<p>/PRNewswire/ -- 今天，美国肺协会发起了一项运动，旨在教育公众了解免疫接种在预防呼吸系统疾病中的重要性。疫苗是帮助人们预防严重疾病、住院甚至死亡的最佳工具，适用于多种疾病，包括流感；COVID-19；肺炎球菌性肺炎；百日咳；以及呼吸道合胞病毒（RSV），尤其是对于健康并发症高风险的个体。</p>
<p>每年，美国有数百万人因呼吸系统疾病而生病，某些季节性病毒病例通常在 10 月至 3 月之间达到高峰。根据疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）的初步估计，在 2024-2025 年呼吸病毒季节，流感病例预计高达 8200 万，导致高达 3700 万次就医，高达 130 万次住院，以及 127,000 至 130,000 例死亡。在 2023-2024 年呼吸季节，CDC 报告称，COVID-19 疫苗接种预防了 68,000 次住院，13,000 次重症监护室（ICU）入院和 5,300 例院内死亡。</p>
<p>“免疫接种对老年人和某些健康状况的个体尤其重要，他们面临着因这些可预防疫苗的呼吸系统疾病而导致严重疾病、并发症和住院的风险，” 美国肺协会主席兼首席执行官哈罗德·维默（Harold Wimmer）表示。“不接种疫苗会使你、你的家人和邻居面临严重疾病的风险。”</p>
<p>疫苗帮助身体准备抵御病毒和细菌等病原体。通过接种疫苗获得的免疫力通常比生病后获得的免疫力（也称为 “自然免疫”）更安全且持续时间更长，因为你无法预测疾病的严重程度和恢复所需的时间。</p>
<p>老年人和某些健康状况的个体面临着可通过疫苗接种预防的呼吸系统疾病的严重并发症风险。未接种疫苗的老年人面临着因流感、肺炎球菌性肺炎、RSV 或 COVID-19 而住院甚至死亡的更高风险。这是因为，随着年龄的增长，免疫系统自然减弱，使他们更容易感染。此外，老年人通常有一个或多个基础健康状况，如哮喘或其他慢性肺病、心脏病、糖尿病等，这进一步增加了他们的风险。呼吸道感染可能会加重现有的慢性病，如慢性阻塞性肺病（COPD），导致生活质量下降和恢复时间延长。</p>
<p>肺协会的新运动正在提高人们对这五种疫苗接种重要性的认识，以帮助保护成年人免受严重呼吸系统疾病的影响：</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>流感（flu）：</strong> 建议所有 6 个月及以上的人每年接种流感疫苗，理想情况下在 9 月/10 月进行，尽管疫苗接种可以在整个季节继续进行，因为流感病毒会传播。</li>
<li><strong>COVID-19</strong>：建议所有 6 个月及以上的人接种 COVID-19 疫苗，需进行共同临床决策，即患者或护理人员与其医疗提供者之间的讨论。</li>
<li><strong>RSV：</strong> 年龄在 50 至 74 岁之间且面临严重 RSV 疾病风险的成年人，以及 75 岁及以上的成年人，如果之前未接种过，应接种一次疫苗；不建议额外接种。</li>
<li><strong>百日咳（whooping cough）：</strong> Tdap 是一种组合疫苗，提供对百日咳的保护，建议所有成年人接种。Tdap 疫苗可以在一年中的任何时间接种，尤其对与哮喘或 COPD 患者同住的成年人尤为重要，他们面临更高的并发症风险。</li>
<li><strong>肺炎球菌性肺炎：</strong> 建议 19 至 49 岁有某些慢性健康状况或风险因素的成年人，以及所有 50 岁及以上的成年人接种肺炎球菌疫苗。</li>
</ul>
<p>孕妇和免疫系统受损的个体通常有额外的疫苗接种建议，应咨询其医疗提供者，以确保他们的疫苗接种是最新的。</p>
<p>通常，可以在一次医疗提供者的就诊中接种多种疫苗；请向您的医疗提供者询问推荐的疫苗。有关更多信息，请联系肺协会的帮助热线，电话为 1-800-LUNGUSA。要了解更多关于疫苗的信息，请访问 Lung.org/vaccines。</p>
<p>这项新运动得到了赛诺菲（Sanofi）的支持。</p>

<p>美国肺脏协会发起了一项运动，旨在推广针对呼吸系统疾病的疫苗接种，强调其在预防重症、住院和死亡方面的重要性。该运动针对高风险群体，包括老年人和有慢性健康状况的人。推荐的疫苗包括流感疫苗、COVID-19 疫苗、RSV 疫苗、百日咳疫苗和肺炎球菌疫苗。该倡议旨在提高人们对免疫接种益处的认识，特别是在每年 10 月至 3 月的呼吸病毒高发季节。该运动得到了赛诺菲的支持</p>

