2026年1月底,英格兰的诺罗病毒住院病例创下历史新高, Norovirus hospitalizations in England hit a record high in late January 2026, straining the NHS.

英格兰的诺罗病毒医院住院人数在2026年1月底达到创纪录的冬季高峰,每天平均有950名病人,比前一周增加15%,超过去年的水平,主要影响65岁及以上成年人和5岁以下儿童。 Norovirus hospital admissions in England reached a record winter high in late January 2026, with an average of 950 patients per day—up 15% from the previous week and exceeding last year’s levels—primarily affecting adults 65 and over and children under five. 虽然流感住院率下降至近两个月来的最低点,但由于高床位占用率、超过14 000人推迟出院以及医院持续爆发疫情,国民保健系统仍然承受着持续的压力。 While flu hospitalizations dropped to their lowest point in nearly two months, the NHS remains under sustained pressure due to high bed occupancy, over 14,000 delayed discharges, and ongoing outbreaks in hospitals. 卫生官员强调,用肥皂和水洗手以及使用漂白剂清洁剂对阻止病毒至关重要,因为酒精凝胶是无效的。 Health officials emphasize that handwashing with soap and water and using bleach-based cleaners are essential to stop the virus, as alcohol gels are ineffective. 尽管救护车交接和疫苗接种工作有所改进,但专家警告该系统仍然接近于断路点,强调需要进行更好的长期规划。 Despite improvements in ambulance handovers and vaccination efforts, experts warn the system remains near breaking point, underscoring the need for better long-term planning.
