📰 Why Covid-19 Is Spreading Again: Fatigue, Colder Weather, Eased Restrictions

Cases have ebbed in Sunbelt states like Arizona but have gone up throughout parts of U.S.

📌 這篇文章跟進Covid-19的最新情況。標題提了三個原因為什麽病毒再擴散。注意ebb這個動詞，本意是退潮，這裡引申指個案數目下降。

New coronavirus cases hit their highest level since mid-August on Wednesday, a sign of a fall surge predicted by public-health officials.
For the eighth time since October began, newly reported cases nationally ticked above 50,000, fueled by simmering outbreaks in every region of the country.

For the past week, the seven-day average of new cases was outpacing the 14-day average in more than 40 states and Washington, D.C., according to a Wall Street Journal analysis of Johns Hopkins University figures. When the seven-day average is higher than the 14-day average, it suggests cases are rising.

📌 這兩段交代個案數字的變動。hit their highest level 達到最高的水平，a fall surge 秋天激增，the seven-day average 七天平均數，the 14-day average 14天平均數都是很管用的用語。

Hospitalizations also have swelled across the U.S. in recent weeks, though deaths haven’t yet surged. Deaths often lag behind new cases and hospitalizations, given the duration of the disease. The seven-day average of daily deaths attributed to Covid-19 has been hovering around 700 for about three weeks, down from around 1,000 two months ago.

The U.S. has more fatalities than any other country in the world—more than 217,600 since the pandemic began. But it doesn’t have the highest percentage of cases that are fatal. About 2.7% of reported cases in the U.S. have been fatal, according to data from Johns Hopkins. That figure has declined in recent months as treatments have improved and testing has expanded, allowing more mild and asymptomatic cases to be detected. Since the summer, younger people have made up a growing share of new U.S. cases.

📌 這兩段針對住院數字和死亡數字。swell (腫脹)和hover (盤旋)是生動的動詞。文章指出美國的死亡人數 (fatalities) 是全世界最高的，但是以個案百分率來算，不是最高的。原因是治療改善了和測試被擴大。

A number of factors are likely contributing to the rise, some epidemiologists and public-health researchers said. The virus has spread to more rural counties and other communities, exposing vulnerable populations that hadn’t yet experienced it significantly and who are now reacting instead of taking steps to prevent the virus, public-health researchers said.

Some people have grown tired of restrictions on their movements and might be taking more risks than they did in the spring, they said. Mixed and inconsistent messaging from federal and local officials over preventive measures has sowed confusion and complacency. Some local governments have eased restrictions on businesses and requirements to wear masks. Meanwhile, college students returned to campuses, leading to some spreading of the virus, and the onset of cooler weather has led many Americans indoors, where the virus is more transmittable, the public-health researchers said.

📌 這兩段解釋個案數字上升。被提出的原因包括：一些人開始厭倦針對移動的限制 (restrictions)，聯邦和地方官員 (federal and local officials) 就預防措施 (preventive measures) 所發出的訊息混合的(mixed) 和不一致 (inconsistent)。大學生回到校園 (college students return to campuses) 和更涼快的天氣開始 (the onset of cooler weather)也是原因。

【同學投稿】《深夜cert case的二三事》

午夜時分，電話響起。
「你好，medical houseman。」
「要麻煩你certify個COVID positive case，屋企人係隔離啊。」

到隔離病房後，我在護士站裡粗略看了一下病人的病歷。
「唔係話屋企人黎左咩？我頭先係出面見唔到有人喔。」
「佢老婆同個仔都positive，而家係同一個cubicle裡面啊。」

我穿起保護裝束，走進隔離病房。
「你好，我係今晚當值醫生，而家要同伯伯做啲檢查。」
「醫生係咪黎certify我爸爸啊？」
「要做埋檢查先話得到你知，或者先生可以同媽媽睇住電視先，我做完檢查仔同你傾好冇？」

於是我硬着頭皮，第一次在家屬的注目下為病人進行檢查。（註：一般來說，certify case前，醫生會請家屬到病房外等候，待完成檢查後再與家屬交待。）
「伯伯，而家同你做少少檢查啦。」

進行檢查的同時，病人的兒子低聲安慰坐在輪椅上的媽媽。
「阿媽你要堅強啲啊，阿爸走左我得番你架咋，要堅強啲啊知唔知到啊⋯⋯」

完成檢查後，我移步到家人跟前。
「啱啱完成檢查，證實做伯伯已經走左，死亡時間係⋯⋯。其實伯伯本身都年紀大，加上原本肺功能差，之前主診醫生都有同你地傾過，如果插喉嘅話，伯伯會辛苦之餘，對佢都未必有幫助。你地自己屋企人傾過之後，都想伯伯可以舒服啲。我諗伯伯有兩位陪住，都算走得安詳。之後伯伯遺體嘅安排會有護士同你地交代，希望先生同太太節哀順變。」
「唔該醫生。多謝你啊。」

我想該說謝謝的是我。謝謝這位兒子兼病人在悲痛之時，仍能理解父親去世並非醫護不努力，仍能堅強地安撫和鼓勵一同患病的媽媽，仍保持對醫護的尊重和支持。

大家常云要支持醫護，現實卻是：當血庫告急社會賢達卻無動於衷（可詳閱前六）、當疫情擴散防疫政策卻朝令夕改、當醫護壓力爆煲有關當局卻宣佈凍薪⋯⋯

到頭來還是不及病人的一句「多謝醫生」來得合時。是該哭還是該笑呢？

Around midnight, my dect phone rang.
“Hello, medical houseman.”
“Hi, there’s a COVID positive case needs you to certify him. His family are here as well.”

