國內部分地區肺炎支原體感染率上升,這種病原體會讓低齡兒童患上呼吸道疾病。請看本報昨日的報道: Hospitals in parts of China are seeing a surge in infections of Mycoplasma pneumoniae — a pathogen that commonly causes respiratory illnesses among young children. Experts have said that the outbreak will likely remain at a peak for another month and suggested families not panic but take necessary precautions such as wearing masks and seeking treatment promptly. 報道中的Mycoplasma pneumoniae是個拉丁語詞,即“肺炎支原體”,是一種非典型細菌,會引起支原體肺炎。拉丁語詞表示生物名稱時第一個字母通常大寫。 |
