前言
Foreword

新型冠狀病毒肺炎是近百年來人類遭遇的影響范圍最廣的全球性大流行病，對全世界是一次嚴(yán)重危機(jī)和嚴(yán)峻考驗。人類生命安全和健康面臨重大威脅。
The Covid-19 global pandemic is the most extensive to afflict humanity in a century. A serious crisis for the entire world, and a daunting challenge, it poses a grave threat to human life and health.

這是一場全人類與病毒的戰(zhàn)爭。面對前所未知、突如其來、來勢洶洶的疫情天災(zāi)，中國果斷打響疫情防控阻擊戰(zhàn)。中國把人民生命安全和身體健康放在第一位，以堅定果敢的勇氣和決心，采取最全面最嚴(yán)格最徹底的防控措施，有效阻斷病毒傳播鏈條。14億中國人民堅韌奉獻(xiàn)、團(tuán)結(jié)協(xié)作，構(gòu)筑起同心戰(zhàn)疫的堅固防線，彰顯了人民的偉大力量。
This is a war that humanity has to fight and win. Facing this unknown, unexpected, and devastating disease, China launched a resolute battle to prevent and control its spread. Making people’s lives and health its first priority, China adopted extensive, stringent, and thorough containment measures, and has for now succeeded in cutting all channels for the transmission of the virus. 1.4 billion Chinese people have exhibited enormous tenacity and solidarity in erecting a defensive rampart that demonstrates their power in the face of such natural disasters.

中國始終秉持人類命運共同體理念，肩負(fù)大國擔(dān)當(dāng)，同其他國家并肩作戰(zhàn)、共克時艱。中國本著依法、公開、透明、負(fù)責(zé)任態(tài)度，第一時間向國際社會通報疫情信息，毫無保留同各方分享防控和救治經(jīng)驗。中國對疫情給各國人民帶來的苦難感同身受，盡己所能向國際社會提供人道主義援助，支持全球抗擊疫情。
Having forged the idea that the world is a global community of shared future, and believing that it must act as a responsible member, China has fought shoulder to shoulder with the rest of the world. In an open, transparent, and responsible manner and in accordance with the law, China gave timely notification to the international community of the onset of a new coronavirus, and shared without reserve its experience in containing the spread of the virus and treating the infected. China has great empathy with victims all over the world, and has done all it can to provide humanitarian aid in support of the international community’s endeavors to stem the pandemic.

當(dāng)前，疫情在全球持續(xù)蔓延。中國為被病毒奪去生命和在抗擊疫情中犧牲的人們深感痛惜，向爭分奪秒搶救生命、遏制疫情的人們深表敬意，向不幸感染病毒、正在進(jìn)行治療的人們表達(dá)祝愿。中國堅信，國際社會同舟共濟(jì)、守望相助，就一定能夠戰(zhàn)勝疫情，走出人類歷史上這段艱難時刻，迎來人類發(fā)展更加美好的明天。
The virus is currently wreaking havoc throughout the world. China grieves for those who have been killed and those who have sacrificed their lives in the fight, extends the greatest respect to those who are struggling to save lives, and offers true moral support to those who are infected and receiving treatment. China firmly believes that as long as all countries unite and cooperate to mount a collective response, the international community will succeed in overcoming the pandemic, and will emerge from this dark moment in human history into a brighter future.

為記錄中國人民抗擊疫情的偉大歷程，與國際社會分享中國抗疫的經(jīng)驗做法，闡明全球抗疫的中國理念、中國主張，中國政府特發(fā)布此白皮書。
To keep a record of China’s efforts in its own fight against the virus, to share its experience with the rest of the world, and to clarify its ideas on the global battle, the Chinese government now releases this white paper.

