联合国召开艾滋病问题高级别会议

The UN General Assembly has commenced a high level meeting on HIV/AIDS. The event promises to chart a new course for developing treatments against the deadly disease.
联合国大会召开了艾滋病问题高级别会议。此次会议承诺制定开发这种致命疾病治疗方法的新规划。

According to the latest figures issued by UNAIDS, more than 34 million people worldwide have the HIV virus that causes AIDS. Throughout the three-day meeting, world leaders will address the assembly and adopt a resolution to commit to "Getting to Zero", a 2015 target initiated by UNAIDS. Countries will commit to working aggressively to curb the spread of the virus and to providing treatment to as many of those affected as possible, over the next four years.
根据联合国艾滋病规划署（UNAIDS）发布的最新数据，全世界有超过3400万人感染上引起艾滋病的HIV病毒。三天的会议中，全球领导人将在大会上发表讲话，通过UNAIDS提出的致力于在2015年前“艾滋病为零”的目标的决议。各国将在未来4年致力于积极控制病毒的传播，尽可能为受感染人群提供治疗。

Michel Sidibe, Executive Director of Joint United Nations Program on HIV/AIDS, said, "It is not a question of paying now or paying later. Either we pay now, or we pay forever. Getting to zero also demands that we unleash the power of innovation. We can sustain our investment in research and development and we will have in five years time, simple and inexpensive diagnostics and medication that can be available to everyone, everywhere."
联合国艾滋病规划署执行主任米歇尔．西迪贝说：“这不是现在或未来有益的问题。或者现在对我们有利，或者未来对我们永远有利。艾滋病为零也要求我们发挥创新的力量。我们可以维持对研究和发展的投资，而且在未来5年，我们将使简单廉价的诊断和药物对所有地区的所有人都可用。”
