Cleveland, Ohio - Oogqirha kunye nabongikazi bathi kwingxelo kaRhuluneli uMike DeWine ngoLwesibini ukuba oogqirha kulo lonke ilizwe badiniwe ngenxa yokunqongophala kwabasebenzi kunye nokungabikho kwezixhobo ngexesha lotyando lwe-COVID-19 Yenza kube nzima ngakumbi ukukhathalela isigulana.
UDkt. Suzanne Bennett weZiko lezeMpilo leYunivesithi yaseCincinnati uthe ngenxa yokunqongophala kwabahlengikazi kulo lonke ilizwe, amaziko onyango amakhulu ezemfundo azama ukunyamekela izigulane.
UBennett uthe: “Kudala imeko ekungekho mntu ufuna ukucinga ngayo. Asinandawo yokuhlalisa abaguli ebebenokuxhamla kunyango kula maziko makhulu emfundo enomsila.”
U-Terri Alexander, umongikazi obhalisiweyo kwi-Summa Health e-Akron, uthe izigulane ezincinci azibonileyo zazingenayo impendulo yangaphambili kunyango.
“Ndicinga ukuba wonke umntu olapha udiniwe,” utshilo uAlexander. "Kunzima ukufikelela kwinqanaba lethu langoku labasebenzi, sinqongophele izixhobo, kwaye sidlala ibhedi kunye nomdlalo wokulinganisa izixhobo esiwudlala yonke imihla."
UAlexander uthe abantu baseMelika abaqhelanga ukujikiswa ezibhedlele okanye ukugcwala kwaye bangakwazi ukubeka izalamane ezigulayo kwigumbi labagula kakhulu.
Isicwangciso sokuquleka saphuhliswa kunyaka ophelileyo ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuba kukho iibhedi ezaneleyo ngexesha lo bhubhani, njengokuguqulwa kwamaziko enkomfa kunye nezinye iindawo ezinkulu zibe ziindawo zesibhedlele. UDkt Alan Rivera, umhlali kwiZiko lezeMpilo leFulton County kufuphi neToledo, uthe i-Ohio inokubeka inxalenye yenyama yesicwangciso esiphuthumayo, kodwa ingxaki kukuba kukho ukungabikho kwabasebenzi ukuba banakekele izigulane kwezi ndawo.
URivera uthe inani labasebenzi abahlengikazi kwiZiko lezeMpilo laseFulton County lancitshiswa ngama-50% ngenxa yokuba abahlengikazi bashiye, bathatha umhlala-phantsi, okanye bafuna eminye imisebenzi ngenxa yoxinzelelo lweemvakalelo.
URivera uthe: "Ngoku sinamanani amaninzi kulo nyaka, hayi ngenxa yokuba sinezigulana ezininzi ze-COVID, kodwa ngenxa yokuba sinabantu abambalwa abakhathalela inani elifanayo lezigulana ze-COVID."
UDeWine uthe liyanda inani labantu abalaliswa esibhedlele abangaphantsi kweminyaka engama-50 kurhulumente. Uthe malunga ne-97% yabaguli be-COVID-19 bayo yonke iminyaka kwizibhedlele zaseOhio abagonywanga.
UAlexander uthe uyayamkela imimiselo yogonyo eza kuqala ukusebenza eSuma kwinyanga ezayo. U-Bennett uthe uyaluxhasa ugunyaziso lwesitofu sokugonya ukunceda i-Ohio yonyuse amazinga okugonya.
“Ngokucacileyo, ngumba otshisa ibunzi lo, kwaye yimeko elusizi...kuba ifikelele kwinqanaba lokuba sicele urhulumente ukuba athathe inxaxheba ekunyanzelisweni kokunyanzeliswa kwezinto esizaziyo ukuba zisekelwe kwisayensi kunye nobungqina, ukunqanda ukufa,” utshilo uBennett.
UBennett uthe kusaza kubonakala ukuba umhla obekiweyo wokunyanzeliswa kogonyo kwiSibhedlele iGreater Cincinnati uza kubangela ukuphuma ngexesha lokunqongophala kwabasebenzi.
UDeWine uthe ujonga inkuthazo entsha yokukhuthaza abantu baseOhio ukuba bagonywe. I-Ohio ibambe imbalelwano yesigidi seeveki ngeeveki kubantu baseOhio ababefumene inaliti enye ye-COVID-19 ekuqaleni kwalo nyaka. Ilotho inika i-1 yezigidi zeedola ngamabhaso kubantu abadala veki nganye kunye nokufundiswa kweekholeji kubafundi abaneminyaka eyi-12-17.
“Sixelele onke amasebe ezempilo kurhulumente ukuba ufuna ukubonelela ngembuyekezo yemali, ungayenza loo nto, kwaye siza kuyihlawula,” utshilo uDevin.
UDeWine uthe khange athathe nxaxheba kwingxoxo malunga noMthetho osaYilwayo wama-248 obizwa ngokuba “nguMthetho wokuKhetha uGonyo kunye noCalucalulo”, oya kuthi uthintele abaqeshi, kubandakanywa namaziko ezonyango, kwaye ude ufune ukuba abasebenzi bachaze isimo sabo sogonyo.
Abasebenzi bakhe bafuna iindlela zokunceda izithili zezikolo ezijongene nokunqongophala kwabaqhubi beebhasi ngenxa yobhubhane. “Andazi ukuba singenza ntoni, kodwa ndicele iqela lethu ukuba lijonge ukuba singenza njani na ukuze sincede,” utshilo.
