靠实力上了热搜的小朋友,究竟有什么故事?( 四 )
Then on January the 23rd, news of a mysterious illness broke out a virus we now call COVID-19. This virus is highly infectious making people extremely sick and sometimes even killing them.
那个时刻 , 武汉被按下了“暂停”键 。 整个城市都被隔离了 。
At that moment, it was as if that Wuhan pushed a giant stop button and everything was put into lockdown.
自然而然 , 在“快乐大家庭”微信群里 , 担忧的消息也一个接一个地弹出 。
你们的口罩够吗?
医院的检测盒够吗?
天 , 我刚听说我的邻居感染了 。
春节本应是发红包的时候 , 此时群里发出的却是焦虑和担忧 。
Naturally, in the Happy Family WeChat group messages of anxiety and panic quickly popped up.
Do you have enough face masks?
Are we gonna have enough medical test kits?
Omg, I ve heard my neighbor just got the virus.
Spring Festival is supposed to be a time to sending out red envelopes but we began to send worry envelopes.
武汉成了一座寂静的城市
“快乐大家庭”变成了一个沉默的群组

我们的微信群每天都充斥不断攀升的数字:
确诊病例甚至死亡人数 。
社交媒体上的报道也没有改善现状 。
杂乱的消息只让人更加困惑 。
Every day, our WeChat group was bombarded with climbing figures of confirmed coronavirus cases and even deaths. Reports on social media were not helping any matters. Chaos was only causing more confusion.
云阿姨在群里发信 。 告诉我们她的邻居刚因冠状病毒去世 。 邻居年仅48岁 , 平时非常健康 。 怎么一个好好的生命就这样消逝了呢?
Then a message from Auntie Yun popped up telling us her neighbor had just died of the virus. He was only 48 years oldand had been quite healthy. How could somebody like that just die?.
我们开始焦虑害怕 , 接着群里一片沉寂 , 没有人说话 。 武汉成了一座寂静的城市 , “快乐大家庭”变成了一个沉默的群组 。
We were agitated and frightened. Then there was dead silence. Nobody would say anything. Wuhan became a ghost town and Happy Family became a ghost group.
正能量打破沉默

几天以后 , 彭阿姨的一条消息打破了大家的沉默 。 她是一名基层工作者 , 疫情爆发后一直在社区服务 , 做环境卫生的安全监测工作 。
A few days later a piece of news regarding my Auntie Peng broke the general silence of the group. She is a service worker and had been serving the community with sanitation inspections since the dawn of the outbreak.
