世界艾滋病日各国的态度

世界艾滋病日各国的态度

世界艾滋病日各国的态度世界艾滋病日各国的态度在第一个“世界艾滋病日”,即1988年12月1日这一天,世界各国的政党领袖、精神领袖、医生、摇滚乐歌星、足球运动员和普通男女,纷纷表明了自己的看法。

并且在世界各国都有行动来支持这项伟大的事业。

在罗马,教皇约翰·保罗二世严肃地告诫说,艾滋病不仅损害个别人的躯体,而且损害着整个人类。

他要求把艾滋病患者视作兄弟姐妹,因为他们的不幸需要人们的同情和支持。

在法国,卫生部长埃文宣布,政府把把第二年预防艾滋病的宣传费用增加3倍。

法国总统密特朗的夫人说,同艾滋病作斗争需要“全世界的共同努力”才能奏效。

在伦敦,政府宣布拨出250万英镑(450万美元)用来做广告和在电视上进行宣传。

在丹麦的奥胡斯,市政当局雇用的圣诞老人在街上向孩子们发放糖果,向成年人发放避孕套。

在意大利,当局在罗马举行通宵达旦的晚会,晚会结束时,免费向与会者赠送香槟酒和避孕套。

在澳大利亚,当局向人们展示了一床特大的被子,上面绣着这个国家501名艾滋病患者的名字。

在非洲,南非的卫生部长说,大约有2万南非人是艾滋病病毒携带者。

科特迪瓦的卫生部长劝告国民“在性生活方面要检点”,并宣布拨出专款用于防治艾滋病。

卢旺达当局开设了一个艾滋病信息和咨询中心。

在亚洲,印度尼西亚机场向要飞离雅加达的公民发放小册子,告诫他们到国外要注意艾滋病的危险。

韩国当局则直截了当地告诉人们:“如果你患上艾滋病,这是自己的过错。

”在日内瓦联合国世界卫生组织总部,24小时不停地举办电视、广播、展览、报告、讨论等一系列宣传活动。

总干事中岛宏发表专题讲话,呼吁全人类采取统一行动与艾滋病作斗争。

世界艾滋病日的日期为提高人们对艾滋病的认识,世界卫生组织于1988年1月将每年的12月1日定为世界艾滋病日,号召世界各国和国际组织在这一天举办相关活动,宣传和普及预防艾滋病的知识。

20XX年11月,相关专家表示,自“关艾计划”启动后,已有3000多名基层艾滋病医生接受培训,而20XX年的主题将是倡议治疗与预防同步。

走向无艾滋一代

走向无艾滋一代

在11月初召开的科学家大会上,国务卿希拉里•克林顿说:数年前,打造“无艾滋一代”依然是难以想象的。

正因如此,直到现在,美国政府还没有将预防艾滋病设为优先的政策。

“当今,由于新知识和新型应用方法的出现,我们有机会治活更多的生命,拯救更多人的未来,同时,更重要的是,也将拯救整个下一代。

”国务卿克林顿说,“无艾滋一代”,指的是新出生的小孩身上无艾滋病毒;他们成人以后,因广泛且有效的预防措施,他们感染HIV病毒的机率也很低。

如果他们一旦感染HIV病毒,将会得到治愈并不再得此病,也不会将病毒传染给他人。

国务卿克林顿说:“HIV病毒或许今后还会存在,但由HIV 病毒产生的疾病将会消失。


我们可以通过三个步骤做到这一点:在怀孕和出生时使用药物阻止母婴传播;扩大自愿男性包皮环切术,这是降低艾滋病毒传播率的有效手段;以及加强对艾滋病毒阳性者的药物治疗,证明可以减少血液中的病毒并降低传播风险。

当与避孕套和其他预防工具结合使用时,这三种干预措施为降低全球新感染率提供了历史性的机会。

美国在艾滋病毒/艾滋病的研究和开发方面处于世界领先地位。

通过PEPFAR,美国开展预防项目,为世界上一些最需要的人群提供药物和治疗。

克林顿国务卿在演讲中宣布,将追加6000万美元,用于资助在四个撒哈拉以南非洲国家迅速扩大联合预防战略。

克林顿国务卿说:“当这么多人正在遭受痛苦,而我们有办法帮助他们时,我们有义务尽我们所能。

让我们现在不要停止。

让我们继续关注未来。

我希望我们能够成为实现未来的一部分,那就是实现一个没有艾滋病的一代。

”。

克林顿在清华就艾滋病等问题演讲全文

克林顿在清华就艾滋病等问题演讲全文各位早上好,我今天非常高兴能够参加此次国际研讨会,非常感谢清华大学的校长,各级各位,负责此次会议的教授们。

在此,我感谢清华大学在有关HIV艾滋病毒方面的教育工作,而且我知道此次研讨会非常重要,这是一个标志,它标志出对于中国的未来来说,对抗击艾滋病毒非常重要。

在此,我要感谢何大一,我的同事今天到此,并且致力于抗击艾滋病毒的工作。

在1998年,何大一教授和我都是马萨诸塞州技术方面的一个会议发言人,当时我是主席,他被《时代杂志》定为封面人物。

在发言中,何教授提到要充分利用科学的先进发展,要充分利用政府、学术界,以及社会的力量来使得艾滋病得以遏制。

如果能够最终抗击艾滋病的话,何教授肯定是英雄之一。

在此,我想祝贺戴蒙艾滋病研究中心的诸位同事,要感谢中国医学科学院,中国协和医科大学、清华大学、武汉大学的各位学术界认为,在这儿,我也要说,这些大学非常了不起,举办了此次的峰会研讨会,在座的我也看到有一些学生,因为你们的未来会更多的受到我们今天所强调的内容的影响,就是要抗击艾滋病毒,艾滋病。

