zh-cn	法国巴黎地区的一名重症监护主任伊夫·科恩在周日受邀参加法国BFM电视台的一档访谈节目时表示，新冠病毒或于去年12月27日就已经在法国出现了。 
en-us	The novel coronavirus first appeared in France on December 27, 2019, said Yves Cohen, an intensive care chief from Avicenne Hospital in Paris, in an interview with local media BFMTV on Sunday. 

zh-cn	科恩医生表示，由于12月至1月的核酸试剂并非用于检测新冠病毒，而是检测流感以及其他冠状病毒的，他和他的团队重新对24名患者的样本进行了新冠的检测。 
en-us	He said his medical team revisited test results of 24 patients with respiratory infections and tested negative for flu and other kinds of coronavirus in December and January, among them a male patient showed positive for COVID-19. 

zh-cn	在检测中医生们发现，其中有一例患者样本新冠检测呈阳性，而该患者的感染时间要追溯到去年12月27日，比法国原本最早宣布的首例新冠感染病例的感染时间要早了一个月。 
en-us	The patient was tested in hospital on December 27, a month before the first French cases were confirmed, Cohen said, adding that the test had been repeated several times to confirm the result. 

zh-cn	这名患者感染了他的两个孩子，但他在超市海鲜柜台工作的妻子并没有出现症状。 
en-us	The patient was sick for 15 days and infected his two children but not his wife who works in a fish stall of a supermarket. 

zh-cn	这位患者并没有中国的旅行史，科恩曾怀疑患者的妻子接触过来自中国的鱼类产品，
en-us	Cohen initially questioned whether the wife had been exposed to fish products from China, 

zh-cn	但通过调查后发现该柜台的产品都来自法国本地。 
en-us	but later confirmed that she had only been exposed to fish produced in France. 

zh-cn	“这位患者可能是‘零号病人’”，科恩医生说，
en-us	The expert said the man might be "patient zero". 

zh-cn	“但也许还有出现在其他地区的病人有待核查统计。” 
en-us	But perhaps there are other patients in other regions." he said. 

zh-cn	目前这名患者和他的家人都已经康复。
en-us	Both the man and the children have recovered and are in good health now. 

zh-cn	截至5月4日，新冠病毒已经造成法国近2.5万人死亡，确诊病例数超过16.8万。
en-us	As of Monday, France has reported more than 168,000 COVID-19 cases and 24,898 deaths.
