zh-cn	项目将帮助预防、发现和应对新冠肺炎构成的公共卫生威胁，加强国家公共卫生防范体系，这对于防范下一波疫情尤为重要。

zh-cn	每个国家层面的项目都是根据该国家的具体情况和疫情度身打造的。

en-us	The new framework will enable projects to be repeated across countries and over time in the same country; for example if other multilateral development banks (MDBs) wish to co-finance a follow-up tranche. 
zh-cn	新框架将使项目能够在不同国家以及在同一个国家不同时间复制，比如在其他多边开发银行希望提供后续联合融资的情况下。 

en-us	In addition to those 60 new operations, we are working with countries to redirect existing projects to fight COVID-19, through restructuring, reallocation, triggering emergency components of existing projects (CERCs), and activation of Catastrophe Deferred Drawdown Options (CAT DDOs). 
zh-cn	除了这60个新项目外，世界银行团队也在与各国合作对现有项目的资金进行调整用于防控新冠肺炎，主要通过项目重组、重新配置资金、触发现有项目的应急子项目以及启动巨灾延迟提款选择机制等方式。
