【看中国2020年5月17日讯】（看中國記者天琴翻譯）5月15日（星期五）中午，川普總統在白宫玫瑰花园，就疫苗开发发表演讲。之后，川普回答记者提问。
以下是川普总统答记者问，节选翻译。
THE PRESIDENT: I don’t — or lower than that. I don’t know. I don’t know. Those are the numbers that are being reported. I assume they’re correct.
總統：我沒不知道，或者（有可能）比那更低。我不知道。我不知道。報告的數字就是這樣。我認為它們是正確的。
Unlike other countries — I mean, you have some countries — obviously, you have some that are very obviously ridiculous, but our numbers are accurate numbers. We don’t do anything with the numbers one way or the other. Whatever it is —
與其它國家不同，我的意思是，其它一些國家，顯然，有一些（數字）顯然非常的荒謬，但我們的數字是準確的數字。我們不對數字進行任何捏造。是什麼樣就是什麼樣。
Q Do you have any indi- —
問：您有沒有其其它...
THE PRESIDENT: — that’s what we do. We take the numbers as reported. Okay?
總統：—我們就是這樣做的。我們以報告的數字為準。好的？
Q Do you have any indication that they could be lower than that?
問：您是否有跡象表明它們可能會低於那個數字（86,000）？
THE PRESIDENT: Oh, I don’t know. I don’t know. If they were, I’d be very happy if they were lower. I’d like to see numbers lower. I’d like to see no death at all. One death is too many. This should have never happened. This came from China. It should have been stopped in China before it got out to the world. We have 186 — it’s been updated this morning — 186 countries are affected.
總統：哦，我不知道。我不知道。如果是的話，我會很高興，如果數字更低。我希望看到更低的數字。我不希望看到任何死亡。一個人死是太多了。這本來是不應該發生的事。（中共病毒）來自中國。它本應該在中國就被阻止，不該讓向世界擴散。我們有186個國家（今天早上已更新）有186個國家受到影響。
And each country that’s affected is the same thing. Russia now is badly affected. France is badly affected. You look at what each country — and you can say “affected” or you can say “infected,” either way you want to put it.
每個受影響的國家都是一樣的。俄羅斯現在受到嚴重影響。法國受到嚴重影響。你可以看看每個國家的情況，你可以說受影響或被感染了，隨你怎麼說吧。
But you look at these countries. Look at Italy and you look at Spain and you look at all of these great countries, in many cases, how they’ve — how they’ve had to fight through this. It’s a terrible thing that happened. It could have been stopped at the source. It should have been stopped right at the source, but it wasn’t.
但是你看看這些國家。看看意大利，再看看西班牙，再看看所有這些偉大的國家，在許多情況下，他们是如何度过难关的。這是一件可怕的事情。它本该在源頭就被阻止的。它應該在源頭就被阻止了，但事實並非如此。