一、中國抗擊疫情的艱辛歷程
I. China’s Fight against the Epidemic: A Test of Fire

新冠肺炎疫情是新中國成立以來發(fā)生的傳播速度最快、感染范圍最廣、防控難度最大的一次重大突發(fā)公共衛(wèi)生事件，對中國是一次危機(jī)，也是一次大考。中國共產(chǎn)黨和中國政府高度重視、迅速行動，習(xí)近平總書記親自指揮、親自部署，統(tǒng)攬全局、果斷決策，為中國人民抗擊疫情堅定了信心、凝聚了力量、指明了方向。在中國共產(chǎn)黨領(lǐng)導(dǎo)下，全國上下貫徹“堅定信心、同舟共濟(jì)、科學(xué)防治、精準(zhǔn)施策”總要求，打響抗擊疫情的人民戰(zhàn)爭、總體戰(zhàn)、阻擊戰(zhàn)。經(jīng)過艱苦卓絕的努力，中國付出巨大代價和犧牲，有力扭轉(zhuǎn)了疫情局勢，用一個多月的時間初步遏制了疫情蔓延勢頭，用兩個月左右的時間將本土每日新增病例控制在個位數(shù)以內(nèi)，用3個月左右的時間取得了武漢保衛(wèi)戰(zhàn)、湖北保衛(wèi)戰(zhàn)的決定性成果，疫情防控阻擊戰(zhàn)取得重大戰(zhàn)略成果，維護(hù)了人民生命安全和身體健康，為維護(hù)地區(qū)和世界公共衛(wèi)生安全作出了重要貢獻(xiàn)。
The Covid-19 epidemic is a major public health emergency. The virus has spread faster and wider than any other since the founding of the People’s Republic in 1949, and has proven to be the most difficult to contain. It is both a crisis and a major test for China. The Communist Party of China (CPC) and the Chinese government have addressed the epidemic as a top priority, and taken swift action. General Secretary Xi Jinping has taken personal command, planned the response, overseen the general situation and acted decisively, pointing the way forward in the fight against the epidemic. This has bolstered the Chinese people’s confidence and rallied their strength. Under the leadership of the CPC, the whole nation has followed the general principle of “remaining confident, coming together in solidarity, adopting a science-based approach, and taking targeted measures”, and waged an all-out people’s war on the virus. Through painstaking efforts and tremendous sacrifice, and having paid a heavy price, China has succeeded in turning the situation around. In little more than a single month, the rising spread of the virus was contained; in around two months, the daily increase in domestic coronavirus cases had fallen to single digits; and in approximately three months, a decisive victory was secured in the battle to defend Hubei Province and its capital city of Wuhan. With these strategic achievements, China has protected its people’s lives, safety and health, and made a significant contribution to safeguarding regional and global public health.

截至2020年5月31日24時，31個省、自治區(qū)、直轄市和新疆生產(chǎn)建設(shè)兵團(tuán)累計報告確診病例83017例，累計治愈出院病例78307例，累計死亡病例4634例，治愈率94.3%，病亡率5.6%（見圖1、2、3、4）。回顧前一階段中國抗疫歷程，大體分為五個階段。
As of 24:00 of May 31, 2020, a cumulative total of 83,017 confirmed cases had been reported on the Chinese mainland, 78,307 infected had been cured and discharged from hospital, and 4,634 people had died. This demonstrates a cure rate of 94.3 percent and a fatality rate of 5.6 percent (see charts 1, 2, 3 and 4).China’s fight against the epidemic can be divided into five stages.

（二）第二階段：初步遏制疫情蔓延勢頭
Stage II: Initial Progress in Containing the Virus

（1月20日至2月20日）
(January 20-February 20, 2020)

全國新增確診病例快速增加，防控形勢異常嚴(yán)峻。中國采取阻斷病毒傳播的關(guān)鍵一招，堅決果斷關(guān)閉離漢離鄂通道，武漢保衛(wèi)戰(zhàn)、湖北保衛(wèi)戰(zhàn)全面打響。中共中央成立應(yīng)對疫情工作領(lǐng)導(dǎo)小組，并向湖北等疫情嚴(yán)重地區(qū)派出中央指導(dǎo)組。國務(wù)院先后建立聯(lián)防聯(lián)控機(jī)制、復(fù)工復(fù)產(chǎn)推進(jìn)工作機(jī)制。全國集中資源和力量馳援湖北省和武漢市。各地啟動重大突發(fā)公共衛(wèi)生事件應(yīng)急響應(yīng)。最全面最嚴(yán)格最徹底的全國疫情防控正式展開，疫情蔓延勢頭初步遏制。（圖5）
The situation became most pressing with the rapid increase in newly confirmed cases in China. As a crucial step to stem the spread of the virus, the Chinese government took the decisive measure to close outbound traffic from Wuhan. This marked the beginning of an all-out battle to protect Wuhan and Hubei from the epidemic.The CPC Central Committee set up a leading group for novel coronavirus prevention and control and sent the Central Steering Group to Hubei. A joint epidemic prevention and control mechanism and in due course a mechanism to facilitate resumption of work were set up under the State Council. Resources were mobilized nationwide to assist Hubei and Wuhan. Major public health emergency responses were activated across China.The most comprehensive, stringent and thorough epidemic prevention and control campaign was launched nationwide, and initial progress was made in curbing the spread of the virus (see Chart 5).

（1）1月20日，中共中央總書記、國家主席、中央軍委主席習(xí)近平對新型冠狀病毒感染的肺炎疫情作出重要指示，指出要把人民生命安全和身體健康放在第一位，堅決遏制疫情蔓延勢頭；強(qiáng)調(diào)要及時發(fā)布疫情信息，深化國際合作。
(1)January 20: President Xi Jinping, also general secretary of the CPC Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, gave important instructions on fighting the novel coronavirus.
