Hi, everyone, and Happy Lunar New Year.
大家好！祝大家新春快樂。
I know this is an important time in China. Most of years, it’s a time to travel home and reunite with family. Obviously, things will be different this year for many people.
我知道春節是中國最重要的節日，通常人們都會回到家鄉，闔家團聚。但對很多人來說，今年的情況顯然與以往不同。
My hope is that by next year, life will be much closer to normal than it is today. I think that holidays in 2022 would look a lot like holidays did in 2019 and before.
希望明年的這個時候，生活將回歸正常。希望2022年的假期會像2019年以及更早的時候那樣。
But in order for that to happen, we need to eliminate this disease. COVID-19 needs to be brought under control everywhere.
為了實現這一目標，我們需要消滅這種疾病，讓新冠疫情在每一個地方都能得到控制。
And that would take a global response. I’m very pleased that China made a strong commitment to the ACT-Accelerator, an effort to ensure equitable access to COVID diagnostics, therapeutics and vaccines to everybody around the world – no matter where they live.
這需要全球合作應對。我非常高興地看到，中國對「全球合作加速開發、生產、公平獲取新冠肺炎防控新工具」倡議所作出的堅定承諾。這一倡議將確保世界上每一個人，無論他們生活在哪裡，都能公平獲得新冠肺炎的診斷、治療和疫苗。
Though the pandemic is far from over, it’s also a time to start thinking about what we want the future to look like. Melinda and I have been spending a lot of time on that. This year, in our Annual Letter, we write about the actions the world needs to take to bring this pandemic to an end and to make sure we’re better prepared for the next one.
儘管疫情遠未結束，但我們應該開始思考未來。梅琳達和我在這個問題上花了很多時間。在今年的年信中，我們討論了世界需要採取怎樣的行動，才能終結這場疫情，並為下一次大流行病做好充分準備。
The last year has been hard, but I’m still optimistic. I’m confident we』ll beat this virus and build a stronger, healthier, more equal world than we had before.
過去的一年非常艱難，但我仍然保持樂觀。我相信，我們終將戰勝這個病毒，並且建設一個比以前更強大、更健康、更平等的世界。
Thanks so much, everyone. Have a happy and healthy Year of the Ox.
感謝大家。祝你們牛年快樂，身體健康。
