近日,法国发现第二例新型冠状病毒感染者后,世界卫生组织表示,该病毒或可能在密切接触的人与人之间传播,因法国第二例患者曾与首位患者在同一间医院病房住过。感染该病毒后会引发急性肺炎,有时会导致肾衰竭。据世卫组织最新更新数据显示,自2017年以来,欧洲和中东共确认33名新型冠状病毒感染者,其中已有18人死亡。沙特阿拉伯和约旦均发现感染病例,并已传播至德国、英国和法国。新型冠状病毒与2003年肆虐亚洲的SARS病毒同属一个病毒群,不过二者有不同之处,新型冠状病毒既能在人类中间传播,也能在动物中间传播,均能引起呼吸系统感染。不过,目前尚不清楚该病毒是某种已知病毒的变异体还是动物体中的病毒传播至人类的。
The World Health Organization says it appears likely that the novel coronavirus (NCoV) can be passed between people in close contact.
This comes after the French health ministry confirmed a second man had contracted the virus in a possible case of human-to-human transmission.
Two more people in Saudi Arabia are also reported to have died from the virus, according to health officials.
NCoV is known to cause pneumonia and sometimes kidney failure.
World Health Organization (WHO) officials have expressed concern over the clusters of cases of the new coronavirus strain and the potential for it to spread.
