Donald Trump has decided not to press ahead with his threat to relax social distancing rules. Americans have federal scientists to thank for his change of heart. The president was shocked by their projections of more than 2m American deaths. Even if the US sticks to scientific guidelines, it could face between 100,000 and 200,000 fatalities. Mr Trump can help by fixing the mess in federal procurement.
唐納德?特朗普(Donald Trump)已決定不再繼續(xù)威脅要放松“社會(huì)疏離”規(guī)定。他能改變主意,美國人要感謝聯(lián)邦政府的科學(xué)家。他們預(yù)測(cè)當(dāng)前的新型冠狀病毒肺炎(COVID-19,即2019冠狀病毒?。┮咔榭赡軐?dǎo)致逾200萬美國人死亡,這讓總統(tǒng)感到震驚。即使美國堅(jiān)持科學(xué)的指導(dǎo)方針,死亡人數(shù)也可能達(dá)到10萬到20萬。特朗普可以通過消除聯(lián)邦采購的混亂局面來提供幫助。
