On May 15th, 2013, Chicago magazine dining critic Jeff Ruby tweeted the following:
2013年5月15日芝加哥雜志餐廳評論家杰夫盧比在推特上發表了下面的留言：
“When Nietzsche said that which does not kill you makes you stronger, he obviously never had food poisoning from a Lebanese restaurant.”
當哲人尼采殺所言凡不能毀滅我者將使我更加強大之際，他明顯是未曾品嘗過黎巴嫩飯店送來的有毒食物。
Such Twitter messages are now being flagged by the Chicago Department of Public Health to spot food establishments that may be making patrons ill.
諸如這樣的推特留言現在被芝加哥公眾健康部門作為標志檢測會導致客人身體不適的食物。
The tweets elicit a reply from health agency workers linking them to a complaint form that will help identify problematic places.
這樣的推特留言會引起健康部門工作人員的注意并回復，而那些怨聲載道可以使得他們去確認問題所在。
During a 10-month stretch last year, staff members at the health agency responded to 270 tweets about “food poisoning.”
在去年長達10個月的時間里，健康部門的工作人員回復了270條關于食物有毒的留言。
Based on those tweets, 193 complaints were filed and 133 restaurants in the city were inspected.
根據這些留言，193條抱怨被登記在冊，而該市的133家餐廳接受了調查。
Twenty-one were closed down and another 33 were forced to fix health violations.
其中21家被關閉，另外33家被強制改善健康問題。
That's according to a study in the journal Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.
這是根據一篇在《發病率和死亡率周報》雜志上發表的文章所得出的結論。
And study researcher Jenine Harris at the Washington University in St.Louis says that health officials in Boston and New York are also looking to tap Twitter in the future.
而圣路易斯華盛頓大學這項研究的研究人員杰尼路易斯表示波士頓和紐約的健康官員們也正在考慮在不久的將來利用推特。
Many food poisoning victims do not seek treatment, but still complain to their friends, and now their Twitter followers.
許多食物中毒受害者沒有尋求治療，但仍會對親朋好友抱怨一番，而現在推特則成了他們發泄訴苦的平臺。
Such social media surveillance could help put a lid on food-borne disease outbreaks.
而這種社會媒體監督有助于抑制食物引發疾病的大規模爆發。
