavirus testing has long received criticism and denial from different parties. Bill Gates, co-founder of Microsoft Corporation, once publicly said that U.S. lags behind Asian countries in terms of massive coronavirus testing capacity. Besides, Ralph Shearer Northam, governor of Virginia, said it is "delusional" for Trump to say states have testing capacity. #3.关键词： "Shakespearean" & "Re-elected" U.S. President Donald Trump holds a COVID-19 response press briefing in the Rose Garden of the White House in Washington, U.S., May 11, 2020. /Reuters 路透社/益普索集团于当地时间12日公布的一项最新民调显示，随着新冠肺炎死亡人数持续增加，在过去一个月中，越来越多的美国人对特朗普持批评态度。目前，特朗普在登记选民中的支持率已落后民主党竞选人拜登8个百分点。 与此同时，美国人似乎也越来越不满意特朗普应对公共卫生危机的方式。民调指出，不认可特朗普疫情应对表现的人超过了认可者13个百分点——这是自3月初民调提出这一问题以来，净反对率最高的一次。 More Americans have grown critical of President Donald Trump over the past month as the death toll mounts from the coronavirus pandemic, and he now trails Democratic challenger Joe Biden by eight percentage points among registered voters, according to a Reuters/Ipsos opinion poll released on Tuesday. |
