其他合作者也纷纷通过启迪英国,向中国人民发来慰问:
 
“The world is anxious about coronavirus, and the city of Cambridge, with its excellent links to China feels this particularly. This is a new disease and I commend the speed with which Chinese officials identified the virus, sequenced its genome and shared those findings. We need to beat the virus and that will happen through looking at the evidence and taking decisive action. We stand in solidarity. 

——Daniel Zeichner, Member of Parliament for Cambridge”

启迪控股联合剑桥大学三一学院参与剑桥科技园建设,共建了剑桥启迪科技园。代表剑桥郡的英国国会议员Daniel Zeichner发来慰问,翻译如下:

“全世界都对冠状病毒感到焦虑,而剑桥市与中国有着密切的联系,尤其感受到了这一点。这是一种新型疾病,我对中国官员们快速地识别病毒、测序其基因组并分享这些发现的行为表示称赞。我们必须要战胜病毒,只有通过查看各种证据、采取果断行动才能实现。让我们团结起来。”
 
“The Coronavirus is a matter of concern for all of us, but particularly those who have friends and family in China or one of the other affected areas. My heart goes out to all those affected by the virus, and particularly the brave medical staff fighting on the frontline, and the ordinary people isolating themselves in order to prevent the virus spreading. An outbreak of this magnitude requires a global response, international collaboration and solidarity. Here in Newcastle we have one of the country’s leading medical research and isolation centres as well as a thriving Chinese community. I am doing all I can to support both.”

——Chi Onwurah, Member of Parliament for Newcastle”

纽卡斯尔启迪科技园位于英国纽卡斯尔。代表纽卡斯尔的英国国会议员Chi Onwurh发来慰问,翻译如下:

“我们所有人都关注着新型冠状病毒,而那些有朋友和家人在中国或者其他受到影响的地区的人们则更加关注。我向所有受病毒影响的人,特别是奋战在前线的勇敢的医务人员,以及为防止病毒传播而隔离的普通人,表示衷心的支持。如此大规模的爆发需要全球性的反应、国际合作和团结。在纽卡斯尔,我们拥有全国领先的医学研究和隔离中心之一,以及一个繁荣的华人社区。我正在尽我所能来支持这些。”
 
“The outbreak of the Covid-2019 virus in China this year has had a huge impact on the health and well-being of people in China and around the world.  The British government acted quickly in support of China by donating materials and equipment to Wuhan, China at the outset, and also allocated 20 million pounds of special funds to support Chinese and British scientists to quickly carry out cooperative research on virus vaccines and prevention. The UK Department for International Trade is also organizing relevant British companies to provide China with ongoing materials and technical assistance. We sincerely hope that China can quickly control the epidemic and normal life resumes as soon as possible. China is the engine of the world economy, and there has already been a worldwide economic impact due to the coronavirus. The United Kingdom supports and hopes for China to overcome this epidemic as quickly as possible, and return to health and prosperity. Go China! Wuhan Jia You!

——Dr. Jiansheng Du, Specialist of Life Sciences Organisation of Department for International Trade, UK”

——英国国际贸易部医药行业专家杜建盛博士发来慰问,翻译如下:

“新型冠状病毒在中国的爆发已经对中国和全世界人民的生命健康产生了巨大的影响。英国政府快速反应,从一开始便向中国武汉捐赠了物资和装备,也拨出2000万英镑专项经费用来支持中国和英国的科学家尽快在冠状病毒疫苗和防治工作上进行合作性研究。英国国际贸易部也在组织相关的英国企业,为中国提供急需的物资和技术上的援助。我们真诚地希望中国能尽快地控制疫情,回复到正常的生活。中国是世界经济的引擎,新型冠状病毒的经济影响也已经是全球性的。英国政府支持和希望中国能尽可能快地战胜疫情,继续健康和繁荣发展。中国加油!武汉加油!”
 
“On behalf of the people of Newcastle upon Tyne, I would like to offer our support and concern for anyone in China and beyond affected by the recent Coronavirus outbreak. Viruses like this do not discriminate; they tear families and communities apart. I offer sincere condolences to anyone who has lost a family member or a friend in recent weeks, and extend our hand in friendship to you at such a difficult time. I would also like to pay tribute to the health service workers, carers and others who risk their own health to protect us all. Fortunately global outbreaks like this are rare, but we have shown that we can work together across national boundaries to contain its spread.

——Councillor Nick Forbes, Leader, Newcastle City Council”

纽卡斯尔市议会议员Nick Forbes发来慰问,翻译如下:

“我谨代表泰恩河畔纽卡斯尔的人民,向中国和其他地区受最近冠状病毒疫情影响的人表达支持和关心。这样的病毒的伤害是无差别性的;他们撕裂着家庭和社区。我向最近几周失去亲人或朋友的人表示诚挚的慰问,并在如此困难的时刻向你们伸出友谊之手。我还要向那些冒着自身健康危险保护我们所有人的卫生服务工作者、护理人员和其他人员表示敬意。所幸这样的全球疫情不会常见,但我们已经表明,我们可以跨越国界共同努力,来遏制其蔓延。”
 
“On behalf of the members of the Cambridge Science Park, we extend our deepest sympathy to all those families affected by the coronavirus particularly those who have lost loved ones. We remember you all daily in our thoughts and prayers. It is hard for us to imagine how difficult it must be for you simply coping with every day life especially in Wuhan. 

As part of a wider global endeavour, British scientists are working hard to find a vaccine. We sincerely hope they will quickly succeed in their endeavours and that life will get back to normal for you as soon as possible.

另外据悉,英国政府目前为止总共资助4000万英镑,支持新冠疫苗研发。2月3日,英国政府承诺向在伦敦设有研究所的CEPI(全球流行病防疫创新联盟)提供2000万英镑资金,以支持其进行新型冠状病毒疫苗的研究。2月5日,英国卫生大臣马特·汉考克(Matt Hancock)宣布再拨款2000万英镑,总共资助4000万英镑(约3.6亿人民币)支持新型肺炎的疫苗研发。第二批拨款的2000万英镑资金主要被用于资助CEPI成员——英国女科学家凯特·布罗德里克(Kate Broderick)的研究项目。

而《剑桥独立报》2020年2月7日发表了题为“剑桥实验室正在研制的冠状病毒疫苗可能是对付这种流行病的最好希望”的文章。据该报透露,剑桥大学病毒人畜共患实验室的负责人乔纳森·希尼教授 (Prof. Jonathan Heeney) 和他的同事正在利用独特的技术研发一种疫苗。

希尼教授的实验室在湖北武汉病毒爆发后的几天内就开始对病毒的基因序列进行分子模拟。该小组已与英国公共卫生部和国际卫生当局取得联系,要求从受感染者身上采集血液样本。利用他们在麦丁利路外兽医部内的最先进的生物接触实验室,这些样本可用于监测候选疫苗引起的免疫反应。

希尼教授认为,在适当的支持下,实验室可以迅速行动,并在四个月内研制出一种可供测试的疫苗。“正是因为我们针对流感研发的技术和针对冠状病毒的技术非常相似,所以我们能够迅速行动起来。”与流感一样,冠状病毒的基因编码是由RNA而不是DNA构成的。这意味着它更容易变异,也更难开发出相应的疫苗。
