美国150多名专家签署联名信要求重新实施封锁

“继续我们现在的政策将使感染人数和死亡人数进一步增加。这又是为了什么？健康专家提出了安全重启的标准。是时候听听他们的意见了”，威灵顿说道。

潜在疾病增加重症风险

About 41% of US adults have at least one underlying medical condition that may put them at a higher risk for severe Covid-19 outcomes, according to a new CDC report published Thursday.

美国疾病控制和预防中心上周四发布的一份最新报告显示，约41%的美国成年人至少有一种潜在疾病，这些疾病可能会增加他们感染新冠肺炎后发展为重症的风险。

The research, published in the agency's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly report, looked at five conditions that tend to put people at greater risk for more severe disease from the coronavirus: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic kidney disease and obesity.

该研究发表在该机构的《发病率和死亡率周报》上，提出以下五种潜在疾病往往使人们更有可能在感染后发展为重症，包括慢性阻塞性肺病、心血管疾病、糖尿病、慢性肾脏疾病和肥胖。

It did not include other conditions, such as sickle cell disease or organ transplants.

该研究不包括其他疾病，如镰状细胞病或器官移植。

The numbers of adults with these conditions varied by county -- from almost 1 in 4 adults to as many as two-thirds of adults in a county. In half of US counties, almost 1 in 2 adults were estimated to have an underlying condition.
