【是真是假】吃鸡肉到底会不会感染禽流感？

原标题：【是真是假】吃鸡肉到底会不会感染禽流感？

食用禽肉和蛋类制品安全吗？

当然安全，如果肉/蛋是经过妥善处理和烹饪的！

▼

流感病毒不会通过食用煮熟的食物传播。因为流感病毒在正常的烹饪温度下会灭活（禽肉全部达到摄氏70度，即“滚烫”，肉的任何部分不能是淡红色的），食用经过妥善制备和烹调的肉是安全的，包括家禽和猎禽在内。蛋在食用前应烹饪至全熟。

在发生疫情地区，肉制品在妥善烹调和处理的前提下，可以放心食用。食用生肉和以生血为主的菜肴存在较高风险，应以避免。

切记！患病动物或病死动物的肉不应被食用。

为了保证你安全、妥善地处理肉及其制品，这有些小贴士供参考：

• 生肉与熟食或即食食品应分开以避免污染。对生肉和其它食物不使用同一块案板或同一把刀。拿生熟食物之间要洗手，不将熟食放还煮熟前所放的同一个盘子或表面。

• 在不加热处理或烹煮的食物制品中不使用生蛋或水煮嫩蛋。在处理完生肉之后，用肥皂和水彻底洗手。清洗和消毒所有接触过生肉的表面和器具。

那究竟什么是禽流感感染的危险因素呢？

对于禽流感病毒，人类感染的首要危险因素似乎是直接或间接暴露于受感染活禽或病死禽类或污染环境中，例如活禽市场。屠宰受感染禽类、拔毛和处理尸体及制备供食用的禽类，尤其是在家庭环境中，也很有可能成为危险因素。

但是，没有证据显示甲型H7N9或其它禽流感病毒能够通过妥善处理和烹饪的禽类或蛋类传播给人类。

所以，用我们的方法处理鸡肉，然后就放心地大口吃起来吧！

What Do You Need to Know About Eating Chicken and H7N9?

Is it safe to eat meat for example poultry and egg products? The simple answer is YES if you have it properly cooked well.

Influenza viruses are not transmitted through consuming well-cooked food. Because influenza viruses are inactivated by normal temperatures used for cooking (so that food reaches 70°C in all parts -"piping" hot - no "pink" parts) it is safe to eat properly prepared and cooked meat including from poultry and game birds. Eggs should be thoroughly cooked through with no soft or “runny” parts.

In areas experiencing outbreaks meat products can be safely consumed provided that these items are properly cooked and properly handled during food preparation. The consumption of raw meat and uncooked blood-based dishes is a high-risk practice and should be discouraged.

You should always remember that diseased animals or animals that have died of diseases should not be eaten.

To make sure you are preparing your meat safely here are some tips:

• Always keep raw meat separate from cooked or ready-to-eat foods to avoid contamination. Do not use the same chopping board or the same knife for raw meat and other foods. Do not handle both raw and cooked foods without washing your hands in between and do not place cooked meat back on the same plate or surface it was on before cooking.

• Do not use raw or soft-boiled eggs in food preparations that will not be heat treated or cooked. After handling raw meat wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water. Wash and disinfect all surfaces and utensils that have been in contact with raw meat.

What are the real risk factors?

For avian influenza viruses the primary risk factor for human infection appears to be direct or indirect exposure to infected live or dead poultry or contaminated environments such as live bird markets. Slaughtering defeathering handling carcasses of infected poultry and preparing poultry for consumption especially in household settings are also likely to be risk factors.

But there is no evidence to suggestthat the A(H7N9) can be transmitted to humans through properly prepared and fully-cooked poultry or eggs.

So cook your chicken with our tips and eat them with your favor!
