Secretary-General’s Message on World AIDS Day
秘書(shū)長(zhǎng)世界艾滋病日致辭
1 December 2013
2013年12月1日
On this World AIDS Day, I am more optimistic than ever. Much of the world is accelerating progress in responding to HIV. There are significant decreases in new infections and deaths, and we are making good progress in realizing our
target of ensuring 15 million people have access to
antiretroviral treatment by 2015. This is crucial to halting and reversing the AIDS epidemic for good.
值此世界艾滋病日,我比以往任何時(shí)候都更為樂(lè)觀。世界很多地區(qū)都加快了應(yīng)對(duì)艾滋病毒工作的進(jìn)展速度。新感染人數(shù)和死亡人數(shù)大幅下降,我們還在實(shí)現(xiàn)確保到2015年有1 500萬(wàn)人可得到抗逆轉(zhuǎn)錄病毒治療這一目標(biāo)方面取得良好進(jìn)展。這對(duì)永遠(yuǎn)制止和扭轉(zhuǎn)艾滋病流行至關(guān)重要。
But, as revealed in the UNAIDS World AIDS Day Report for 2013, there are still worrying signals that some regions and countries are falling behind. We are making advances in reaching vulnerable populations through efforts to eliminate stigma and
discrimination, but there is still much to do to end this problem. We must recommit to breaking the remaining barriers, including punitive laws and social exclusion, so we can reach all people who lack access to HIV treatment and services.
但是,正如艾滋病署2013年世界艾滋病日?qǐng)?bào)告所揭示的那樣,仍然有一些令人擔(dān)憂的跡象表明,一些地區(qū)和國(guó)家落在了后面。通過(guò)努力消除污名化與歧視,我們?cè)诖嗳跞巳悍乐喂ぷ鞣矫嬲谌〉眠M(jìn)展,但為了制止這個(gè)問(wèn)題,仍有大量工作要做。我們必須重新致力于打破其余障礙,包括懲罰性法律和社會(huì)排斥,以便使我們可以使所有無(wú)法獲得艾滋病毒治療和服務(wù)的人都能獲益。
To create conditions for an AIDS-free generation, we must also step up efforts to stop new HIV infections among children and ensure access to treatment for all mothers living with HIV. I especially urge action to end the discrimination and
violence against women which cause terrible harm and increase risk of HIV infection and death from AIDS.
為了創(chuàng)造條件使一代人擺脫艾滋病,我們必須加緊努力,制止兒童中的新增艾滋病毒感染,并確保感染艾滋病毒的所有母親都可獲得治療。我特別敦促各方采取行動(dòng),終止造成極大傷害且增加艾滋病毒感染和艾滋病死亡風(fēng)險(xiǎn)的歧視和暴力侵害婦女行為。
I commend all partners that are making significant contributions to the Global Fund to fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, which is one of the most important sources of funding for the global response. Major economies are leading by example, ensuring sustained resources for the response to AIDS and other diseases. Many low- and middle-income countries have also significantly increased domestic
expenditure on AIDS responses. All deserve our full support as they explore financing options to promote long-term sustainability of the response to AIDS beyond 2015.
我向?yàn)槿蚍乐喂ぷ髯钪匾Y金來(lái)源之一全球防治艾滋病、結(jié)核病和瘧疾基金提供大量捐助的所有伙伴表示贊揚(yáng)。各大經(jīng)濟(jì)體都率先作出榜樣,確保為防治艾滋病和其他疾病提供持續(xù)資源。許多中低收入國(guó)家也大幅增加了用于防治艾滋病的國(guó)內(nèi)支出。所有這些設(shè)法到2015年后以各種融資辦法促進(jìn)長(zhǎng)期可持續(xù)防治艾滋病的舉措都應(yīng)得到我們的全力支持。
There is still much to do. If we want a future free of AIDS we will need continued investment, commitment and innovation to reach the vision of zero new HIV infections, zero discrimination and zero AIDS-related deaths. On this World AIDS Day, let us resolve to consign AIDS to the pages of history.
還有大量工作要做。我們?nèi)绻⒁粋€(gè)沒(méi)有艾滋病的未來(lái),就必須繼續(xù)進(jìn)行投資,作出承諾和開(kāi)展創(chuàng)新,以實(shí)現(xiàn)零新增艾滋病毒感染、零歧視和零艾滋病相關(guān)死亡的愿景。值此世界艾滋病日,我們要下定決心,讓艾滋病成為歷史。
