印度农村正成为疫情新热点地区

 

NEW DELHI: After overwhelming India's megacities, the coronavirus is now moving through the country's vast hinterland.

新德里：压垮印度大城市之后，新冠病毒现在正在席卷这个国家广阔的内陆地区。

Home to nearly 70% of India's 1.3 billion population, the nation's villages have little access to healthcare and are struggling to support themselves through the country's prolonged economic slowdown.

在印度13亿人口中，有近70%居住在乡农村，几乎无法获得医疗保障，而且在印度长期的经济放缓中难以维持生计。

Initially isolated from the epidemic that has swamped the capital New Delhi and financial center Mumbai, rural areas were exposed when millions of migrant workers who lost their jobs in the cities when the government implemented a strict nationwide lockdown on March 25 went home.

疫情席卷了首都新德里和金融中心孟买。3月25日，在政府实施严格的全国封锁措施后，数百万在城市失业的民工返乡，农村地区的风险增加。

The states of Bihar, Assam, Jharkhand, Odisha and Uttar Pradesh received the most number of returning labourers - now they are also witnessing the sharpest rise in new cases in the two weeks to June 8, according to internal government estimates seen by Bloomberg. In the rural districts of Rajasthan and Karnataka, the virus is also spreading rapidly, it showed.

根据彭博社看到的政府内部估算数据，比哈尔邦、阿萨姆邦、恰尔肯德邦、奥里萨邦和北方邦接纳了最多返乡的民工——在截至6月8日的两周内，这些邦的新病例增幅也最大。报告显示，在拉贾斯坦邦和卡纳塔克邦的农村地区，病毒也在迅速传播。

Infections have now spread to 98 of the country's 112 poorest rural districts, up from 34 on April 15, according to the report from NITI Aayog, the government's planning body. Nearly 2,250 new cases were added in those districts.

根据政府规划机构NITI Aayog的报告，在该国112个最贫困的农村地区中，受感染数量已从4月15日的34个增至98个。这些地区新增了近2250例新病例。

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's administration runs the risk of a burgeoning death toll if the pandemic's spread is not checked in rural India, where under-funded health care infrastructure and poor living conditions provide fertile ground for the virus. India is already the world's fourth most affected country, and an exponential rise in cases in the villages could catapult it higher. With the crisis pushing the economy toward its first full-year contraction in more than four decades, the likelihood of increasing social unrest continues to grow.

如果农村疫情得不到遏制，印度总理莫迪领导的政府面临着死亡人数激增的风险。印度农村地区医疗设施缺乏，生活条件恶劣，为病毒提供了沃土。印度确诊病例已经位居全球第四，如果农村地区的病例呈指数级增长，疫情可能会进一步加剧。随着经济危机将印度经济推向40多年来首次全年萎缩，社会动荡加剧的可能性继续增加。

Blame goes to the moron sitting at helm , who did no planning while announcing lock down .

with only 500 cases then , time should have been given for migrant workers to safely reach home .

责任在莫迪，他在宣布封称的时候没有事先计划好。当时印度只有500例确诊病例，应该有足够的时间让民工安全返乡。

这要归功于莫迪。他下令封城，染上病毒的民工纷纷返乡，为新冠病毒打开了通往内陆的大门。在成功摧毁了经济之后，他肯定会让印度的确诊病例上升至全球第一。
