3月4日(路透社)——南卡罗来纳州一名官员在周三的简报会上表示,美国疾病控制与预防中心(CDC)工作人员将抵达该州,协助应对美国30多年来最严重的麻疹疫情。

南卡罗来纳州流行病学家Linda Bell博士称,美国疾控中心流行病学情报处的三名官员(也被称为疾病侦探)预计将于下周抵达该州,协助分析疫情期间收集的数据。

上周,路透社曾报道称,来自非营利性质的CDC基金会(由国会创立以支持CDC的独立机构)的12名公共卫生专家正前往南卡罗来纳州,协助该州控制疫情。

美国疾控中心通常会派遣科学家和医疗官员进行为期数周的短期部署,但该州卫生部门上周表示,这种部署无法满足日常工作职能的需求。

Bell博士表示,CDC基金会的工作人员协助开展了”支持疾病控制工作的日常事务”,而CDC官员则将帮助分析疫情爆发近22周以来产生的海量数据。

March 4 (Reuters) – U.S. Centers for ​Disease Control and Prevention staff will arrive in ‌South Carolina to help the state contain the largest measles outbreak in the country in more than 30 ​years, a state official said in a ​briefing on Wednesday.

Three officers, also called disease ⁠detectives, from the CDC’s Epidemic Intelligence Service ​are expected to arrive in the state next week ​to help analyze data collected during the outbreak, said Dr. Linda Bell, South Carolina’s epidemiologist.

Last week, Reuters reported a dozen ​public health experts — from the nonprofit CDC ​Foundation, an independent entity created by Congress to support the ‌CDC — ⁠were arriving in South Carolina to help the state contain the outbreak.

The CDC generally provides scientists and medical officers for brief deployments of a ​few weeks, which ​the state’s ⁠health department said last week do not fulfill needs to support daily ​job functions.

The staff from the CDC ​Foundation ⁠helped with the “day to day work that supports those disease containment efforts,” while CDC officers would help ⁠analyze ​the massive data generated nearly ​22 weeks into the outbreak, Bell said.
