UK imposes tougher measures
英国再度收紧防疫措施

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson told people on Tuesday to work from home when possible and ordered bars and restaurants to shut earlier in a bid to tackle a fast-spreading second wave of COVID-19.
英国首相约翰逊9月22日下令,要求民众尽可能居家办公,酒吧和餐馆提前打烊,以应对迅速蔓延的第二波新冠肺炎疫情。

After government scientists warned that the death rate would soar without urgent action, Johnson said the new restrictions could last for six months, although he stopped short of imposing another full lockdown.
此前政府科学家警告称,如果不采取紧急行动,英国将面临新冠疫情死亡率飙升的危险。虽然约翰逊没有宣布再度实施全面封锁,但他表示,新的限制举措可能将持续半年。

"I'm sorry to say that as in Spain and France and many other countries, we have reached a perilous turning point," Johnson told parliament following emergency meetings with ministers and leaders of the UK's devolved governments.
约翰逊向国会表示:“我很遗憾地说,和西班牙、法国等许多国家一样,我们已经到了一个危险的转折点。”在此之前,约翰逊与政府大臣以及北爱尔兰、苏格兰和威尔士的领导人举行了紧急会晤。

Just weeks after urging people to start returning to workplaces, Johnson advised office workers to stay at home if they could.
约翰逊建议办公室职员尽量居家办公,几周前,他刚呼吁人们回到工作岗位。

He ordered all pubs, bars, restaurants and other hospitality sites to close at 10 pm beginning Thursday with only table service allowed.
约翰逊还要求所有夜店、酒吧、餐馆以及其它娱乐场所从9月24日起必须在晚上10点关门,且只允许提供桌边服务。

Face-masks will be required in more settings, businesses that break rules will be fined and there will be tougher enforcement against people who do not comply, he said.
约翰逊还表示,要求必须佩戴口罩的场合将增加,违反规定的商家将被罚款,政府对违反防疫新政的个人也将采取更严厉的措施。
