Water Transmission and COVID-19
Drinking Water, Recreational Water and Wastewater: What You Need to Know
　　隨著新冠疫情在海外的大規(guī)模爆發(fā)，海外對(duì)新冠病毒的研究逐漸深入。繼美國(guó)環(huán)?？偸穑‥PA）發(fā)布關(guān)于飲用水和污水中的新冠病毒的解答后（疫情跟蹤 | 美國(guó)EPA：就飲用水和污水中的新冠病毒對(duì)公眾的權(quán)威解答），美國(guó)疾控中心（CDC）下屬的國(guó)家免疫與呼吸系統(tǒng)疾病中心（NCIRD）近日也針對(duì)民眾關(guān)切的飲用水、娛樂(lè)用水和污水中新冠病毒的傳播風(fēng)險(xiǎn)進(jìn)行了解答。CDC的大體看法和EPA類(lèi)似，即：新冠病毒通過(guò)飲用水、糞-口、排水系統(tǒng)傳播的可能性低且尚無(wú)明確證據(jù)支撐其可能性，但仍建議污水處理相關(guān)工作人員做好防護(hù)，避免直接接觸未處理的污水。

新冠病毒通過(guò)飲用水、娛樂(lè)用水和污水傳播的幾點(diǎn)解答
　　Q:　Can the COVID-19 virus spread through drinking water?
　　導(dǎo)致新冠肺炎（COVID-19）的新冠病毒是否能通過(guò)飲用水傳播?
　　A:　The COVID-19 virus has not been detected in drinking water. Conventional water treatment methods that use filtration and disinfection, such as those in most municipal drinking water systems, should remove or inactivate the virus that causes COVID-19.
　　尚未在飲用水中檢測(cè)到導(dǎo)致新冠肺炎的新冠病毒。大多數(shù)市政自來(lái)水廠的飲用水處理系統(tǒng)的常規(guī)工藝中都包含了過(guò)濾和消毒模塊，可以去除或滅活該病毒。
　　Q:　Is the COVID-19 virus found in feces?
　　糞便中是否發(fā)現(xiàn)了導(dǎo)致新冠肺炎（COVID-19）的新冠病毒?
　　A:　The virus that causes COVID-19 has been detected in the feces of some patients diagnosed with COVID-19. The amount of virus released from the body (shed) in stool, how long the virus is shed, and whether the virus in stool is infectious are not known.
　　The risk of transmission of COVID-19 from the feces of an infected person is also unknown. However, the risk is expected to be low based on data from previous outbreaks of related coronaviruses, such as severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS). There have been no reports of fecal-oral transmission of COVID-19 to date.
　　確實(shí)，我們?cè)谝恍┐_診為新冠肺炎的患者的糞便中檢測(cè)到了導(dǎo)致致病的新冠病毒。糞便中含有多少數(shù)量的病毒，能夠從糞便中擴(kuò)散多久，以及糞便中的病毒是否具有傳染性尚不清楚。
　　通過(guò)糞-口途徑感染COVID-19的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)目前也是未知的。然而，根據(jù)以往爆發(fā)過(guò)的冠狀病毒疫情（如嚴(yán)重急性呼吸道綜合征和中東呼吸綜合征）的資料來(lái)看，預(yù)計(jì)該風(fēng)險(xiǎn)較低。迄今為止，也沒(méi)有關(guān)于發(fā)現(xiàn)通過(guò)糞-口傳播途徑感染新冠肺炎的案例。
　　Q:　Can the COVID-19 virus spread through pools and hot tubs?
　　導(dǎo)致新冠肺炎（COVID-19）的新冠病毒能否通過(guò)水池和熱水浴缸傳播?
　　A:　There is no evidence that COVID-19 can be spread to humans through the use of pools and hot tubs. Proper operation, maintenance, and disinfection (e.g., with chlorine and bromine) of pools and hot tubs should remove or inactivate the virus that causes COVID-19.
