英国医护人员在刚果（金）感染埃博拉，将撤回英国接受专科治疗

英国伦敦消息，一名在刚果民主共和国感染埃博拉病毒的英国医护人员正在被撤回英国接受专科治疗。英国政府 11 月 4 日证实，这名英国公民在刚果民主共和国检测呈埃博拉阳性，患者情况稳定，预计 11 月 4 日星期三或 11 月 5 日星期四抵达英国，随后由专科救护车转送至高等级传染病专科病房接受治疗。

英国政府发言人说：“一名目前身在刚果民主共和国的英国公民埃博拉检测呈阳性。英国对此类病例有完备的处置程序，相关程序已经启动。英国公众面临的风险仍然很低。”据路透社看到的一份官方文件，英国当局预计此病例不会对英国公共卫生造成严重影响，也不预计会对国际旅行或贸易造成干扰。

这名患者身份未公开，由一家国际人道主义组织派往刚果民主共和国支援当地疫情应对工作。此病例是本轮疫情中首例涉及英国公民的感染病例，另有数名其他欧洲国家的公民也在本轮疫情中感染。

刚果民主共和国本轮疫情于 5 月 15 日宣布，是有记录以来规模第二大的埃博拉疫情；路透社称，截至 10 月下旬，本轮疫情已报告逾 1 万例确诊病例、近 5000 人死亡。英国输入性埃博拉病例极为罕见，据英国卫生安全局统计，自 1976 年以来英国仅记录 4 例确诊病例，其中 1 例为 1976 年实验室针刺事故，3 例为 2014 年至 2015 年赴西非应对疫情的医护人员。

British Health Worker With Ebola to Be Evacuated From DR Congo to UK for Specialist Treatment

LONDON — A British healthcare worker who contracted Ebola in the Democratic Republic of Congo is being flown back to Britain for specialist treatment. The British government confirmed on November 4 that a British citizen currently in the DR Congo had tested positive for Ebola; the patient is in a stable condition and is expected to arrive in Britain on Wednesday, November 4, or Thursday, November 5, before being transferred by specialist ambulance to a high-consequence infectious disease unit.

"A British citizen currently in the DR Congo has tested positive for Ebola," a British government spokesperson said. "The UK has well-established procedures for dealing with cases like this, and those processes have been activated. The risk to the UK public from Ebola remains low." According to an official document seen by Reuters, British authorities did not expect the case to have a serious public health impact in Britain, and anticipated no disruption to international travel or trade.

The patient, whose identity has not been disclosed, had been sent to the DR Congo by a humanitarian organisation to help support the response to the outbreak. It is the first case involving a British national linked to the current outbreak, although several other people from elsewhere in Europe have also been infected.

The outbreak in the DR Congo, declared on May 15, is the second-largest on record; Reuters reported more than 10,000 confirmed cases and nearly 5,000 deaths by late October. Imported Ebola cases in Britain remain extremely uncommon: only four confirmed cases have been recorded in the country since 1976, according to the UK Health Security Agency — one in 1976 resulting from a laboratory needle incident, and three involving health workers who responded to the outbreak in West Africa between 2014 and 2015.
