Nearly 3-and-a-half million Australians could lose their jobs due to the coronavirus pandemic. The Grattan Institute says between 14 and 26 percent of the entire workforce may lose work — if they haven't already — and the crisis will have an enduring impact on the Australian economy for years to come. Treasury has forecast unemployment will rise to ten percent in the June quarter. But the Grattan Institute says the figures are higher if you analyse just how many jobs in Australia rely on working in close physical proximity to others.

近350万澳大利亚人因冠状病毒疫情而失业。格拉坦研究所表示,14%到26%的劳动力可能会失业——如果他们还未失业的话——这场危机将在未来数年对澳大利亚经济产生持久的影响。财政部预测,第二季度的失业率将上升到10%。但格拉坦研究所表示,如果分析澳大利亚有多少工作岗位依赖与他人的近距离身体接触,那失业率可能会更高。

Overseas, COVID-19 has now claimed more than 40-thousand lives in the US, and more than 100-thousand in Europe. There's also increasing pressure on governments to lift restrictions, with protestors taking to the streets in a number of US states over the weekend. Spain has announced that it will begin to ease lockdown measures from next Monday — with children allowed out of their homes to play in parks for the first time in almost 6 weeks.

来看海外的情况,目前新冠肺炎已在美国夺走了4万余人的生命,在欧洲夺走了10万余人的生命。各国政府面临的解除限制的压力越来越大,上周末,美国多州爆发抗议。西班牙宣布将从下周一开始放宽封锁措施,儿童将在近6周以来首次获准走出家门,前往公园玩耍。

Malcolm Turnbull's book publisher has confirmed it will refer the distribution of pirated copies of his memoir to the Australian federal police. It comes after one of Scott Morrison's closest advisors apologised for distributing unauthorised copies of the former PM's memoir. The book's publisher also sent the staff member a "cease and desist" order for what it described as a "massive breach of intellectual property".

马尔科姆·特恩布尔的图书出版商证实,他们将向澳大利亚联邦警察举报分发特恩布尔盗版回忆录的事件。此前,斯科特·莫里森最亲密的一位顾问就分发前总理回忆录的未经授权版本道歉。该回忆录出版商还向这名工作人员发出终止令,要求其停止这种“大规模侵犯知识产权”的行为。
