世衛(wèi)不建議發(fā)布全面旅行禁令

The World Health Organization warned on Tuesday blanket travel bans will not prevent the international spread of the COVID-19 Omicron variant, even as dozens of countries have already introduced such restrictions.

世界衛(wèi)生組織11月30日說(shuō)，全面旅行禁令無(wú)法阻止新冠變異病毒奧密克戎毒株的國(guó)際傳播，目前全球已有數(shù)十個(gè)國(guó)家采取了限制旅行的措施。

Although Omicron has been labeled a "variant of concern" by the WHO, it said blanket travel bans will only place a heavy burden on lives and livelihoods, while also "disincentivizing countries to report and share epidemiological and sequencing data."

世衛(wèi)組織表示，雖然他們將奧密克戎毒株列為"需要關(guān)注"的變異毒株，但全面旅行禁令只會(huì)給人民生活和生計(jì)造成沉重負(fù)擔(dān)，抑制各國(guó)報(bào)告和分享新冠流行病學(xué)和測(cè)序數(shù)據(jù)的積極性。

The Omicron variant was first reported to the WHO by South Africa last week. So far, several countries and regions have confirmed cases of infection with Omicron.

繼上周南非首次向世衛(wèi)組織報(bào)告奧密克戎毒株后，截至目前已有多個(gè)國(guó)家和地區(qū)報(bào)告了奧密克戎毒株確診病例。

Dozens of countries have already tightened travel measures, and even suspended flights.
