宾夕法尼亚卫生部门周三表示，一名未接种疫苗的兰开斯特县居民在检测出麻疹后不幸去世。卫生官员未透露该个人的进一步信息，称出于隐私保护的考虑。
The Pennsylvania department of health said on Wednesday that an unvaccinated Lancaster county resident who tested positive for measles had died. Health officials did not release further information about the individual, citing privacy protections.
此次死亡是今年宾夕法尼亚州第五例符合州定义的麻疹相关死亡，继两周前的第四例死亡之后。由于特朗普政府改变了麻疹死亡报告方式，疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）未将宾夕法尼亚州的麻疹死亡计入其全国总数。截至9月28日星期一，宾夕法尼亚州已记录40例新确诊病例。疫情已蔓延至39个县，累计确诊病例943例，住院176例，确认麻疹相关死亡5例。
The death marks the fifth Pennsylvania resident to meet the state’s definition of a measles-associated death this year after a fourth death two weeks ago. Due to how the Trump administration has changed its method for reporting measles deaths, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has not counted the Pennsylvania measles deaths in its national tally As of Monday, 28 September, Pennsylvania has recorded 40 new positive cases. The outbreak has now reached 39 counties, with 943 cumulative confirmed cases, 176 hospitalizations and five confirmed measles-associated deaths.
其中仅有四例确诊病例涉及已接种疫苗的人，占全州病例总数不到1%。
Only four of those confirmed cases have involved vaccinated individuals, representing less than 1% of the state’s total cases.
卫生官员表示，日常总数可能会变化，但监测这些数字能让居民和医疗保健提供者更清晰地了解宾夕法尼亚州的社区传播情况，并指导州政府的应对措施。
Health officials say daily totals can change, but monitoring the numbers gives residents and healthcare providers a clearer picture of community transmission across Pennsylvania and helps guide the state’s response.
兰开斯特县和米弗林县的农业社区仍是宾夕法尼亚州疫情的核心。根据约翰斯·霍普金斯大学的追踪，犹他州、佛罗里达州、弗吉尼亚州和德克萨斯州也报告了数十例病例。
Agricultural communities in Lancaster and Mifflin counties have remained at the center of Pennsylvania’s outbreak. Utah, Florida, Virginia and Texas have also reported dozens of cases, according to tracking from Johns Hopkins University.
自4月底疫情爆发以来，州卫生中心工作人员已通过180个临时接种点在受影响社区接种了超过5,500剂麻疹、腮腺炎和风疹（MMR）疫苗，周三发布的一份声明称。
Since the outbreak began in late April, staff at state health centers have administered more than 5,500 measles, mumps and rubella vaccine (MMR) vaccinations through 180 pop-up vaccination clinics in affected communities, according to a statement released Wednesday.
声明补充说，未来数周和数月将根据社区兴趣和需求计划数十个额外的接种点。
Dozens of additional vaccination clinics are planned for the coming weeks and months, depending on community interest and need, the statement added.
根据美国疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）的数据，2026年美国已报告超过3,600例麻疹病例。美国在2000年消除了麻疹，但在最近的疫情中尚不清楚是否还能保持这一地位。
More than 3,600 measles cases have been reported across the US in 2026, according to the CDC. The US eliminated measles in 2000, though it is unclear whether it can retain that status amid the recent outbreaks.
麻疹被认为是医学上已知的最具传染性的疾病之一。该疫苗可预防97%的麻疹病例。
Measles is considered one of the most contagious diseases known to medicine. The vaccine prevents 97% of measles cases.
幼儿园年龄儿童的接种率——这一重要指标——正慢慢下降，专家认为特朗普政府正在向家长传播关于疫苗的混淆和错误信息。
Vaccination rates among kindergarten-aged children, which are considered an important indicator, have slowly declined as experts argue the Trump administration is promoting confusion and misinformation about vaccines among parents.
本月早些时候，宾夕法尼亚州请求CDC提供紧急援助以应对麻疹疫情，但警告称，除非联邦机构公开承认该州报告的与麻疹相关的死亡，否则该请求可能被撤回。
Earlier this month, Pennsylvania requested emergency assistance from the CDC in response to the measles outbreak, but warned that the request could be withdrawn unless the federal agency publicly recognized the measles-associated deaths reported by the state.
争议始于美国卫生部长兼前反疫苗倡导组织负责人罗伯特·F·肯尼迪·朱尼尔公开质疑，自他上任以来与麻疹疫情相关的死亡是否由病毒引起，还是由其他原因导致。
The dispute began after Robert F Kennedy Jr, the US health secretary and former head of an anti-vaccine advocacy group, publicly questioned whether the deaths linked to the measles outbreaks since he took office were caused by the virus or by another condition.
