除了死了那位,另外一家康复机构的一位住民和一名工作人员被确认阳性,还有五十多人出现肺炎或呼吸道症状。
如果仍然放仼自流,不堪设想。五十多位潜在传播者啊!
Health officials announced an outbreak of coronavirus at the Life Care Center of Kirkland, Washington. The facility provides skilled nursing and rehabilitation services.
然而,CDC官员的态度是:
“Right now, we still judge the general risk to the American public to be low, and that includes residents of long-term care facilities,” said Dr. Nancy Messonnier, director of the Center for the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, at a Saturday news briefing.
唉,都这样了,还Low。
还有那位向总统报错性别的国家卫生官员。
加上那位在报告第一例死亡病例官宣讲台上不断舔手指的卫生官员。
唉,这些权位者的素质真的漏哇。真的为将来几个月担心啊。
