Dear colleagues,

I hope you're all safe and sound.

This week, our esteemed colleague Igor Vesler and I have collaborated to
produce a glossary of coronavirus-related terms in English and Russian.
Members who would like to download it can find the PDF file here:
<http://www.pbg-translations.com/COVID%20Glossary.pdf>

This is version 1.0; given the urgency of the matter we thought it
better to get it out the door and add entries later as needed. The
current version has 235 entries. Some are general epidemiological or
disaster-response terms, but terms like "lockdown" have seen an upsurge
in usage this year, while things like "nonessential activities" have
been repurposed/adapted to the new conditions. We have not included
general terms from government, politics, or journalism, although they
are in heavy use these days.

Contributions are welcome for the next version, which we hope to release
next week about this time.
