全國(guó)心理疾病聯(lián)盟的醫(yī)學(xué)主任肯·達(dá)克沃斯說(shuō):“要記住,在流行病之前,五分之一的美國(guó)人被診斷出有心理健康問(wèn)題,這一點(diǎn)非常重要。”他說(shuō),這些人仍然需要獲得心理衛(wèi)生保健。
Duckworth also stressed the importance of telehealth services and phone sessions for people without internet access.

White House has new guidelines for schools
白宮對(duì)學(xué)校有新的指導(dǎo)方針
As President Donald Trump continued to call for students to return to classrooms, the White House released eight new recommendations for schools.
美國(guó)總統(tǒng)唐納德·特朗普繼續(xù)呼吁學(xué)生重返課堂,白宮為學(xué)校發(fā)布了8條新建議。
The recommendations are primarily basic hygiene tips and don't outline what schools should do if they find coronavirus cases in their halls.
這些建議主要是一些基本的衛(wèi)生建議,并沒(méi)有列出學(xué)校在他們的教室里發(fā)現(xiàn)新冠病毒病例時(shí)應(yīng)該做什么。
The President said the school strategy mirrors the White House's national approach.
總統(tǒng)表示,學(xué)校的策略反映了白宮的全國(guó)策略。
"We cannot indefinitely stop 50 million American children from going to school and harming their mental, physical, emotional and academic development and inflicting long-term, lasting damage," he told reporters at the White House.
他在白宮對(duì)記者說(shuō):“我們不能無(wú)限期地阻止5000萬(wàn)美國(guó)兒童上學(xué),從而傷害他們的心理、身體、情感和學(xué)業(yè)發(fā)展,造成長(zhǎng)期、持久的傷害。”
The recommendations include ensuring that students and staff "understand the symptoms of Covid-19" and requiring "all students, teachers and staff to self-assess their health every morning before coming to school."
建議包括確保學(xué)生和工作人員“了解Covid-19的癥狀”,并要求“所有學(xué)生、教師和工作人員每天早上到校前對(duì)自己的健康狀況進(jìn)行自我評(píng)估”。
The recommendations also encourage the use of masks, but do not require students, teachers or staff to wear masks. They also "require students, teachers and staff to socially distance around high-risk individuals," however it's unclear how schools will go about doing that.
建議還鼓勵(lì)使用口罩,但不要求學(xué)生、教師或工作人員佩戴口罩。他們還“要求學(xué)生、教師和工作人員與高危人群保持社交距離”,然而學(xué)校將如何做到這一點(diǎn)尚不清楚。
Trump said the federal government will provide up to 125 million masks to school districts around the nation.
川普表示,聯(lián)邦政府將向全國(guó)學(xué)區(qū)提供多達(dá)1.25億個(gè)口罩。
Kellyanne Conway, counselor to the President, said earlier that despite the resources the federal government will provide, the decision to reopen schools will still need to be made at a local level.
總統(tǒng)的顧問(wèn)凱莉安妮·康威早些時(shí)候表示,盡管聯(lián)邦政府將提供資源,但是否重開(kāi)學(xué)校的決定仍需要在地方層面做出。
