洛杉矶断水电限制聚会

The mayor of Los Angeles has said the city will be authorized to shut off water and power to properties where large parties and gatherings are held despite restrictions imposed to curb the spread of coronavirus.

洛杉矶市长表示，在已采取的限制新冠病毒传播的措施之外，该市还将被授权切断大型聚会和集会场所的水电供应。

The order targets repeat offenders who have hosted large gatherings several times during the pandemic, Mayor Eric Garcetti said.

市长埃里克•加希提表示，该命令针对的是那些在疫情期间多次举办大型聚会的"惯犯"。

It's meant to deter them from hosting parties or events in the future, during a period of the pandemic when California continues to lead the country in coronavirus cases.

这是为了阻止他们今后在疫情期间再举办聚会或活动。加州的新冠肺炎确诊病例在美国各州仍处于前列。

Garcetti called the parties "super-spreader events," attended by "super-spreader people."

加希提称这些派对为"超级传播者"参加的"超级传播活动"。
