近日全球媒體報導台灣超前部署COVID-19防疫成效,最大方贊助醫藥研發的超級富豪比爾.蓋茲(Bill Gates)也在專訪中大讚是防堵疫情(keep at bay)的全球榜樣,連國際媒體《時代》(Time)都向總統蔡英文邀稿分享歷程,讓台灣出盡鋒頭。
【防堵疫情淺談】
to keep at bay 阻止、防堵
A:Johns Hopkins University had predicted that Taiwan would be one of the hardest-hit countries in the world.
(約翰霍普金斯大學曾預言台灣將是全球疫情最慘重國家之一。)
B:Turned out our government's aggressive measures have paid off and successfully kept COVID-19 at bay.
(結果政府超前部署有成,防堵COVID-19大舉蔓延。)
rationing 定量配給
A:Thanks to the previous export ban and the rationing plan, people in Taiwan can now buy masks easily.
(多虧之前禁出口與限量策略,現在台灣人才容易買到口罩。)
B:Exactly, most of the worst affected countries don't even have enough supplies for their medical staff.
(沒錯,許多疫情嚴重的國家連醫護人員都不夠用呢。)
