Access is very, very difficult there. There were immense problems of having organized aid effort to so many people. You know, remember we are talking tens of thousands of people have been up there. The people who fled Sinjar are arriving in worsening conditions by the day. They've been exposed to this environment, lack of water, immense difficulties simply existing up there for some time now. And their needs are very great indeed.
很難進(jìn)入那里，很難組織援助活動(dòng)來(lái)幫助這么多人。要知道，我們說(shuō)的是這里的成千上萬(wàn)人。這些人從辛賈爾逃來(lái)，自那時(shí)起處境就每況愈下。他們處在這樣的環(huán)境下，沒(méi)有水，現(xiàn)在只是活下來(lái)就很難了，他們非常需要援助。

世衛(wèi)組織稱到目前為止有1000多人喪生，而提供未在人身上試驗(yàn)的藥物是個(gè)倫理問(wèn)題。世衛(wèi)組織的基尼博士告訴BBC，要解決該國(guó)的危機(jī)，需要就藥物使用得到制藥公司的同意。利比里亞衛(wèi)生部長(zhǎng)關(guān)尼蓋爾說(shuō)，在決定把藥物給哪位患者時(shí)，應(yīng)該考慮其患病的程度。

Let me say how many doses of the drug I will give. This is an ethical issue. So if someone asks that they want me to try on them, I will have to see the chances of adequacy of giving. It depends on the stage of the disease. If it rose that they will not live whatever we do, we will be wasting the drug that we have given to them.
讓我來(lái)說(shuō)提供多少劑量的藥物給病人，這是個(gè)倫理問(wèn)題。因此如果有人要我在他身上做實(shí)驗(yàn)，我就必須研究下其可行性，這要取決于患病程度。如果不管給多少藥物病人都無(wú)法存活，那我們就浪費(fèi)了這些藥物。