<p>, /PRNewswire/ -- Today, the American Lung Association launched a campaign to educate individuals about the importance of immunizations to protect against respiratory diseases. Vaccines are the best tool to help protect people from severe illness, hospitalization and even death from several illnesses, including influenza (flu); COVID-19; pneumococcal pneumonia; pertussis (whopping cough); and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), especially for individuals at high risk for health complications.</p>

</div><p>Millions of people in the United States get sick from respiratory illnesses each year, with some seasonal virus cases typically peaking from October through March. During the 2024-2025 respiratory virus season, it is estimated that there were up to 82 million cases of the flu alone, resulting in up to 37 million medical visits, up to 1.3 million hospitalizations, and between 127,000 and 130,000 deaths, according to Centers for Disease Control &amp; Prevention (CDC) preliminary estimates. During the 2023-2024 respiratory season, the CDC reported that COVID-19 vaccination prevented 68,000 hospitalizations, 13,000 intensive care unit (ICU) admissions and 5,300 in-hospital deaths.</p>

</div><p>&#34;Immunization is especially important for older adults and individuals with certain health conditions who are at increased risk of severe illness, complications and hospitalization from these vaccine-preventable respiratory diseases,&#34; said Harold Wimmer, President and CEO of the American Lung Association. &#34;Not getting vaccinated puts you, your family and your neighbors at risk for severe disease.&#34;</p>

</div><p>Vaccines help prepare the body to defend itself from germs like viruses and bacteria. And immunity through vaccination is safer and often longer lasting than immunity you develop after you get sick (also known as &#34;natural immunity&#34;) as you cannot predict the severity of illness and recovery needed from a disease.</p>

</div><p>Older adults and individuals with certain health conditions are at increased risk of severe complications from respiratory diseases that are preventable through vaccination. An unvaccinated older adult faces a higher risk of hospitalization and even death from the flu, pneumococcal pneumonia, RSV or COVID-19. This is because, as people age, their immune system naturally weakens, making them more susceptible to infections. Also, older adults often have one or more underlying health conditions like asthma or other chronic lung disease, heart disease, diabetes, etc., which further increases their risk. Respiratory infections can worsen existing chronic conditions like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), leading to decreased quality of life and prolonged recovery times.</p>

<div class="lb-trans"><p>肺协会的新运动正在提高人们对这五种疫苗接种重要性的认识，以帮助保护成年人免受严重呼吸系统疾病的影响：</p>
</div><ul>
<li><strong>Influenza(flu):</strong> Annual flu vaccination is recommended for everyone age 6 months and older, ideally in September/October though vaccination can continue throughout the season as the flu virus circulates.</li>
<li><strong>COVID-19</strong>: COVID-19 vaccination is recommended for everyone six months and older with shared clinical decision-making, which is a discussion between a patient or caregiver and their healthcare provider.</li>
<li><strong>RSV:</strong> Adults ages 50-74 who are at increased risk of severe RSV disease, and adults age 75 and older should receive a single vaccine if they have not received one previously; additional doses are not recommended.</li>
<li><strong>Pertussis (whooping cough):</strong> Tdap is a combination vaccine that provides protection against pertussis and is recommended for all adults. A Tdap vaccine can be given at any time of the year and is especially important for adults living with asthma or COPD, who are at higher risk for complications.</li>
<li><strong>Pneumococcal pneumonia</strong>: Pneumococcal vaccination is recommended for adults age 19-49 with certain chronic health conditions or risk factors and all adults age 50 and older.</li>
</ul>
<div class="lb-trans"><ul>
<li><strong>流感（flu）：</strong> 建议所有 6 个月及以上的人每年接种流感疫苗，理想情况下在 9 月/10 月进行，尽管疫苗接种可以在整个季节继续进行，因为流感病毒会传播。</li>

</div><p>Pregnant women and individuals who are immunocompromised often have additional vaccination recommendations and should consult their healthcare provider to be sure they are up to date on their recommended vaccinations.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>孕妇和免疫系统受损的个体通常有额外的疫苗接种建议，应咨询其医疗提供者，以确保他们的疫苗接种是最新的。</p>
</div><p>Often, multiple vaccines can be administered in a single healthcare provider visit; ask your healthcare provider about what vaccines are recommended for you.