　　沒(méi)有證據(jù)表明，人們?cè)谑褂盟睾蜔崴「讜r(shí)會(huì)引發(fā)新冠病毒的感染。對(duì)泳池和熱水浴缸進(jìn)行正確的操作、維護(hù)和消毒(例如，用氯和溴)，可以去除或滅活新冠病毒。
　　Q:　Can the COVID-19 virus spread through sewerage systems?
　　導(dǎo)致新冠肺炎（COVID-19）的新冠病毒能否通過(guò)下水道系統(tǒng)傳播?
　　A:　CDC is reviewing all data on COVID-19 transmission as information becomes available. At this time, the risk of transmission of the virus that causes COVID-19 through sewerage systems is thought to be low. Although transmission of COVID-19 through sewage may be possible, there is no evidence to date that this has occurred. This guidance will be updated as necessary as new evidence is assessed.
　　SARS, a similar coronavirus, has been detected in untreated sewage for up to 2 to 14 days. In the 2003 SARS outbreak, there was documented transmission associated with sewage aerosols. Data suggest that standard municipal wastewater system chlorination practices may be sufficient to inactivate coronaviruses, as long as utilities monitor free available chlorine during treatment to ensure it has not been depleted.
　　Wastewater and sewage workers should use standard practices, practice basic hygiene precautions, and wear personal protective equipment (PPE) as prescribed for current work tasks.
　　美國(guó)疾病控制和預(yù)防中心（CDC）正在查閱所有關(guān)于新冠肺炎病毒傳播的案例資料。目前，病毒通過(guò)下水道系統(tǒng)進(jìn)行傳播的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)被認(rèn)為是很低的。雖然新冠病毒通過(guò)污水傳播具有可能性，但迄今為止并沒(méi)有證據(jù)表明發(fā)生過(guò)這類(lèi)情況。如果能夠得到（可以證實(shí)病毒可以通過(guò)下水道傳播）新的證據(jù)，我們將在相應(yīng)的指南中更新這一情況。
　　SARS病毒是一種類(lèi)似的冠狀病毒，在未經(jīng)處理的污水中曾被檢測(cè)到可以存活2~14天。2003年，當(dāng)SARS疫情爆發(fā)時(shí)，曾有研究記錄顯示SARS病毒的傳播與污水氣溶膠有關(guān)。但同時(shí)游離氯的監(jiān)測(cè)數(shù)據(jù)資料也顯示，只要污水中還存在游離氯，城市污水系統(tǒng)的氯化消毒工藝可能足以滅活冠狀病毒。
　　涉及污水處理的工作人員應(yīng)按照規(guī)定使用標(biāo)準(zhǔn)操作規(guī)程，執(zhí)行基本衛(wèi)生防護(hù)措施，并穿戴個(gè)人防護(hù)裝備(PPE)才可以開(kāi)展相關(guān)的工作任務(wù)。
　　Q:　Should wastewater workers take extra precautions to protect themselves from the COVID-19 virus?
　　污水處理的工作人員是否應(yīng)該采取額外的預(yù)防措施來(lái)保護(hù)自己免受新冠病毒的感染?
　　A:　Wastewater treatment plant operations should ensure workers follow routine practices to prevent exposure to wastewater. These include using engineering and administrative controls, safe work practices, and PPE normally required for work tasks when handling untreated wastewater. No additional COVID-19–specific protections are recommended for employees involved in wastewater management operations, including those at wastewater treatment facilities.
　　污水處理廠應(yīng)確保工作人員遵循標(biāo)準(zhǔn)規(guī)范的操作要求以防止直接接觸污水。其中包括使用工程管理和行政管理的手段、安全的工作方法，并要求可能與未處理的污水接觸的工作人員穿戴好個(gè)人防護(hù)裝備（PPE）。對(duì)于管理崗位的工作人員，包括設(shè)施設(shè)備管理的人員，不需要進(jìn)行額外的專(zhuān)用保護(hù)。
