新奇事件簿 医生警告不要使用消毒剂来治疗冠状病毒（在线收听）

Doctors around the world have issued strong warnings for people not to use disinfectant to treat coronavirus. Their plea follows suggestions on Thursday by US President Donald Trump that disinfectant could potentially be used to treat COVID-19. President Trump said: "I see the disinfectant, where it knocks the virus out in one minute....Is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside or almost a cleaning?...It gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs." On Friday, Mr Trump said his comments had been made "sarcastically". The White House press secretary said the media took the comments out of context and ran "with negative headlines".

世界各地的医生已经发出强烈警告，提醒人们不要使用消毒剂治疗冠状病毒。周四，美国总统唐纳德·特朗普建议消毒剂或许可以被用来治疗COVID-19，之后医生们提出了该请求。特朗普总统称：“我看到消毒剂能够在一分钟内消灭病毒......有没有办法可以向体内注射消毒剂之类的？......让它进入肺部，对肺部产生很大影响。”周五，特朗普表示他的讲话是在‘讽刺’。白宫新闻秘书表示，媒体断章取义，用“负面头条”来报道总统。

Disinfectants are hazardous and toxic substances. They can be poisonous if ingested and have fatal consequences. Reckitt Benckiser, maker of the best-selling disinfectant Lysol, warned that its product should "under no circumstance" be injected or ingested. The president of the American Medical Association also joined in the chorus of concern regarding President Trump's comments. She said: "It is unfortunate that I have to comment on this, but people should under no circumstances ingest or inject bleach or disinfectant." She added: "Rest assured, when we eventually find a treatment for or vaccine against COVID-19, it will not be in the cleaning supplies aisle."

消毒剂是危险且有毒的物质。它们是有毒的，如果摄食消毒液会造成致命后果。畅销消毒剂Lysol制造商Reckitt Benckiser警告称，“在任何情况下”都不得注射或摄食其产品。美国医学会主席也对特朗普总统的言论表示关注。她说道：“我不得不对此发表评论，这真是不幸，但是在任何情况下大家都不得摄食或注射漂白剂或消毒剂。”她补充道：“请放心，当我们最终找到治疗COVID-19的方法或疫苗时，它不会出现在清洁用品的货架上。”
