美国卫生官员目前未将宾夕法尼亚州8月报告的两例麻疹相关死亡纳入官方统计,其中至少包括一名新生儿。1该新生儿的母亲患有严重麻疹并提前一个月早产。1
美国卫生与公众服务部部长罗伯特·肯尼迪二世在福克斯新闻采访中声称"10年来,美国有3例麻疹死亡",1并暗示这两起死亡是"捏造的"。1
疾病控制与预防中心采取了不寻常的做法,在审查这些死亡情况之前暂不将其计入统计。1美国去年共报告3例麻疹死亡,分别来自德州和新墨西哥州,创十年来首次。1CDC在周五发布公告表示将延迟每周更新,统计数维持在零。1
前CDC首席医学官德布拉·豪瑞批评这一做法"高度不寻常",指出这与去年处理其他州报告的麻疹死亡的方式存在差异。1此外,美国麻疹疫苗接种率已跌至无法控制疫情暴发的阈值以下。1
US health officials are not including two measles-related deaths recently reported in Pennsylvania in the country's official statistics, at least one of which involved a newborn.1 The newborn's mother had severe measles and delivered prematurely one month early.1
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. provided incorrect measles death figures during a Fox News interview, stating that "over the past 10 years, there have been 3 measles deaths in America," and suggested the two Pennsylvania deaths were "fabricated."1 Last year, the United States reported 3 measles deaths in Texas and New Mexico, marking the first deaths from the disease in a decade.1 The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced on Friday that it would delay its weekly update and maintain the death count at zero while reviewing these cases.1
This approach represents a departure from standard practice and has drawn criticism from health experts. Former CDC Chief Medical Officer Deborah Houry characterized the decision as "highly unusual" and noted it differs from how the CDC handled measles deaths reported by other states last year.1 The United States' measles vaccination rates have fallen below the threshold necessary to prevent disease outbreaks.1
