The threat of emerging infectious diseases to global health and the economy, trade, and tourism has never abated. Pandemics can spread rapidly around the world because of the ease of international transportation. Among the most salient examples are the Spanish flu of 1918, the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) outbreak of 2003, and the H1N1 influenza of 2009. Intermittently, serious regional epidemics, such as Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) in 2012, Ebola in West Africa in 2014, and the Zika virus in Central and South America in 2016, have also reared their heads.
1. the threat of ⋯⋯的威脅
2. emerging infectious disease 新興傳染病
3. abate (v.) 減少;消除
4. salient examples 顯著的例子
5. regional epidemics 地區流行疫情;地區性流行病
6. rear their heads(令人不悅之事)發生;出現
新興傳染病對全球人類健康及經貿旅遊的威脅從未間斷過,舉凡1918年西班牙流感、2003年嚴重急性呼吸道症候群(SARS)、2009年H1N1新型流感等爆發的全球大流行,抑或2012年中東呼吸症候群冠狀病毒感染症(MERS)、2014年西非伊波拉出血熱、2016年中南美洲茲卡病毒感染症等導致的區域大流行,皆因國際航空運輸而加速散播到全球各地,造成全球衛生安全不可避免的傷害。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Today, a novel form of pneumonia that first emerged in Wuhan, China, at the end of 2019 and has since been classified as coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has caused a global pandemic. As of April 20, 2020, World Health Organization data showed that 2.24 million people had been confirmed as having the disease, with 152,551 deaths in 211 countries/areas/territories. Taiwan has not been spared.

8. be classified as 被分類為⋯⋯
9. a global pandemic 全球大流行
10. be confirmed as 被確認為⋯⋯
11. be spared 不被傷害;被赦免
更有甚者,2019年底從中國武漢傳出的不明原因肺炎,現已在全球各地爆發大流行,截至WHO在2020年4月8日的統計數據,全球已有1,353,361名確診病例、79,235名死亡,影響範圍擴及211個國家/區域/地區,臺灣亦無從倖免。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
As of April 20, Taiwan had tested a total of 55,476 persons showing 422 confirmed cases of COVID-19, of which 55 were indigenous, 343 imported, and 24 are Navy members currently serving in the fleet. Taiwan has reported just six deaths; 203 people have been released from the hospital after testing negative. Despite its proximity to China, Taiwan ranked 123rd among 183 countries in terms of confirmed cases per million people. This has shown that Taiwan’s aggressive efforts to control the epidemic are working.
12. as of 截至⋯⋯
13. confirmed cases 確診病例
14. indigenous 本土的
15. proximity to 鄰近
16. in terms of 就⋯⋯而言

截至4月20日止,我國已累計檢驗55,476例,共發現422起確診病例,其中本土55例、境外移入343例以及敦睦遠訓支隊24例。我國目前6例死亡;經三次採檢均為陰性的出院者203例。我國在地理位置上雖鄰近中國,然每百萬人口確診數在國際間排名約第123名,顯示臺灣防疫工作成效顯著。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
A crisis anywhere readily becomes a problem everywhere. Global health security requires the efforts of every person to ensure an optimal response to public health threats and challenges. Taiwan, though not a member of WHO, cannot stand alone and must be included in the fight against such threats and challenges. 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.

疾病無國界,星星之火足以燎原,地方疫情控制不好即可能造成全球大流行。因此,維護全球衛生安全亟需全體人類共同努力,確保最佳量能因應公共衛生威脅與挑戰。我國雖非WHO會員,但無法獨善其身、置身於全球衛生安全之外,故秉持世界公民之責,恪守國際衛生條例2005(IHR 2005)規範,主動向WHO通報確診病例,
★★★★★★★★★★★★
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. Taiwan has uploaded the genetic sequence of COVID-19 to the Global Initiative on Sharing All Influenza Data (GISAID). Taiwan has worked with global partners to respond to the threat of COVID-19 to ensure that global health is not imperiled by a lack of communication and transparency.
24. communicate with 與⋯⋯交流(資訊、思想或感情等)

★★★★★★★★★★★★
We urge the WHO and related parties to acknowledge Taiwan’s longstanding contributions to the international community in the areas of public health, disease prevention, and the human right to health, and to include Taiwan in WHO and its meetings, mechanisms, and activities. 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.

