【CBS】飓风哈维真相VS谣言：远离这些谣言、恶作剧、骗局

In the wake of Hurricane Harvey slamming Texas and dumping epic proportions of rain causing widespread flooding in the region, the need for accurate information is ever important.

在飓风哈维和其带来的洪水肆虐德克萨斯州并在此地留下大片洪泛区之后。对准确的灾区新闻需求或许是前所未有的重要。

But in the age of the internet, false information can spread quickly online and via social media.

但是在互联网时代，虚假信息会通过社交媒体大肆传播。

CBS Houston affiliate KHOU-TV and CBS News rounded up a few rumors and the real information you need to know:

CBS（哥伦比亚广播电视公司）隶属的休斯顿电视台和CBS新闻报道了一些你应该了解的谣言和其背后的真相。

RUMOR: Pastor Joel Osteen's Lakewood Church did not assist flood victims when Harvey made landfall.

谣言：当哈维登陆时，湖木教堂的牧师约尔·奥斯汀对灾民袖手旁观。

FACT: Osteen told "CBS This Morning" that their "doors have always been open. We received people even — as soon as the water started receding," Osteen said. "We worked with the city constantly. The city set up a shelter about four miles from here that can house 10,000 people, showers, dormitories, kitchens, security, all that. They didn't need us as a shelter at that point. They wanted us to be a distribution center."

真相： 奥斯汀牧师告诉‘早间CBS’真相，他说教堂的大门一直为灾民敞开着，他们即便在洪水减退的时候也一直在收拢灾民并和为城市救灾。而且该市政府设立了一个面积四英里可容纳一万人并包括淋浴，宿舍，厨房和安保的避难所。政府不需要教堂作为一个避难所，只想让他们成为一个配送中心。

He also addressed claims that pictures showed there was not a flood risk at the megachurch (a former NBA stadium): "None of that is true. There was flooding — if we didn't have our floodgates out back here, it was within one foot. This building flooded in 2001, the whole bottom floor. It would have been a safety concern at the start," Osteen said.

他也对照片作出如下解释，大教堂（前NBA场馆）绝对没有洪水风险。谣言都是假的。的确可能会被洪水淹没，如果我们防洪闸没有正常工作，也只会有一英尺的水深。该建筑于2001年被洪水淹没了整个底层地板，这一开始就只是个安全担忧。



RUMOR: Email and social network posts that promise to help Harvey victims.

谣言： 电邮和社交网络发布各种链接募捐并承诺去救济哈维灾民。你只需点击一下并捐款。

FACT: Many link to phony websites where cybercriminals try to steal your credit card and personal info (also known as a phishing scam). Cyberthieves have been setting up fake charities where the organizers end up pocketing all the money.

真相：许多虚假链接都将窃取你的身份和信用卡信息（就是网络钓鱼）。网络罪犯经常制作假的慈善网页并把善款据为己有。



RUMOR: The city of Houston was checking immigration status before allowing you into a shelter.

谣言：休斯顿灾民管理局会根据你的移民身份来决定你能否进入避难所。

FACT: The city tweeted Monday night that they are "not asking for immigration status or papers from anyone at any shelter."

真相：城市推特周一晚上辟谣说“没这回事，任何避难所都不要求移民证或者纸质文书”

 

RUMOR: Mandatory evacuations are underway in the City of Houston.

谣言：休斯顿正在进行强制撤离。

FACT:  There are no evacuations in the city proper, the city's Office of Emergency Management emphasized. Several communities in Harris County and other areas do have mandatory and voluntary evacuations.  You can find a complete list here on KHOU-TV's website.

真相：完全没有强制疏散，市应急管理局强调哈瑞斯县确有几个区域强制或自愿撤离。大众可以在休斯顿电视台官网找到完整的撤离名单。

 

RUMOR: Houston's water supply has been contaminated by flood waters.

谣言：休斯顿供水系统给被洪水污染了。

FACT: Officials say Houston's water supply is safe to drink, despite flooding at one of the city's water plants.

真相：官方表示水是符合饮用标准的，尽管有一个水处理厂被淹了。



RUMOR: The National Guard has an 800 number for you to call to get direct help.

