美媒刊發新冠逝者名單
The front page of Sunday's New York Times features the names of 1,000 people who have died of COVID-19 in the US.
《紐約時報》5月24日的頭版刊登了1000名在美國死於新冠病毒民衆的名字。
Calling it "an incalculable loss", the newspaper clarified that "the 1,000 people here reflect just 1% of the toll".
該報將此稱爲"無法估量的損失"，並澄清說"刊登的這1000人只是死者中的1%。"
"They were not simply names on a list. They were us," the paper said.
《紐約時報》表示，他們不僅是名單上的名字，他們曾經是我們。
"Numbers alone cannot possibly measure the impact of the coronavirus in America, whether it is the number of patients treated, jobs interrupted or lives cut short."
數字不可能全面衡量新冠疫情對美國的影響，不管是接受治療的病人數量、被中斷的工作還是戛然而止的生命。
Over 96,000 people have died of the coronavirus in the US, the largest toll among all the countries in the world, according to the Center of Systems Science and Engineering of Johns Hopkins University as of Sunday morning.
約翰·霍普金斯大學系統科學與工程中心5月24日上午發佈的數據顯示，全美已有逾9.6萬人死於新冠病毒，是全球死亡人數最多的國家。
