由于登革热在佛罗里达州的蔓延，该州已有三个县宣布进入紧急状态。
Three Florida counties have declared states of emergency amid the spread of dengue fever in the state.
根据各县的官方声明，截至9月23日，帕斯科县（Pasco County）、希尔斯伯勒县（Hillsborough County）和皮内拉斯县（Pinellas County）均已因这种由蚊子传播的疾病而宣布进入紧急状态。
As of Sept. 23, Pasco County, Hillsborough County and Pinellas County have made the declarations due to a spread of the mosquito-borne disease, according to each county’s news release.
这些紧急状态令允许县政府加快蚊虫控制工作的进度、进行紧急采购、协调应对措施，并在必要时寻求州或联邦政府的援助或资金补偿。
The local emergency declarations allow county officials to expedite mosquito-control operations, make emergency purchases, coordinate response efforts and, where applicable, seek state or federal assistance or reimbursement, the releases state.
根据佛罗里达州的法律，地方紧急状态的有效期为七天，除非得到续期。

根据佛罗里达州卫生部门的最新监测报告，截至9月19日，该州六个县共确认了190例本地感染的登革热病例。其中，希尔斯伯勒县报告了170例，迈阿密-戴德县（Miami-Dade County）和皮内拉斯县各报告了7例，奥兰治县（Orange County）报告了3例，帕斯科县报告了2例，棕榈滩县（Palm Beach County）报告了1例。
A total of 190 locally acquired dengue cases have been confirmed across six Florida counties, according to the latest Florida Department of Health surveillance report, which covered cases with onset through Sept. 19. Of the 190 locally acquired cases, 170 were reported in Hillsborough County, seven each in Miami-Dade and Pinellas counties, three in Orange County, two in Pasco County and one in Palm Beach County.
这190例本地感染病例与今年在佛罗里达州报告的旅行相关登革热病例是相互独立的。
The 190 locally acquired infections are separate from travel-associated dengue cases reported in Florida this year.
另一种由蜱虫传播的疾病——“兔热病”（Rabbit Fever）也在该州的主要城市地区出现病例。
TICK-BORNE 'RABBIT FEVER' SPREADS WITH CASES REPORTED NEAR MAJOR METRO AREA Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral illness that can cause fever, severe aches, nausea, rash and, in rare cases, life-threatening complications, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
根据美国疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）的说明，登革热是一种由蚊子传播的病毒性疾病，可引发发热、剧烈疼痛、恶心、皮疹等症状；在极少数情况下，还可能导致危及生命的并发症。
Dengue is endemic in many tropical and subtropical regions, including Southeast Asia, the Western Pacific islands, Latin America and Africa.
登革热在许多热带和亚热带地区流行，包括东南亚、西太平洋岛屿、拉丁美洲和非洲。虽然在美国本土较为罕见，但佛罗里达州、加利福尼亚州和德克萨斯州也曾出现过本地感染病例。点击此处获取更多健康资讯“能够传播登革热的伊蚊在白天活动，并在佛罗里达州常见的温暖潮湿环境中繁衍生息。”SC强生昆虫科学与家庭健康中心（OFF!品牌制造商）的昆虫学发言人向福克斯新闻数字版发送的一份声明中表示。
Though less common in the continental U.S., locally acquired cases have been recorded in Florida, California and Texas.

"As dengue cases continue to be reported in the Tampa area, taking steps to help prevent mosquito bites is especially important," the expert went on. "Staying aware of local mosquito activity and consistently protecting against bites are important steps people can take to help reduce their risk."
该专家继续说道：“随着坦帕地区持续报告登革热病例，采取步骤帮助预防蚊虫叮咬尤为重要。关注当地蚊虫活动并持续做好防叮咬措施，是人们降低感染风险的重要步骤。”据报告，佛罗里达灭蚊协会（FMCA）此前表示，工作人员正在登革病毒活跃区域增加空中和地面喷洒处理，同时检查私人物业，排查潜在的蚊虫滋生地。
The Florida Mosquito Control Association (FMCA) previously said crews are increasing aerial and ground treatments in areas showing dengue virus activity, while also inspecting private properties for potential mosquito breeding sites, according to reports. FMCA has urged residents to empty or cover standing water around their homes.
FMCA已敦促居民清空或遮盖房屋周围的积水。专家表示，传播登革热的蚊虫属于容器滋生型，意味着它们会在桶、花盆、植物托盘、轮胎、废弃玩具以及其他能积聚少量水分的物体中产卵。
The mosquito that spreads dengue is a container breeder, meaning it lays eggs in buckets, planters, plant saucers, tires, discarded toys and other objects that collect small amounts of water, experts say.

The FMCA also advises people to dress in long sleeves, light colors and closed-toed shoes outdoors. Many people infected with dengue have no symptoms, and most people who do become sick recover within a week or two, according to Mayo Clinic.
据梅奥诊所称，许多感染登革热的人没有症状，而大多数出现症状的患者在一到两周内即可康复。
TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ In some cases, however, the illness can progress to severe dengue, a potentially life-threatening condition.
用我们最新的生活方式测验测试自己 然而，在某些情况下，病情可能发展为重症登革热，这是一种可能危及生命的状况。症状通常在被受感染的蚊虫叮咬后四到十天开始显现。
Symptoms typically begin four to 10 days after the bite of an infected mosquito. Warning signs can develop quickly, often within a day or two after the fever subsides.
警告信号可能会在发热消退后的一两天内迅速出现，这些症状可能包括严重的腹痛、反复呕吐、异常出血或瘀伤、呼吸困难、极度疲劳、易怒以及烦躁不安。出现登革热严重症状警告信号的人应立即寻求医疗救助。
Those may include severe stomach pain, repeated vomiting, unusual bleeding or bruising, difficulty breathing, extreme tiredness and irritability, or restlessness. People experiencing warning signs of severe dengue should seek immediate medical care.
