世卫组织:简单措施在预防猪流感上非常重要

来源:标准英语 时间:2018-05-10 点击:

24EN编者按:4月30日,世界卫生组织中国区新闻发言人Vivian  Tan通过凤凰网介绍猪流感最新进展及应对措施,她和大家分享了世界卫生组织工作人员自己防控猪流感的方法,她提醒大家,一些看似简单的措施在防护猪流感方面非常有效,她还建议,那些身体感觉不适的人应该推迟旅行计划。

 

1.世界卫生组织的工作人员自己怎样预防猪流感?

 

在世卫组织的中国办公室,我们组织内部的会议随时通知大家猪流感最新的发展请款,我们认为保证生物钟,规律的生活方式是抗击猪流感的有效方式,我们也储存了一些抗病毒药物,如果发现我们的同事有流感症状时使用。

 

世界卫生组织主要是在技术指导领域支援成员国,但我们在媒体访问和其他公共信息传递过程中,会强调简单措施在预防流感方面的重要性。比如勤洗手、在喷嚏或咳嗽时掩住口鼻,身体不适时在家休息,这些方式简单但非常有效。

 

 

Within the WHO China office, we have held internal meetings to brief staff about the current swine flu situation. We have discussed preventative measures such as maintaining good personal hygiene. We have also stockpiled some antiviral drugs in case staff develop flu-like symptoms.

 

WHO is a technical agency that supports member countries like China. We don"t work directly with the public. However, in all our media interviews and public messages, we stress the importance of the simple measures that people can take to protect themselves against flu infection. This includes washing your hands often and thoroughly, covering your mouth when you cough or sneeze, and staying home if you are not feeling well.

 

 

2. 5级预警的严重性有多高?

当流感在人际间迅速传播,而且是短时间内持续在多个国家爆发时我们会发出5级警告,它意味着我们面临流感全球性爆发的威胁。为了让你更好地了解5级的严重性,我可以给出一个对比,我们对禽流感的评级是3级,因为它是有限的人际传播。

 

Phase 5 in the flu pandemic alert system means that we are in a situation with human-to-human transmissions causing sustained community-level outbreaks in a number of countries. The threat of an influenza pandemic is imminent.

 

I am not aware of how many times we have seen level 5 alertness in the last 50 years. But to give you a sense of how serious we are taking swine flu – avian influenza is currently on level 3 due to limited human-to-human transmissions.

 

3.猪流感似乎在墨西哥和西班牙两个国家更为活跃,气候对于猪流感的传播有什么影响?具体到中国,哪些地区更易感染猪流感?

 

这种名为猪流感的新型流感是一种很新的病毒,我们对它知之甚少。我们与感染地区的专家及学术权威们并肩合作,寻找它的传染规律。总而言之,我们不知道什么情况会加速感染速度。中国现在尚无确诊病例,但如果流感警告持续升级,如果我们对它的评级达到6级,那么就没有任何一个国家,一个城市是绝对安全的。

 

The current strain of A/H1N1 swine flu is a new virus that we don"t have much information on. We are working with the experts and authorities in affected countries to find out more about how it spreads, its transmission pattern, who it affects most. In short, we don"t yet know what conditions encourage the spread of swine flu.

 

There are currently no confirmed cases in China. But if this develops into a full-blown flu pandemic (ie. level 6), no country and no city will be completely safe from it.

 

4.中国民众将迎来劳动节,对于计划旅游的人们和需要国际雏形的商务人士,你有什么好的建议?他们是否应该取消旅游计划?

 

 

世界卫生组织没有提出限制旅游的建议,但是那些感觉身体状况不太好的人们,我们还是建议他们推迟旅游计划。对那些旅游归来感到不适的人们,我认为他们应该寻求医疗支持。

 

WHO is not recommending travel restrictions. However, people who feel ill should delay their travel and people returning from travelling who feel sick should seek medical attention.

 

5.您认为中国应对SARS的哪些经验也值得在这次防控猪流感中应用?

 

在过去的几年中,经历过SARS和禽流感的中国已经建立了突发卫生事件应急系统。中国也拥有整体应对全球性流行疾病的计划,也加强了实验室的能力。中国还 加强了对卫生系统官员的培训,并建立了危机申报制度。这一切都让中国在应对猪流感时更强有力。我认为当前最重要的政府中枢机构要加强对于疑似患者的发现和排查。因为猪流感患者 越早发现,我们就越可以从容应对并控制局面

 

Because of SARS and avian flu, China has strengthened its emergency response system in the last few years. It has a national pandemic plan in place, and has strengthened its laboratory capacity. It has also invested in training health officials in health promotion and risk communications. All this has contributed to the country"s strong response to swine flu so far.

 

The most important thing now is for the government to monitor closely and increase surveillance of any suspicious flu-like cases around the country. The earlier a case can be detected, the sooner we can take action to mitigate and control the situation.
