"People of all ages" can be infectedwith the novel coronavirus, elder people and people with pre-existing medicalconditions are more like to suffer, the WHO said.

VIII.书面表达

假如你是李华,给留在衡水过寒假的留学生朋友Jack写一封电子邮件, 告知其目前新型冠状病毒肺炎的形势, 请他注意防护。要点如下:
2注意防护,如减少外出,带口罩外出,勤洗手等。
注意:1、可适当增加细节, 使行文连贯;
1.CNN关于新型冠状病毒疫苗的最新报道 (疫情发展变化中)

vaccine疫苗
infect 传染;使感染
coronavirus 冠状病毒
health care worker 医护人员
genetic code 基因序列
coronavirus 冠状病毒,这样称呼的原因是这种病毒在显微镜下呈冠状,像一顶王冠。而 “王冠”一词在拉丁语中是corona 。按西方学术概念名称使用拉丁语(或古希腊语)的习惯,人们将corona与virus 放在一起构成合成词coronavirus,即“冠状病毒”。(virus 一词也来自拉丁语)
(CNN) — Ateam of scientists in Texas, New York and China are at work on a vaccineagainst the new virus that has infected lots of people worldwide. The NationalInstitutes of Health (NIH) is also working on a vaccine. It will take a fewmonths until the first phase of the clinical trials get underway.
这种新型病毒是一种冠状病毒,与引起SARS(重症急性呼吸系统综合征)的病毒属于同一科。SARS于2002年在亚洲被首次报道,导致700多人死亡。自2012年以来已经导致800多人死亡的中东呼吸综合征(MERS)也是由一种冠状病毒引起的。
“Thelesson we’ve learned is coronavirus infections are serious and one of thenewest and biggest global health threats,” said Dr. Peter Hotez, a vaccinescientist in Houston. He added that it’s less challenging to develop a vaccinefor coronaviruses than for other viruses such as HIV or influenza. If a vaccineis developed, he said, health care workers might be among the first to receiveit because they are exposed to infected patients.
他说,科学家能够开始研制不到一个月前才被发现的病毒的疫苗,这是“非凡的”。他将这归功于中国的研究人员,因为他们迅速地对病毒的基因组进行了排序并公布了结果。他说:“当时的SARS,我们花了将近一年的时间来识别和绘制完整的基因序列。现在我们只用了几周的时间。”
2. 新型冠状病毒,你需要知道些啥
This isan outbreak of disease that started in Wuhan, one of the central Chinese cities.It’s caused by a novel corona virus that means it’s brand-new. So new thatactually it doesn’t have a name yet.
What are the symptoms?
症状是哪些?
We onlyknow about the more severe cases, which is where people have gone on to developviral pneumonia, and those people obviously end up in hospital, and all thedeaths have been amongst those people.
Where have cases beenconfirmed so far?
目前病例确认在哪里?
… andthose who have died tend actually to have underlying conditions as they say,that they’re frail, they may have heart disease or cancer already, and sothey’re vulnerable. Basically their immune systems are not very robust, andthey’re gong to find it very hard to fight off a virus.
How is this virustransmitted?
这种病毒是如何传染的?
What treatment isavailable?
有无现成治疗方法?
How serious is thisoutbreak compared to others in the past?
和过去相比,这次爆发有多严重?
And thatwas largely because nobody had ever seen it before, but also the death rate wasat around 10%. And here so far we’re talking about a death rate of 2%, which isa lot less and it does look as if many of those people actually have hadunderlying health problems, which would make it more likely that they woulddie. They could equally have died of flu, so you have to put it into that context,I think.
