【medical-news】西尼罗河病毒之灾

The latest tests of mosquitoes by the Ohio Department of Health turned up 11 Summit County samples with West Nile virus.

The samples came from Cuyahoga Falls, Bath Township, Barberton, Norton, New Franklin, Reminderville, Macedonia (two positives), Boston Township, Peninsula and Northfield Center Township.

Earlier testing had confirmed the potentially life-threatening virus in three samples from Norton.

The virus is transmitted from infected birds to mosquitoes and potentially to people.



The Barberton-Norton Mosquito Abatement District will spray near the Johnson Road Baptist Church in Norton and at Barberton's Anna Dean Park for the next five to seven nights, Director Joseph Harrison said Friday.

The district will also increase applying a pesticide to kill mosquito larvae and boost trapping efforts in both areas, he said.

The Summit County Health Department will check its records to determine whether additional spraying is needed in the affected areas, said Bob Hasenyager, director of environmental health.

The mosquitoes that tested positive for the virus were trapped three weeks ago, and officials must determine how much spraying and killing of mosquito larvae have been done in those areas since the mosquitoes were collected, he said.

Summit County has sent117,000 mosquitoes to Columbus this year for testing, more than the 65,000 that were tested in 2007, Hasenyager said.

There have been no human cases of West Nile virus in Summit County this year, said Dr. Marguerite Erme of the Akron Health Department.

To date, there have been two human cases in Ohio in 2008: one in Lorain County and one in Ottawa County.

Twelve Ohio counties have reported the West Nile virus. In Northeast Ohio, that includes Summit, Stark, Cuyahoga, Lake and Lorain counties. It has been found in one bird and one mosquito sample in Stark County.

在11次政府峰会上,由俄亥俄健康部进行的最新试验发现了携带西尼罗河病毒的蚊子样本。

The samples came from Cuyahoga Falls, Bath Township, Barberton, Norton, New Franklin, Reminderville, Macedonia (two positives), Boston Township, Peninsula and Northfield Center Township.
这些样本来自霍加河瀑布,巴斯镇,巴伯顿,诺顿,新富兰克林,Reminderville,马其顿地区(两例阳性样本),波士顿镇、半岛及北部中心镇区。

Earlier testing had confirmed the potentially life-threatening virus in three samples from Norton.
前期试验已经证实来自诺顿的3 个样本具有潜在的威胁生命的病毒。

The virus is transmitted from infected birds to mosquitoes and potentially to people.
这种病毒通过被感染的鸟类传染给蚊子以及潜伏于人体中。

The Barberton-Norton Mosquito Abatement District will spray near the Johnson Road Baptist Church in Norton and at Barberton's Anna Dean Park for the next five to seven nights, Director Joseph Harrison said Friday.
周五约瑟夫-哈里森主任表示,将于接下来的五至七个晚上在诺顿的Johnson Road 礼拜教堂和巴伯顿的Anna Dean公园喷洒巴伯顿-诺顿灭蚊剂。

The district will also increase applying a pesticide to kill mosquito larvae and boost trapping efforts in both areas, he said.
他说,在这个地区同时将增加喷洒杀灭蚊子幼体的试剂以及加强预防蚊子措施这两方面的工作。

The Summit County Health Department will check its records to determine whether additional spraying is needed in the affected areas, said Bob Hasenyaer, director of environmental health.
环境健康部主任Bob Hasenyaer说,政府健康部门峰会将根据查看那些地区的灭蚊情况的记录来决定是否需要在受感染区域再喷洒试剂。

The mosquitoes that tested positive for the virus were trapped three weeks ago, and officials must determine how much spraying and killing of mosquito larvae have been done in those areas since the mosquitoes were collected, he said.
他说,三周之前捕集到这种对西尼罗河病毒有传染作用的蚊子,此后官方必须决定在这些发现这种蚊子的地区喷洒多少灭蚊剂的量。

Summit County has sent117,000 mosquitoes to Columbus this year for testing, more than the 65,000 that were tested in 2007, Hasenyager said.
