　　“What is needed is on a scale that is unprecedented,” a senior administration official saidin an interview, speaking on the condition of anonymity because she was not allowed by theWhite House to talk on the record ahead of Mr. Obama’s announcement.

　　“所需援助的规模是前所未有的，”政府一位高级官员在接受采访时说，她要求不具名，因为白宫不允许官员在奥巴马宣布之前做公开评论。

　　The United States, a second senior administration official said, also plans to send 400,000home protective kits to the four counties in Liberia that have been hardest hit by Ebola. The kitswill include protective gear for family members, gloves and masks, disinfectants, and fever-reducing drugs.

　　政府的另一位高级官员说，美国还计划向利比里亚4个埃博拉爆发最严重的县发放40万套家用防护用品。每套包括供家庭成员使用的防护用具、手套和口罩、消毒剂，以及退烧药。

　　That is worrisome, Dr. Osterholm said, because it is difficult to care for Ebola patients withoutbecoming infected, and there is no proof that the kits will work. “We are going to endangerfamily members more by providing the kits,” he said.

　　奥斯特霍尔姆表示，令人担忧的是，由于很难在看护埃博拉患者时不被感染，这些防护用品是否有用尚未得到证实。他说，“我们提供这些用品将给家庭成员带来更大的危险。”
