隔离英语为什么是quarantine:在家里进行的14天“隔离”,在英语中一般称为quarantine。
quarantine这个单词源自quarantena,中文意思就是“40天”,而这个用法还要从欧洲的一场瘟疫说起。
在14世纪中期,黑死病(The Black Death)在欧洲爆发蔓延,致死率极高,席卷了欧洲近三分之一的人口。
于是后来,威尼斯决定实施一些防疫措施,即强制要求所有来自疫区的船只必须在港口外停泊40天才能靠岸。
而这段隔离期在意大利语中就称作quarantena giorni(space of forty days)。
后来,人们就用period of quarantine表示“隔离期”的意思,而quarantine也就成了“隔离”的意思。
词典中的定义是:A period of time when an animal or a person that has or may have a disease is kept away from others in order to prevent the disease from spreading
对人员或动物,在一定时期内,禁止其与其它人员或动物接触,目的是为了防止疾病的传染扩散。
