A donation of 1,000 ventilators for pneumonia from China to New York arrived at the city’s JFK Airport on Saturday.

China donates 1,000 ventilators to New York

A donation of 1,000 ventilators will arrive in New York City on Saturday from China, said New York Governor Andrew Cuomo on Twitter.

“This is a big deal and it’s going to make a significant difference for us,” Cuomo said at his daily press conference on Saturday.

Cuomo said at a briefing on March 27 he was seeking to obtain 30,000 ventilators for when the disease hits its apex in mid-April in the state as health experts have predicted.

He reiterated the importance of a ventilator so a seriously ill person can breathe and stay alive. “If the person comes in and needs a ventilator and you don’t have a ventilator, the person dies,” Cuomo had said earlier.

As of Saturday, New York has 113,704 confirmed COVID-19 cases, including 63,306 in New York City. The state has the largest number — around 39 percent — of confirmed cases in the US. As of today, 3,565 people have died due to COVID-19 in the state. There are 15,905 people in the hospital and 4,126 in ICU (intensive care units).

周六，从中国向纽约捐赠的1000台呼吸机抵达纽约市肯尼迪机场。

纽约州州长安德鲁·科莫(Andrew Cuomo)今天早些时候在推特上写道：“我们今天终于得到了一些好消息。中国政府帮助促成了1000台呼吸机的捐赠。我感谢中国政府、马云、蔡崇信、马云基金会、蔡崇信基金会和黄总领事。”

库默在周六的每日记者会上表示，“这是一件大事，它将对我们有重要意义.”

库默在3月27日的一次吹风会上表示，他正在寻求获得3万台呼吸机，以便像卫生专家预测的那样，该州的疫情将于4月中旬达到顶峰。

他重申呼吸机的重要性，这样重病患者才能能够呼吸并存活下来。“如果这个人进来需要呼吸机，而你没有呼吸机，这个人就会死，”科莫早些时候说。

截至周六，纽约有113，704例确诊的COVID-19例，其中包括纽约市的63，306例。该州是美国确诊病例最多的州-约占美国全部的39%。截至今天，该州已有3565人死于COVID-19。医院有15905病例，ICU(重症监护病房)有4126病例。
