Tribute to Dr. Carlo Urbani, Identifier of SARS
(1) On the 29th of March, 2003, the World Health Organization doctor Carlo Urbani died of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, the fast-spreading pneumonia that had killed 54 people worldwide.
(2) The 46-year-old Italian doctor was the first WHO officer to identify the outbreak of this new disease in an American businessman. Dr. Urbani first saw the US businessman on Feb. 28, two days after the patient had been admitted to a hospital in Hanoi. Although Urbani had worn a mask, he lacked goggles and other protective clothing. He began demanding that Hanoi hospitals stock up on protective gear and tighten up infection control procedures. But he was frustrated at how long it was taking to teach infection-control procedures to people in hospitals. There were shortages of supplies, like disposable masks, gowns, gloves.
(3) After three weeks of round-the-clock effort, Urbani’s superior urged him to take a few days off to attend a medical meeting in Bangkok, where he was to talk on childhood parasites. The day after he arrived, he began feeling ill - with symptoms of the new disease. He called his wife, now living in Hanoi with their three children. He said: "Go back to Italy and take the children, because this will be the end for me." Dr. Urbani developed a fever and was put into isolation where he remained until his death. The WHO representative in Hanoi said: "He was very much a doctor, his first goal was to help people."
(4) He was buried on April 2, 2003 in Castelplanio, central Italy, leaving behind his wife and children. The measures he helped put in place before his death appear to have doused the SARS wildfire in Vietnam.
Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?
选项
A、Dr. Urbani caught SARS from an American businessman who was hospitalized in Hanoi.
B、There were not enough disposable masks, gowns, gloves and protective equipment.
C、He knew he had little hope to survive after he was found infected.
D、Dr. Urbani had helped combating the new disease by putting in place a series of infection-control measures.
答案
D
解析
从第二段可得出,Dr.Urbani在给那名美国商人治病的时候,虽然戴了面罩,但没有目镜,和其他的隔离服装,这也就暗含着他是被这名美国商人感染的,因此A项是正确的。文章末尾的那句话只能说明他帮忙采取了一些措施,但具体是什么措施并没有点明,因此错误的应该是D。
