Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV)

新型冠状病毒

In December 2019, there was a cluster of pneumonia cases in China.Investigations found that it was caused by a previously unknown virus – nownamed the 2019 Novel Coronavirus. In this video, we’ll take a quick look atwhat’s currently known about the virus. Keep in mind that this is a new virusand what’s known about the virus now might change in the future.

2019年12月，中国出现了一组肺炎病例。调查发现，它是由一种之前未知的病毒引起的——现在被命名为2019新型冠状病毒。在这个视频中，我们将快速了解目前已知的病毒。请记住，这是一种新的病毒，现在对这种病毒的了解可能在未来改变。

Coronaviruses are a large group of viruses. They consist of a core ofgenetic material surrounded by an envelope with protein spikes. This gives itthe appearance of a crown. Crown in Latin is called “corona” and that’s howthese viruses get their name.

冠状病毒是病毒的一大类。它们由一个核心的遗传物质组成，周围环绕着一个由蛋白质尖峰组成的包膜。这使得它看起来像一个皇冠。拉丁语中的皇冠被称为“corona”，这就是这些病毒得名的原因。

There are different types of coronaviruses that cause respiratory andsometimes gastrointestinal symptoms. Respiratory disease can range from thecommon cold to pneumonia. And in most people, the symptoms tend to be mild.However, there are some types of coronaviruses that can cause severe disease.These include the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus firstidentified in China in 2003 and the Middle East Respiratory Syndromecoronavirus that was first identified in Saudi Arabia in 2012.

有不同类型的冠状病毒，可引起呼吸道疾病，有时还会引起胃肠道症状。呼吸系统疾病可从普通感冒到肺炎不等。大多数人的症状都很轻微。然而，有一些类型的冠状病毒可以导致严重的疾病。其中包括2003年在中国首次发现的严重急性呼吸系统综合征冠状病毒，以及2012年在沙特阿拉伯首次发现的中东呼吸综合征冠状病毒。

The 2019 Novel Coronavirus was first identified in China. It initiallyoccurred in a group of people with pneumonia who’d been associated with aseafood and live animal market in the city of Wuhan. The disease has sincespread from those who were sick to others, including family members and healthcare staff. There are many cases at present and the disease has spread withinChina and also to a number of other countries.

新型冠状病毒首先出现在中国。最初在一群肺炎患者身上发现了这种病毒，而这些患者与武汉市的一个海鲜和活物市场有关。自那时以来，这种疾病已从患病者蔓延到其他人，包括患者的家庭成员和卫生保健人员。

So, where did thevirus come from?

那么，病毒是从哪里来的?

It’s known that coronaviruses circulate in a range of animals. Sometimesthese viruses can make the jump from animals to humans. This is called aspillover and could be due to a range of factors such as mutations in the virusor increased contact between humans and animals. For example, MERS-CoV is knownto be transmitted from camels and SARS-CoV, from civet cats. The animalreservoir of the 2019 Novel Coronavirus is not known yet.

众所周知，冠状病毒在一系列动物中传播。有时这些病毒可以由动物传染给人。这被称为“溢出效应”，可能是由一系列因素造成的，如病毒突变或人与动物之间接触增加。例如，人们认为，中东呼吸综合征是通过骆驼传播的，而非典，是从果子狸传播的。2019年新型冠状病毒的动物库尚不清楚。

How is it transmitted?

它是如何传播的?

The exact dynamics of how the virus is transmitted is yet to bedetermined. In general, respiratory viruses are usually transmitted throughdroplets created when an infected person coughs or sneezes, or throughsomething that has been contaminated with the virus.

病毒传播的确切动态仍有待确定。一般来说，呼吸道病毒通常通过感染者咳嗽或打喷嚏时产生的飞沫传播，或通过受病毒感染的东西传播。

People most at risk of infection from the Novel Coronavirus are those inclose contact with animals, such as live animal market workers, and those whoare caring for people infected with the virus, such as family members orhealthcare workers.

新型冠状病毒感染风险最高的人群是那些与动物密切接触的人，如动物市场的工作人员，以及那些照顾感染该病毒的人的人，如家庭成员或医护人员。

So, how does the disease present?

那么，疾病是如何呈现的呢?

Well, from what is known so far, there can be a number of symptoms rangingfrom mild to severe. There can be fever and respiratory symptoms such as coughand shortness of breath. In more severe cases, there’s been pneumonia, kidneyfailure, and death. The mortality rate is not known yet.

从目前已知的情况来看，可能会有从轻微到严重的一系列症状。可能会有发烧和呼吸道症状，如咳嗽和呼吸急促。在更严重的情况下，有肺炎，肾衰竭和死亡。目前还不知道死亡率。

How can we tell whether someone is infected?

我们如何判断一个人是否被感染?

The infection can be diagnosed by a test called PCR or Polymerase ChainReaction. This test identifies the virus based on its genetic fingerprint.There is currently no specific medication for the virus and treatment issupportive care. There’s currently no vaccine to protect against the virus.Treatment and vaccines are in development.

这种感染可以通过聚合酶链反应(PCR)来诊断。该测试根据病毒的遗传指纹来识别病毒。目前还没有针对该病毒的特定药物，治疗是支持性治疗。目前还没有预防病毒的疫苗。正在研制治疗和疫苗。

How do we preventtransmission of the virus?

我们如何防止病毒的传播?

This new virus currently has a limited geographic spread. However, thereare a number of standard hygiene practices that have been recommended toprotect against infection and further spread. These include covering your mouthand nose when coughing or sneezing with a medical mask, tissue or flexed elbow;avoiding close contact with those who are unwell; the appropriate use of masksand personal protective equipment, especially in a healthcare setting; washinghands regularly with soap and water, or alcohol-based hand rub. Actions thatcan be taken to prevent infection from an animal source include: avoidingunnecessary unprotected contact with animals; washing hands after contact withanimals or animal products; and ensuring that animal products are cooked thoroughlybefore they’re consumed.

这种新病毒目前在地理上的传播有限。然而，为了防止感染和进一步传播，建议采用一些标准的卫生做法。这包括咳嗽或打喷嚏时用医用口罩、纸巾或弯曲的胳膊肘捂住口鼻;避免与不适者密切接触;适当使用口罩和个人防护设备，特别是在医疗环境中;使用香皂和清水或含酒精的洗手液清洗双手。可采取的防止动物源性感染的措施包括：避免与动物不必要的无保护接触;接触动物或动物产品后洗手;确保动物产品在食用前彻底煮熟。

It’s important to stay home if you’re feeling unwell. But if you have afever, cough, and difficulty breathing, seek medical care early and share yourprevious travel history with your healthcare provider.

如果你感觉不舒服，呆在家里是很重要的。但如果你发烧、咳嗽、呼吸困难，尽早就医，并告知医生之前的旅行史。
