Coronavirus footprint expands to Tamil Nadu, Ladakh; 34 confirmed

印度新冠确诊34例，蔓延至泰米尔纳德邦、拉达克

NEW DELHI: Covid-19 expanded its geographical footprint in India on Saturday with the health ministry confirming three more positive cases — two from Ladakh in the north, and one down south in Tamil Nadu. Both the union territory and the southern state didn’t have a single confirmed case of coronavirus before this.

新德里：周六，印度卫生部确认了3例新增确诊病例——2例来自北部的拉达克，1例来自南部的泰米尔纳德邦，新冠病毒扩大了在印度的地理足迹。在此之前，联邦属地和南部各邦均没有一例冠状病毒确诊病例。

In the northeast, Assam went on a sanitising and quarantining drive on realising that the 76-year-old US national, who was confirmed positive for Covid-19 in Bhutan on Friday, had spent about a fortnight in India. His itinerary included a Brahmaputra cruise and a resort in Jorhat. The Union health ministry said over 150 people, who came into contact of the 76-year-old, have been place under surveillance. Cases were also reported in Uttar Pradesh (6 in Agra; 1 each in Noida and Ghaziabad), Delhi (3), Kerala (3) and Telangana (1). In addition to this, 16 Italian nationals who had travelled across Rajasthan in February last week were found to be positive for Covid-19.

在印度东北部，阿萨姆邦发现一位76岁的美国人(上周五在不丹确诊为covid19阳性)已在印度呆了大约两周，开始进行消毒和隔离。他的行程包括布拉马普特拉河之旅和乔哈特的度假胜地。联邦卫生部表示，与76岁老人有过接触的150多人已经处于监测之下。北方邦也报告了病例(阿格拉6例，诺伊达和加兹阿巴德各1例）、德里(3例)、喀拉拉邦(3例)和特伦甘纳邦(1例)。此外，上周（2月份）在拉贾斯坦邦旅行的16名意大利人的Covid-19检测呈阳。

The Union health ministry said on Saturday the total number of confirmed cases stands at 34 now. “The two who tested positive in Ladakh had travelled to Iran recently. The Tamil Nadu patient had visited Oman,” the ministry said, adding that all the patients were stable.

联邦卫生部周六表示，目前确诊病例总数为34例。卫生部表示：“这两名在拉达克检测呈阳性的人最近去了伊朗。泰米尔纳德邦的确诊病人曾去过阿曼。”，并补充说所有病人的情况都很稳定。

The ministry defines confirmed cases as those who tested positive twice for Covid-19, once from a local testing facility and a second time from the National Institute of Virology (NIV), Pune. In the suspected category are those who have tested positive once locally but re-confirmation from NIV is awaited.

卫生部将2次新冠病毒检测呈阳性者定义为确诊病例，1次检测由自当地检测机构进行，第2次有由位于普纳的国家病毒学研究（NIV）所进行。疑似病例中为那些在当地第一次检测呈阳性，但仍在等待NIV再次确诊的人。

The two from Ladakh had gone to Iran for pilgrimage, said local authorities. One of them flew from Tehran to Delhi on February 26 and landed in Ladakh two days later. The other patient had landed in Delhi on February 22 and arrived in Ladakh on February 27. Both of them have been kept in isolation at SNM hospital, Leh.

当地政府称，两名拉达克确诊病例去过伊朗朝圣。其中一人于2月26日从德黑兰飞往德里，两天后抵达拉达克。另一名患者于2月22日抵达德里，2月27日抵达拉达克。两人均被隔离在列城的SNM医院。

The Tamil Nadu patient is employed in a construction company in Muscat. The 45-year-old landed in India on February 27. Tamil Nadu’s health minister C Vijaya Baskar said the 45-year-old had been isolated at Rajiv Gandhi Government General Hospital (RGGH) in Chennai and was stable.

泰米尔纳德邦病例受雇于马斯喀特的一家建筑公司。现年45岁的他于2月27日抵达印度。泰米尔纳德邦卫生部长C Vijaya Baskar表示，这名45岁的男子在金奈的拉吉夫·甘地政府总医院隔离，目前病情稳定。

Several states, including Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab, Delhi, and UP, have reported several suspected cases. In Delhi, for example, a woman who had come in contact with the 26-year-old Paytm employee from Janakpuri has tested positive in the preliminary test and her swab sample has been sent to NIV, Pune, for re-confirmation.

查谟和克什米尔、旁遮普邦、德里和北方邦等都报告了几起疑似病例。例如，在德里，一名与26岁Paytm雇员有过接触的妇女在初步检测中呈阳性，她的样本已被送往普纳的NIV再次确认。

“In all, we have three confirmed cases and one suspected case as on Saturday. More than 375 persons who may have come in their contact are under surveillance,” said an official from the Delhi health department.

德里卫生部的一名官员表示：“截至周六，我们总共发现了3例确诊病例和1例疑似病例。375逾名可能与这些病例接触的人均在接受监测。”

Medical Experts in USA are saying this Coronavirus could be as deadly as Spanish flu of 1918, the most devastating pandemic till date, with loss of 5 crore lives. Govt strategy has to be more aggressive. Coronavirus is already in India. No use of focusing on Airports alone. Now we have to focus on how to prevent internal Community transmission.

美国医学专家表示，这种冠状病毒可能与1918年西班牙流感一样致命，1918年西班牙流感是迄今为止最具毁灭性的流行病，造成5000万人死亡。印度政府必须更加积极采取预防措施。冠状病毒已经在印度传播了。只盯着机场是没有用的，现在我们必须把重点放在如何防止内部社区传播上。

Saving grace is that the virus cannot survive at temperatures above 27 degrees. The approaching summer months and rising temperatures should help wipe it out from most parts of India.
