關於 emerging threats ，我們在網路上蒐集到這些相關的討論、資訊與評價

AIT與壯闊台灣、衛福部台北區緊急醫療應變中心、台灣醫療救護學會，以及消防員工作權益促進會於上周末共同舉辦「成為彼此的後盾」夏令營，主旨為提升民眾在現今社會中對於「安全」及其重要性的認識。在當天的活動中，AIT政治官黃東偉、聯絡事務組組長柯明修、舒安容醫師，與壯闊台灣發起人吳怡農及各界專家，與全台各地60位學員一起在講座及工作坊中，建立從個人到社區的緊急應變能力，模擬應對新型態的安全威脅及災害應變，學習危機處理與領導，以及急救實務與操作。

AIT partnered with the Forward Alliance, the Taipei’s Disaster Medical Assistance Team, Taiwan Society of Paramedicine, and National Association for Firefighters’ Rights in hosting a “Millions Strong: Saving Your Neighbor” summer camp under the theme of Community-Based Resilience. Throughout the whole-day event, AIT officers Thomas Wong, Matthew Kent, and Dr. Erika Schroeder joined Forward Alliance Founder Enoch Wu and experts in various fields to interact with 60 attendees between the age of 18 and 60 coming from all over the island. The goal is to build capacity in emergency responses among individuals and communities, and training and simulation on emerging security threats, disaster preparedness, leadership in crisis and first-aid essentials were provided to raise the awareness of the importance of “security” and what it means in the context nowadays.

★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
The threat of emerging infectious diseases to global health and the economy, trade, and tourism has never abated. Pandemics can spread rapidly around the world because of the ease of international transportation. Among the most salient examples are the Spanish flu of 1918, the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) outbreak of 2003, and the H1N1 influenza of 2009. Intermittently, serious regional epidemics, such as Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) in 2012, Ebola in West Africa in 2014, and the Zika virus in Central and South America in 2016, have also reared their heads.
　
1. the threat of ⋯⋯的威脅
2. emerging infectious disease 新興傳染病
3. abate (v.) 減少；消除
4. salient examples 顯著的例子
5. regional epidemics 地區流行疫情；地區性流行病

新興傳染病對全球人類健康及經貿旅遊的威脅從未間斷過，舉凡１９１８年西班牙流感、２００３年嚴重急性呼吸道症候群（ＳＡＲＳ）、２００９年Ｈ１Ｎ１新型流感等爆發的全球大流行，抑或２０１２年中東呼吸症候群冠狀病毒感染症（ＭＥＲＳ）、２０１４年西非伊波拉出血熱、２０１６年中南美洲茲卡病毒感染症等導致的區域大流行，皆因國際航空運輸而加速散播到全球各地，造成全球衛生安全不可避免的傷害。
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
Today, a novel form of pneumonia that first emerged in Wuhan, China, at the end of 2019 and has since been classified as coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has caused a global pandemic. As of April 20, 2020, World Health Organization data showed that 2.24 million people had been confirmed as having the disease, with 152,551 deaths in 211 countries/areas/territories. Taiwan has not been spared.

8. be classified as 被分類為⋯⋯
9. a global pandemic 全球大流行
10. be confirmed as 被確認為⋯⋯

更有甚者，２０１９年底從中國武漢傳出的不明原因肺炎，現已在全球各地爆發大流行，截至ＷＨＯ在２０２０年４月８日的統計數據，全球已有1,353,361名確診病例、79,235名死亡，影響範圍擴及２１１個國家／區域／地區，臺灣亦無從倖免。
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
As of April 20, Taiwan had tested a total of 55,476 persons showing 422 confirmed cases of COVID-19, of which 55 were indigenous, 343 imported, and 24 are Navy members currently serving in the fleet. Taiwan has reported just six deaths; 203 people have been released from the hospital after testing negative. Despite its proximity to China, Taiwan ranked 123rd among 183 countries in terms of confirmed cases per million people. This has shown that Taiwan’s aggressive efforts to control the epidemic are working.
　
12. as of 截至⋯⋯
13. confirmed cases 確診病例
14. indigenous 本土的
15. proximity to 鄰近
16. in terms of 就⋯⋯而言
17. aggressive efforts 積極的努力
　
截至４月２０日止，我國已累計檢驗55,476例，共發現４２２起確診病例，其中本土５５例、境外移入３４３例以及敦睦遠訓支隊２４例。我國目前６例死亡；經三次採檢均為陰性的出院者２０３例。我國在地理位置上雖鄰近中國，然每百萬人口確診數在國際間排名約第１２３名，顯示臺灣防疫工作成效顯著。
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
A crisis anywhere readily becomes a problem everywhere. Global health security requires the efforts of every person to ensure an optimal response to public health threats and challenges. Taiwan, though not a member of WHO, cannot stand alone and must be included in the fight against such threats and challenges. Taiwan has fulfilled its responsibilities as a global citizen and abided by the International Health Regulations 2005 (IHR 2005) in notifying the WHO of confirmed COVID-19 cases.

