世衛(wèi):人類將在2022年戰(zhàn)勝新冠疫情

The head of the World Health Organization has said he is optimistic the coronavirus pandemic will be defeated in 2022, provided countries work together to contain its spread.

世界衛(wèi)生組織總干事譚德塞表示，只要各國聯(lián)起手來抑制病毒蔓延，他對于人類在2022年戰(zhàn)勝新冠疫情充滿樂觀。

Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesu warned against "narrow nationalism and vaccine hoarding" in a new year’s statement.
譚德塞博士在新年寄語中稱，要警惕“狹隘的民族主義和疫苗囤積”。

Global COVID-19 cases now stand at 287 million, while nearly 5.5 million have died.
目前全球新冠肺炎病例總數(shù)達(dá)到了2.87億，近550萬名患者已經(jīng)喪生。

Coronavirus remains part of daily life: a disease that has shut borders, split families and in some places made it unthinkable to leave the house without carrying a mask.
新冠病毒仍然是日常生活的一部分。疫情導(dǎo)致邊境關(guān)閉、家人分離，在某些地方，不戴口罩甚至出不了門。

Despite all this, Tedros sounded a positive note in his speech, noting there are now many more tools to treat the disease.
盡管如此，譚德塞博士還是在寄語中表明了積極的態(tài)度，并指出如今應(yīng)對和治療新冠的手段比以前多很多。

But he warned continuing inequity in vaccine distribution was increasing the risk of the virus evolving.
但是他警告稱，疫苗分配中持續(xù)的不平等將增加病毒變異的風(fēng)險。
