2月17日 武漢肺炎 愛爾蘭 重點綜合報導 17 Feb 2020 Coronavirus in Ireland news summary

昨晚，一名疑似感染致命冠狀病毒的患者在愛爾蘭一家醫院接受治療。

醫務人員告訴人們除非“有必要”到訪, 否則不要去都柏林的聖文森特大學醫院 St Vincent’s University Hospital。

這是因為一名人（據說是女性）在醫院表現了類似冠狀病毒的症狀。

當時在急診室就診的一些人處於“恐慌狀態”，而這名病人就安排到隔離的地方。

消息人士說：“這是一位年長女士，60多至70多歲，似乎是愛爾蘭人。”

愛爾蘭太陽報（Irish Sun）要求聖文森特（St Vincent’s）對此事發表評論時，醫院發言人表示：“考慮到病人的私隱，該醫院不會就病人的事對第三方發表評論。”

A PATIENT suspected of contracting deadly coronvirus was being treated at an Irish hospital last night.

Medical staff were telling people not to travel to St Vincent’s University Hospital in Dublin unless the visit was “necessary”.

The move came after a patient – believed to be a woman – presented at the hospital showing symptoms similar to coronavirus.

The patient was placed in isolation as onlookers told of some people “panic mode” who were attending the emergency department.

The source said: “It’s an older lady, late 60s early 70s, she appears to be Irish.”

When the Irish Sun asked St Vincent’s to comment on the matter, a hospital spokeswoman told us: “Respecting patient confidentiality, SVUH do not comment on patients with third parties.”
