我國實現72小時快速查明300種突發傳染病原

A system that can detect 300 known pathogens of communicable diseases within 72 hours, has taken shape in China, the Ministry of Science and Technology said last Tuesday.

科技部上週二表示，我國已初步建立72小時內篩查300種已知傳染病病原體的檢測系統。

This suggests that the gap between China's detection of communicable diseases and diagnostic reagents and the interNational level has narrowed significantly, according to Xu Jianguo, an academician with the Chinese Academy of Engineering.

中國工程院院士徐建國表示，這表明我國的傳染病檢測技術和診斷試劑與國際水平之間的差距明顯縮小。

In 2008, the ministry launched a project on communicable disease prevention and treatment.

2008年，科技部啓動了傳染病防治項目。

The primary goal of the project was to establish a system for prevention and treatment of major communicable diseases such as AIDS and hepatitis.

該項目的主要目標是建立艾滋病、肝炎等重大傳染病防治系統。

Over the years, China has developed an inter-agency and inter-regional network for detecting communicable diseases, which has supported efforts to address major epidemics such as H1N1 flu and Zika fever, said Qin Huaijin, an official in charge of science and education at the National Health and Family Planning Commission.

國家衛計委科教司司長秦懷金表示，近年來，我國已建立跨機構、跨區域的傳染病檢測網絡，爲應對H1N1流感、寨卡熱等重大疫情的行動提供了支持。
