New research suggests the risk of an HIV-positive person transmitting the disease to an uninfected partner can be reduced drastically if they are given early treatment with anti-retroviral drugs. A large-scale trial of couples across four continents gave a reduction of 96% in cross infections. Professor Ian Sanne is a chief researcher in the trials from the Department of Internal Medicine at the University of Witwatersrand in South Africa.
最新研究显示,如果接受早期的抗逆转录药物治疗,HIV阳性病人将疾病传染给伴侣的风险会大大降低。在四个大洲对夫妇进行的大规模试验表明交叉感染的风险会降低96%。南非金山大学(Witwatersrand University)内科部的Ian Sanne教授是这些实验的一名主要研究人员。
"This, a 96% result, is quite remarkable. Because of the very convincing result, we now need to look at how this result will impact on the international treatment guidelines, and we need to work out how the package of prevention care can be best adopted for different populations."
“降低96%这一结果非常显著。由于该结果极具说服力,现在我们需要看一下这项研究结果会对国际治疗指导方针产生什么样的影响,我们需要制定出如何针对不同的人群采取最佳的预防措施。”
A court in Germany has ordered the release of 91-year-old John Demjanjuk, despite finding him guilty of helping to murder more than 28,000 Jews in Nazi-occupied Poland. The court in Munich sentenced him to five years in prison, but issued the release order on grounds of his age and pending an appeal. The main German prosecutor Hans-Joachim Lutz said Mr Demjanjuk's personal guilt was proven.
德国一法庭下令释放91岁高龄的John Demjanjuk,尽管他犯了在纳粹占领的波兰帮助杀害了28,000多名犹太人的罪行。慕尼黑法庭判处他五年徒刑,但是由于John Demjanjuk年事已高且低头认罪,法庭下令将其释放。德国主要的检控官Hans-Joachim Lutz称,Demjanjuk的个人罪行已得到证实。
"Nearly 70 years after the crime, we have been able to prove the guilt of the accused. The accused was a victim of German aggression as shown by the trial, but he later became a criminal of his own will. He could have withdrawn from his job in the concentration camp in Sobibor, but he didn't do this."
“在犯罪后接近70年里,我们已经能够证明被告有罪。被告最初是德国入侵的受害者,但是后来他自愿成为罪犯。他完全可以辞去索比堡集中营的工作,但是他没有这样做。”

A British inquiry into the invasion of Iraq has released a letter from a former intelligence officer who said he came under strong pressure to find evidence to support military action. The official Michael Laurie said an intelligence dossier in 2002 asserting that Saddam Hussein was developing weapons of mass destruction was intended to make the case for war. His comments directly contradict the testimony of the former British government's director of communications, Alastair Campbell.
英国调查伊拉克战争的工作小组公布了一名前情报官员的信件。他表示自己受到寻找证据来支持军事行动的巨大压力。情报官员Michael Laurie表示,2002年一份断言萨达姆在制造大规模杀伤性武器的情报档案是为了给战争制造借口。他的说法与前英国政府通讯官员Alistair Campbell的证词完全相反。
The founder of the Bangladeshi micro-lending institution the Grameen Bank, Muhammad Yunus, has resigned as its head after a row with the government. More from Anbarasan Ethirajan.
孟加拉国小额信贷机构格莱珉银行(Grameen Bank)创始人穆罕默德.尤努斯(Muhammad Yunus)由于与政府发生争吵而辞职。Anbarasan Ethirajan报道更多内容。
In a short statement, Mr Yunus said he had taken the decision to avoid what he called "undue disruption" to the bank's activities following last week's Supreme Court's ruling. The court upheld the official decision to sack him from the bank saying at 70 he was well past the mandatory retirement age. His supporters say the decision to sack him from the bank is related to his attempt to enter politics three years ago, a charge the government denies. Mr Yunus started the Grameen Bank to offer micro loans to the poor, and the model has been replicated in many countries around the world.
在一份简短的声明中,尤努斯称,在上周最高法庭的裁决之后,他已经决定避免他所谓对银行的互动造成“不恰当的扰乱”。法庭支持官方的决定,将尤努斯革职,因为他已经70岁,远远超过了法定的退休年龄。他的支持者表示,银行将其解雇是因为他三年前曾经试图进入政治领域,政府否认了这种说法。尤努斯开创了格莱珉银行(Grameen Bank)为穷人提供小额贷款,全世界许多国家复制了这种模式。
