汉他病毒:染疫邮轮部分乘客已返回各国,我们应该担心这一病毒吗? - BBC News 中文
这起发生在搭载来自世界各地乘客的邮轮上的汉他病毒疫情引发恐慌,相关单位表示正极其严肃地处理。 目前已知有三名游客在船上或下船后死亡,这艘邮轮一个月前从阿根廷出发。 另有四人已从船上紧急医疗撤离接受治疗。 目前正展开大规模行动,追踪可能已暴露于病毒、并已搭机返回多个国家(包括英国、南非、荷兰、美国和瑞士)的乘客。 卫生专家强调,对一般大众的风险很低。那么,我们到底该多担心呢? 世界卫生组织(WHO)的玛丽亚·范科霍夫博士(Dr Maria Van Kerkhove)在周四(5月7日)的最新说明中强调,这并非新一轮大流行的开始,她说:"这不是新冠,这不是流感,它的传播方式非常、非常不同。" 与麻疹等具有高传染性且容易扩散的疾病不同,导致这次疫情的汉他病毒安第斯株(Andes strain)传染力并没有那么强。 世界卫生组织指出,人传人的情况虽然可能发生,但全球性感染风险仍低。 根据最新更新,目前已确认船上有八例病例(三例确诊、五例疑似)。 目前仍不清楚疫情是如何开始的。 汉他病毒通常通过囓齿类动物传播,人类会因吸入被带有病毒颗粒的空气而感染,这些颗粒来自囓齿动物的尿液、粪便或唾液。 这艘邮轮曾前往偏远野生动物区域,因此可能有乘客在那里或登船前接触到病毒。 专家曾在先前疫情中观察到安第斯株在人类患者之间透过密切接触传播,卫生专家认为洪迪斯号 (MV Hondius)邮轮上的一些感染可能发生人传人感染。 因为,即使是豪华邮轮,生活空间也相对狭窄且受限,乘客共用舱房和餐厅 -- -- 这些地方都可能传播病毒。人们可能会从长时间近距离相处的人身上感染病毒。 人们可能会因为与某人长时间近距离相处而感染病毒。 三起死亡病例中包括一名荷兰女性,她在4月24日邮轮停靠圣赫勒拿岛(St Helena)时下船。她一直与丈夫共用一间舱房,而她的丈夫已于4月11日在船上死亡。目前尚不清楚他是否为确认的汉他病毒病例。 英国卫生安全局(UKHSA)表示,汉他病毒不会透过日常社交接触在外界传播,例如在公共空间、商店、工作场所或学校走动。 症状通常在接触病毒后二至四周出现,但也可能一个多月后才发生。 可能曾暴露于感染风险的人或"接触者" -- -- 包括在船上、医院,或乘客搭乘的任何航班上 -- -- 将接受监测。 正在进行的接触者追踪工作是一项"相当巨大的努力",英国卫生安全局首席科学官罗宾·梅教授(Robin May)告诉BBC,而且是"我们将持续进行一段时间"的工作。 英国卫生安全局表示,任何从这艘邮轮返英的乘客,将被要求在英国自我隔离45天作为预防措施。 对于未直接接触这艘邮轮的一般大众来说,"这里的风险其实微乎其微",梅教授补充道。 感染安第斯株的患者可能出现类似流感的症状,包括发烧、疲劳、肌肉痠痛。他们也可能出现呼吸急促、胃痛、恶心、呕吐或腹泻。 目前已有检测方法可以诊断感染,但没有特定治疗药物,不过及早在医院接受医疗支援可以提高存活率。治疗方式主要是针对出现的症状进行处置。 英国卫生安全局表示,官员们正努力协调从洪迪斯号邮轮返回英国的英国公民的抵达事宜。 英国卫生安全局流行病与新兴感染部门副主任米拉·钱德博士(Dr Meera Chand)表示:"重要的是要让民众安心,一般大众的风险仍然非常低。我们正在对任何可能与邮轮或汉他病毒病例有接触的人进行接触者追踪,以降低进一步传播的风险。" 该邮轮在靠近西非海岸的佛得角群岛附近停泊三天后,目前正航向西班牙的加那利群岛。 计划是让剩余的乘客和船员搭机返回各自的国家。 当地卫生当局已登船视察并评估情况。 乘客已在船上进行隔离,船只由专业人员进行深度清洁后,准备进行预计的撤离行动。负责的泛海探险邮轮公司(Oceanwide Expeditions)在周四表示,船上剩余人员目前都没有出现症状。 该公司指出,4月24日邮轮停靠圣赫勒拿岛时,有30名乘客下船,其中包括7名英国人,之后所有人都已取得联系。 对此,英国卫生安全局表示,其中两名在圣赫勒拿岛下船的英国人,在从约翰尼斯堡返英后听闻病例消息,已主动联系卫生官员,目前正在英国自愿进行自我隔离。他们目前没有症状。不过另外五名在圣赫勒拿岛下船的英国人尚未返回英国。 在美国,乔治亚州和亚利桑那州的卫生官员向BBC证实,他们正在监测三名从邮轮下船后返回美国的乘客。目前这三人都没有出现症状。.
