每天晚上一篇英语知识普及

英语罐头

本文是我的第359篇英语知识文章

就在昨天,罐头菌看见新华社发布了这样一条新闻——《超过8亿!》,但是罐头菌还一脸懵逼,什么东西超8亿了?点进去一看,才发现,原来全国疫苗接种疫苗已经超过8亿剂次了,在如今全球疫情下,这样的成绩确实值得国人骄傲。

而今天,罐头菌在浏览外国新闻的时候,正好看见科学杂志《Nature》发布了相关的文章,惊叹中国接种疫苗的速度如此之快。

China is vaccinating a staggering 20 million people a day

中国每日接种疫苗数高达2000万人

不难看出,这文章从标题就开始彩虹屁了

For more than a week, an average of about 20 million people have been vaccinated against COVID-19 every day in China. At this rate, the nation would have fully vaccinated the entire UK population in little more than six days. China now accounts for more than half of the 35 million or so people around the world receiving a COVID-19 shot each day.

在一周多以来,中国平均每天接种新冠病毒疫苗剂量高达2000万。假如按照这个速度,中国在之后六天多一点的时间,将会完成相当于整个英国人口的接种疫苗数量。从全球来看,平均每天接种新冠疫苗的人数3500万人,而中国就占了其中的一半以上。

Zoltán Kis(a chemical engineer),doesn’t know of “anything even close to those production scales” for a vaccine. “The manufacturing efforts required in China to reach this high production throughput are tremendous,” he says.

Zoltán Kis(化学工程师)说道,“完全不知道有什么疫苗能达到如此生产规模,在制造上需要付出多大的努力才能达成如此巨大产量。”

从上图其实不难看出,从今年的1月份疫苗接种开始,中国的疫苗剂量与全球的基本成正比,而中国的接种量更是接近全球疫苗总量的60%(以一国之力抵全球,罐头菌觉得确实挺牛)

China’s current vaccine production rate could potentially make a significant dent in global demand, says Kis; that would be “a huge step in reducing the health-care and economic burden of the COVID-19 pandemic”. China has already supplied 350 million doses of the two vaccines to more than 75 nations, and WHO approval should now trigger the further distribution of both vaccines to low-income countries.

专家表示,以中国现有的疫苗生产速度会很大程度上影响全球疫苗需求。这将是减少医疗与经济负担的重要一步。中国现阶段已经为至少75个国家提供了3500万剂疫苗,而WHO已批准将为其他低收入国家分配中国疫苗。

As of 6 June, China had administered 778 million doses to its population of about 1.4 billion people. At the current rate, it could fully vaccinate its whole population in around three months.

截止至6月6日,中国14亿人口中,已经有7.78亿人接种了疫苗。而按照现在这个速度,只需大概三个月就可以为全国14亿人口接种疫苗。

看到国家在对抗新冠上有如此成绩,罐头菌也为此感到自豪,也难怪外媒会对此感到又酸又羡慕嫉妒恨。

罐头菌在上个月接种完疫苗,问一下大家都接种了疫苗?
