当前的COVID-19大流行使人们关注人类面对传染病的脆弱性。但是，这一流行病也唤醒了人们，如果再次使用核武器，世界将遭受灾难性的影响。对医疗服务的巨大压力，对正常生活的严重破坏，对暂停公民自由的艰难选择，如何保护关键工作人员并确保社会继续运作-这些都将在核爆炸事件中放大许多倍。因此，除了将注意力重新集中在预防和缓解全球流行病上之外，当前危机的教训更加广泛，应该导致重新开展减少核危险的公共教育、兴趣和行动。
The current COVID-19 pandemic has focused attention on the vulnerability of the human race in the face of communicable disease. But the pandemic also serves as a wake-up call to the cataclysmic impact that would befall the world if nuclear weapons were ever to be used again. Overwhelming pressure on health-services, considerable disruption to normal life, difficult choices regarding suspension of civil liberties, how to protect key workers and ensure society continues to function – these would all be magnified many times over in the event of a nuclear explosion. Thus, in addition to refocusing attention on the prevention and mitigation of global pandemics, the lessons of the current crisis are much more wide-ranging, and should lead to a renewal of public education, interest, and activism in reducing nuclear dangers.
