But as we have warned, that has the potential to change quickly." 美國疾管中心: 這病毒可能將會變成大流行，對美國大眾的立即性風險仍然不高，但如同我們已經示警的，這可能很快的發生變化 The Trump administration recently requested $2.5 billion in emergency funds to prepare the U.S. for a possible widespread outbreak of coronavirus. Critics, though, are pointing out that money might not be necessary if the administration hadn’t spent the past two years largely dismantling government units that were designed to protect against pandemics. 川普政府最近請求25億美金緊急基金用於美國防備冠狀病毒可能的大規模爆發，然而，評論家指出，如果政府沒有在過去兩年大量拆解功能為預防瘟疫的政府單位，這筆錢也許不是那麼必要 The cuts started in 2018, as the White House focused on eliminating funding to Obama-era disease security programs. In March of that year, Rear Adm. Timothy Ziemer, whose job it was to lead the U.S. response in the event of a pandemic, abruptly left the administration and his global health security team was disbanded. 預算刪除始於2018，白宮專注於消除歐巴馬時期的疾病安全專案的資金，該年3月，負責瘟疫事件的Rear Adm. Timothy Ziemer突然離開政府工作，他的全球健康安全團隊被解散 That same year, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) was forced to slash its efforts to prevent global disease outbreak by 80% as its funding for the program began to run out. The agency, at the time, opted to focus on 10 priority countries and scale back in others, including China. 同一年，美國疾管中心用於全球疾病擴散預防的投入被迫削減80%，因該專案的資金開始用盡，該中心當時選擇集中於10個優先國家且減少其他國家的規模，包含中國 Also cut was the Complex Crises Fund, a $30 million emergency response pool that was at the secretary of state’s disposal to deploy disease experts and others in the event of a crisis. (The fund was created by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.) 複雜危機基金也被刪減了緊急反應準備金的3000萬美金，此為國務院用於危機時派遣疾病及其他專家。(該基金為前國務卿希拉蕊克林頓所設立) Overall in 2018, Trump called for $15 billion in reduced health spending that had previously been approved, as he looked at increasing budget deficits, cutting the global disease-fighting budgets of the CDC, National Security Council (NSC), Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and Health and Human Services (HHS) in the process. 2018整年，川普刪減了原本已被核准的150億美金健康支出，視其為預算赤字，刪除了疾病管制局、國土安全部、衛生及公共服務部用於全球疾病打擊的預算 The effects of those cuts are being felt today. While the CDC announced plans to test people with flu-like symptoms for COVID-19, those have been delayed and only three of the country’s 100 public-health labs have been able to test for coronavirus. The administration’s request for additional funding came roughly two weeks after officials said HHS was almost out of funding for its response to the virus. 那些預算的刪減到今天變的有感，當美國疾管署宣佈針對Covid-19對人員進行類流感症狀測試，已被造成延遲，美國的100個公眾健康實驗室中僅有3個實驗室能夠進行冠狀病毒的測試，川普政府的追加預算，是在官員表示衛生及公共服務部用於處理該病毒的資金幾乎用完後約兩個星期後所提出。 -- 心得，加了預算，預算要轉化成防疫能量也還要時間，美國也不太妙 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 116.241.10.157 (臺灣) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/nCoV2019/M.1582862316.A.1E0.html
