艾滋病亲善大使.docVIP

Excellencies, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, 各位阁下、尊敬的各位来宾、女士们先生们： As you have just heard from Dr Nakatani, WHO has clear strategies and policies, and high ambitions in its work to combat the co-epidemics of tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS. 正如刚才大家聆听到的中谷广贵博士的发言，世卫组织在与结核病和艾滋病毒/艾滋病合并流行的斗争中具有明确的战略和政策，也有雄心壮志。 These are killer diseases, together claiming more than 3.5 million lives each year, mainly in the developing world. They cause immense suffering, place a heavy burden on health care services, and carry enormous consequences for societies and economies. 二者都属于致命性疾病，加在一起每年使350多万人失去生命，这主要发生在发展中世界国家。这两种疾病会给人带来极大的痛苦，使卫生保健服务背上深重的负担，并且会造成巨大的社会和经济后果。 Unfortunately, these two diseases work very well together in a ferocious synergy, each one amplifying the consequences of the other. 不幸的是，这两种疾病十分融洽地结合在一起，产生了极大的协同作用，每种疾病都使另外一种疾病带来的后果得以扩大。 But we have made enormous progress against both diseases in just the past decade.
