最近的一项《科学进步》研究表明,在墨西哥,35岁以下的年轻成年人比年长者更有可能死于热暴露,这挑战了老年人面临最大风险的信念。 A recent study in Science Advances reveals that in Mexico, young adults under 35 are more likely to die from heat exposure than older individuals, challenging the belief that the elderly are most at risk. 研究人员对1998年至2019年的数据进行分析后发现,在50岁以上的人中,每死亡一次,就有35岁以下的人死于近32起与热有关的死亡。 Analyzing data from 1998 to 2019, researchers found that nearly 32 heat-related deaths occurred in people under 35 for every death among those over 50. 研究显示,随着气候变化,这一趋势可能会恶化,突出表明需要采取有针对性的措施保护较年轻的年龄组。 The study suggests this trend may worsen with climate change, highlighting the need for targeted measures to protect younger age groups.