development goals examples 在 Khairudin Samsudin Facebook 的精選貼文
So what does it take to be a cut above the rest? Here are some of the things you can think and improve on that should be enough for a week.
1. Know your purpose
Are you wandering through life with little direction - hoping that you'll find happiness, health and prosperity? Identify your life purpose or mission statement and you will have your own unique compass that will lead you to your truth north every time.
This may seem tricky at first when you see yourself to be in a tight or even dead end. But there's always that little loophole to turn things around and you can make a big difference to yourself.
2. Know your values
What do you value most? Make a list of your top 5 values. Some examples are security, freedom, family, spiritual development, learning. As you set your goals for 2020 - check your goals against your values. If the goal doesn't align with any of your top five values - you may want to reconsider it or revise it.
The number shouldn't discourage you, instead it should motivate you to do more than you can ever dreamed of.
3. Know your needs
Unmet needs can keep you from living authentically. Take care of yourself. Do you have a need to be acknowledged, to be right, to be in control, to be loved? There are so many people who lived their lives without realizing their dreams and most of them end up being stressed or even depressed for that matter. List your top four needs and get them met before it's too late!
4. Know your passions
You know who you are and what you truly enjoy in life. Obstacles like doubt and lack of enthusiasm will only hinder you, but will not derail your chance to become the person you ought to be. Express yourself and honor the people who has inspired you to become the very person you wanted to be.
5. Live from the inside out
Increase your awareness of your inner wisdom by regularly reflecting in silence. Commune with nature. Breathe deeply to quiet your distracted mind. For most of us city slickers it's hard to even find the peace and quiet we want even in our own home. In my case I often just sit in a dimly lit room and play some classical music. There's sound, yes, but music does soothe the savage beast.
6. Honor your strengths
What are your positive traits? What special talents do you have? List three - if you get stuck, ask those closest to you to help identify these. Are you imaginative, witty, good with your hands? Find ways to express your authentic self through your strengths. You can increase your self-confidence when you can share what you know to others.
7. Serve others
When you live authentically, you may find that you develop an interconnected sense of being. When you are true to who you are, living your purpose and giving of your talents to the world around you, you give back in service what you came to share with others -your spirit - your essence. The rewards for sharing your gift with those close to you is indeed rewarding, much more if it were to be the eyes of a stranger who can appreciate what you have done to them.
Self-improvement is indeed one type of work that is worth it. It shouldn't always be within the confines of an office building, or maybe in the four corners of your own room. The difference lies within ourselves and how much we want to change for the better.

[Founders Who Want to Learn About the Marketing of Sharing on Social Channels]
If a founder feels marketing and content development is critical for startup success, what does your team need to be good at?
I read advice from marketing people about how to do marketing online. In a startup, I think a lot of this advice isn't relevant, because it assumes that founders have a product and a market fit, and that all they have to do is:
1. Have a message
2. Pay for distribution of this message.
In my opinion, this is useless. This assumes that you have a long history of owned media and a long history of product development.
As an early stage founder, you do not have these things. I would bet on it.
In early product development, your product development and your community development are interconnected.
Your product evolves and your community grows, if you are able to feed that community with content that enables them to give you feedback on your mission, your product and your goals.
Marketing, in this case, has a very different methodology than "paid advertising" or "content distribution."
Marketing in this case is more like sharing and linking to people, building a network. It is best done in social media channels, which are inherently bi-directional, interactive, and identity-focused.
In my opinion, the two things you should be helping your team achieve in this "marketing-as-a-sharing" activity are:
1. Finding ambassadors for your cause, and people who support your mission
2. Audience members who find your content compelling and can work as carriers of your content into other social channels
I keep this generally as two things, so that it's easier to group these ideas into general categories of action:
1. Talking to people and sharing with them ideas and their own stories and yours
2. Creating compelling content
If you can do these two things in social media, you can achieve:
1. Demographic, personality, and behavioral data about your community / customers
2. An increasingly expanding customer and audience base that builds these data in a network effect.
So, how do you do it?
Here are just three tips that will help you:
1. Learn to interview your audience, and write about them and link to them in your channels
2. Learn to take photos of your community and customers and post those pics on your social channels and link to them
3. Learn to look through data and figure out where and who is consuming that data so that you are able to push more content to those people, or find blank spots and blue ocean areas to develop more content.
Here is one example we did recently.
In LinkedIn, we posted updates about our experience with Techstars Startup Week in Taipei, and we tagged all the wonderful founders and people we met. We made sure to tag Alyssa Chen as one of the speakers.
That post is here: https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:6609976124141338624
This sharing did two things. It showed our respect and our belief in the strength of their founder community and the Taiwan community, and it also helped share our audience (and our audience's views of the market) with them so that they could learn more about us.
This same activity can happen in your own channels. Over time, it leads to reputation building and information sharing. It also grows the whole pie for everyone.
After all, being a founder is about being part of a community of people who help each other, share with each other and support each other through almost anything.
I will continue these tips in next week's post by using specific examples of how this can be done, so stay tuned.
