全球新冠确诊破2.5亿例

截至11月8日，全球新冠肺炎累计确诊病例已经超过2.5亿例。

Infections are still rising in 55 out of 240 countries, with Russia, Ukraine and Greece at or near record levels of reported cases since the pandemic started.

在全球约240个国家和地区中，仍有55个新冠病毒感染率仍在上升，其中俄罗斯、乌克兰和希腊的新增确诊病例数正在达到或接近疫情暴发以来的最高水平。

The daily average number of cases has fallen by 36 percent over the past three months, but the virus is still infecting 50 million people worldwide every 90 days due to the highly transmissible Delta variant.

虽然在过去3个月中，全球日均新增确诊病例数下降了36%，但因为有高度传染性的德尔塔变异毒株的传播，全球每90天仍有5000万人感染新冠病毒。

More than half of all new infections reported worldwide were from countries in Europe, with a million new infections about every four days.

全球近期报告的所有确诊病例中，有一半以上来自欧洲国家，该地区大约每四天就有100万人感染新冠病毒。

More than half the world's population has yet to receive a single dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, a figure that drops to less than 5 percent in low-income countries.

在全球范围内，仍有超过一半人口尚未接种新冠疫苗。在一些低收入国家，接种率甚至不到5%。
