In many aspects, an Antarctic Station provides parallels to the environments encountered in space exploration, particularly with reference to infectious disease. In both instances, small groups of people live in isolation for long periods of time in a functionally sterile atmosphere. Therefore, studies of infectious disease in Antarctica should provide important insights into the experiences to be expected in spaceflight. This paper presents a summary of the information on the infectious and immunologic aspects of isolation derived over the years from research in Antarctica.
在许多方面,南极科考站与太空探索中遇到的环境有相似之处,特别是在传染病方面。在这两种情况下,一小群人长时间生活在功能无菌的环境中。因此,对南极洲传染病的研究应该能为太空飞行中的预期情况提供重要见解。本文总结了多年来从南极洲研究中获得的关于隔离的传染病学和免疫学方面的信息。
