囚犯故意感染新冠求释放?

 Amber看世界 2021-05-21

Two groups of inmates at a Los Angeles County jail tried to infect themselves with the coronavirus by sharing water and a mask, and within two weeks 30 prisoners tested positive, authorities said Monday.

美国有关部门于本周一称,洛杉矶某监狱的两组囚犯试图通过共用水和面具来感染新型冠状病毒,两周内就有30名囚犯的检测结果呈阳性。

Sheriff Alex Villanueva at a briefing showed surveillance videos from two dormitory units at the North County Correctional Facility in Castaic.

治安官亚历克斯·维兰纽瓦在新闻发布会上展示了卡斯泰克北部郡教养院两间宿舍的监控录像。

The footage captured inmates in one unit sharing a container of hot water and others in a second unit sniffing a mask.

录像显示,其中一个单元的囚犯在共用一个装有热水的容器,另一个单元的囚犯则在嗅着面具。

Two of the 30 inmates, one from each unit, were later released from the jail as part of the department's effort to reduce the prisoner population systemwide, according to Bruce Chase, the department’s assistant sheriff of custody operations.

警察局负责监管行动的助理警长布鲁斯·蔡斯表示,作为警局在全系统范围内减少囚犯数量的努力的一部分,这30名囚犯中有两人后来被释放。

Villanueva said the inmates used hot water to try to raise their temperatures just before a nurse checked them. 

维拉努埃瓦说,就在护士检查囚犯之前,他们用热水试图提高体温。

An elevated temperature is a symptom for coronavirus.

而体温升高是新冠病毒的症状之一。

The sheriff said the inmates mistakenly believed that if they were infected they would be freed.

警长说,犯人们错误地认为,如果他们被感染,就会被释放。

“It's dismaying and it's disheartening,” he said.

“这真是令人震惊而又沮丧,”他说。

None of the 30 inmates required critical care when they were sick, though some had moderate symptoms, Chase said. 

蔡斯说,这30名囚犯中没有人在生病时需要重症监护,但有些人的症状并不严重。

No prisoners within the county's jail system — the largest in the country — have died from the virus.

在该郡的监狱系统中(这是全国最大型的),还没有囚犯死于这种病毒。
