一个朋友发了关于一个广东花都区妇女喝罐装饮料身亡的事情，特地到网络上查了一个资料，发现国外也有类似的案例，希望大家也今后喝罐装饮料的时候不要对嘴直接饮用，以免发生意外。

[quote]This incident happened recently in North Texas. A woman went boating one Sunday taking with her some cans of coke which she put into the refrigerator of the boat. On Monday she was taken to the hospital and placed in ICU. She died on Wednesday.

德州北部最近发生了这个事件。有一妇女星期天去划船，她带了些可乐罐头，放在小船的冰箱内。星期一她送进了医院，安置在加护病房。星期三她死了。

The autopsy concluded she died of Leptospirosis. This was traced to the can of coke she drank from without using a glass. Tests showed that the can was infected by dried rat urine and hence the disease Leptospirosis.

验尸结果她死于“细螺旋体病”，追踪到可乐罐头，她没有使用玻璃杯喝。实验证明罐头受到鼠尿感染细螺旋体病毒。

Rat urine contains toxic and deathly substances. It is highly recommended to thoroughly wash the upper part of soda cans before drinking out of them. The cans are typically stocked in warehouses and transported straight to the shops without being cleaned.

鼠尿含有毒性和致命物质。在喝罐装汽水之前，强烈建议汽水罐的上部要清洗干净！因为罐头从仓库运送到商店是没有清洗的。

A study at NYCU showed that the tops of soda cans are more contaminated than public toilets (i.e.) … full of germs and bacteria. So wash them with water before putting them to the mouth to avoid any kind of fatal accident!

NYCU研究显示，汽水罐上面充满毒菌和细菌，比公共厕所还多。因此开罐对嘴喝之前用水洗干净，避免发生任何致命事故。[/quote]
也感谢这位朋友的贴心提示。
