Getting Immunizations Required by Schools
按照學(xué)校要求接種疫苗
Jonas: Hi, Jenny. Are you getting your kids ready for school, too?
喬納斯:你好!珍妮!你的孩子也準(zhǔn)備好去學(xué)校了嗎?
Jenny: Yes, as you can see, we’re buying lots of school supplies.
珍妮：準(zhǔn)備好了。正如你所看到的，我們買(mǎi)了很多的學(xué)習(xí)用品。
Jonas: Did you get the school letter reminding parents to submit proof of immunization before the first day of school? I know that your youngest is starting school this year.
喬納斯：你收到提醒家長(zhǎng)們，在第一天開(kāi)學(xué)前提交免疫證明的通知信了嗎?我知道今年你家最小的孩子開(kāi)始上學(xué)。
Jenny: Yes, she is, but I’m thinking of getting an exemption. I’m not sure vaccines are safe and I don’t want to take a chance with her health.
珍妮：對(duì)，但是我再考慮不接種疫苗。我不敢確定疫苗是否安全，我不想拿孩子的健康冒險(xiǎn)。
Jonas: The immunizations required by the school are standard – measles, mumps, chicken pox, polio – all vaccines your other children have had.
喬納斯：學(xué)校要求孩子們接種的免疫疫苗是正規(guī)的——麻疹、流行性腮腺炎、水痘———所有的這些疫苗其他孩子已經(jīng)接種過(guò)了。
Jenny: But when I looked at the list, there were a few I didn’t recognize – diphtheria, hepatitis, and rubella. Who knows what our kids are getting!
珍妮：但是，但是通知單上很多疫苗我并不認(rèn)識(shí)——白喉、肝炎、風(fēng)疹。我們不知道孩子們注射的這些是什么啊!
Jonas: The ones you mentioned are standard, too. Don’t you remember the outbreak of whooping cough last year? If our kids had been immunized, they wouldn’t have gotten sick.
喬納斯：您剛剛提到的這些疫苗也是符合規(guī)范的。您難道不記得去年肆虐的百日咳了嗎?如果當(dāng)時(shí)我們的孩子接種了疫苗，就不會(huì)生病了。
Jenny: I’ve read somewhere that vaccines might be dangerous. I just don’t want to jeopardize their future.
珍妮：我聽(tīng)說(shuō)疫苗可能是危險(xiǎn)的。我只是不想影響他們的未來(lái)。
Jonas: That’s precisely what you’d be doing if you opted out of immunizations.
喬納斯：但是如果您選擇讓他們不接種疫苗的話(huà)，就是在危害他們的未來(lái)。
Jenny: Why’s that?
珍妮：為什么呢?
Jonas: Because your children won’t be getting an education. The school is barring any children who don’t get immunized from attending school.
喬納斯：因?yàn)槟暮⒆泳筒粫?huì)接受教育了。這所學(xué)校禁止沒(méi)有接種疫苗的孩子上學(xué)。
Jenny: I call that irresponsible!
珍妮：太不負(fù)責(zé)任了!
