澳洲新闻 (ABC新闻快递) 澳大利亚出台新规 所有抵澳人员须自我隔离14天

Two more Australians have died from coronavirus, as tough border control measures to slow the spread of the disease have been enacted¹ overnight. Under new rules which came into effect at midnight, people returning from overseas are being forced to self-isolate for 14 days. They'll face heavy penalties and possible detention² if they don't comply. Cruise ships from foreign ports have also been banned from docking for the next 30 days. It comes as two more Australians have died from COVID-19, taking the national death toll³ to five.

又有两名澳大利亚人因感染冠状病毒死亡，而旨在减缓该疾病扩散的严格边境管控措施已于夜间颁布。根据午夜生效的新规，所有海外入境人员必须自我隔离14天。不遵守规定者将面临重罚，并可能被拘留。外国港口出发的游轮也被禁止停靠澳大利亚，为期30天。新规颁布时，澳大利亚新增两例新冠肺炎死亡病例，全国死亡人数升到5人。

The banning of events for more than five hundred people has thrown the world of arts, entertainment and sport into turmoil⁴. Performers and athletes now face an uncertain future, while tens of thousands of ticket holders⁵ await refunds⁶. The acclaimed⁷ theatre production of Harry⁸ Potter and the Cursed Child is expected to close in Melbourne today until further noitce. Meanwhile large sporting fixtures⁹ are set to take place in empty stadiums — if they go ahead at all.

500人以上的活动被禁止，这使艺术、娱乐和体育界陷入混乱。表演者和运动员现在面临着不确定的未来，而数万名持票者则在等待退款。备受赞誉的戏剧作品《哈利波特与被诅咒的孩子》将于今天在墨尔本停演，等待进一步通知。与此同时，大型体育比赛将空场进行——前提是这些比赛照常举行。

Countries in Europe are facing unprecedented¹⁰ restrictions¹¹, with restaurants and bars closed in France and people confined to their homes in Spain. 47 million Spaniards are now in lockdown, Spain has reported more than six-thousand-three-hundred cases and 196 deaths. There has also been a massive spike¹² of deaths in Italy — which has recorded a one day record of 368. Now, that's taken the number of deaths in Italy to more than 18-hundred, and there are fears the death toll there could exceed that in China.

欧洲各国正面临着前所未有的限制，法国关闭餐厅和酒吧，西班牙要求民众待在家里。目前西班牙有4700万人行动受限，该国报告了超过6300例病例，其中196例死亡。意大利的死亡人数也出现大幅上升，该国一天之内的新增死亡病例达到创记录的368例。这使意大利的死亡人数超过1800例，人们担心该国的死亡病例可能会超过中国。
