The coronavirus pandemic could kill up to 200,000 Americans and millions more could be infected, the US government's leading expert has warned.

Dr Anthony Fauci, the face of the Trump administration's coronavirus task force, made the prediction on Sunday.
美国政府新冠肺炎特别工作组首席专家安东尼·福奇博士在上周日(3月29日)做出了这一预测 。
"Looking at what we're seeing now, I would say between 100,000 and 200,000 deaths," he told CNN.
“根据我们现在所看到的 , 我认为会有10万到20万人死亡 , ”他告诉美国有线电视新闻网 。
But he quickly urged caution. "It's such a moving target," he said.
不过 , 他很快敦促人们保持谨慎 。 他说:“这一数字存在变数 。 ”
Dr Fauci added that the US, which now has the most recorded cases of the virus in the world, was the "focus" of the global outbreak.
福奇博士补充说 , 美国目前是全球新冠肺炎确诊病例最多的国家 , 是全球新冠肺炎疫情的“焦点” 。
"We've got a serious problem in New York, we have a serious problem in New Orleans, and we're going to be developing serious problems in other areas," he said.
他说:“纽约和新奥尔良疫情都很严重 , 美国其他地区的情况也可能会恶化 。 ”
"I want to see that tests are being implemented on the ground," he added. "If we can do that... then I think we can pull back on some of the restrictions."
他补充说:“我希望看到人们得到病毒检测 。 如果我们能做到这一点……那么我认为我们可以取消一些限制措施 。 ”
来看看福奇是怎么说的:
There are at least 125,433 confirmed cases across the country, with 2,201 deaths. The United States overtook both China and Italy last week for the number of reported cases.

美国疫情最新进展
Dr Fauci's prediction came as cities across the country warned that they may soon run out of key medical supplies. Detroit, New York, and New Orleans have all sounded the alarm.
在福奇博士做出这一预测的同时 , 美国各地的城市都警告说 , 关键的医疗用品即将耗尽 。 底特律、纽约和新奥尔良都敲响了警钟 。
"We have nurses wearing the same mask from the beginning of their shift until the end, masks that are supposed to [be used] for one patient," Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer told CNN.
密歇根州州长格雷琴·惠特默告诉美国有线电视新闻网:“我们的护士从开始值班到下班都戴着同一个口罩 , 接待其他病人时原本应该更换口罩 。 ”
