　　The department said it was the first-ever known case of recipients being exposed to the risk of contracting AIDS because of organ transplants.

　　台湾卫生部门称正在调查一起“重大医疗事故”，该事故中五名患者接受了艾滋感染者的器官捐献。

　　周日卫生部门的发言人王瑞周(音译)告诉法新社，五个移植手术中的四个于周四在台湾大学医院进行的，“台湾大学医院被要求在周二结束之前拿出一份详细的报告。”

　　【讲解】

　　文中的“critical medical negligence”就是指“重大医疗事故”，“negligence”是指“疏忽”，在法律中指“过失”，如：ordinary negligence 一般过失。“organ transplant”是指“器官移植”。“HIV-positive”是指HIV呈阳性，如果呈阴性，是HIV-negative。
