An E. coli outbreak linked to contaminated cucumbers that has killed 14 people and made more than 300 seriously ill
in Germany has spread to other north European countries and is expected to worsen in the coming week.
The E. coli pathogen has been identified on cucumbers imported from Spain but it is unclear if they were contaminated there, during transport or in Germany.
受大腸桿菌污染的毒黃瓜已經(jīng)導(dǎo)致德國14人死亡,300多人病情嚴(yán)重,并且疫情已經(jīng)蔓延到其他一些北歐國家,在過來一周預(yù)計(jì)將會更加嚴(yán)重。
在從西班牙進(jìn)口的黃瓜中發(fā)現(xiàn)了大腸桿菌病原體,但是尚不清楚污染究竟是發(fā)生在西班牙源產(chǎn)地,還是在運(yùn)輸過程中,或是在德國被污染的。
【講解】文中的contaminated cucumbers即指“毒黃瓜”,是指遭到一種出血性大腸桿菌 Enterohaemorrhagic E. coli(EHEC)污染的黃瓜,這種病菌會引發(fā)溶血性尿毒綜合征 hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS)。與 Cucumber相關(guān)的一個(gè)短語是as cool as a cucumber, 意為“鎮(zhèn)定自若”。
