throw the baby out with the bath water 因噎废食

“因噎废食”，汉语成语，字面意思是因为吃东西噎住，索性就什么也不吃了（give up eating for fear of choking）。比喻由于出了点小毛病或怕出问题就把应该做的事情停下来不干了。可以翻译为“refrain from doing something for fear of a possible risk”。与英文俚语“throw the baby out with the bath water”意思相近，表示“to discard something valuable along with something not desired, usually unintentionally”。

例句：

不能因为一个航空公司出问题就关闭机场，这样做就是因噎废食。

You can’t close the airport because one airline has problems--that’s just throwing out the baby with the bath water.
