The number of COVID-19 cases worldwide is expected to reach 100 million this week, Director-General of the World Health Organization Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said.
世界衛(wèi)生組織總干事譚德塞在1月25日的例行記者會(huì)上表示，預(yù)計(jì)本周全球新冠肺炎確診病例將達(dá)到1億例。
"A year ago today, fewer than 1,500 cases of COVID-19 had been reported to WHO, including just 23 cases outside China. This week, we expect to reach 100 million reported cases," Tedros said at a WHO press briefing on Monday. "Numbers can make us numb to what they represent: every death is someone's parent, someone's partner, someone's child, someone's friend," he added, and called for vaccination of health workers and older people to be underway in all countries within the first 100 days of 2021.
他說(shuō)："一年以前的今天，全球新冠肺炎確診病例只有不到1500例，中國(guó)之外只有23例。而本周全球新冠肺炎確診病例將達(dá)到1億例。數(shù)字可能會(huì)使人麻木，但每個(gè)數(shù)字背后都是一個(gè)人，是某個(gè)人的父母、伴侶、子女或者朋友。"他呼吁所有國(guó)家在今年前100天內(nèi)啟動(dòng)對(duì)醫(yī)護(hù)人員和老年人的新冠疫苗接種。
According to a new report from the International Labor Organization, which analyzes the impact of the pandemic on the global labor market, some 8.8% of global working hours were lost in 2020, resulting in a decline in global labor income equivalent to $3.7 trillion.
