UNAIDS issued a stark1 warning Monday that if leaders fail to tackle inequalities the world could face 7.7 million AIDS-related deaths over the next 10 years.
联合国艾滋病规划署11月29日发出严厉警告,如果各国不能解决不平等问题,全球未来10年可能有770万人死于艾滋病。
 
与此同时,联合国儿童基金会一份报告称,
 
At least 300,000 children were newly infected with HIV in 2020, or one child every two minutes.
2020年至少有30万新增儿童艾滋病毒感染者,即每两分钟就有一名儿童感染。
 
Another 120,000 children died from AIDS-related causes during the same period, or one child every five minutes.
同一时期,另有12万儿童死于艾滋病相关疾病,即每五分钟就有一名儿童死亡。
 
联合国艾滋病规划署执行主任温妮·比亚尼马称,这是一项紧急行动呼吁。她表示:
 
"Progress against the AIDS pandemic, which was already off track, is now under even greater strain as the COVID-19 crisis continues to rage, disrupting HIV prevention and treatment services, schooling2, violence-prevention programmes and more. We cannot be forced to choose between ending the AIDS pandemic today and preparing for the pandemics of tomorrow. The only successful approach will achieve both. As of now, we are not on track to achieve either."
“随着新冠疫情持续肆虐,原本已经偏离轨道的抗艾进展现在面临着更大的压力,扰乱了艾滋病防治服务、教育、暴力预防计划等。我们不能被迫在今天消除艾滋病和预防明天的流行病之间做选择。同时实现这两个目标才是唯一成功的方法。到目前为止,这两件事我们都没有做好。”
 
Some countries, including some with the highest rates of HIV, have made remarkable3 progress against AIDS, illustrating4 what is feasible. However, new HIV infections are not falling fast enough globally to stop the pandemic, with 1.5 million new HIV infections in 2020 and growing HIV infection rates in some countries. Infections are also following lines of inequality. Six in seven new HIV infections among adolescents in sub-Saharan Africa are occurring among adolescent girls. Gay men and other men who have sex with men, se The pace of HIV testing declined almost uniformly and fewer people living with HIV initiated5 treatment in 2020 in 40 of 50 countries reporting to UNAIDS. HIV prevention services have been impacted—in 2020, harm reduction services for people who use drugs were disrupted in 65% of 130 countries surveyed.
新冠肺炎削弱了许多地方对艾滋病的反应。在50个向联合国艾滋病规划署报告的国家中,有40个国家的艾滋病毒检测速度几乎同时出现下降,2020年新增接受治疗的艾滋病毒感染者减少。艾滋病毒预防服务在2020年受到影响,在接受调查的130个国家中,65%的国家为吸毒者提供的减少伤害服务中断。
 
"It is still possible to end the epidemic6 by 2030," affirmed United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres in his World AIDS Day message. "But that will require stepped up action and greater solidarity7. To beat AIDS—and build resilience against the pandemics of tomorrow—we need collective action."
合国秘书长安东尼奥·古特雷斯在世界艾滋病日致辞中表示:“在2030年前消除艾滋病疫情仍然是有可能的。为需要加大行动力度、加强团结。为了战胜艾滋病并建立抵御未来流行病的能力,我们需要集体行动。”
his year marks 40 years since the first cases of AIDS were reported. Since that time, there has been huge progress, particularly in expanding access to treatment. By June 2021, 28.2 million people had access to HIV treatment, up from 7.8 million in 2010, although progress has slowed considerably8.
今年是首次报告艾滋病病例40周年。自那时以来,艾滋病防治取得了巨大进展,特别是在扩大治疗机会方面。截至2021年6月,获得治疗的艾滋病感染者从2010年的780万人增加至2820万人,但进展已明显放缓。
