美国有线新闻 CNN 大肠杆菌危险的一面（在线收听）

E. coli is a type of bacteria. It lives in your intestines and it leaves in the intestines of animals.

大肠杆菌是一种细菌。它生活在人和动物的肠子里.

Most of the time, E. coli is harmless. You`re not going to get sick. But there are some strains that can get you sick.

大多数时候，大肠杆菌是无害的。你不会因此而生病。但是有些菌株会让你生病。

E. coli 0157:H7 is a particularly dangerous strain of E. coli. You can get it from undercooked ground meat. You can get it from vegetables, from unpasteurized milk and juice, from soft cheeses.

H7是一种特别危险的大肠杆菌菌株。它存在于未煮熟的碎肉中、蔬菜中、未经高温消毒的牛奶和果汁以及软干酪中。

While it is found in vegetables, ultimately, an animal is the source. So, animal waste somehow has come in contact with crops.

虽然它在蔬菜中可以发现H7菌种，但最终，动物是来源。因为，动物粪便与农作物有某种联系。

Children and adults with weakened immune system, they`re the most vulnerable to getting very sick. The signs of E. coli poisoning are nausea and vomiting, abdominal pain, cramps, fatigue and fever. Most people who get sick from E. coli, they recover in five to 10 days. But some people, they get really sick. Their organs can shut down and they can die.

免疫力低下的儿童和成人，最容易生病。大肠杆菌中毒的症状是恶心、呕吐、腹痛、痉挛、疲劳和发烧。大多数感染大肠杆菌的人会在5到10天内康复。但是有些人，他们病情严重。人体的器官会被关闭，而最终导致这些患者死亡。

There are things that you can do to prevent an E. coli infection. Wash your fruits and vegetables, cook your meats thoroughly, use a thermometer and get that thermometer up to 160 degrees.

可以做一些事情来预防大肠杆菌感染。洗净水果和蔬菜，彻底煮熟肉类，使用温度计，把温度计调到160度。

There`s no cure for an E. coli infection. Antibiotics don`t work. So, the best thing you can do is keep yourself hydrated and keep yourself rested.

没有治愈大肠杆菌的方法。抗生素不起作用。所以，你能做的最好的事情就是多喝水，多休息。
