巴西女医生涉嫌谋杀300名病人 只为腾出病房床位

A doctor accused of killing patients to free up hospital beds could be to blame for more than 300 deaths in Curitiba, Brazil.
在巴西库里提巴市，一名医生因为涉嫌谋杀300多名病人而被逮捕，而她的杀人动机只是为了给医院腾出病床床位。

Virginia Soares de Souza is said to have “played God,” administering fatal doses of a muscle relaxant or cutting off patients’ life support.
这名医生名叫维吉尼亚·索尔斯·德苏扎，她擅自“扮演上帝角色”决定病人的生死，为病人注射致命过量的肌肉松弛剂，或切断病人的生命支持装置。

If confirmed it would mean she would have claimed even more victims than Hyde GP Harold Shipman, who killed at least 215 patients before he hanged himself in 2004.
如果谋杀罪名成立，证实德苏扎的确害死了300多名病人，那她将超过臭名昭著的英国“死亡医生” 哈罗德·希普曼的杀人记录。希普曼杀害了至少215名病人，2004年在监狱自缢身亡。

De Souza, who worked at Hospital Evangelico in Curitiba, south Brazil, was initially accused over the deaths of seven patients.
德苏扎在巴西南部城市库里提巴市的Evangelico 医院工作，最初被捕是因为有指控她造成了7名病人死亡。

But the number soared as checks were made on those who had died in her care over the last seven years.
但随着调查的深入，在过去的七年里由她负责的病人死亡数据不断增加。

Investigator Dr Mario Lobato said: “We are looking at nearly 300 cases. In one a patient asked a nurse for a cup of water, yet by the time she returned he had died.”
负责调查此案的马里奥·罗巴托表示：“我们发现大概有300多例病人受害。” 在一个案例中，病人要求护士给杯水，但等到护士返回时病人已经死了。”
