I have been asked to stand back and describe in broad terms the view I have had of common colds--probably the most frequent of acute human diseases and a long-lasting scientific problem--and in particular our recent work on antivirals. I should be able to do this for two reasons. Like everyone else I have suffered from colds, but in addition I have been studying the problem from the virological and clinical point of view for over 35 years--for the last 31 at the Common Cold Unit, Salisbury. As a result I may have problems with perspective--it is not possible to give a personal view and at the same time to describe something from every possible angle, and quite impossible to be comprehensive, but I have done my best and readers will make their own judgements and corrections.
我受邀退后一步,大致描述一下我对普通感冒的看法——普通感冒可能是人类最常见的急性疾病,也是一个长期存在的科学问题——特别是我们最近在抗病毒药物方面的研究工作。我能够做到这一点有两个原因。和其他人一样,我也患过感冒,但除此之外,我从病毒学和临床角度研究这个问题已经超过35年了——在过去的31年里,我一直在索尔兹伯里的普通感冒研究中心工作。因此,我可能在视角上存在问题——不可能既给出个人观点,又从每个可能的角度描述某件事,更不可能做到全面,但我已尽我所能,读者将自行做出判断并进行修正。
