30年过去了,如果全世界齐心协力,艾滋这一恐怖的病症仍有被消灭的可能。
数据显示 死亡率感染率在下降
自被发现之后,艾滋病已经造成2500万人死亡,另外尚有3400万人感染。艾滋病发现30周年很多人看成是个绝望情况。然而人们抗击艾滋病的战斗比任何预期要好很多。十年之前,人们认为非洲南部几个国家有一半人要死于艾滋。如今,死亡率已经下降。2005年艾滋病致死210万人,然而在2009年(目前可得到的最新数据)死亡人数为180万。大约500万人的生命因为药物治疗而被成功挽救。在33个艾滋病疫情最严重的国家中,新近感染率正从其高峰转而下降了25%或者更多。
更加令人振奋的是,最近的一项研究表明,用来治疗艾滋病的药物将有可能用于阻止艾滋病的传播。如果这项研究得到证实,则药物就可以像疫苗一样防治艾滋病。
科学应用 新药物新发现正发挥作用
如果艾滋病被打败了,这肯定是得益于科学、积极的行动和无私奉献的结合。科学来源于全世界制药公司的努力。一批有效抑制艾滋病毒中关键酶类的药物在1996年几乎同时被生产出来。如果个人或政府有能力支付每年15000美元的费用(刚上市时的价格),这些药物的作用是神奇的。
现在,艾滋病几乎席卷了社会最有生产力的人群:商人、公务员、工程师、教师、医护人员。一些慈善者和政治家在抗艾的斗争中贡献了不小的力量,许多抗击艾滋病计划让不少感染者得到了药物。1600万人中约有660万人得到了药物治疗。虽然药物尚无法根治艾滋病,但人类已向前迈了一大步。
现在科学技术对于抗艾到底能够提供哪些帮助?一些人的免疫系统能够天然地控制艾滋病毒(这表明研究一种疫苗将成为可能),能够让病毒中立的抗体被发现(这可能为生产彻底清除艾滋病毒的药物提供基础)。就目前而言,预防才是更佳的选择。目前已有多种方法来预防人们患艾滋病:劝告人们使用避孕套,减少滥交,这多少会有一定的效果。将来新的希望则是能够将预防和治疗理想的结合起来。
资金问题 新方案或能降低“花销”
现在看来防止传播和治疗同样重要。为防止艾滋病传播,3400万感染者理论上都需要治疗,这意味着更有效的筛查(已经有这样的计划),也意味着很多没有症状的感染者也要自愿接受治疗。贫困和中等收入国家每年花费在艾滋病上的费用为160亿美元,一半“自费”,另一半为国际援助。上周著名医学杂志《柳叶刀》的一份报告建议采取一个精心制定的多种方法结合的方案,认为此举的最大好处就是费用没这么高——2015年达到220亿美元这个峰值,随后不断下降。
当务之急是阻止一些富国减少捐助。荷兰和西班牙正打算削减对全球基金的捐献,两国都是救命药物的两个主要捐助国,意大利干脆停止了捐助。6月8日,联合国大会期间,40个国家和政府首脑讨论接下来的抗艾滋病工作,我们仍任重而道远,但坚信,人类总有一天可以攻克艾滋病这一难题。
抗艾大事记
1981年6月5日 美国疾病控制与预防中心报告了一位男同性恋者身上发现首例罕见的肺炎,后来被定为艾滋病(AIDS,获得性免疫缺陷综合征)。
1982年9月24日 美国疾病控制与预防中心正式确认艾滋病这个名称,并提到四个“确认风险因素”:男性同性恋、静脉注射毒品、来源海地和血友病A。
1984年 美国人罗伯特·盖洛确定人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)是艾滋病的病因。
1985年8月1日 13岁的瑞恩·怀特在感染艾滋病之后被禁止上学。他开始公开演说反对艾滋病歧视。1990年去世。
1988年12月1日 世界卫生组织将12月1日定为世界艾滋病日。
1991年 红丝带在托尼奖颁奖典礼上被确定为国际艾滋病认识标志。
1991年11月7日 NBA球星魔术师约翰逊宣布自己HIV阳性,退出篮坛。
1993年 克林顿签署排除HIV移民法案。
1994年12月23日 美国食品及药物管理局批准首个HIV抗体测试。
1997年 美国艾滋病相关的死亡人数较前一年下降4%,这主要归功于抗逆转录病毒疗法的使用。
2011年5月13日 抗HIV药物被证明防止病毒传播非常有效。一位联合国专家称,“防治艾滋病可能成为一种现实。”

30 years later, if the world together, the terror of HIV disease may still be eliminated.
Data show that mortality decline in infection rates
After the discovery of self, AIDS has caused 25 million deaths, and there are still 34 million people infected. 30th anniversary of AIDS found that as many people is a desperate situation. However, it was the battle against AIDS is much better than anyone expected. Ten years ago it was thought that a few countries in southern Africa, half of them to die of AIDS. Today, the mortality rate has declined. In 2005 AIDS killed 2.1 million people, but in 2009 (latest data available at present), 1.8 million deaths. Approximately 500 million lives because of drug treatment was successfully saved. AIDS epidemic in the 33 worst countries, infection rates are recently turned down from its peak of 25% or more.
Even more exciting is that recent studies have shown that drugs used to treat HIV will likely be used to prevent the spread of AIDS. If the study is confirmed, then the drugs can be the same as the vaccine against AIDS.
Application of new scientific discoveries is the role of drug
If AIDS was defeated, and this is certainly due to science, a positive combination of action and selfless devotion. Science from the efforts of pharmaceutical companies around the world. Effective inhibition of HIV in a number of key enzymes of the drug in 1996, was produced almost the same time. If an individual or government has the ability to cover the annual cost of $ 15,000 (just listing the price), the role of these drugs is amazing.
Now, AIDS is almost swept the society's most productive people: businessmen, civil servants, engineers, teachers, health care workers. Some charities and politicians in the fight against AIDS has contributed no small force, and many plan to fight AIDS, many infected people to get the drug. 16 million people, about 6.6 million people received drug treatment. Although the drugs still can not cure AIDS, but humans have been a major step forward.
Now science and technology for anti-AIDS in the end be able to provide what help? Some people's natural immune system to control HIV (this study shows that a vaccine will be possible), allowing the virus neutral antibodies were found (this may be the elimination of production provide the basis of HIV drugs). For now, prevention is the better choice. Currently there are several ways to prevent people suffering from AIDS: advise people to use condoms to reduce promiscuity, this number will have a certain effect. New hope for the future is the ability to prevent and treat an ideal combination.
Funding new programs or to reduce "expenses."
Now it seems equally important to prevent the spread and treatment. To prevent the spread of AIDS, 34 million infected people in theory are in need of treatment, which means more efficient screening (already have such plans), but also means that many of those infected have no symptoms receiving treatment voluntarily. Poor and middle-income countries spend each year on the cost of AIDS $ 16 billion, half of the "privately" and the other half of international assistance. Last week, the famous medical journal "Lancet" report recommended a combination of a variety of methods well-developed program, the biggest advantage is that the cost would not be so high - $ 22 billion by 2015, this peak, then declining.
Priority is to prevent some of the rich countries reduced their contributions. Netherlands and Spain are planning to reduce contributions to the Global Fund, are both life-saving drugs, two major donors, the Italian simply stop the contributions. June 8, United Nations General Assembly, 40 heads of state and government to discuss the next anti-AIDS work, we still long way to go, but firmly believe that human beings may one day overcome this problem of AIDS.
