6月16日(路透社)——据《华尔街日报》16日报道,美国卫生与公众服务部部长小罗伯特·F·肯尼迪下令一名在邮轮上接触过汉坦病毒的美国乘客强制留观隔离,尽管有医疗建议且违背其本人意愿。

这名乘客是47岁的安吉拉·佩里曼,今年早些时候某邮轮上发现安第斯汉坦病毒病例后,她是被隔离在美国境内的18名美国人之一。该团体最初被安置在内布拉斯加州的隔离点。

美国卫生与公众服务部一名官员告诉路透社,6月21日午夜将结束42天的监测期。

路透社未能通过电话联系到在隔离点的佩里曼。

据该官员透露,隔离点内剩余的乘客将于6月22日离开内布拉斯加州。该官员补充说,42天的监测期始于他们5月10日返回美国之后。

内布拉斯加大学医学中心本月早些时候表示,8名在遭遇汉坦病毒疫情的“洪迪乌斯号”邮轮上的美国居民在内布拉斯加大学医学中心国家检疫单元接受三周监测后已返回各自家乡。另有10人仍在接受观察。

美国疾病控制与预防中心(CDC)曾要求该邮轮乘客在5月31日前留在隔离点。

争议中的隔离条款

《纽约时报》近期报道称,部分乘客可在家中完成隔离,直至6月22日——即抵达内布拉斯加隔离点后的42天,前提是当地卫生部门承诺安排执法人员或社区卫生工作者对其进行监测。

世界卫生组织建议对高风险接触者在暴露后进行42天的监测和隔离。

据《华尔街日报》和《纽约时报》报道,佩里曼希望返回位于佛罗里达州的家中,但该州拒绝提供监测服务。

《纽约时报》补充称,美国疾控中心在一次隔离听证会上表示,她可以在隔离剩余时间回家。《华尔街日报》报道称,美国疾控中心的一份医疗审查报告显示,她出现症状的几率随时间推移而降低。

佩里曼告诉《华尔街日报》和《纽约时报》,肯尼迪签署的一份隔离命令被从她的房门底下塞了进来,通知她不得回家。

据《华尔街日报》报道,肯尼迪的命令中称,尽管有医生的报告,但有合理理由认为佩里曼已感染或接触过该疾病。

June 16 (Reuters) – U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has ordered an American passenger exposed to hantavirus on a cruise ship to remain in quarantine despite medical advice and against her will, ​the Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday.

The passenger, Angela Perryman, 47, was one of 18 Americans quarantined in the U.S. after Andes hantavirus cases were found aboard a cruise ship earlier this year. The group had initially been placed at a Nebraska quarantine unit.

A Department of Health and Human Services official ​told Reuters that midnight June 21 would mark the completion of the 42-day monitoring ​period.

Reuters was unable to reach Perryman at the facility by phone.

According to the ⁠official, the remaining passengers at the quarantine unit will leave Nebraska on June 22. The 42-day ​period began following their return to the United States on May 10, the official added.

Eight U.S. ​residents who were on the hantavirus-hit MV Hondius returned to their home states following three weeks of monitoring at the National Quarantine Unit, the University of Nebraska Medical Center said earlier this month. Ten others remained under ​observation.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) had requested that the individuals from the cruise ship ​remain at the quarantine unit through May 31.

QUARANTINE TERMS AT ISSUE

The New York Times recently reported that some ‌passengers ⁠were allowed to quarantine at home until June 22 — 42 days after arriving at the Nebraska facility — provided local health officials committed to having a law enforcement or community health worker monitor them.

The WHO recommends monitoring and quarantining high-risk contacts for 42 days after exposure.

Perryman wished to go to ​her home in Florida, ​but the state refused ⁠to provide the monitoring, the Wall Street Journal and the Times reported.

The Times added that the CDC, in a quarantine hearing, said she should ​be able to return home for the remainder of the quarantine. The ​Journal reported ⁠that a CDC medical review said the chances of her developing symptoms were decreasing with time.

Perryman told the Journal and the Times that a copy of an order from Kennedy was slipped under the ⁠door to ​her room informing her that she could not return ​home.

Kennedy’s order said despite the doctor’s report, Perryman was reasonably believed to be infected with or exposed to the disease, ​according to the Journal.
