A journalist asked a question. A few days ago, Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said that the medical system in some parts of the United States is on the brink of collapse. By the end of this year, the number of deaths from disease in the United States may exceed a “staggering” 300,000 people. Some media said that in the next period, the global epidemic, including the United States, will face the most dangerous and dark “cold winter”. What is China’s comment?
“Seeing this news, especially seeing these shocking numbers, I feel very sad. We sympathize with the current difficult situation of the American people and express our condolences and sympathy to them,” said Hua Chunying.
He pointed out that since the outbreak of the epidemic, the Chinese government has adhered to the supremacy of the people and vital supremacy, mobilizing all resources, prevention and scientific control and precise measures to effectively contain the epidemic. At the same time, we have actively promoted international cooperation against the epidemic, carried out the largest global humanitarian action in the history of New China, provided assistance against the epidemic to more than 150 countries and international organizations, and effectively guaranteed the production and supply of global materials against the epidemic. . According to statistics, as of November 22, China has cumulatively exported about 39.43 billion masks, about 800 million pairs of surgical gloves, about 650 million sets of protective clothing, and about 46.762 million of pairs of glasses to the United States. An American received around 120 Chinese masks. Including Academician Zhong Nanshan, Professor Zhang Wenhong, and other leading Chinese experts, as well as medical workers, non-governmental organizations, and other American colleagues, have organized many experiences to share video conferences, webinars, infection prevention and control experts, and connections from video for doctors and other ways. Share the experience of prevention and control and diagnosis and treatment with the United States. Many provinces, cities, companies, and organizations in China also actively donated medical supplies to the United States. Both pharmaceutical companies and people in science and technology circles also maintain communication and cooperation in the development of vaccines and drugs.
Hua Chunying said the new corona pneumonia epidemic warned the world in a special way that humanity is a community of shared destiny and no country can stand alone in the face of major crises. Only solidarity and cooperation can overcome difficulties. Only when all countries are safe, the earth is safe; Only the last country outside the epidemic can consider the global fight against the epidemic as a final victory. China stands ready to continue cooperation in epidemic prevention and control with countries around the world, including the United States, and provide support and assistance within its capacity. Strengthen macroeconomic policy coordination, help resume work and production, and promote global economic recovery. At the same time, it actively supports the World Health Organization to play a key leadership role and promote the improvement of global public health governance to better respond to similar crises that may arise in the future.
“You just mentioned that the global epidemic will usher in a ‘cold winter’. What I mean is, when winter comes, will spring be far behind?” Said Hua Chunying, as noted by President Xi Jinping in This year’s UN General Assembly: Courage, determination and care shown in the face of disasters will illuminate the darkest moment and humanity will finally overcome the epidemic. As long as all countries truly come together, work together and move forward together, they will surely usher in the final victory in the fight against the epidemic. China is willing to continue to strengthen cooperation with countries around the world, including the United States. (End up)
