10月5日周一，纽约州长凯西·霍楚尔（Kathy Hochul）因麻疹疫情宣布全州进入灾难紧急状态，这是自2025年病例开始激增以来美国各州首次做出此类宣布。
Oct 5 - New York Governor Kathy Hochul declared a statewide disaster emergency on Monday over a measles outbreak, the first such declaration by a U.S. state since cases began surging in 2025.
随着农村社区病例的增加，该州还扩大了允许接种麻疹、腮腺炎、风疹（MMR）疫苗的卫生专业人员范围。
The state also expanded the pool of health professionals allowed to administer measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccines as cases rise in rural communities.
霍楚尔在声明中表示：“任何人都不应因一种可通过疫苗预防的疾病而重病或死亡。”
"No one should get seriously ill or die from a vaccine-preventable disease," Hochul said in a statement.
根据行政命令，截至10月3日，纽约今年已报告108例麻疹病例，其中7月15日以来有92例发生在18个免疫接种不足的农村县，远高于往年的平均水平。
New York has reported 108 measles cases this year through October 3, including 92 since July 15 in under-immunized rural communities across 18 counties, well above typical annual levels, according to the executive order.
州长办公室表示，其中7例在纽约市，101例在州内其他地区。自7月15日以来，地方卫生部门已在农村地区接种了1,000多剂MMR疫苗。
Seven of the cases are in New York City and 101 are elsewhere in the state, the governor's office said. Local health departments have administered more than 1,000 MMR doses in rural areas since July 15.
该命令称，邻近的宾夕法尼亚州正在与一场快速蔓延的疫情作斗争，截至10月2日已有977例病例和5起死亡病例，主要集中在与纽约接壤的农村县。
Neighboring Pennsylvania is battling a fast-spreading outbreak, with 977 cases and five deaths as of October 2, mostly in rural counties that border New York, the order said.
宾夕法尼亚州卫生官员周一表示，该州总病例数已超过1,000例，成为三十多年来该州最大的一次疫情。
Pennsylvania health officials said on Monday the state's total had passed 1,000 cases, making it the largest state outbreak in more than three decades.
根据美国疾病控制与预防中心的数据，今年是美国自1991年以来麻疹疫情最严重的一年，已报告近3,900起病例。
The US is having its worst year for measles since 1991, with nearly 3,900 cases reported, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
该行政命令允许护士为疑似麻疹患者开具检测医嘱，并允许药剂师为年仅两岁的儿童接种疫苗。它还要求所有MMR疫苗接种情况必须在72小时内报告给州或纽约市免疫登记处，同时免除成年人对此类报告的同意程序。
The order allowsed nurses to order tests for suspected measles and pharmacists to vaccinate children as young as two. It also requires all MMR vaccinations to be reported to state or New York City immunization registries within 72 hours, while waiving adults' consent for such reporting.
疫苗接种本身仍需患者或法定监护人的同意。该紧急状态于周一生效，将持续至11月4日。
Vaccination itself still requires the consent of the patient or a legal guardian. The emergency took effect on Monday and runs through November 4.
