编者按： 本文来自辛辛那提日报（Cincinnati
Enquirer），是美国主流媒体对华人积极帮助社区抗疫的正面报道。在美国心脏之地俄亥俄，大辛辛那提华人以主人翁的姿态，用爱心去传递正能量，用行动去保护那些正在抗疫一线保护我们的医务人员和警察。正如他们的口号所说的：Together,
we fight Coronavirus!

这是来自美国俄亥俄州美圣市，辛辛那提北郊一个华人集居的小镇的抗疫报道（英中对照）：
MASON – Though some Chinese Americans have faced unfair backlash in Greater
Cincinnati communities since the outbreak of the new coronavirus, many are
banding together to fight the pandemic.
自新冠病毒爆发以来，尽管美国华人遭遇了一些不公正的对待（国会议员麦卡锡鼓吹“华人病毒”，必须道歉！），但是美国包括大辛辛那提地区的许多华人勇敢而坚定地站出来帮助主流社区共同抗疫。
Among others, the Alliance of Chinese Culture and Arts, the Greater Cincinnati
Chinese School and the Cincinnati Sichuan-Chongqing Friendship Association
have been part of the COVID-19 response. The groups have donated medical
personal protective equipment (PPE) to local hospitals.
大辛城地区的美中文化艺术联合会，大辛辛那提中文学校和辛辛那提川渝友好协会等华人组织都在积极行动，抗击COVID-19新冠疫情。这些团体已及时向当地医院捐赠了大量医疗防护设备（PPE）。
Mi Shen and Lanxi Song, both leaders of the Alliance of Chinese Culture and
Arts delivered more than 500 hard-to-find N95 masks. The group used their
network within the chapter organization in California to procure the masks
that fit close around the nose and mouth and effectively filtrate airborne
particles.
美中文化艺术联合会的领导者沈宓和宋岚曦向辛辛那提大学医学中心提供了500多只市场上非常难得的N95口罩。该联合会通过他们在加州分会的网络，购买了这种紧贴口鼻，并能有效过滤了空气中的有害颗粒的医用口罩。

Wright State professor, Mason resident and community outreach director Dr.
Shengrong Cai has helped spearhead the effort to help point out the
contributions Chinese/Asian Americans bring to the country and community.
赖特州立大学教授、美圣市居民和负责社区外联的蔡胜蓉博士帮助和领导了华人社区的抗疫行动，这些努力彰显了包括华裔在内的亚裔美国人对国家和社区的贡献。
Mason’s Huaxia Chinese School also procured over 300 N95 masks, 6,000 surgical
masks and other protective equipment that they have been donating since March
18 to the UC-West Chester and Atrium Middletown hospitals. Lixin Feng is the
principal of the Huaxia Chinese school who helped deliver the goods.
自3月18日以来，美圣华夏中文学校购买了300多只N95口罩，6000只外科口罩和其他防护设备，这些设备已捐赠给UC-West Chester和Atrium
Middletown医院。华夏中文学校的校长冯立新先生帮助运送了这些赠品。
Another member, Bing Yu, was able to order 16 boxes of personal protective
equipment for local hospitals.
另一位抗疫联合小组成员余冰女士为当地医院订购了16箱个人防护设备。
Their work is no different than what any American would do, they say.
他们说，他们所做的与其他美国人会去做的没有分别。
“The outbreak started in China, but that doesn’t have anything to do with
Chinese Americans,” Cai said. “We are part of this country.”
蔡胜蓉说：“疫情开始于中国，但这与华裔美国人没有任何关系。”
“我们是这个国家的一部分。”
Cai’s family has been in the United States for over 15 years and many Chinese
Americans have children that have been born in and have never left the U.S.
蔡胜蓉女士一家在美国定居了超过15年。跟他们一样，许多华裔美国人的孩子出生在美国，从未离开过美国。

Cai says a group of local mothers have engaged in a Sew Masks for Cincy
activity where they made cloth covers for N95 masks to extend the lifetime of
the masks for healthcare workers. Others have delivered lunch and dinner to
hospitals for doctors and nurses on the frontline.
蔡胜蓉说，一群当地华裔妈妈们参加了“口罩缝制”活动，他们为N95口罩制作了布套，以延长医护人员的口罩使用寿命。其他人则为医院的一线医生和护士提供午餐和晚餐。
The work is ongoing.
他们的工作还在继续。
Cai is balancing her efforts in supplying medical equipment with teaching
classes online at Wright State where she’s an associate professor of English
Language and Literatures. The coronavirus precautions now have her working at
home through the summer.
作为莱特州立大学英语语言文学专业副教授，蔡胜蓉博士在进行网上授课的同时，正在为当地医疗服务部门提供保护性设备而努力。一直到夏天，她都需要在家中工作以预防新冠病毒。
“As part of this country, Chinese Americans are doing our part to contribute
the fight against the coronavirus,” Cai said. “We are the same as everyone
else. We live in a neighborhood and help our neighbors.”
蔡胜蓉说：“作为这个国家的一部分，华裔美国人正在尽我们的力量为抗击新冠病毒做出贡献。”
“我们和其他所有人一样。我们生活在我们的社区中，为我们的邻居提供帮助。”
As an example, Cai had some N95 respirator masks at her house for home
improvement and painting projects. When she found out a neighbor’s husband
worked in urgent care where there were not enough masks, she gave hers away.
蔡胜蓉家里有一些N95防毒口罩，本来是用于家庭装修和涂漆项目的。但当她发现邻居的丈夫在缺乏医用口罩的紧急护理部门工作时，她毫不犹豫地把自己地口罩给了邻居。
“We help each other out and we are doing whatever we can,” Cai said.
蔡胜蓉说：“我们应该互相帮助，我们正在尽力而为。”
UNITED WE STAND!
TOGETHER WE STRONG!
