  美国总统奥巴马21日发表演讲时,一名在场孕妇险些晕倒,幸被奥巴马及时扶住。事后奥巴马开玩笑称自己演讲时间太长。

  The moment Obama catches pregnant woman as she faints behind him during healthcare speech and jokes, 'that's what happens when I talk too long'

  Prospective Affordable Care Act beneficiary Karmel Allison became wobbly towards the end of Mr Obama's 25 minute speech at the White House today

  Just in time, the President turned around and caught her before she fainted

  'I got you. You're OK,' Mr Obama told her and made a joke that he had been speaking too long

  Allison was invited to the event because she is a long-time diabetes sufferer who has struggled to find affordable healthcare until the ACA

  She later tweeted: 'I'm ok world- just got a little lightheaded.Thanks, @BarackObama for catching me'

  She told CNN dehydration may have caused the turn because she had tried not to drink before the speech so she wouldn't need to bathroom

  President Barack Obama caught a pregnant woman who began to faint during his speech about healthcare reforms today and then joked: 'That's what happens when I talk too long.'

  Mr Obama reached out to help prospective Affordable Care Act beneficiary Karmel Allison who was standing directly behind him as he discussed the glitches of the new healthcare website in the Rose Garden of the White House.

  Around 25 minutes into the speech, Ms Allison became unsteady and started to lose consciousness but the President, and other attendees, turned around and grabbed her before she fainted.

  'I got you. You're OK,' Mr Obama told her. The woman was escorted away for medical assistance as the crowd applauded Mr Obama's quick reaction.

  Ms Allison later tweeted: 'I'm ok world- just got a little lightheaded.Thanks, @BarackObama for catching me! And good thing this pregnant diabetic is pregnant :)'

  相关介绍:

  奥巴马21日在白宫玫瑰园发表关于《平价医疗法案》(即通称的《奥巴马医疗法案》)的演讲,讲到第25分钟左右时,站在他身后的一名孕妇开始摇晃不定,奥巴马立即转身扶住了她,孕妇随后被送医。

  事后孕妇卡梅尔•艾莉森向外界解释说自己可能是因为脱水,加上太阳照耀导致头晕,并在推特上感谢了奥巴马及时出手相救。

  当时在场的人都鼓掌赞扬奥巴马反应迅速,但之后有美国网民质疑艾莉森是假装的,是由奥巴马政府故意安排的。

  据悉艾莉森自九岁起就患上了I型糖尿病,一直苦于寻找自己能负担的医疗保障,而新的奥巴马医疗法案使她花费很少就能参保,因此她受邀来参加这次演讲。
