台灣連續 31 天無本土案例
所有前線人士辛苦了！
#作息破壞者 做的最棒的大概就是宅，寫分析文章
來看部長投書〈外交家雜誌〉的英文書寫
標題簡明扼要
Global Health Security: A Call for Taiwan’s Inclusion
應納台灣加入全球衛生安全行列
副標應該是編輯下的
Taiwan’s minister of health makes the case for the country’s inclusion in the WHO.
台灣衛福部長請願加入世衛
make the case for 為某事請願
文章脈絡完整，全文較長，讀到中間會發現很多我們也不知道的政府努力，讀到最後覺得實在鏗鏘有力！大家多點耐心 #順時中
開頭從過去數十年的全球疫情談到當今疫情，一句作結：Taiwan has not been spared. 台灣未能倖免，代表台灣同樣受疫情嚴重衝擊，同理心訴求歐美讀者繼續閱讀
以下選幾個特別的句子跟大家分享
In the 17 years since it was hit hard by the SARS outbreak, Taiwan has been in a state of constant readiness regarding the threat of emerging infectious disease.
SARS重擊以來的十七年，台灣隨時處在預備狀態，以面對伺機竄起的疾病感染威脅
constant readiness 持續的預備狀態
短短兩個字，讓人想到好多醫護總是待命的辛苦！
接著描述全民一心的嚴密檢疫，到後來海軍敦睦艦的狀況，以及平息，小結：This has shown that Taiwan’s aggressive efforts to control the epidemic are working.
台灣的積極防疫起了功效
aggressive 積極的
epidemic 流行病
漂亮的句子：
Disease knows no borders.
疾病不分國界
記得主詞是第三人稱單數所以動詞要加 s
接下來談到我們比較熟悉的國內防疫措施我先跳過
有興趣到留言區看全文英文表達
再來個巧妙的句子：
A crisis anywhere readily becomes a problem everywhere.
任何一地爆發危機，即成全球危機
一句話之內，用 readily become （立即變成）連結，從 anywhere 變成 everywhere
再來就是呼籲全球公衛缺一不可，讓台灣加入 WHO

然後就是讓我很驚艷和學習的地方，原來政府做了這麼多
1. 遵照 IHR 2005 國際衛生條例，向 WHO 回報確診數
Taiwan has fulfilled its responsibilities as a global citizen and abided by the International Health Regulations 2005 (IHR 2005) in notifying the WHO of confirmed COVID-19 cases.
fulfill responsibilities 負起責任，好用的搭配詞
abide by 遵循
notify 告知
2. 聯絡了超多國家的疾管單位（CDC）共享情報
Moreover, Taiwan has communicated with other countries such as Japan, the Republic of Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, the United States, Canada, Italy, France, Switzerland, Germany, the United Kingdom, Belgium, and the Netherlands, as well as the European Center for Disease Prevention and Control, to share information on confirmed cases, travel and contact histories of patients, and border control measures.
border control 邊境管制
measures 措施
3. 上傳病毒基因序列到 GISAID 全球共享流感數據倡議組織
Taiwan has uploaded the genetic sequence of COVID-19 to the Global Initiative on Sharing All Influenza Data (GISAID).
genetic 基因的
sequence 序列

最後是溫情呼籲，要好好照顧公衛，不該因政治考量，拒台灣於門外
If it is indeed the WHO’s mission to ensure the highest attainable standard of health for every human being, then the WHO needs Taiwan just as Taiwan needs the WHO. Yet Taiwan has long been excluded from the WHO due to political considerations.
如果 WHO 的宗旨真的是要確保全人類健康，那麼 WHO 跟台灣是互相需要彼此。然而台灣卻長期因政治考量被排拒於外
ensure 確保
exclude from 排擠
considerations 考量
Taiwan will continue to work with the rest of the world to ensure that all enjoy the fundamental human right to health as stipulated in the WHO Constitution. Echoing the mantra of the United Nations’ 2030 Sustainable Development Goals, no one should be left behind.
台灣會持續協力確保全人類享有健康基本人權，如同 WHO 組織法所述。呼應聯合國 2030 永續發展目標的口號，沒人該落單
all 全人類
fundamental 基本的
right to 對於某事的權利
stipulate 規定
echo 呼應
mantra 口號

謝謝部長理性與感性兼具的投書！
希望全球疫情早日平息，也接納台灣為國際社會一員
