华盛顿6月24日路透电 — 据特朗普政府一名官员透露，白宫计划最早于本周三向国会申请超过14亿美元新增资金，以应对不断扩散的埃博拉疫情。
这笔将被纳入更大规模补充拨款申请的资金，其中包含8亿美元用于人道主义危机应对。

这8亿美元将用于在肯尼亚设立针对接触过病毒的美国人的隔离中心，同时采购物资、提供治疗、开展接触者追踪、搭建区域物流网络以及落实感染防控措施。
这名官员表示，美国官员还将申请5亿美元全球卫生安全资金，称这笔资金是防止病毒传入美国所必需的。这笔资金将用于疾病监测、实验室能力建设、跨境协调，以及与多边组织和私营部门的潜在合作。
另有9000万美元将用于外交工作，包括撤离以及将感染病毒的美国公民转运至治疗机构。此前并未有关于这项拨款申请的报道。
世界卫生组织本周表示，刚果（金）的埃博拉疫情由罕见的本迪布焦毒株引发，目前已造成超过1000人感染、267人死亡——成为该疾病暴发首月确诊病例数最多的一次疫情。
就在政府提出拨款申请之际，一名近期从刚果（金）人道主义任务返回法国的医生埃博拉病毒检测呈阳性，这标志着法国出现了与本次疫情相关的首例确诊病例。
据另一名官员透露，美国官员已要求欧洲各国政府实施更严格的旅行限制，并为埃博拉防控提供更多支持。该官员还表示，近期美方对欧洲伙伴国应对不力感到不满。
在此次疫情暴发前，美国就因削减美国国际开发署项目和非洲公共卫生事业而遭到批评。
截至目前，美国已承诺向埃博拉防控工作提供数亿美元资金，并计划在肯尼亚设立备受争议的美国公民隔离中心，称其优先目标是阻止埃博拉传入美国。
今年5月，美国禁止近几周前往刚果（金）、乌干达或南苏丹的非公民入境美国。随后美国疾病控制与预防中心将禁令范围扩大到近21天内去过上述国家的绿卡持有者。
Trump to seek more than $1.4 billion in Ebola funding from Congress

WASHINGTON, June 24 (Reuters) – The White House is planning to seek more than $1.4 billion in new funds from Congress to address the widening Ebola virus outbreak as soon as Wednesday, according to a Trump administration official.
The request, which is set to be included in a larger supplemental funding request, would include $800 million for humanitarian crisis responses.

That $800 million will fund a quarantine center in Kenya for Americans exposed to the virus as well as supplies, treatment, contact tracing, a regional logistics network and infection control practices.
U.S. officials are also seeking $500 million in global health security funds they say are needed to prevent the virus from spreading to the United States. That funding would include disease surveillance, laboratory capacity, and cross-border coordination, and potential partnerships with multilateral organizations and the private sector, the official said.
Another $90 million would go to diplomatic efforts, including evacuations and transportation of U.S. citizens with the virus to treatment facilities, according to the official. The funding request was not previously reported.
Congo’s Ebola outbreak is linked to the rare Bundibugyo strain of the virus. It has infected more than 1,000 people and killed 267 – generating the largest number of confirmed cases within the first month of any episode of the disease, the World Health Organization said this week.
The request for funding comes as a doctor who recently returned to France from a humanitarian mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo tested positive for Ebola, marking the country’s first confirmed case linked to the current outbreak.
U.S. officials have asked European officials to implement tougher travel measures and contribute more to the Ebola response, according to one such official. In recent days, they have also expressed frustration with the lack of response from their European counterparts, the person said.
Washington has also come under criticism for its own cuts to the U.S. Agency for International Development and African public health efforts, prior to the outbreak.
The U.S. has pledged hundreds of millions of dollars to the Ebola response so far, and is building a controversial quarantine center in Kenya for American citizens, saying the priority is keeping Ebola from reaching the U.S.
In May, the U.S. banned non-citizens who had traveled to the Democratic Republic of Congo, Uganda or South Sudan in recent weeks from entering the United States. The ban was later extended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to green card holders who have been in those countries in the previous 21 days.
