Pasadena 公共卫生部呼吁接种流感疫苗：加州阳性检测已达22,869例，两场免费社区诊所11月5日与19日举行
位于加州洛杉矶县的 Pasadena 市公共卫生部（Pasadena Public Health Department，PPHD）发布消息，呼吁所有尚未接种本季流感疫苗的6个月以上居民尽快接种，因为加州与洛杉矶县的流感活跃度正在上升。截至10月24日，加州已录得22,869例流感阳性检测，较9月的7,348例增加211.2%；包括 Pasadena 在内的洛杉矶县流感活跃度也较去年更早上升、增幅更大。本季截至目前，PPHD 尚未收到流感死亡报告。
该部门表示，流感疫苗有助于降低重症风险，对老年人和有基础疾病的人尤其重要。PPHD 今秋最后两场免费社区接种诊所为：11月5日（周四）下午1时30分至4时，Allendale 分馆图书馆（1130 S. Marengo Ave）；11月19日（周四）下午1时30分至4时，Hill Avenue 分馆图书馆（55 S. Hill Ave）。
Pasadena 卫生官员 Parveen Kaur 博士说：「今年的流感季开始得早。接种流感疫苗可以帮助你避免重症和住院。如果你感觉自己得了流感，请联系你的医疗服务提供者，看抗病毒药物是否适合你。」
该部门同时说明：出现流感样症状应尽快检测；重症高风险者应咨询医疗服务提供者并立即开始抗病毒药物治疗，不要等检测结果；生病后应留在家中，直到在不使用退烧药的情况下退烧至少24小时。流感抗病毒药物为处方药，可减轻症状、缩短病程，在症状出现后一至两天内开始服用效果最好；疾控中心建议，孕妇、哮喘与慢性肺病患者、糖尿病（含妊娠糖尿病）患者、心脏病患者等重症并发症高风险人群，一旦患流感或疑似流感应尽快接受治疗。居民也可通过自己的医生、本地药房或 MyTurn.ca.gov 预约接种。

Pasadena Public Health Department Urges Flu Shots as California Cases Rise: 22,869 Positive Tests and Two Free Community Clinics
The Pasadena Public Health Department (PPHD) in Pasadena, a city in Los Angeles County, California, is urging everyone 6 months and older who has not yet received this season's flu shot to get vaccinated as flu activity increases in California and Los Angeles County. As of October 24, California recorded 22,869 positive influenza tests, a 211.2% increase compared to the 7,348 positive tests in September. Los Angeles County, including Pasadena, is also experiencing an earlier increase in flu activity at a greater rate than last year. No flu deaths have been reported to PPHD for this seasonal year.
Flu vaccination helps reduce the risk of serious illness, particularly for older adults and people with underlying medical conditions, the department said. Everyone ages 6 months and older can get a free flu vaccine offered by PPHD at one of the final two community clinics this fall: Thursday, Nov. 5, 1:30–4 p.m., Allendale Branch Library, 1130 S. Marengo Ave; and Thursday, Nov. 19, 1:30–4 p.m., Hill Avenue Branch Library, 55 S. Hill Ave.
"This year's flu season is starting early. Getting a flu shot can help you avoid serious illness and hospital visits," said Dr. Parveen Kaur, Health Officer. "If you feel like you have the flu, contact your health care provider to see if antiviral medication may be right for you."
The department advised residents to get tested as soon as possible if they have flu-like symptoms; those at high risk of serious illness should consult a healthcare provider and start an antiviral drug right away without waiting for test results; and anyone sick should stay home until fever-free for at least 24 hours without fever-reducing medication. Flu antiviral drugs are prescription medicines that lessen symptoms and shorten illness and work best when started within one to two days after symptoms begin. The CDC recommends prompt treatment for people at increased risk of serious flu complications, such as pregnant women and people with asthma and chronic lung disease, diabetes (including gestational diabetes), or heart disease. Flu shots are also available through doctors, local pharmacies, or MyTurn.ca.gov.
