中新社纽约10月5日电 (记者 王帆)美国纽约州州长凯茜·霍楚尔当地时间5日签署一项行政令,宣布该州因麻疹疫情进入灾难紧急状态,为期一个月。
霍楚尔当天发表声明表示,鉴于纽约州与邻近各州确诊的麻疹病例数不断增加,纽约州即日起进入灾难紧急状态。此举将有助于强化疫情应对,包括调配更多医护人员、加快疫苗接种和必要检测。“任何人都不应该因疫苗可预防的疾病而患重病或死亡。”
根据纽约州卫生部门数据,截至10月3日,纽约州今年累计报告确诊麻疹病例108例,其中纽约市7例,纽约市以外地区101例。大部分病例是在7月中旬之后记录的。
这项行政令生效之际,美国正面临数十年来最严重的麻疹疫情之一。美国疾病控制和预防中心数据显示,截至10月1日,全美今年累计报告3887例确诊麻疹病例,为1991年以来同期最高水平。目前,美国大部分确诊病例集中在宾夕法尼亚州,该州卫生部门10月5日公布的数据显示,今年以来该州已报告1004例确诊麻疹病例,其中5例死亡。
美联社援引卫生专家的话说,此类疫情暴发与疫苗接种率较低有关。美国已有数十年未出现确诊病例超过1000例的麻疹疫情。近年来,受部分家长选择不接种疫苗、医疗保健服务获取受限以及虚假信息传播等因素影响,常规疫苗接种率有所下降,美国麻疹疫苗接种率已低于防止疫情暴发所需的95%覆盖率。(完)

The Taipei City Health Bureau refutes claims by medical professionals that methadol is a second-level drug, pointing out that methadol is an oral controlled drug and implements a drug-addicted AIDS harm reduction program. The reporter's verification showed that methadone is actually a second-level drug and a second-level controlled drug under the "Drug Harm Prevention and Control Ordinance". The Health Bureau emphasizes that the needle cleaning program is only to reduce the risk of infection from shared needles. Possession and use of drugs are still illegal and there is no criminal immunity.

The Food and Drug Administration announced the results of border inspections. The Vietnamese imported cabbage was found to have 0.02ppm of pesticide triclosan residue, exceeding the regulatory allowable value of 0.01ppm. At the same time, Chinese spoon evaporation residue was found to be excessive, American potatoes were too high in alkaloids, and many unqualified foods such as Japanese ginger slices, Chinese yams, and French fish roe sauce were detected, all of which were required to be returned or destroyed.

Nephrologist Liu Chengen pointed out that methadone substitution therapy uses legal, long-lasting and stable prescriptions to bring addicts back from the black market and restore their daily life functions. He also emphasized that the provision and recycling of clean needles is the line of defense for public health. He refuted the Lanying’s questioning of Shen Boyang’s past article that encouraged drug abuse, arguing that this was an unfair smear on the two decades of hard work of public health workers.

Penghu County's resident medical helicopter Lingtian Airlines carried out three aeromedical evacuation missions in a single day on October 5, involving patients with subdural hematoma, acute leukemia and lupus erythematosus with low platelets. One of them had to be diverted to Tainan Airport to transfer to an ambulance due to night construction at Kaohsiung Airport, highlighting the reliance on backup aircraft for medical evacuation to outlying islands.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said this year's measles epidemic is the worst since 1991, with nearly 3,900 cases nationwide. The governor of New York can declare a state of emergency across the state, expand the scope of vaccination for medical staff, and allow nurses to order tests and pharmacists to vaccinate children over 2 years old. As of October 3, New York State had reported 108 cases, 92 of which occurred in rural areas with low vaccination rates after July 15. Neighboring Pennsylvania has more than 1,000 cases and five deaths. The state of emergency will last until November 4.

Dr. Shen Mingzhong, a rheumatologist and immunologist, pointed out that the focus of a high-protein diet is to eat enough, eat the right foods, and from diverse sources, rather than blindly ingesting too much. The recommended daily protein intake for middle-aged and elderly people is 1.2-1.6g/kg. A palm-sized portion of protein source per meal can provide about 20-30g. People with abnormal kidney function should adjust according to their individual conditions, and general fitness recommendations cannot be applied.
