“中国制造有病毒”？耿爽：别穿！别戴！别用！
20日，外交部发言人耿爽在例行记者会上针对“中国制造的产品携带病毒”的论调回应称，如果说“中国制造有毒”，那就别用！
耿爽表示，新冠肺炎疫情发生以来，我们总能看到一些人不负责任地散播谣言、制造恐慌。我不知道这些人发表这种荒谬无知、耸人听闻言论的目的是什么，是哗众取宠，还是欺世盗名？
Since the outbreak, we have seen some people acting in an irresponsible manner, spreading rumors and creating panic. I wonder what these people are up to by making such absurd, ignorant and sensational comments? Is it grandstanding or deception?
耿爽表示，中国是制造业大国，也是防疫和医疗物资生产和出口大国。中国在全力抗击本国疫情的同时，克服自身困难，已经并将继续向有需要的国家提供力所能及的帮助，并为他们在华进行商业采购提供便利。中方负责任的行为得到了国际社会的普遍赞誉。
China is a leading manufacturer as well as a major producer and exporter of medical supplies for epidemic response. As the pandemic is spreading around the world, many countries are facing a shortage of medical supplies such as masks, protective suits and ventilators. They hope to get assistance or purchase items from China. While combating the epidemic at home, China has provided and will continue to provide assistance to countries in need to facilitate their commercial procurement in China. Our responsible practice has been universally praised by the international community.
耿爽指出，面对新冠肺炎疫情肆虐，如果有人说“中国制造有毒”，那么请说这种话的人，不要戴中国制造的口罩，不要穿中国生产的防护服，不要用中国出口的呼吸机，以免染上病毒。
For those who label products made in China as "contaminated with virus", they'd better not wear those made-in-China masks, protective suits and ventilators.
最后，耿爽强调，在这场国际社会与新冠病毒的斗争中，请尊重事实、尊重科学、尊重他人。最重要的是，尊重自己。即使科学暂时无法到达的地方，文明还会到达。
In this global fight against the coronavirus, everyone needs to respect facts, respect science, respect others and, above all, respect oneself. Because where science cannot arrive for the time being, humanity will.
