Pandemic response survey

疫情应对排名美英垫底

Americans rank dead last - by a long way - among citizens of more than a dozen countries who were asked whether their nation is more united now than it was before the coronavirus pandemic, according to a survey.

一项调查显示，在被问及本国民众现在是否比新冠大流行前更团结时，在十多个国家的公民中，美国人排名垫底，而且远远落后于其他国家。

And they come in a statistical joint last place with the British on whether their country has handled the pandemic well, the poll finds.

民调还发现，在关于本国应对疫情是否有力的问题上，美国人和英国人在统计上并列最后一位。

In the US, fewer than two in 10 people (18%) said the country is more united now.

在美国，只有不到两成的受访者（18%）认为国家现在更加团结了。



That's a full 21 percentage points below the next lowest-ranking countries, Germany and France, where just under four in 10 (39%) respondents expressed that opinion.

这比排名倒数第二的德国和法国整整低了21个百分点。在德法两国，只有不到四成（39%）的受访者表达了这种观点。

Denmark had the highest percentage saying their country was more united now, with more than seven in 10 (72%) giving that answer.

丹麦人认为自己的国家现在更加团结的比例最高，超过70%的人（72%）给出了这个答案。

The findings come from a Pew Research Center survey of 14 advanced economies in North America, Europe and Asia. The Washington, DC-based think tank interviewed 14,276 adults by telephone from June 10 to August 3.

这项调查由总部位于华盛顿特区的智库皮尤研究中心实施，6月10日至8月3日，该机构以电话形式采访了14276名成年人，他们均来自北美、欧洲和亚洲的14个发达经济体。
