Coronavirus: No evidence of community transmission yet, repeats government

印度政府重申，目前尚无证据表明印度出现社区传播

NEW DELHI: The government on Friday once again reiterated that it has found no evidence yet of any community transmission in India and that the rate of infection remains low with just 2% of 16,002 samples tested on Thursday testing positive.

新德里：周五，印度政府再次重申，目前还没有发现印度出现社区传播的证据，印度的感染率仍然很低，周四检测的16002份样本中只有2%呈阳性。

It also, once again, gave an assurance that the public would be informed if the coronavirus outbreak reached Stage 3 spread.

政府也再次保证，如果疫情进入第3阶段，公众将得到通知。

Responding to media reports that a study by the government-controlled ICMR based on random sampling tests conducted on patients with Severe Acute Respiratory Illnesses (SARI) indicated community transmission, Lav Agarwal, joint secretary in the health ministry, said that the report dealt with studies conducted in areas where prevalence of the disease was detected and not in new areas and that the positive rate revealed by the report was 1.8%.

据媒体报道，ICMR（印度医学研究委员会）对严重急性呼吸系统疾病(SARI)患者进行的随机抽样测试，表明出现了社区传播，对此，卫生部联合秘书拉夫·阿加瓦尔回应称：“该报告涉及在流行地区进行的研究，而非新增地区，报告显示的阳性率为1.8%。”

‘Infection rate not high, yet dynamic’

“感染率不高，但一直在变动”

At least 16,002 samples were tested on Thursday, of which only 320, or 2%, tested positive for Covid-19. Based on the samples collected, we can say that the infection rate is not high, although it is dynamic,” Lav Agarwal, joint secretary in the health ministry, said even as he emphasised the need for social distancing.

卫生部联合秘书拉夫•阿加瓦尔表示：“周四，至少检测了16002份样本，其中只有320份(2%)呈阳性。根据收集的样本，我们可以说感染率不高，尽管一直在变动。”他也强调了保持社交距离的必要性。

Referring to the ICMR study that shows 40% of SARI cases had not reported travel or contact history, Agrawal said the conclusions cannot be inferred as community transmission because the tests were conducted in areas where there were Covid-19 cases and people are often not able to recall exact events. “This needs further investigation,” he said.

ICMR的研究显示，40%的病例没有旅行史或接触史，阿加瓦尔表示该结论不能推断出现了社区传播，因为这些检测是在发现病例的地区进行的，人们回忆不起旅行史或接触史，需要做进一步的调查。

Government experts said even a higher incidence of the disease in an area or clusters does not necessarily add up to community transmission. Several clusters in an area or a city with rapidly multiplying cases and transmission between them amount to community transmission at stage 3.

政府专家表示，即使该疾病在一个地区或集群的发病率较高，也不一定说明出现了社区传播。在一个地区或一个城市的几个集群中，病例迅速增加，并且在它们之间互相传播，这才相当于第三阶段的社区传播。

Officials said the government is closely monitoring trends of serious cases of flu and respiratory diseases, sale of drugs relating to these conditions, and admissions in ICUs. They said a rising incidence of the disease cannot be hidden as patients with tell-tale symptoms will begin cro- wding clinics and hospitals.

官员表示，政府正在密切监测患严重流感和呼吸道疾病的病例、以及相关的药物销售和重症监护病房的入院趋势。他们说，随着有明显症状的病人开始挤满诊所和医院，发病率上升是无法隐瞒的。

“Today, the challenge is not local or community transmission, but whether we are following all the precautionary and containment measures. There is no community transmission in the country yet, but we need to remain aware and alert,” he said.

阿加瓦尔表示：“目前，我们面临的挑战不是局部或社区传播，而是我们是否遵循预防措施。印度还没有出现社区传播，但是我们需要保持警惕。”

Joke...No travel history and no community spreading...that is contradictory isn't it? dont lie here please ...the deaths and rise in cases everyday tells the sorry state of affairs....the cases are rising even under lock- down...Height of faking

笑话……出现无旅行史的病例，还没进入社区传播阶段？

这不是自相矛盾吗?

别撒谎了吧……

确诊病例和死亡病例每天都在上升，这说明了事态的严重性。即使在封城期间，病例数量仍在上升。政府太虚伪了。

When Feku and his stooges still want to pretend to be asleep, it's very hard to wake them up. This mindset of denial also explains why India has wasted precious two months to prepare for the coronavirus.

莫迪和他的手下还在装睡，很难把他们叫醒。这种一味否认的心态也正好说明为什么印度会浪费两个月的宝贵时间，本来可以做好准备应对疫情的。

Live in fools paradise.. This govt is fooling the people. First Modi said in 21 days I'll flatten the curve by lockdown. Nothing happened. Now extending the lockdown by 15 more days.. And this will continue indefinitely for an year.. People be prepared.. Don't be fooled by this fool. At the end of this, mire people die if starvation than coronavirus did.

我们活在傻子的天堂，政府在愚弄人民。莫迪先前说，封城21天后能控制住疫情，现在没有效果。如今封城要延长15天，甚至可能持续一年。人们要做好准备. .别被这个傻瓜骗了。到最后，饿死人将比死于冠状病毒还要多。

We are short of testing kits, but still meed to prioritsise testing and to reach rhe objective of 2million testing per say within a week or 10daya.

还在掩盖真相？事实摆在面前了。印度已进入社区传播阶段。需要实施全面封锁，每天至少检测200万人。我们缺少检测工具，需按病情轻重进行测试，力争在一周或10天内检测200万次。

Many people who are testing positive have no travel history abroad or came in direct contact with a covid person. This means their Source of Infection cannot be detected.. Still government is saying we haven't reached stage 3. Are they in denial mode?

很多检测呈阳性的人没有出国旅行史，也没有直接接触史。这意味着没找到他们的感染源。现在政府说印度还没有进入第三阶段，他们想一直否认吗?

当局努力让人们保持冷静。大多数每天关注新闻的文化人都知道，社区传播至少在两周前就开始了，但没有公布，担心没文化的人知道后会闹事，造成大混乱。

It is fine that government wants to hide the information of community transmission to avoid further chaos but then it should do much more to stop the spread.

政府隐瞒社区传播的消息以避免造成混乱是可以理解的，但是政府也应该采取更多措施，努力阻止病毒传播啊。
