近日来,山东疫苗事件持续发酵,本地一些家长也出于担忧暂缓让孩子接种。请看本报昨日的报道:
In a community clinic Lin Yixuan’s son was about to get a vaccine against measles and mumps, but the father called off the injection at the last moment.
“I can’t help worrying,” said Lin, a medical news reporter who has followed the ongoing vaccine scandal, which already involves 570 million yuan (US$90 million) of improperly stored and potentially fatal vaccines distributed across two-thirds of China in the past five years.
报道中的vaccine就是“疫苗”,动词vaccinate就是“注射疫苗”。例如:
She was vaccinated against smallpox as a child.
她小时候就接种了天花疫苗。
Scientists have confirmed that it is possible to develop a malaria vaccine.
科学家证实,研发一种疟疾疫苗是可能的。
