Ví dụ
First pollution (ô nhiễm), now coronavirus: Black parish in Louisiana deals with 'a double whammy' of death. “Air pollution and pollution in general is segregated, and so is America,” one expert said.
“It is a double-whammy, combined with the lockdown (phong tỏa). We normally sell at local markets immediately after harvest and before Bohag Bihu (the mid-April Assamese new year),” research consultant and farmer Bonojit Hussain said.
"We got hit with a double whammy ... between the Saudi and Russia price war that started right about the same time the coronavirus hit," he told CBS News correspondent Janet Shamlian. "Kind of unprecedented (chưa từng thấy, chưa từng có, vô tiền khoáng hậu) times for us out here."
