帶有西尼羅病毒(West Nile Virus)的蚊蟲每年夏季在紐約市十 分活躍，尤其皇后區、布碌崙這兩個華人移民眾多的行政區，根據 紐約市衛生局的西尼羅病毒地圖顯示，包括法拉盛在內的皇后區大 部份東北部社區，布碌崙日落公園郵編11232及11210社區，曼哈 頓東百老匯(East Broadway)、格蘭街(Grand St.)郵編10002地區， 檢測到攜帶西尼羅病毒的蚊子。紐約市衛生與心理衛生局拉響西尼 羅病毒傳播警報，加強對皇后區及布碌崙地區噴灑殺蟲劑，消滅蚊 子，降低人類感染西尼羅河病毒的風險。 ▍本報記者陳裕光紐約報道 ▍ 西尼羅病毒可經由蚊子叮咬傳染 給人類，部分感染者可能出現 嚴重病症，包括腦膜炎與腦炎，尤 其對65歲以上的長者與免疫力較弱 者風險更高。 紐約市衛生局將在1 1日 ( 周 一)晚上8時3 0分至隔日的早上6 時之間，派出一輛卡車在皇后 區牙買加( Jama i ca )、南牙買加、 Brooklville、羅倫頓(Laurelton) 、 蝗蟲莊園(Locust Manor)、羅奇代 爾(Rochdale)、(Rosedale)、聖奧爾 本斯(Saint Albans)、以及春田花園 (Springfield Gardens)花園噴灑殺蟲 劑以減少成蚊數量。 布碌崙地區的噴灑工作將在 13日(周三)晚8時30分至隔日早上6 時進行，噴灑工作範圍包括Bergen 海灘、Canarsie、東弗萊布士、東 中木、Flat lands、Georgetown、 Madison、海軍公園(Marine Park)、 中木、Mil Basin、Remsen Village、 羊頭灣及小星城(Starrett City)。 衛生局提出警告，噴灑的殺 蟲劑是濃度極低的Anvi l、Duet或 MERUS 3。雖然這些殺蟲劑對人類 和寵物的風險較低，但對噴霧成分 敏感的人士可能會出現皮疹或短期 眼部或咽喉刺激。患有呼吸系統疾 病的人也可能受到影響。 為了避免在噴灑過程中患上任 何這些疾病，衛生部門建議人們待 在室內。窗戶應保持關閉，以防止 噴霧進入室內。空調可以保持開 啟。雖然通常沒有必要，但人們可 以關閉空調通風口或選擇內循環功 能。在噴灑後的幾小時和幾天內， 建議那些可能仍然接觸到農藥的人 用肥皂和水清洗皮膚和衣物。衛生 部門建議，水果和蔬菜在食用前務 必用水清洗。 皇后區噴灑作業社區以及整個 行政區的居民應注意清除房屋內或 周圍的積水，並丟棄任何可能積水 的容器。積水違反了《紐約市衛生法 規》，因為蚊子喜歡在積水處產卵。 公眾可以採取其他一些措施來 減少接觸蚊子的機會，包括確保屋 頂排水溝清潔且排水暢通；確保窗 戶紗窗沒有破損或孔洞；以及使用 經批准的驅蟲劑，這些驅蟲劑含有 避蚊胺 (DEET)、派卡瑞丁，或者對 於三歲以上的兒童，可以使用檸檬 桉油。含有活性成分乙基丁基乙醯 氨基丙酸酯（也稱為IR3535）的驅蟲 產品也可能有效。 同樣重要的是，擁有游泳池、 戶外桑拿房和熱水浴缸的人務必保 持清潔並進行氯化處理。不使用 時，應將其清空或蓋好。池蓋中積 水也必須排出。 要了解更多關於西尼羅河病毒 和蚊蟲預防的信息，請致電311或 訪問nyc.gov。 ■紐約市衛生局的西尼羅病毒地圖顯示，包括法拉盛在內的皇后區大部分 東北部社區，布碌崙日落公園及曼哈下東城區均發現帶西尼羅病毒的蚊子。 布碌崙再肇嚴重車禍，一名 45歲的女子周六（9日）清晨在肯星 頓區（Kensington）越過馬路時， 遭一部急駛而至的汽車撞及，蒙 受嚴重受傷至到昨日晚上仍在醫 院被急救。警方沒有公布傷者的 身份。 警方初步調查發現，被撞女 子是在周六清晨時分，在該區約 過馬路時，遭一架在C大道，在靠 近海洋公園大道（Ocean Parkway） 的街口行駛，由一名71歲的司機 駕駛的汽車撞及，有目擊者報警 後，警員到場調查也招來緊急救 護車將傷者送往附近醫院急救， 其傷勢嚴重仍在危急之中。而涉 案司機則留在現場協助警方調 查，至到昨日下午無人被捕。 這是布碌崙華人社區一月來 的第四宗嚴重車禍，就在本周三 （6日），在在賓臣墟的一個繁忙的 18大道夾86街十字路口，一名76 歲的華裔老嫗於凌晨2時遭一輛衝 過紅燈的電單車撞及送院後傷重 去世，而涉案單車騎士卻畏罪潛 逃，至今仍在警通緝。 而在這之前，於7月8日一名 90歲華翁在布碌崙賓臣墟遭遭一 部小型摩托車撞及，頭部重傷 斃命，涉案的摩托車騎士也畏罪 潛逃，至到一周後才被逮捕。車 禍發生後三天，7月11日清晨4時 多，59歲的林發秋(Faqiu Lin)、80 歲的陳可勳遜(Kexun Chen)也在 日落公園穿越3大道時，被一輛超 速行駛的寶馬車撞飛，當場死亡。 本報記者林意善紐約報道 布碌崙華社再肇嚴重車禍 45歲女子過馬路被撞傷 本報此前曾報道，曼哈頓本周 早些時候再發生一起針對耆老的無 端襲擊案。 一名年過9旬的老翁在蘋果店內 被陌生男子無端毆打摔傷。而傷人 者則在施暴後揚長而去。經過多日 調查與追蹤，案件在本周末再獲進 展，涉案遊民被警方逮捕歸案，並 訴以了襲擊罪。目前案件檢控正在 進行中。 根據警方，涉案人員為現年 31歲的非裔男子雷諾斯（Lewi s D Reynolds），為一名遊民。 市警消息，這起案件發生於8月 5日下午5時46分許。 據現年94歲的受害老翁向警方 主張，案發當時他剛在位於麥迪遜 大道（Madison Ave）940號的蘋果商 鋪內買了一隻表，隨後被闖入店鋪 一直向周圍人發瘋挑釁的雷諾斯 靠近，突然無端揮拳打向老人的面 部。強烈的衝擊致老人徑直摔倒在 地。 本報記者孟莎紐約報道 皇后區布碌崙發現西尼羅病毒 B3 08.10.2025 星期日 僑社 衛生局11日起噴藥殺蚊 N25G30CG Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office in New York Invest Hong Kong Desk Head of Investment Promotion (New York) Salary: USD $10,724 to USD $19,914 gross per month, depending on the relevant qualification and work experience of the candidate.
