短期强生供货无望！五一之前萨县只能为1/10的成年人接种！
（ABC10）Sacramento County will still face a vaccine gap on May 1
萨克拉门托县到5月1日仍将面临疫苗缺口
The new one-dose COVID vaccine from Johnson & Johnson is seen as critical to making doses more widely available, but supplies are slowly arriving.
强生公司(Johnson & Johnson)的新型单剂COVID - 19疫苗被认为对更广泛地接种疫苗至关重要，但供应却很缓慢。
SACRAMENTO COUNTY, Calif. — At the current rate Sacramento County is receiving doses, fewer than one in ten unvaccinated adults would be able to get a shot by May 1, the date when the Biden administration plans to make the vaccine available to all.
加州萨克拉门托县——按照萨克拉门托县目前的接种率，不到十分之一的未接种成人能在5月1日之前接种疫苗，也就是拜登政府计划向所有人提供疫苗的日期。
As of mid-March, more than 200,000 people in the county had received at least one dose of a coronavirus vaccine, leaving about one million unvaccinated adults according to US Census population figures.
根据普查数据，截至3月中旬，该县逾20万人至少接种了一剂冠状病毒疫苗，约有100万成年人未接种疫苗。
Health officer Dr. Olivia Kasirye says Sacramento County is receiving about 15,000 doses per week, which means only 90,000 doses would arrive by May.
卫生官员奥利维亚·卡西耶(Olivia Kasirye)博士说，萨克拉门托县每周接受大约1.5万剂疫苗，这意味着到5月份只有9万剂疫苗会到达。
The new Johnson & Johnson vaccine is seen by public health experts as key to helping fill the gap. The vaccine doesn’t require the same super-cold storage that the Moderna and Pfizer versions do and it can be administered in one dose.
公共卫生专家认为，强生公司的新疫苗是帮助填补这一空白的关键。这种疫苗不需要像Moderna和辉瑞公司(Pfizer)的疫苗那样需要超低温储存，而且可以一次注射一次。
But there’s a more fundamental reason the new shot is getting attention.
但这疫苗之所以受到关注，还有一个更根本的原因。
“It’s another pipeline of vaccines,” said Alonzo Plough, a former Los Angeles County health official who serves as chief science officer for the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. “It’s another lane opened up in your grocery store so you can check out faster.”
“这是另一个疫苗渠道，”前洛杉矶县卫生官员、罗伯特·伍德·约翰逊基金会(Robert Wood Johnson Foundation)首席科学官阿朗佐·博莱尔(Alonzo Plough)说。“这是新开的另一条通道，这样你可以更快地接种。”
Sacramento County received its first shipment of the new vaccine last week with 5,000 doses. A one-third increase to the weekly supply would be a big help if Johnson & Johnson can keep the shipments coming.
萨克拉门托县上周收到了第一批5000剂的新疫苗。如果强生公司能继续供货，每周供货增加三分之一将是一个很大的帮助。
So far, that hasn’t happened.
到目前为止，这还没有发生。
“We will not get [an allocation] this week or the week after, but we’re hoping that starting in April, we will get a steady supply of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine,” Dr. Kasirye said.
卡西耶博士说:“本周后下周，都不指望强生能供应了，但我们希望从4月份开始，我们能得到强生公司疫苗的稳定供应。”
The company recently partnered with competitor pharmaceutical company Merck, which abandoned its own vaccine development when its version proved less effective than others.
该公司最近与竞争对手默克制药公司(Merck)合作。由于该公司的疫苗被证明不如其他公司有效，默克放弃了自己的疫苗研发。
Merck expects to be able to deliver doses of Johnson & Johnson’s vaccine later in the year, helped by federal money paid to expand its production ability.
在联邦资金的帮助下，默克公司有望在今年晚些时候生产出强生公司的疫苗。
Despite the May 1 target for general vaccine eligibility, wait times could vary by area to actually receive doses. Supplies may still be too short to give people a choice in which brand of vaccine they get.
尽管5月1日是获得成人都能获得疫苗资格的目标，但实际接受剂量的等待时间可能因地区而异。疫苗供应可能仍然太少，人们无法选择注射哪个品牌的疫苗。
Johnson & Johnson’s shot had lower effectiveness than the others at preventing COVID cases, but clinical trials still showed a 100% effectiveness in preventing hospitalization and deaths.
强生公司的疫苗在预防新冠病毒病例方面的有效性低于其他疫苗，但临床试验仍显示在预防住院和死亡方面100%有效。
“We’re in the realm of the extremely effective to the extremely super effective,” Plough said, urging people to get whatever vaccine they can obtain first.
Plough说，我们处于非常有效的领域，并督促人们先获得他们能获得的任何疫苗，无关品牌，能注射哪个就注射哪个。
