数百名印度教徒聚会喝牛尿，因为他们觉得牛尿具有抗冠状病毒的药用价值

Hundreds of Hindu worshippers in India hosted a cow urine drinking party on Saturday in the belief that it will ward off cornavirus.

周六，数百名印度教信徒聚在一起喝牛尿，他们相信这能赶走病毒。

There is not yet a vaccine available for the virus, which is swee across the world and has so far infected more than 140,000 people, with more than 5,000 deaths.

目前还没有针对新冠病毒的疫苗。该病毒正席卷全球，迄今为止已经感染了14万多人，造成5000多人死亡。

But a group called the Akhil Bharat Hindu Mahasabha (All India Hindu Union) hosted the urine-drinking 'party' on Saturday in Delhi, the country's capital, in the hope of shielding themselves.

一个名为Akhil Bharat Hindu Mahasabha(全印度印度教联盟)的组织周六在印度首都德里举办了喝尿“派对”，希望能强身健体。

It was attended by around 200 people and organisers hoped to host similar events elsewhere in India, which has seen 84 cases, with two deaths.

大约有200人参加了这次活动，组织者希望在印度其他地方举办类似活动。印度已经出现了84起病例，其中2例死亡。

'We have been drinking cow urine for 21 years, we also take bath in cow dung,' said Om Prakash, a person who attended the party.

参加聚会的奥姆·普拉卡什说，我们喝牛尿已经喝了21年了，我们还在牛粪堆里洗澡。

'We have never felt the need to consume English medicine.'

“我们从来没觉得有必要吃西药。”

Chakrapani Maharaj, the chief of the All India Hindu Union, posed for photographs as he placed a spoon filled with cow urine near the face of a caricature of the coronavirus.

查克拉帕尼·马哈拉杰是全印度印度教联盟的领袖，他摆姿势拍照，同时把盛满牛尿的勺子举在一幅冠状病毒漫画旁边。

Photos also showed groups of men and women drinking the urine from paper and ceramic cups.

照片上，一群男人和女人拿着纸杯和陶瓷喝牛尿。

Leaders from Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Hindu nationalist party have previously advocated the use of cow urine as medicine and a cure for cancer.

印度总理纳伦德拉·莫迪所在的印度教民族主义党的领导人此前曾提倡使用牛尿作为药物，用来治疗癌症。

A leader from India's north eastern state of Assam told state lawmakers earlier this month during an assembly session that cow urine and cow dung can be used to treat the coronavirus.

本月早些时候，印度东北部阿萨姆邦的一名领导人在议会会议期间告诉邦议员，牛尿和牛粪可以用来治疗冠状病毒。

Ten people who had the virus have recovered fully and the health ministry said that more than 4,000 people who had contact with the confirmed cases are under surveillance.

卫生部表示，10名感染病毒的人已经完全康复，超过4000名与确诊病例有过接触的人正在接受监测。

Yesterday, the start of the Indian Premier League, the world's most lucrative cricket competition, was postponed from March 29 until April 15 due to the pandemic.

印度板球超级联赛是全球最赚钱的板球赛事，由于新冠肺炎大流行的原因，昨日该赛事宣布从3月29日推迟至4月15日举行。

The two-month Twenty20 competition is estimated to generate more than $11billion (£8.7bn) for the Indian economy and involves cricket's top international stars like England's Ben Stokes, Australia's David Warner and India captain Virat Kohli.

据估计，为期两个月的Twenty20板球锦标赛将为印度经济带来超过110亿美元(87亿英镑)的收入，包括英格兰的本·斯托克斯、澳大利亚的大卫·沃纳和印度队队长维拉特·科利等顶级国际板球明星都将参与该赛事。

Chinese mobile-maker Vivo paid $330million (£261m) to be the top sponsor for 2018-2022 for the league.

手机厂商Vivo以3.3亿美元(2.61亿英镑)的价格成为2018-2022年英超联赛的顶级赞助商。

Before being shocked keep in mind that Western peoples use horse urine in a number of medications. Have done for years

别急着震惊，请记住，西方人在许多药物中都加入了马尿，而且已经很多年了

Capt Wilson, Brighton, United Kingdom

I lived in India for 15 years in different regions, (You cant label India and its peoples as one country) It is noticeable that peoples from all regions generally have much stronger immune systems than peoples from western or so called developed countries. As crazy as it sounds they could be right in doing this type of thing to boost immune systems, whereas the immunity of Western peoples is at an all time dangerous low due to over sanitised living and food conditions.

我在印度不同地区生活了15年，值得注意的是，印度人通常比西方或所谓的发达国家的人有更强的免疫系统。听起来很疯狂，他们通过喝牛尿来增强免疫力可能是对的。然而，由于过度清洁的生活和食物条件，西方人民的免疫力一直处于危险的低水平。