When I arrived at the isolation ward, I took a brief look through his medical history at the nursing station.
“Didn’t you say his family were here? I didn’t anyone out there in the lobby.”
“Oh. Both his wife and his son are positive for COVID as well. So they’re now staying in the same cubicle.”

I put on my full PPE and went into the cubicle. For the first time ever, I certified a patient in front of his family. (Usually in our daily practice, we ask family members to wait at the corridor while the doctor is doing the physical examination for the patient.)
“Good evening, Sir. I’m tonight’s on call doctor. I’ll examine your father in a minute. Meanwhile, may I ask for your help to accompany your mother while I’m doing the examinations.”

The son was gently comforting his wheelchair-bound mother while I was certifying the father.
“Mom, please stay strong. Now that dad’s passed away, I’ve only got you with me, so please hold on.”

It was hard not to tear up listening to his soft but desperate words. And after performing all the necessary examinations, I approached the son and the wife.
“I’m sorry to notify you that Mr X was certified at ...... His premorbid conditions weren’t that great, and now COVID has taken its toll on him. Previously, the case doctor had discussed with you that intubation wasn’t our first option, in view of his advanced age and poor premorbid lung functions. And the rest of the family also agreed that comfort care was a better option. I believed that Mr X has had his last hours well spent with you and Mrs X on his sides. The nurse will help you with the upcoming arrangements. I’m really sorry for your loss and all that your family has gone through.”

The son replied in the most sincere tone, “Thank you doctor. Thank you for being here.”

In fact, I think it’s me who should say thank you to this gentleman. Thank you for believing in our efforts, despite we’ve lost our patient. Thank you for comforting his mother, despite he too had just lost his father. Thank you for being supportive, despite he too was a patient.

How ironic it is when government propaganda stressed so much on supporting medical staff, few supportive acts has been done. When our blood banks were in such great shortage that not even patients with a platelet count of 1 could be transfused, none of those in power cared to encourage blood donations. When the the third wave of COVID epidemic was taking away lives, the government policies were slow and confusing, not to mention effective. When medical staffs were on the verge of breakdown, the government just announced a pay freeze.

In the very end, nothing was more supportive than a sincere “thank you” from the already suffering patients. And I’m not sure if this is really something to be thankful for.

Good Night （晚安）

👇中文版本在英文下👇

This song’s about 3 months’ old. I posted a few weeks ago that I recorded a new song I’d written for a TV show theme song. Good Night is actually the song I wrote for that TV show, but they chose a different song of mine instead.

The show has quite a dark theme, so the song’s verse is quite dissonant and menacing. I tried to imagine what happens when an evil person dies - do fallen angels take him down to Hell? If so, why would a truly evil person be punished there? More likely the demons would enjoy his company and appreciate his wrongdoings, but also mourn his passing because he cannot continue doing terrible things on Earth.

What makes someone become a monster – is it intrinsic, or created behaviour? Do they know what they are doing is wrong and try to stop themselves, is it uncontrollable? If so, do they regret what they do, do they hate themselves for it? If so, then they are also victims, and death may be a relief to them. So the chorus lyrics are about a descent into Hell, but they also represent relief of worldly pain, hence the lighter melody.

I then started thinking about forgiveness - if Christianity says anyone is capable of redemption, then why can’t an evil person love and be loved? I tried to represent this by putting a dissonant verse melody and notes at odds with the lyrics, which are quite sweet, and show that some even this monster is cared for on his death bed, and will be missed.

This was written just as Covid-19 was getting very serious, and I guess the situation affected what I wrote.

