The White House is downplaying a U.S. government report projecting a near doubling of COVID-19 daily deaths in the United States by June 1.

白宫对美国政府发布的一份报告轻描淡写。该报告指出,6月1日之前,美国的新冠死亡人数或近翻番。

White House spokesman Judd Deere took issue Monday with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report that also forecasts about 200,000 new coronavirus cases each day by the end of the month. That's up from 25,000 cases now.

白宫发言人贾德·迪尔周一与国家疾病控制与预防中心的一份报告持不同意见。这份报告还预测在本月结束之前,美国将有近20万个新增新冠病例。如果该预测为真,那相当于比现在增长了2.5万个新病例。

The information is based on government modeling pulled together in chart form by the Federal Emergency Management Agency and published Monday by The New York Times.

该信息是基于美国政府的模型做出的,该模型是通过将联邦紧急事务管理署汇总制作的表格而做出的。该信息目前已于周一发布于《纽约时报》。

In a statement Monday, Deere said it was not a "White House document nor has it been presented to the Coronavirus Task Force or gone through interagency vetting1." The spokesman also said, "the health of the American people remains2 President Trump3's top priority, and that will continue as we monitor if the efforts by states to ease restrictions4."

在周一的一则声明中,迪尔表示这份报告并非“白宫文件,并未提交给过冠状病毒特遣部队,也没有经过跨部门审核。” 迪尔还表示,“美国人民的健康始终是特朗普总统的最大关切,在我们监督各州是否放松管制的时候也会秉持这一关切。”

The government report said the number of coronavirus fatalities5 could reach 3,000 a day in four weeks, up sharply from the current figure of about 1,750, according to The New York Times.

据《纽约时报》表示,这份报告写道,新冠的死亡人数在未来四周可能达到每天3000人的程度,这比目前的每天近1750个死亡病例升高了很多。

The United States has sought to combat the spread of the coronavirus for about seven weeks, but President Donald Trump has ended his stay-at-home directives that shut down much of the U.S. economy through April.

美国已与抗击新冠近7周,但特朗普已停止了闭门不出的禁令。该禁令已导致4月期间美国经济大幅衰退。
