纽约的新冠确诊数已超过韩国全国……美国疫情远超想象

New York City now has more confirmed coronavirus cases than all of South Korea, a country with more than 51 million people, compared with a city of roughly over 8 million.

纽约市现在新冠肺炎确诊病例已超过韩国全国，韩国人口为5100多万，而纽约市人口刚过800万。

According to a Johns Hopkins University tracker, New York City has over 10,700 confirmed cases of the novel coronavirus, while South Korea has at least 8,961.

约翰斯·霍普金斯大学的一名追踪者称，纽约市确诊新冠肺炎人数超过10,700，韩国确诊人数至少为8,961人。

According to its Department of Health, New York state has over 15,100 confirmed cases, more than any other state as well as a number of countries, including the United Kingdom. There have also been over 115 deaths in New York state.

纽约州卫生局称，该州有超过15,100人确诊，比其他州甚至一些国家都要多，比如英国。纽约州死亡人数超过115。

The increasing numbers of confirmed cases in the state come just days after Governor Andrew Cuomo implemented a number of policies to help stop the virus' spread.

纽约州州长安德鲁·科莫出台了一些防止病毒传播的政策的几天后，该州确诊人数开始上升。

Last week, Cuomo issued an order requiring all nonessential workers across New York state to stay home. Despite this, many New Yorkers continue to live their everyday lives, which Cuomo has called "wholly inappropriate."

上周科莫下了命令，要求纽约州所有不是必须出门工作的人待在家中。尽管如此，很多纽约人生活照旧，科莫说这样做“非常不应该”。

"There is a density level in New York City that is wholly inappropriate," Cuomo said during a Sunday press briefing. "This is just a mistake! It is a mistake! It is insensitive. It is arrogant. It is self-destructive. It's disrespectful to other people and it has to stop, and it has to stop now. This is not a joke, and I am not kidding."

科莫在周日的新闻发布会上说：“纽约市不该有这样的人群聚集度。这是在犯错误！这是不对的！人们都没有意识到问题的严重性！这是自大的表现，是自毁行为，是对别人的不尊重，这样的行为应该停止，不能再继续这样了。这不是开玩笑，我是认真的。”

In addition to his work-from-home order, Cuomo has implemented a number of other measures to help combat the virus, including conducting more tests than any other U.S. state and providing more resources to New York City and Long Island, such as masks and ventilators.

科莫除了发布在家办公的命令之外，还采取了其他防疫措施。纽约州比美国其他州进行的检测都要多，为纽约市和长岛提供了更多的资源，包括口罩和呼吸机。

"UPDATE: We are sending 1 million N95 masks to New York City," Cuomo tweeted on Saturday. "500,000 N95 masks will go to Long Island. We are purchasing 6,000 additional ventilators and gathering supplies from every source we can get."

科莫周六在推特上说：“最新消息：我们给纽约市送去了100万只N95口罩，给长岛送了500,000只N95口罩。我们额外采购了6,000台呼吸机，正尽一切所能采购医护用品。”