這首歌是我最近三個月內寫的，原本是為了一部電視劇創作的主題曲，但最後他們選了另一首我的歌。

電視劇的主題有點黑暗，所以這首歌也是比較沉重的。我在想，罪惡的人死了之後到底會什麼發生。是墮落天使見到他， 把他的靈魂帶去地獄嗎？如果那個人真的罪惡那為什麼下去是種懲罰？魔鬼跟罪惡的人應該彼此欣賞吧，很開心在一起，魔鬼也應該不希望這個壞人離開凡間，因為在地球上，罪惡的人可以做魔鬼喜歡看的事。

魔鬼又是怎麼來的呢？ 是與生俱來的嗎，還是後天遇到什麼讓他變成魔鬼？魔鬼知道他們在做惡嗎，還是無意的，無法控制的？如果說不能控制，那他們會後悔自己做過的惡嗎，或者會因此恨自己嗎？如果會，那魔鬼其實很可憐的，他們也是受害者，死亡對魔鬼來說有可能也是減輕他的負擔。所以雖然副歌的歌詞代表這個惡人下地獄，旋律還是比較輕快的。

然後我在想，寬恕是什麼？ 如果基督教說所有的人，不管有多罪惡都可以被救贖，那為什麼這個罪惡的人不值得被愛？ 所以雖然主歌的旋律比較沉重，歌詞其實比較甜蜜，罪惡的人快死掉的時候還會有人陪著他，愛上他。

我寫這首歌的時候，剛好是新冠狀病毒很嚴重的時間， 我覺得這也有影響到這首歌的歌詞和旋律。

Lyrics 歌詞：

Blossom falling early, watched from our bed,
Gently, you stroke my hair and kiss my head,

Knowing what you love you cannot keep，
Your hot tears fall and burn,
they sear my cheeks,

The cards are down,
Read them and weep,
Read them and weep

Fallen angels guide me,
Lay roses at my feet,
As I’m slowly fading,
they cradle me as they weep

She knows (I can’t breathe), she knows;

I’ll soon be gone

Delirious dreams give way to serene strains,
A quiet sadness lurks ‘midst their sweet refrain,

The cards are down,
Read them and weep,
Read them and weep

Now the light shines through me, shade soothes my aching limbs,
Lost soul released into the arms of keening Seraphim

She knows (I can’t breathe), she knows (I can’t breathe), she knows

That I’m gone.

Lyric:
No matter how deep my wounds might be,
I ignore them, as though they do not exist.
All the scars are eradicated,
Through the wind and the sunlight.
The pain impacts me with its entire might,
I have buried all the grief I have endured,
Buried it deep down in my heart and piled it high,
Building a tower of sadness.

Forget the scenes I saw,
Forget the pain I felt,
Try not to exude tears,
Try not to conceal my wounds.
Look! The death of my beloved,
And all the farewells.
Feelings do not harm me,
I must become emotionless.
All the sorrow must be gone,
Walk away and leave it behind,
I will never collapse,
I will never cease.
Emotions consolidate,
Into bricks of grief.
Brick by miserable brick,
Witness the tower arise.

Enter the tower.
Enter the tower.
Enter the tower.
Enter the tower.

Lyric:
Hold my breath,
Close my eyes,
Cross my fingers,
Kneel down on the ground.
Drifting breeze,
Cicadas’ lullaby.
Feel the swaying leaves,
And this hazy dusk.
Sweat slides gently off my face,
Heartbeat slows right down,
Darkness ebbs away.
The wooden floor and the twilight sun,
Illuminate the floating dust.

Discover the wounds,
Peacefully observe,
Recall all the regrets,
Ignore the sense of guilt.
Every moment of joy is gone,
Neglect without consideration,
Every thought must be erased,
No mind in me at all.

Open eyes wide with no conscious thoughts,
Rise up tall as though no gravity exists,
Reach my hand towards the sharpened sword,
Tie the saya to my belt.
Draw the radiating blade,
Raise my hand and stare ahead,
Caress the edge with my spirit,
Commune with the blade and become one.

Exhale and slash through the air,
Hear the sound of the slicing sword,
Destroy the imaginary foe,
Prideless lancinate dissonance.
Stay mindless with no care for life,
Watch the waves of internal silence,
Lacunar thoughts kill sense of self.
Empty mind.

歌曲由Owen Fung創作，包括作曲、填詞、編曲，歌曲題目為《Car Crash》，用一個有趣幽默的角度看死亡。

歌詞：
After the car crash that gone straight on your pelvis
C5 |G5
Your life finally has a full stop
From that sentence on there won’t be another word
Only the forums keep going on
They all have shrieked that oh no oh why is he dead
Sadly nobody knew the answer
The truth is only hidden in your stolen mind
Therefore nobody could help you

Pre-Chorus*
I love your flesh and blood, I love your soul
May you give more please?
Oh sorry, but death will be a stage you must pass through
By then I would come and find you

Chorus^
Your blood, your soul
It is the best nutrients for me
Your fate, your luck
You are just some healthy tasty food
You are just some healthy tasty food x2

Verse 2
Your friends are so sad that they made a funeral
But what ceremonies they have done
Just walking round and round beside your dead body
And playing some very loud music
What is the point of doing these ceremonies?
Is it they want to be dead with you
But if they want to die why don’t they suicide
OK I will find them tonight

Repeat Pre Chorus*
Repeat Chorus^

Bridge

C’mon you all why you are all panicking to that
Another tragedy would come after a few years
You should be prepared for the death when it comes to you
You should not be sad it is just a normal person
Repeat Chorus^
