"Patient zero" nghĩa là gì?


"Patient zero" -> nghĩa là bệnh nhân đầu tiên nhiễm bệnh, virus; bệnh nhân F0. 

Ví dụ
Monica Lewinsky knows a little something about public shame. “I was patient zero of having a reputation (danh tiếng) completely destroyed worldwide because of the internet,” she says in the introduction to her new documentary, “15 Minutes of Shame.”

In a way, while Lewinsky’s own story is largely absent (thiếu vắng) from the documentary, her presence muddies its waters. It’s not clear that Lewinsky really was “patient zero” for internet shaming; the examples of her scandal’s virality are largely culled from late-night talk shows and print newspaper headlines; the internet was a very different place in 1998, still relying on slow dial-up connections and blessedly devoid (trống rỗng) of social media.

Why? Did the virus jump from an animal to its first human host, its patient zero? Or, as some suspect, was the catastrophe (thảm họa) the result of a laboratory accident in Wuhan, a city of eleven million people in central China?

Those companies are patient zero for climate denial (từ chối), having spent decades confusing the public (in addition to worsening the climate crisis). Demonetizing deniers’ videos on YouTube is one step, but there’s still more to go.
