福奇说，正常生活可能要到2021年底才能恢复

Dr. Anthony Fauci said it could be the end of 2021 before life gets back to how it was before Covid-19.

安东尼·福奇博士说，可能要到2021年底才能恢复到Covid-19之前的水平。

"If you're talking about getting back to a degree of normality which resembles where we were prior to Covid, it's going to be well into 2021, maybe even towards the end of 2021," Fauci said Friday.

福奇星期五说:“如果你说要回到Covid-19之前的正常程度，那要到2021年才能恢复，甚至可能要到2021年底。”

A vaccine will help, but there are caveats, Fauci said in a series of interviews Friday.

疫苗会有帮助，但也有警告，福奇在周五的一系列采访中说。

Fauci has said repeatedly that it's possible at least one of the vaccines being tested could get emergency authorization from the US Food and Drug Administration by the end of this year or early next year. But it won't be available to everyone immediately.

福奇曾多次表示，在今年年底或明年初，至少有一种正在测试的疫苗可能会获得美国食品和药物管理局的紧急授权。但并非所有人都能立即使用。

One stumbling block -- keeping the vaccines cold. Most of the experimental coronavirus vaccines must be kept frozen.

其中一个障碍就是让疫苗保持低温。大多数实验用的冠状病毒疫苗必须冷冻保存。

Debunking nonsense

揭穿胡说八道

Plus, people are not always doing what they should do to control the spread of the virus, even now, Fauci said.

此外，人们并不总是在做他们应该做的来控制病毒的传播，即使是现在，福奇说。

"When you're dealing with a situation that requires behavioral change, we in the United States have a significant issue that I'm very disappointed in," Fauci said during the webinar.

“当你在处理需要改变行为的情况时，我们美国有一个我非常失望的重大问题，”福奇在网络研讨会上说。

"It was stunning to me ... that in some states and cities and counties, you would see television clips of people crowded indoors at bars, which is a superspreading event if you ever saw it."

“这让我很震惊……在一些州和市和县，你会看到人们挤在酒吧里的电视片段，如果你看过的话，这是一个超级传播的事件。”

Young people may think they are not going to get dangerously ill, and get careless, Fauci said.

福奇说:“年轻人可能认为他们不会得危险的病，所以就粗心了。”

"But what they forget is their societal responsibility to not propagate the outbreak because if they get infected, they're likely going to infect someone else who then might infect someone who really is vulnerable and will have a serious severe consequence."

“但是他们忘记了他们的社会责任，即不传播疫情，因为如果他们被感染，他们很可能会感染其他人，而这些人又可能感染那些非常脆弱的人，从而造成严重的后果。”

And people are spreading misinformation, making the virus even harder to fight.

人们正在传播错误信息，使病毒更难对付。

"The one thing that bothers me is the amount of things that aren't evidence-based, and we've seen examples of that in the United States like claims that certain drugs have a great positive effect when there's no scientific evidence," Fauci said.

福奇说:“让我感到困扰的是，有那么多的药物是没有证据支持的。我们已经在美国看到了这样的例子，比如，在没有任何科学证据的情况下，某些药物却能产生巨大的积极效果。”

"And yet it gets ingrained and I and my colleagues have to spend a lot of time trying to debunk that. And you're in the middle of a pandemic and you're trying hard to address all the appropriate issues, it is truly a waste of time to have to debunk nonsense."

但这种想法已经根深蒂固，我和我的同事们不得不花很多时间来揭穿它。你正处于一场大流行之中，你正努力解决所有恰当的问题，揭穿那些无稽之谈真是浪费时间。”

Fauci also cautioned that just because coronaviruses are in the spotlight, people should not forget the flu.

福奇还警告说，仅仅因为冠状病毒是焦点，人们不应该忘记流感。

"The one thing I've learned throughout the years is don't put anything past the flu -- don't take anything for granted," he said during the MSNBC interview.

他在接受MSNBC采访时表示:“这些年来我学到的一件事就是，不要忘记流感，不要把任何事情视为理所当然。”

There "a hint of potential good news" when it comes to flu season. In Australia, where the flu season just ended, "They have had the lightest flu season in memory -- which most people think is because they're doing things to prevent SARS-CoV2 infection with masks, distancing, avoiding crowds, outdoor more than indoor.

当流感季节来临时，会有“潜在的好消息”。在流感季节刚刚结束的澳大利亚，“他们经历了记忆中最轻的流感季节——大多数人认为这是因为他们在做一些事情来防止SARS-CoV2感染，使用口罩，保持距离，避开人群，待在室外而不是室内。

He added that if Americans can do this, he's optimistic the country will have a light flu season too.

他补充说，如果美国人能做到这一点，他乐观地认为美国也将迎来一个轻微的流感季节。
