Measles Outbreak: Protect Your Child with MMR Vaccine

麻疹暴發(fā)：用麻腮風(fēng)疫苗來保護(hù)你的孩子

    In the United States, we are currently experiencing a large, multi-state outbreak of measles linked to an amusement park in California. Measles is a highly contagious disease. It can be serious for your young children. Protect your children by making sure they get MMR vaccine according to CDC's recommended schedule. 

    在美國(guó),正在經(jīng)歷著大規(guī)模的多洲爆發(fā)的麻疹疫情,，該起疫情與加利福尼亞的游樂園有關(guān)。麻疹是一種傳染性極高的疾病,，它可以嚴(yán)重地危害孩子的身體健康,。為了你孩子的健康，請(qǐng)根據(jù)疾病預(yù)防控制中心的建議,確保已接種使用MMR疫苗,。

    The large, ongoing measles outbreak in the United States likely started with a traveler who got measles overseas and then visited the amusement park while he or she was contagious, spreading the disease to others. Measles is highly contagious and spreads through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes. In fact, if one person has it, 9 out of 10 of the people around him or her will also become infected if they are not immune (through measles vaccination or having had measles before).

    這起大規(guī)模的正在進(jìn)行的麻疹爆發(fā)疫情可能與一名旅行者有關(guān),，他（她）得了麻疹,然后參觀了游樂園,正是由于高度傳染性,將麻疹傳播給了其他人。麻疹是高度傳染性疾病,，通過病人咳嗽或打噴嚏進(jìn)行傳播,。事實(shí)上,如果一個(gè)人得了麻疹，那么他（她）周圍90%的人會(huì)被感染,，如果沒有免疫抗體的話(通過麻疹疫苗接種或以前患過麻疹),。

Measles Can be Serious

    Measles starts with a fever. Soon after, it causes a cough, runny nose, and red eyes. Then a rash of tiny, red spots breaks out. It starts at the head and spreads to the rest of the body. Measles can be serious for young children.

    麻疹以發(fā)燒為首要癥狀，隨后,它會(huì)導(dǎo)致咳嗽,流鼻涕,和結(jié)膜炎,，紅色斑丘疹,，皮疹期初發(fā)現(xiàn)在頭部，然后擴(kuò)散到身體的其他部位,。麻疹對(duì)年幼的孩子來說,，是非常嚴(yán)重的。

?  About 1 out of 4 people who get measles will be hospitalized.

?  1 out of every 1,000 people with measles will develop brain swelling (encephalitis), which may lead to brain damage.

?  1 or 2 out of 1,000 people with measles will die, even with the best care.

. 約1/4的麻疹病人將住院,；

. 1/1000的麻疹病人將并發(fā)腦腫脹(腦炎),這可能會(huì)導(dǎo)致腦損傷,；

. 1/1000人~2/1000的麻疹病人會(huì)死亡，,即使得到了最好的照顧,。
