《新型冠状病毒的传播途径》

新冠肺炎被发现于2019年末，于2019年12月31日被初步定性为病毒性肺炎。2020年1月7日，中国疾病预防控制中心（China CDC）从患者的咽拭子样本中鉴定出一种新型冠状病毒。新冠病毒自发现以来肆虐了六大洲上的201个国家，这个破坏力惊人的病毒是什么？它是如何进行传播扩散的？本期短视频将以一种特殊的方式，科普新冠病毒。

我的样子，就像一个王冠，人们为我取名叫冠状病毒。

我本来住在野生动物身上，结果你们人类大量杀死它们，还把它们给吃了。我现在无家可归，只能寻找新家。

就像花要结果，我也要生育子孙后代，你们人类管这叫繁殖。我要繁殖，就得破坏你们的身体，咱们可是“水火不容”呢。

现在，离我新家（病毒感染者）最近的，就是那些不知道防护的人。

I look like a crown, hence, am named coronavirus.

I had been residing in wild animals, until you humans slaughtered and devoured them. And my current state of homelessness compels me to search for a new residence.

Just like trees bearing fruits, I produce offspring, too. You human call this reproduction. For me to reproduce, I have to ravage your body, since you and I would never get along, like water and oil.

落户到你们身上最主要的途径是通过飞沫。通过你们人类呼吸道飞沫，我藏在你们的口水、鼻涕里……当你们面对面近距离（1-2米内）说话、打喷嚏或咳嗽时，我就会“趁虚而入”。但是如果每个人都好好地佩戴口罩，我就没办法“串门”了。

My favorite access to your body is through droplets. Through droplets in your respiratory tract, I hide myself in your saliva and snot……When you talk, sneeze or cough in a close distance (within 1-2 meters), I “sneak into” your body. However, I won’t be admitted in if everyone wears a mask appropriately.

你们肯定要问，如果戴好口罩不就能把我挡在外面了吗？

错！口罩可以把别人家的“兄弟姐妹”挡在外面，他们没有办法乘着飞沫跑到你们身上。但是，我还有别的办法哦，那就是通过你们的手！

No! Admittedly, masks can turn away my “siblings” of other hosts, preventing them from reaching you through droplets. However, I have another access, which is through your hands!

当你们接触了被我污染后的物体表面后，又直接用手揉眼睛、挖鼻孔、摸嘴巴……接触身体其他部位，我就可以在你们身上落户咯。

After touching an object contaminated by me, if you use your hands, rub your eyes, pick your nose, touch your mouth……or other parts of your body, I’ll be able to invite myself in.

但只要你们人类常通风、勤洗手、合理佩戴口罩、咳嗽或打喷嚏时，不直接用手捂住口鼻，而且不集中聚集在一起，我就没法在你们身上安家落户，只能逃之夭夭了。

However, so long as you humans keep your rooms ventilated, wash your hands regularly, wear masks appropriately, avoid using your hands to cover your mouths and noses while coughing or sneezing, and avoid gatherings, I could only stay away from you instead of inviting myself in.
