该项目为期五年,主要在中国的云南、广西等边境地区展开,内容包括警察的培训、同伴教育,以及安全注射器的交换等。“我们希望通过这几方面的工作,有效降低吸毒人群因为共用不洁针具所导致的艾滋病流行和传播。” 中澳卫生与艾滋病项目的项目经理董胜利(Victor Dong,Facility Manager China-Australia Health and HIV/AIDS Facility)说。
除此之外,澳大利亚与中国还与老挝、缅甸、泰国等其他五国政府共同在湄公河流域开展艾滋病防控合作,共同遏制因为吸毒行为所导致的艾滋病传播。
董胜利说,金三角地区吸毒人数较多,因吸毒导致的艾滋病患者人数也因此较多。在湄公河领域进行合作,有特别的背景。“更重要的是,这一地区国家间的跨边境活动贸易活动频繁,因此,在这一地区开展艾滋病控制具有特别的意义。”
他表示,传染病的防控没有国界,因此,通过跨国界合作的方式共同探索如何更好地控制艾滋病,具有积极意义。(完)
