日本外務大臣,美國前國家安全顧問麥馬斯特(H.R. McMaster)和其他有關外交官和政界人士,都意識到台灣海峽的緊張局勢正在加劇。
最近,我受到瑞典新聞媒體Dagens Industri(每日工業報)採訪,並且被問到這個問題。
中共每日的威脅不能成為台灣人民終日的恐懼。但當我們尋求與印度太平洋地區理念、利益相近國家進行安全合作時,我們必須盡力履行我們的安全職責,而非當方面希望友邦馳援而已。
我們必須在國防開支上投入更多經費,在國家安全問題上進行創新,支持我們的軍隊,例如增加對退役退伍軍人的支持和福利,為我們的軍士官提供更多元且具備挑戰的教育機會,更經常地進行裝備的革新,坦率地說,所有這些這些問題需要在今天而不是明天解決。
The Japanese Minister of Foreign Affairs, Former United States National Security Advisor H.R. McMaster, and other concerned diplomats and politicians are all aware of the tension that is growing within the Taiwan Strait.
I was recently interviewed by Swedish press outlet Dagens Industri and also addressed this issue. The CCP’s everyday threat cannot become an all-day fear for the Taiwanese people. While we seek security cooperation with like-minded countries across the Indo-Pacific, we must always fulfill our security responsibilities to the best of our abilities before looking abroad.
To that end, we must invest more in national defense expenditures, be innovative in national security issues, support our armed forces, increase support and welfare for retired veterans, work on education opportunities for our non-commissioned officers, and frankly speaking, all of these issues need to be addressed today, not tomorrow.

COVID-19與季節性流感的“華山論劍”
COVID-19和季節性流感住院患者的臨床表現和死亡風險的比較評估
英國醫學雜誌(BMJ)2020年12月15日刊登一篇對兩種疾病住院患者臨床表現和死亡風險的差異研究,發現「COVID-19患者多器官併發症表現、進入ICU乃至死亡風險都遠遠更高」。
這為COVID-19絕非“Big Flu”提供了更清楚的證據。
這項研究來自華盛頓大學醫學院(Washington University School of Medicine)和聖路易斯醫療體系退伍軍人事務部(Veterans Affairs St. Louis Health Care System)的合作團隊。從美國退伍軍人事務部資料庫中納入了2020年2月1日-2020年6月17日之間3641例以COVID-19入院的患者,以及2017年-2019年期間共12676例以季節性流感入院的患者。
研究人員在對其他風險因素進行調整後,資料顯示:
1. 在COVID-19或流感住院患者中,COVID-19患者的死亡風險是流感患者的近5倍。
在12676例流感住院患者中,有674例(5.3%)死亡,在3,641例COVID-19患者中,有676例(18.5%)死亡。
2. COVID-19患者需要呼吸器使用的可能性是流感患者的4倍,轉入ICU治療的風險是流感患者的近2.5倍。COVID-19患者住院時間也普遍更長,比流感患者平均多3天。
在兩種疾病中,死亡率最高的都是患有慢性腎病或失智症的老人、黑人患者、肥胖患者、糖尿病或慢性腎病患者。
儘管這兩種疾病都會侵襲肺部,但從全身影響來看,COVID-19對其他器官的損害也普遍更明顯。
COVID-19患者多項併發症風險遠高於流感患者,風險多高如下所列:
急性腎損傷風險是流感患者1.52倍
需要腎臟替代療法的風險:4.11倍
需要注射胰島素的概率:1.86倍
嚴重敗血症休克風險:4倍
使用升壓劑風險:3.95倍
肺栓塞風險:1.50倍
深靜脈血栓形成風險:1.50倍
中風風險:1.62倍
急性心肌炎風險:7.82倍
心律失常和心源性猝死風險:1.76倍
Troponin升高風險:1.75倍
GOT升高風險:3.16倍
GPT升高風險:2.65倍
橫紋肌溶解症風險:1.84倍
從國外的經驗,我們已經了解,一些COVID-19患者某些急性症狀可能會持續存在,難以完全康復。他們可能會感到持續的不適、極度疲勞或食慾不振。
所以大家還是要注意:勤洗手、戴口罩、保持社交距離。
圖片說明:
2019年每100名季節性流感和COVID-19住院患者的死亡,呼吸器使用和重症加護病房(ICU)的調整後累積發生率(CI為95%)
