Abstract
We investigated an outbreak of headache, eye irritation, sore throat, nasal congestion, and nausea in an office complex, ongoing for three months and regularly resolved upon leaving the building. Investigation suggested that the etiology of the illness was malfunctioning fluorescent light ballasts , which overheated and resulted in melting and volatilization of contained asphalt . Correction of the problem resulted in almost complete disappearance of symptoms within two weeks.
摘要
我们调查了一座办公大楼内持续三个月的头痛、眼睛刺激、喉咙痛、鼻塞和恶心的疫情，离开大楼后这些症状会定期缓解。调查表明，病因是荧光灯镇流器故障，其过热导致所含沥青熔化和挥发。问题得到纠正后，症状在两周内几乎完全消失。
