Former President Jimmy Carter and former first lady Rosalynn Carter on Saturday urged the American people to "please wear a mask to save lives" as the country continues to battle the deadly coronavirus.
值此美國持續對抗致命的新冠病毒之際，前總統吉米．卡特與前第一夫人羅莎琳．卡特週六呼籲美國民眾「請戴口罩以拯救生命」。
The couple’s Atlanta-based charity, the Carter Center, posted a photo on Twitter Saturday of the pair wearing white masks printed with the center’s logo. The picture was paired with the straightforward plea.
卡特夫婦設在（喬治亞州）亞特蘭大的慈善基金會「卡特中心」，週六在推特上貼出一張兩人戴著印有該中心標誌的白色口罩的照片。伴隨照片的還有那段直白的懇求。
Masks have become a political flash point as some Americans argue the requirement infringes upon their civil liberties. But the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention urges everyone to wear a "cloth face cover when they have to go out in public," noting that masks are critical "in case the wearer is unknowingly infected but does not have symptoms."
隨著部分美國人辯稱，戴口罩規定侵犯他們的公民自由，口罩已成為一項政治引爆點。但美國疾病管制暨預防中心敦促所有人「出門到公共場所時戴上布口罩」，指明「萬一戴口罩的人在不知情的情況下被感染但卻沒有症狀時」，口罩至關重要。
