英国回来的游客是否需要全面禁止，以拦截将变异病毒带回旧金山！
Holiday Travelers Return to Bay Area, Raising Concerns Over Another Virus Surge
假日旅客返回旧金山湾区，引发了人们对另一种病毒激增的担忧
As travelers across the country begin to make their way home after the Christmas holiday, health leaders are concerned with the possibility of a post-holiday surge in COVID-19 cases.
随着全国各地的游客在圣诞假期后开始回家，卫生领导人担心COVID-19病例在假期后可能激增。
And those traveling from the United Kingdom must take an extra step before they are allowed to get on a plane, in response to what health officials there are calling a mutant strain of the coronavirus.
来自英国的旅客在获准登机前必须采取额外措施，以应对英国卫生官员所说的冠状病毒突变株。
In an effort to slow the spread of the deadlier strain from the U.K., the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced new testing requirements for those arriving from that nation. Travelers from the U.K. must present a negative COVID-19 test within three days of boarding a flight to the U.S.
为了减缓这种更为致命的菌株从英国传播的速度，美国疾病控制与预防中心(Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)宣布了对来自英国的人的新检测要求。英国旅客必须在登机后3天内提交COVID-19阴性检测报告
According to the CDC, if a traveler does not present the test, the airline must deny that passenger from boarding the flight.
根据疾控中心的规定，如果旅客没有进行测试，航空公司必须拒绝该旅客登机。
Scientific opinions are mixed, with some saying publicly the U.S. policy to use testing to keep out the mutant strain is like using a chain link fence to keep out mosquitos. But UCSF infectious disease specialist Dr. Peter Chin-Hong points out the vaccines will be effective against the new strain, which is probably already in the U.S.
科学观点不一，一些人公开表示，美国使用检测来阻止变种病毒的政策就像使用铁丝网来阻止蚊子。但加州大学旧金山分校传染病专家Peter Chin-Hong博士指出，疫苗将对新病毒株有效，这种病毒可能已经在美国出现
"Screening people at the borders with virus testing is something that is completely reasonable, something that other countries have done before. Even Hawaii does that to some level," he said. "So, I think that is something that I support. But a blanket ban, complete overreaction."
“在边境对人们进行病毒检测是完全合理的，其他国家以前也做过。甚至夏威夷在某种程度上也这样做。”“所以，我认为这是我支持的。但是全面禁止，完全是反应过度。”
The Transportation Security Administration said they screened more than 1 million Americans over the Christmas holiday in midst of a pandemic that is now deadlier than ever. The TSA said Sunday's traffic was just 45% of what it was a year ago, but for many, the concern is still there.
美国运输安全管理局(Transportation Security Administration)表示，他们在圣诞节期间筛查了100多万美国人，目前疫情比以往任何时候都更致命。美国运输安全管理局说，周日的交通流量只有一年前的45%，但对很多人来说，担忧仍然存在。
Many communities across the country and in the Bay Area have just a small percentage of their ICU beds available.
美国各地和旧金山湾区的许多社区只有一小部分ICU病床可用。
"When you're dealing with a baseline of 200,000 new cases a day and about 2,000 deaths per day, with the hospitalizations over 120,000, we are really at a very critical point," infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci said.
传染病专家安东尼·福西博士说:“每天有20万新病例，大约2000人死亡，12万多人住院治疗，我们真的处于一个非常关键的时刻。”
Chin-Hong said the best way to respect the virus, regardless of the strain, is to keep doing the recommended precautions: washing hands, wearing a mask and socially distancing.
陈宏说，尊重病毒的最好方式，无论株型如何，都是保持推荐的预防措施:洗手、戴口罩和保持社交距离。
