During the COVID-19 pandemic, these connections – with loved ones, with schools and colleges, with workplaces, with healthcare professionals and essential supplies – are more important than ever.
在冠状病毒病大流行期间,这种与亲人、学校、工作场所、专业医护人员和基本用品的联系,比以往任何时候都更加重要。
The International Telecommunication Union continues to work with the information and communication technology community and UN agencies to help manage and end this crisis, and recover better.
国际电信联盟继续与信息和通信技术界及联合国机构合作,为管理和结束这场危机并更好地恢复作出贡献。

新技术——从5G和大数据到云计算和人工智能,是应对世界上最紧迫挑战,包括疫情大流行的强大工具。
Leaving no one behind means leaving no one offline.
不让一个人掉队,就是要做到不让一个人下线。
