问题: 大修后审稿人迟迟不回复

问题描述
6月末投稿,9月17日收到修稿意见,两位审稿人一位建议小修后接收,另一位建议大修,10月16日上传了修稿和回复信,两个月过去了,昨天写了封催稿信,今天编辑回复说We have sent your manuscript to be re-assessed by the original reviewer(s). Unfortunately, they have not been able to return a re-review report. We have approached the handling editor to suggest an alternative course of action to provide a decision. Our sincerest apologies for this delay, please be assured that we will do everything we can to ensure a decision can be reached as soon as possible.简而言之就是之前的审稿人都没回应,想问下如果审稿人迟迟不回复,难不成就一直拖着?或者再找新的审稿人?

编辑的这个回复并不消极,也明确说明了会尽快给稿件做决定,她有可能“再找新的审稿人”,不会“一直拖着”。
