初二英语日记艾滋病英语作文:fight against AIDS_3000字As I just witnesd during my recent visit here, China has made substantial progress in checking the spread of HIV but there is still a long way to go. From an infection unknown only 27 years ago, AIDS has become truly globalized. Today, 33 million people live with HIV around the globe, and 25 million more have died. The figures are sobering. However, it is important to note that we have entered a new pha in responding to AIDS - a pha that will ultimately be far more challenging than anything we have done so far. Now, for the first time, the AIDS respon is producing real results. In 2007, fewer people got newly infected and the number of people dying of AIDS worldwide dropped, mainly thanks to better access to antiretroviral treatment. I n China, over 34,000 people are now taking HIV drugs, up from 5,000 in 2003. But, we cannot slow down in our vigilance. Whereas substantial progress has been achieved in this country, the number of people receiving HIV drugs is still less than half the number who require them. The epidemic continues to run ahead of the respon: for every two people who start taking antiretroviral drugs, another five become newly infected with HIV. Many of tho infections occur in situations that are illegal or outside of mainstream society. The give ri to apparent contradictions between respect for the law and protecting the health of people who inject drugs or are x workers, between xuality and morality, between needs of public curity and public health, drug control and safe injections. Indeed, to confront AIDS is to confront contradictions in society. On clor investigation, however, most of the c

D rug abu, for example, is bad for an individual ‘s health and for the community he or she lives in. HIV infections are particularly high among people who inject drugs. Laws against drugs must be respected to protect society. Ultimately, though, the best way to protect both the wider population and drug urs, and at the same time reconcile public curity and public health concerns is to adopt the
“harm reduction “ approach. Scientific evidence - including here
in China- shows that providing drug urs with substitution therapy and clean needles reduces HIV transmission and supports enforcement of laws against drug abu. Similarly, working with x workers and their clients to encourage condom u reduces HIV among the groups and in society as a whole. When such programs are backed up by poverty reduction efforts to reduce women ‘s need to engage in prostitution, their impact is even greater. It is issues such as the that make AIDS such a complex problem to deal with. Complex problems require complex solutions. They also respond best to collective approaches. Working with community groups, for example, can greatly increa the impact - and effectiveness - of AIDS strategies. In fact, given that most infections are happening in situations outside the mainstream norm, it is often very difficult for government alone to

Many of the groups are doing incredible work. The Joint Asssment Report published last year by the government together with the United Nations System clearly highlights the need for greater involvement of community-bad organization in the roll-out of programs to reach people with relevant rvices. Currently, there are no easy ways for community-bad organizations to register. Without registration, there can be no bank account and thus no easy way to receive funding. Many of the groups I have en are doing a great job - but their work is bad on volunteerism. This is neither efficient nor sustainable. China has solid policies in place and has made significant progress in the fight against AIDS. It is time now to u the tremendous array of resources at its disposal to build on that progress, and to tackle new, tough challenges like harm reduction and increasing civil society involvement, As Chairman Mao said more than 60 years ago:神州十二
