世界艾滋病大会随笔:经济重压下的防治效率口号

新华网维也纳7月19日电(记者张伟 王江)19日,世界艾滋病大会进入第二天。美国前总统比尔·克林顿、微软公司创始人比尔·盖茨等名人纷纷登台演讲,与之伴随的名人效应为大会平添许多人气。两位“比尔”的演讲都被安排在能容纳数千人的会议厅,会场座无虚席。有趣的是,虽然两人演讲的时间和内容角度不尽相同,但都提到一个关键词,那就是“效率”。
两个重量级人物在世界艾滋病大会上高呼提高效率的口号,自然与当前的金融危机有关。联合国艾滋病规划署的报告显示,去年全球防治艾滋病共需236亿美元,但有77亿美元的资金缺口。美国一些艾滋病基金会则预测,今年全球防治艾滋病共需250亿美元,而资金缺口为113亿美元。全球艾滋病防治资金本来就不充裕,金融危机无疑使这种资金短缺雪上加霜,让许多艾滋病防治组织和人士忧心忡忡。
克林顿在发言中说,面对金融危机给艾滋病防治带来的负面影响,艾滋病防治组织应从自身做起,提高效率,避免浪费,“我们今天每浪费一元钱,一个生命就面临危险”。 盖茨在发言中也呼吁人们让“每一元钱都发挥最大作用”。在艾滋病预防上,他提出要大规模采用一些低廉和有效的技术,包括包皮环切手术。在艾滋病治疗上,他提出要降低治疗费用,让更多艾滋病病毒感染者能接受治疗。
其实,在世界艾滋病大会上,不止是这两个名人喊出了提高效率的口号,“效率”一词也频频出现在其他与会者的发言中。18日,联合国艾滋病规划署和国际艾滋病学会联合主办了关于艾滋病“2.0治疗方案”的讨论会。“2.0治疗方案”是联合国艾滋病规划署提出的综合治疗和预防艾滋病的新方法。这一方案的核心内容是降低费用,简化治疗过程,节省经费,使受益感染者的数量最大化。媒体普遍认为,“2.0治疗方案”除了基于科技方面的原因,也是联合国艾滋病规划署面对当前世界经济形势不佳,所做出的一种调整,最终仍是为提高艾滋病防治效率。
当今社会,经济问题影响到生活的方方面面,一场金融风暴不仅导致很多金融机构难以招架,而且殃及全球防治艾滋病领域。但细细一想,面对金融危机的冲击,各国政府和艾滋病防治组织做出一些合理调整与改变,未尝不是一件好事。正如盖茨在发言中所说的那样,目前的资金其实远不能让每一个艾滋病病毒感染者接受治疗,如果在金融危机面前不改变原有行事方式,那么这一差距会越来越大,让更多艾滋病病毒感染者接受治疗的愿望成为泡影。

World AIDS Conference Essay: prevention and treatment efficiency of the economy under the weight of the slogan
Source: Xinhua at 09:40 on the July 20, 2010
Xinhua Vienna, July 19 (Xinhua Zhang Wei Wang Jiang) 19, the second day of the World AIDS Conference. Former U.S. President Bill Clinton, Microsoft founder Bill Gates on stage and other celebrities have speech with the celebrity with the General Assembly added a lot of popularity. The two "Bill" speech have been arranged to accommodate the thousands of meeting rooms, the venue was fully packed. Interestingly, although both the timing and content of speech point of view different, mentioned a key word, that is "efficient."
Two heavyweights in the world AIDS conference shouting slogans efficiency, nature and the current financial crisis. UNAIDS reports that last year the global fight against AIDS would require a total 23.6 billion U.S. dollars, but 77 billion funding gap. Some AIDS Foundation, the U.S. is forecast this year's global AIDS require a total of 25 billion U.S. dollars, while the funding gap of 11.3 billion. Global AIDS funding should not have abundant financial crisis, the shortage of funds will undoubtedly make this worse, so many organizations and people worried about AIDS.
Clinton said in his speech, the face of financial crisis to the negative impact of AIDS, AIDS organizations should come from, improve efficiency, avoid waste, "we wasted a dollar each, a life is at risk." In his speech, Gates also called on people to "have played the biggest role in every dollar." In AIDS prevention, he proposed large-scale adoption of some inexpensive and effective technologies, including circumcision. In AIDS treatment, he proposed to reduce the cost of treatment, so that more HIV-infected persons to treatment.
In fact, the World AIDS Conference, not only the two celebrities to raise the efficiency of the slogans shouted, "efficiency" is also frequently appear in the statements of other participants. 18, UNAIDS and the International AIDS Association, and on AIDS "2.0 treatment," the discussion. "2.0 treatment" is a UNAIDS proposed comprehensive treatment and prevention of AIDS, a new method. The core of this program is to reduce costs, simplify the treatment process, save money, to benefit from maximizing the number of infected persons. Media generally agreed that, "2.0 treatment" in addition to technology-based reasons, is also UNAIDS poor economic situation facing the world today, made an adjustment in the end it is to improve the efficiency of AIDS prevention and control.
Today's social and economic issues affecting every aspect of life, not only led to a financial crisis overwhelmed many financial institutions, but also bring disaster to the global fight against AIDS. But the thin one to the face of financial crisis, Governments and AIDS organizations to make some reasonable adjustments and changes, perhaps a good thing. As Gates said in the statement as fact, far from the current of Zijin make every HIV 感染 to receive Zhi Liao, if the financial Wei Ji, without changing the practice before, then this gap will become large, so that More HIV-infected persons receiving treatment wishes dashed.
