　　I am Norbert Sporns. My life in Haikou since the coronavirus outbreak has been affected like everyone else. My approach has been to follow on my experience during the SARS epidemic in 2003, keeping hands clean, using alcohol gel disinfectant and limiting mixing in large groups of people.

　　我是生活在海南的加拿大人诺伯特·斯普林斯。我在海口的生活自从新型冠状病毒感染肺炎疫情毒疫情爆发以来的确受到了一些影响，但我从经历过的“非典”中得到了很多经验，诸如勤洗手和不去人多的地方凑热闹。

　　Social contacts now for me are limited to grocery store outings and my daily two-hour walk. Measured on my telephone pedometer, I try and maintain 10,000 steps per day, about 2 hours of walking. Being on Haidian Island allows us the benefit of many well laid out walking paths through linear parks. Going on a long walk keeps me healthy. My strong immune system is my first line of defense in staying healthy.

　　我现在的社交活动主要是去采购以及每天两小时的行走。用计步器算着，我争取每天都要走一万步。生活在海甸岛的特别好的一点就是，我们可以享受到许多规划良好的步行道，以及很多带状公园供人们锻炼。在防控疫情期间，我一直坚持锻炼，这让我一直保持强大的免疫力，保持健康。

　　I admire the dedication of grocery store and produce market employees in providing us essential access to safe healthy food. In addition, I must say that the distribution of well-maintained public toilets is a great addition to life here.

　　我很佩服杂货店和农产品市场员工为我们提供安全健康食品的这种奉献精神。另外，疫情防控期间，维护好干净卫生的公共厕所也为日常外出提供了安全保障。

　　If I have one hope from this virus outbreak for the future, it is that we learn to be more careful in maintaining our health and respectful of the healthy needs of others. As a foreigner in Haikou, I applaud the great efforts made to provide sanitary walking facilities.

　　对于我来说，这次疫情的爆发让我们学会更加地注重自身健康和尊重他人的健康需求。作为在海口生活的外国人，我称赞海口在提供干净的卫生设施方面所做的巨大努力。
