　　(Fighting against New Coronary Pneumonia) Fuch, an authoritative infectious disease expert in the United States: The US epidemic "is developing in the wrong direction"

　　China News Service, Washington, June 30 (Reporter Shahan Ting) Fuch, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, attended the Senate hearing on the 30th local time and said that the US epidemic is currently "moving in the wrong direction." .

　　At a hearing held by the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pension Committee that day, Fauci expressed concern about the recent deterioration of the US epidemic. He said, "There are now more than 40,000 cases per day. According to this trend, I will not be surprised that it may reach 100,000 cases per day."

　　Fuch said that the epidemic in the United States is developing in the "wrong direction", and the rebound in the epidemic in some regions has placed the United States at risk. He was particularly worried about the crowds in some areas and the lack of masks. "If such behavior does not stop, we will have a lot of troubles and many people will be hurt. We must take action and take action as soon as possible."

　　According to the statistics of the United States Johns Hopkins University at 6:00 pm on the 30th, the number of confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia in the United States exceeded 2.623 million, and 127258 people died. Among the 50 states, 36 states have a rising number of new cases, of which Texas, Florida, Arizona and other epidemics are serious.

　　At the hearing on the same day, Fuchs and Redfield Director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) both emphasized the importance of wearing masks. Fudge said that wearing masks protects both himself and others. He recommends that everyone wear masks, and he will support the proposal to increase the production scale of masks and distribute them to the American people for free.

　　Redfield also said that wearing a mask is everyone's "responsibility" to stop the spread of the new coronavirus. He especially reminded young people to wear a mask when they go out.

　　Regarding the situation of the new crown vaccine, Redfield said that CDC is studying the order in which vaccines will be issued after the vaccine is successfully developed. It is reported that if the progress is smooth, the new crown vaccine will be put into use as soon as the end of this year or early next year. (Finish)
