1994年1月以来,一种被称为“快速坏疽病”的致命疾病在英国引起重视。 5月25日,英国一家报纸刊登了一幅患者的照片,十分怕人,标题是:“杀人菌吞噬了我的脸”、“秘密细菌再夺人命”。这种“食人肉”的细菌是一种罕见的恶性链球菌,医学上称为甲型链球菌。细菌进入人体后能释放毒素,使人的肌肤和脂肪坏死。坏死的速度为每小时1英寸,故有“快速坏疽病”之称。
Since January 1994, a fatal disease known as “rapid gangrene” has drawn great attention in Britain. On May 25, a British newspaper published a photograph of a patient who was very scared and titled: “Killer Bacteria Swallowed My Face,” “Secret Bacteria Take Another Life.” This “cannibal” bacteria is a rare Streptococcus, called Streptococcus aurica in medicine. Bacteria enter the body to release toxins, make the skin and fat necrosis. The rate of necrosis is 1 inch per hour, so it is called “rapid gangrene”.
