美国社区传播已经开始,防疫工作的落实主要在各州和地方。下面是来自Ohio的一份倡议书,模版信也许可以供其它州参考。(模版信部分来自reddit,free feel to change/add as you see needed.)

如果你对美国政府这次的防疫行动不满意,请花一点时间去表达你的不满、发表你的建议。如果我们华裔要更多的参政议政,这就是一个具体的行动。如果大家都发挥监督、督促的作用,就多一点希望看到我们需要的变化。比如,最近有很多俄州选民对即将在州府举行的阿诺武术比赛表达了担忧,州长作出相应变更调整。Warren County居民通过邮件指出当地卫生部门关于Covid-19的宣传信息严重滞后,当地卫生部门两天之内全面更新了网站的防疫宣传手册。下面是一封监督联邦政府和州政府加强防疫措施的信样板,可以根据自己的意见修改后,发给州长、议员。

Self-edit:下面是修改过的版本,加上了咖啡因mm首贴里面的几个建议,写给我们州参议员的信。feel free make any changes as you see fit.

Dear XXX,

I am a constituent and I vote.

I have been following coronavirus news since mid-January when China initiated large-scale quarantine measures. Particularly recently, I have been very concerned about its rapid spread in the states, and it seems that the federal and local governments are not taking sufficient measures to contain the disease.

My concerns:

1. The U.S. government seems unprepared and public health messaging is muddled. The U.S. is not testing enough to have an accurate estimated case count. Without broader U.S. testing, we don't know what what we don't know.

2. Former FDA commissioner Scott Gottlieb just said on CNBC on March 4th that because of the lack of adequate testing in the past weeks and that we already have multiple cases of community transmission in the states, we have missed the window of opportunity for testing, but we still have the window of opportunity for mitigating, and we should seize the opportunity and no further delay any more!

3. What is your role in urging the congress and federal government to allocate funds in a timely manner to assist state and local governments in containing and mitigating the spread of COVID-19?

Particularly, I'd like to see how you help make sure efforts being put into the following areas:
- Recruit and train volunteers including retired health workers
- Local authorities have PPE such as masks to make sure our frontline healthcare professionals are properly protected
- Electronic system to track hospital beds so that a patient can make informed decisions about if and where s/he would be able to get a bed in case the symptoms become severe enough to get professional medical care.
- Alternate care sites (high schools, motels, etc. , e.g.: King county in Washington state is procuring a motel to be used as modular isolation units)

Thank you for your service to our state.
