There's a big rise in flu cases right now.

The CDC is saying that doctors' visits for flu illnesses are at their highest levels in 15 years.

美國疾病預防控制中心（CDC）稱，因流感就診的人數達到了 15 年來的最高水準。

Joining us with how to protect ourselves is emergency medicine physician, Dr. Stephanie Widmer.

急診科醫生斯蒂芬妮-維德默博士將為我們介紹如何保護自己。

We've got this map here, and it's really showing that respiratory illness activity levels, much of it is the flu is listed as very high in 12 states, high in 19 states.

我們這裡有一張地圖，它真實地顯示了呼吸道疾病的活動水準，其中大部分是流感，在 12 個州被列為非常高，在 19 個州被列為高。

So lots of different reasons why we could be seeing these very high levels of the flu, just to name a few.

是以，有很多不同的原因導致流感發病率居高不下，僅舉幾例。

Vaccination rates are still incredibly low right now.

疫苗接種率現在仍然低得令人難以置信。

Less than 45% of adults have received their flu vaccine.

只有不到 45% 的成年人接種了流感疫苗。

The strains that are going around happen to be very, very contagious and can cause severe illness, so lots of people seeking medical care.

目前流行的菌株具有很強的傳染性，可導致嚴重的疾病，是以很多人都在尋求醫療護理。

Believe it or not, the COVID-19 precautions that were in place in prior seasons, people were masking, people were practicing social distancing, and now that those precautions have been lifted, more people are being exposed to the flu.

信不信由你，在之前的季節裡，人們採取了 COVID-19 預防措施，人們戴上口罩，實行社會隔離，而現在這些預防措施取消了，更多的人接觸到了流感。

And we've just had a rough start to the season.

而我們本賽季的開局並不順利。

The flu season started early, and it spread very quickly, so it's been quite a winter.

流感季節開始得很早，而且傳播得很快，所以這個冬天過得相當糟糕。

Yeah, it feels like everyone I know had the flu.

是啊，感覺我認識的每個人都得了流感。

Okay, so we've heard the symptoms, right?

好了，我們已經聽說過這些症狀了，對嗎？

Fever, chills, body aches, abdominal pain.

發燒、發冷、全身疼痛、腹痛。

So good reasons to seek medical care, if you are too weak to walk, if you can't eat, if you can't drink water, if you can't hold anything down, if you feel short of breath, any difficulty breathing, dizziness, confusion, those are all really good reasons to seek medical attention.

是以，如果你虛弱得無法行走，如果你無法進食，如果你無法喝水，如果你無法按住任何東西，如果你感到氣短、呼吸困難、頭暈、神志不清，這些都是就醫的好理由。

We have about 30 seconds, but let's talk about prevention, because that's always the best medicine.

我們大約有 30 秒鐘的時間，但我們還是談談預防吧，因為預防永遠是最好的良藥。

Getting vaccinated, washing your hands, hand hygiene is key, avoiding crowded places, and if you can't avoid crowded places, being cautious in crowded places, and just staying clean, not touching your eyes.

接種疫苗、洗手，手部衛生是關鍵，避免去人多的地方，如果不能避免去人多的地方，在人多的地方也要小心，保持清潔，不要接觸眼睛。

Definitely not too late for the flu shot.

現在注射流感疫苗還為時不晚。

CDC is still recommending it, and it takes some time for that immunity to build, so the sooner you can get your flu shot, the better.

疾病預防控制中心仍在推薦注射流感疫苗，但免疫力的形成需要一定的時間，是以越早注射越好。

All right, Dr. Stephanie Woodward, thank you so much.

好的，斯蒂芬妮-伍德沃德博士，非常感謝。