23. notify sb. of sth. 將某事通報某人
　
疾病無國界，星星之火足以燎原，地方疫情控制不好即可能造成全球大流行。因此，維護全球衛生安全亟需全體人類共同努力，確保最佳量能因應公共衛生威脅與挑戰。我國雖非ＷＨＯ會員，但無法獨善其身、置身於全球衛生安全之外，故秉持世界公民之責，恪守國際衛生條例２００５（ＩＨＲ ２００５）規範，主動向ＷＨＯ通報確診病例，
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
Moreover, Taiwan has communicated with other countries such as Japan, the Republic of Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, the United States, Canada, Italy, France, Switzerland, Germany, the United Kingdom, Belgium, and the Netherlands, as well as the European Center for Disease Prevention and Control, to share information on confirmed cases, travel and contact histories of patients, and border control measures. Taiwan has uploaded the genetic sequence of COVID-19 to the Global Initiative on Sharing All Influenza Data (GISAID). Taiwan has worked with global partners to respond to the threat of COVID-19 to ensure that global health is not imperiled by a lack of communication and transparency.

★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
We urge the WHO and related parties to acknowledge Taiwan’s longstanding contributions to the international community in the areas of public health, disease prevention, and the human right to health, and to include Taiwan in WHO and its meetings, mechanisms, and activities. Taiwan will continue to work with the rest of the world to ensure that all enjoy the fundamental human right to health as stipulated in the WHO Constitution. Echoing the mantra of the United Nations’2030 Sustainable Development Goals, no one should be left behind.

＃疫情英文
＃國際時事英文

【逐字稿】

第一個單字是 sanction、s-a-n-c-t-i-o-n、sanction 進行制裁，例句是：

The U.S. sanctioned 33 Chinese companies over human rights violations against Uighurs.

美國決定，懲罰 33 家中國公司，因為這些公司，打壓少數族群！這些公司就是中國政府把持的啦，他們打壓虐待新疆維吾爾族等少數民族。這些中國公司，有一些是做人工智慧和臉部辨識的，一些高科技公司。而這些高科技產品，可能是拿來監視少數族群的，很惡劣。這些中國公司想製造產品，需要美國的科技及零件，才做得出來，所以美國就抽手，不幫你們了，讓中國公司運轉不下去。這就是一種制裁 sanction。

https://www.dw.com/en/us-sanctions-chinese-entities-over-human-rights-violations/a-53542199

第二個單字是 give the go-ahead、g-i-v-e 空格 t-h-e 空格 a-h-e-a-d 、give the go-ahead 批准，例句是：
Costa Rica gave the go-ahead to same-sex marriages on Tuesday, making it the first country in Central America to do so.

恭喜哥斯大黎加，喜迎第一場同性婚姻！！！在中美洲國家之中，哥斯大黎加是 No.1，第一個通過同婚的國家～ 婚禮超級熱血的喔，凌晨 12 點，法案一通過，就立刻在半夜舉行。批准，就是 give the go-ahead。

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2020/05/costa-rica-sex-marriages-central-america-200526123834393.html

第三個單字是 pardon、p-a-r-d-o-n、pardon，原諒、赦免，例句是：

Zambia’s president has pardoned a gay couple jailed last year.

尚比亞總統特赦上千名罪犯，其中包含一對同性伴侶。這對同性伴侶為什麼被關？只因為他們是同志。這個非洲國家非常保守，同性戀就是罪，會被抓去關的，而且這位總統歧視同志，所以還是要持續監督跟觀察。赦免就是 pardon。

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-52807727

第四個單字是 border、b-o-r-d-e-r、border 邊界；國界，例句是：

Denmark has opened its borders to cross-border couples.
歐洲疫情趨緩，丹麥開放跨國伴侶入境。

之前，丹麥為了防疫，限制其他國家的人入境。也就是說，如果你是丹麥人，你男朋友是德國人，你們就不能見面了！被國家邊界給擋住，很難過。但現在，丹麥要讓戀人見面了～目前開放的是德國或北歐公民，來丹麥找自己的 honey。這個國界，就是 border。

最後一個單字是 malware、m-a-l-w-a-r-e、malware，惡意軟體，例句是：

Hundreds of apps carrying malware known as Dresscode are showing up on the Google Play Store.

你的手機是用 Android 系統嗎？小心，Android 商店裡，有 400 多個 App，帶有病毒啊！這個病毒是個惡意程式，叫做「Dresscode」。如果你安裝一個 app，它帶有這個惡意程式，那就麻煩了。駭客可以輕易偷走你手機裡的資料。請務必小心，不要亂下載 app 喔！
