中國62人染新布尼亞病毒7死 陸網瘋傳台灣疾管署影片

武漢肺炎(COVID-19,新冠肺炎)疫情還沒趨緩,但現在中國又傳出「新布尼亞病毒」(new bunyavirus),在今年至少62人感染,甚至已經出現7人死亡的案例。

根據中國媒體《健康時報》報導,南京一名婦人出現40度高燒、咳嗽、血小板減少的情形,緊急就醫後,這才發現感染了新布尼亞病毒。報導中指出,感染後,患者體內的血小板、白血球會迅速減少,最後甚至會導致腦出血、多器官衰竭,死亡率相當高。

但南京這名婦人其實不是中國今年以來的第一位感染者,她是江蘇人民醫院接診的第37位感染者;此外,安徽省今年4月以來,也已經有23人感染,其中有5人死亡,而浙江省也有2人死亡的情形。

Tick-borne diseases are replete the southern hemisphere too.

But that being said, it bears repeating that China has been the primary exporter of diseases to the rest of the world since 1950
