外交部發(fā)言人汪文斌2月3日表示，中國已正式加入“新冠疫苗實(shí)施計(jì)劃”，并同世衛(wèi)組織等發(fā)起方保持密切溝通，為把疫苗作為全球公共產(chǎn)品、實(shí)現(xiàn)發(fā)展中國家的可及性和可負(fù)擔(dān)性而共同努力。

At the request of the World Health Organization (WHO), China has decided to provide 10 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines to COVAX, mainly to meet the urgent need in developing countries. This is another important measure taken by China to promote equitable distribution of vaccines, advance international cooperation in fighting the pandemic, and apply the vision of a community of common health for all.
應(yīng)世衛(wèi)組織方面請求，中方?jīng)Q定向“新冠肺炎疫苗實(shí)施計(jì)劃”提供1000萬劑疫苗，主要用于發(fā)展中國家急需。這是中方促進(jìn)疫苗公平分配，推進(jìn)國際抗疫合作，踐行人類衛(wèi)生健康共同體理念的又一重要舉措。

【知識點(diǎn)】

2020年10月8日，中國同全球疫苗免疫聯(lián)盟簽署協(xié)議，正式加入“新冠肺炎疫苗實(shí)施計(jì)劃（COVAX）”。這是中國秉持人類衛(wèi)生健康共同體理念（uphold the concept of a shared community of health for all）、履行自身承諾推動疫苗成為全球公共產(chǎn)品（turn COVID-19 vaccines into a global public good）的一個重要舉措。

“新冠肺炎疫苗實(shí)施計(jì)劃”由世界衛(wèi)生組織和全球疫苗免疫聯(lián)盟、流行病防范創(chuàng)新聯(lián)盟共同牽頭成立，擬于2021年底前向全球提供20億劑新冠肺炎疫苗（the initial aim is to have 2 billion doses available by the end of 2021），供應(yīng)給“自費(fèi)經(jīng)濟(jì)體（higher-income self-financing countries）”和“受資助經(jīng)濟(jì)體（lower-income funded nations）”。包括我國在內(nèi)的“自費(fèi)經(jīng)濟(jì)體”需向該計(jì)劃承諾為本經(jīng)濟(jì)體一定比例人口購買疫苗并繳納預(yù)付款，而“受資助經(jīng)濟(jì)體”無須繳納預(yù)付款，同時享受該計(jì)劃補(bǔ)貼。

汪文斌表示：

The WHO has started to review emergency use authorization for Chinese vaccines. The Chinese companies involved will continue to offer their close coordination. We hope that the WHO will finish the review process as soon as possible.
世衛(wèi)組織已開始審核中國疫苗的緊急使用授權(quán)。中國企業(yè)將繼續(xù)積極配合。希望世衛(wèi)組織盡早完成這項(xiàng)工作。

We hope that countries, with the capacity to do so, will take actions to actively support COVAX and the work of the WHO, help developing countries access vaccines in a timely manner, and make their due contributions to mankind's early victory over the pandemic.
我們希望國際社會有能力的國家都積極行動起來，以實(shí)際行動支持“實(shí)施計(jì)劃”，支持世衛(wèi)組織工作，幫助發(fā)展中國家及時獲得疫苗，為國際社會早日戰(zhàn)勝疫情作出應(yīng)有的貢獻(xiàn)。

【單詞講解】

簡單說一下due的用法，在make their due contributions中，due表達(dá)的是“ satisfying or capable of satisfying a need, obligation, or duty”，即“滿足需要，盡義務(wù)”。

這個詞常見的一個搭配是due to，相當(dāng)于because of（因?yàn)椋捎冢?，比如：The bus was delayed due to heavy snow（公交車因?yàn)榇笱┭诱`了）；但是，如果句子中出現(xiàn)的是be due to do，則是“（在某個特定的時間）將要，即將發(fā)生”，比如：The present chairman is due to retire next month（現(xiàn)任主席下個月就退休了）；此外，due還可以表示不同語境下“到期的”意思，比如：When is the baby due?（預(yù)產(chǎn)期什么時候），The rent is due at the end of the month（月底該交房租了）。

Due還可以用作名詞，表示某人“應(yīng)得的東西”，復(fù)數(shù)形式dues則通常用來表示繳納的“會費(fèi)”等，比如：give him his due（把他應(yīng)得的給他），Party membership dues（黨費(fèi)）等。

中國向多個發(fā)展中國家提供疫苗援助

In the early hours of Feb 1, a batch of inactivated COVID-19 vaccines donated by the Chinese government to Pakistan arrived in Islamabad. It was the first batch of vaccine aid provided by the Chinese government to another country.
2月1日凌晨，中國政府向巴基斯坦捐贈的一批新冠病毒滅活疫苗運(yùn)抵巴基斯坦首都伊斯蘭堡，這是中國政府對外提供的第一批疫苗援助。

Apart from Pakistan, China is also providing vaccine aid to Brunei, Nepal, the Philippines, Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos, Sri Lanka, Mongolia, Palestine, Belarus, Sierra Leone, Zimbabwe and Equatorial Guinea, altogether 13 developing countries. Going forward, we will also assist another 38 developing countries with vaccines.
