Checking up now on the global coronavirus pandemic. On Sunday, the World Health Organization said there were more than 308.000 new coronavirus cases. That's in total worldwide and the organization says that's the biggest one day increase in infections since the disease started spreading outside China early this year.
全球冠状病毒大流行。周日，世界卫生组织(World Health Organization)表示，新增冠状病毒病例超过30.8万例。该组织表示，这是自今年年病毒开始以来，感染人数增幅最大的一天。
Brazil, India and the United States recorded the most cases Sunday but the disease is not spread evenly around the world. For example, the continent of Africa has seen fewer cases and deaths from COVID-19 than other regions. Scientists don't know why.
周日，巴西、印度和美国新增病例最多，但是这种疾病并没有在世界各地均匀传播。例如，非洲大陆COVID-19的病例和死亡人数少于其他地区。科学家们也不知道为什么。
Some think it may have to do with the antibodies Africans have developed after catching other coronaviruses. But it's a significantly different situation there than in places like Israel which just went on a second major lockdown after a surge in COVID cases. Just like the situation varies from state to state in America. It varies from nation to nation in Europe.
一些人认为这可能与非洲人在感染其他冠状病毒后产生的抗体有关。但那里的情况与以色列等地明显不同，在COVID病例激增后，以色列刚刚进行了第二次大规模封锁。就像美国各州的情况不同一样。欧洲各国的情况各不相同。
I'm Scott McLean in London where the summer is not quite over but the party definitely is. To try to tamp down a resurgence of the coronavirus starting today new rules go into effect across England which limit the maximum number of people allowed at a social gathering indoors or out from 30 people under the old rules, down to just six.
我是斯科特·麦克莱恩，在伦敦，夏天还没有完全结束，但派对已经结束了。为了遏制冠状病毒的卷土重来，新规定从今天开始在英国生效，将允许参加社交聚会的人数从之前规定的30人减少到仅6人。
Last week, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson admitted that the old rules had gotten too complicated and too confusing for people to follow, let alone for police to enforce. So he's promising that these new simplified rules will also come with stricter enforcement.
上周，英国首相鲍里斯·约翰逊认，旧规则已经变得过于复杂和混乱，人们难以遵守，警察也难以执行。因此，他承诺这些简化后的新规则执行也会更严格。

SCOTT MCLEAN, CNN INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: I'm Scott McLean in London where the summer is not quite over but the party definitely is. To try to tamp down a resurgence of the coronavirus starting today new rules go into effect across England which limit the maximum number of people allowed at a social gathering indoors or out from 30 people under the old rules, down to just six.
Last week, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson admitted that the old rules had gotten too complicated and too confusing for people to follow, let alone for police to enforce. So he's promising that these new simplified rules will also come with stricter enforcement.