谣言： 国民警卫队派了800人来救我们了。并可以拨打此电话（1-713-885-3139）求救。

FACT: While thousands of National Guard troops have been mobilized to assist in the flood response, the number that's being posted on social sites is not for the guard. It is actually an insurance company. If you have a life-threatening emergency call 911.

真相：虽然成千上万的国民警卫队已经动员了灾区。但是网上流传的电话并不是警卫队的。确切的来说是一家保险公司的电话，如果你真的需要帮助请拨打9-11.

 

The U.S. Coast Guard weighed in on social media to tell victims to call 911 if they are in need of assistance and do not report your information on social media sites:

美国海岸警卫队在社交网站上反复强调，如果需要帮助，请拨打9-11而且不要在社交网站留下个人信息。

 

RUMOR: Sharks were spotted swimming in the streets.

谣言：鲨鱼被发现在淹没的街道游拽。

FACT: This is an old one. Social media sites post a photo claiming there is a shark ... and people fall for it. The photo below is not Houston and the shark was "creatively edited" in.

真相：上次看到这图的时候我还是处男，如今还是。社交网站上传了这张鲨鱼图，而且一群人上当了。照片不是休斯顿而且鲨鱼还是PS的。



However, one true story that did involve animals in the water was a pair of gators spotted in a Texas woman's fenced-in yard during Harvey.

不过，确实有动物相关的事件。在飓风期间一名女士于院子围栏处发现了一对鳄鱼。

Aleays some lowlife scammer scvmbag to take advantage of desperate people.

总有小人欺骗***利用绝望的老百姓。

Fake ICE agents. Fake insurance scams. Joel Osteen. Lowest of the low.

假移民局，假保险骗子。约尔·奥斯汀。人渣。

Did any of you see the video of all the Walmart trucks delivering food and other supplies ? That's true Americans.

有人看到那个视频吗，就是沃尔玛火车运送食物和其他补给的那个。那才是美国人。

About the water....

关于饮用水。。。

It may be safe to drink as the city says but the smart move would be to boil it anyway.

正如政府所说水是OK的，但是煮开水才是明智之举。

I don't know how well utilities are holding up, but if my understanding is correct, then most of the stoves in Harris county are natural gas (someone correct me if I'm wrong) and that's probably fairing fairly well so you can still light a fire.

我不知道能源设备是否工作良好。但是如果我没记错的话，哈瑞斯镇大多都是用天然气的(欢迎修正)而且这些炉子很可能都能正常工作，所以，你还是能生火的。

If you're out of power and really unsure and you have access to bleach or iodine, a little of either in half a gallon will kill anything that's not supposed to be there. Drop a few vitamin C tablets in afterward to kill the taste.

如果你那停电了而且真的不确定水源安全，请用1/2加仑的漂白粉和碘去清除污染。顺便用维C去去味。

Folks, getting beyond this is going to be a looong haul. Parts of New Orleans haven't yet completely come back from Katrina and there is still evidence from Sandy that things are not yet as they were on Long Island and in New Jersey.

大伙们，重建将会是漫长且艰辛的的。新奥尔良的一些灾民至今没从卡特里娜飓风灾害中恢复。有证据表明桑迪飓风肆虐过的长岛和新泽西至今也未完全恢复。

Complete recovery will not happen overnight......

不可能一夜之间就重建好的。。。。

What I know of Houston from those who used to live there and still do, is it's a very diverse city. There are people of all races, all religions, all income levels (yup, even the rich), all self identities, all abilities and all levels of education who are crown deep in the same contaminated and critter infested lake Harris county has become.

据我所知，休斯顿的人们过去生活在那里将来也会。这是个非常多样化的城市。各种各样的种族，信仰，阶级（没错包括富人）有才能的人和各个教育水平的人们们都完全深陷于受洪水污染和野兽出没的哈瑞斯镇。

So, lets stop with the political point scoring and see if those of us who live too far away or otherwise can't directly help offer something in the way of other help to mitigate this evolving slow motion disaster.

所以，让我们停止政治攻击吧，希望那些远方的或不能直接援助的人们帮助救援这个逐步而来的灾难。

Just so you know, I have dropped several Jacksons I really couldn't afford on various agencies earmarked for Houston and Harris county for relief.

我只是想让你知道，我已经好几次没去杰克森（餐饮吧）了，我已经没钱捐助那些休斯顿市和哈瑞斯镇官方的政府救济机构了。