在1998年我作为总统到了中国,我知道中美之间的关系在全球的外交方面是极端重要的,我们能够有21世纪的和平和繁荣,并且使得大家在和平的环境中生活是非常重要的。

我认为,当我在总统就任期间,中美之间的合作是非常好的,我们有很多的文化交流,民间也进行了很多合作,中国也加入了WTO。

就安全方面,我们就核不扩散,大规模武器等方面取得了很多共识。

但是我认为,这是我们应该合作的起点,我们有更多的工作要做。

我们的合作是非常重要的,我们现在怎么来描述一个非常大的社会呢?大部分的学生会说全球化,现在的时代是全球化的时代。

他们说的是对的,可是我希望他们要看到另一点,就是相互依赖。

他们全球的贸易系统,全球的财务市场,有超过一万亿的美元跨越边界,流通全球。

我们与全球的关系,不仅仅是在经济领域。

互相依赖也指我们可以互相逃脱各自的命运,无论这个命运是好还是坏,E-mail使我们保持联系,美国、中国的学生可以跨越太平洋,大西洋,这样的跨越几个小时就可以做到。

美国前总统比尔·克林顿在2012年9月5日民主党全国代表大会上的演讲

美国前总统比尔·克林顿在2012年9月5日民主党全国代表大会上的演讲

A transcript of former President Bill Clinton's remarks Wednesday night at the Democratic National Convention, as provided by the Democratic Party:We're here to nominate a president, and I've got one in mind.I want to nominate a man whose own life has known its fair share of adversity and uncertainty. A man who ran for president to change the course of an already weak economy and then just six weeks before the election, saw it suffer the biggest collapse since the Great Depression. A man who stopped the slide into depression and put us on the long road to recovery, knowing all the while that no matter how many jobs were created and saved, there were still millions more waiting, trying to feed their children and keep their hopes alive.I want to nominate a man cool on the outside but burning for America on the inside. A man who believes we can build a new American Dream economy driven by innovation and creativity, education and cooperation. A man who had the good sense to marry Michelle Obama.I want Barack Obama to be the next president of the United States and I proudly nominate him as the standard bearer of the Democratic Party.In Tampa, we heard a lot of talk about how the president and the Democrats don't believe in free enterprise and individual initiative, how we want everyone to be dependent on the government, how bad we are for the economy.The Republican narrative is that all of us who amount to anything are completely self-made. One of our greatest Democratic chairmen, Bob Strauss, used to say that every politician wants you to believe he was born in a log cabin he built himself, but it ain't so.We Democrats think the country works better with a strong middle class, real opportunities for poor people to work their way into it and a relentless focus on the future, with business and government working together to promote growth and broadly shared prosperity. We think "we're all in this together" is a better philosophy than "you're on your own."Who's right? Well, since 1961, the Republicans have held the White House 28 years, the Democrats 24. In those 52 years, our economy produced 66 million private sector jobs. What's the jobs score? Republicans 24 million, Democrats 42 million.It turns out that advancing equal opportunity and economic empowerment is both morally right and good economics, because discrimination, poverty and ignorance restrict growth, while investments in education, infrastructure and scientific and technological research increase it, creating more good jobs and new wealth for all of us.Though I often disagree with Republicans, I never learned to hate them the way the far right that now controls their party seems to hate President Obama and the Democrats. After all, PresidentEisenhower sent federal troops to my home state to integrate Little Rock Central High and built the interstate highway system. And as governor, I worked with President Reagan on welfare reform and with President George H.W. Bush on national education goals. I am grateful to President George W. Bush for PEPFAR, which is saving the lives of millions of people in poor countries and to both Presidents Bush for the work we've done together after the South Asia tsunami, Hurricane Katrina and the Haitian earthquake.Through my foundation, in America and around the world, I work with Democrats, Republicans and Independents who are focused on solving problems and seizing opportunities, not fighting each other.When times are tough, constant conflict may be good politics but in the real world, cooperation works better. After all, nobody's right all the time, and a broken clock is right twice a day. All of us are destined to live our lives between those two extremes. Unfortunately, the faction that now dominates the Republican Party doesn't see it that way. They think government is the enemy, and compromise is weakness.One of the main reasons America should re-elect President Obama is that he is still committed to cooperation. He appointed Republican secretaries of defense, the army and transportation. He appointed a vice president who ran against him in 2008, and trusted him to oversee the successful end of the war in Iraq and the implementation of the recovery act. And Joe Biden did a great job with both. He appointed Cabinet members who supported Hillary in the primaries. Heck, he even appointed Hillary. I'm so proud of her and grateful to our entire national security team for all they've done to make us safer and stronger and to build a world with more partners and fewer enemies. I'm also grateful to the young men and women who serve our country in the military and to Michelle Obama and Jill Biden for supporting military families when their loved ones are overseas and for helping our veterans, when they come home bearing the wounds of war, or needing help with education, housing, and jobs.President Obama's record on national security is a tribute to his strength, and judgment, and to his preference for inclusion and partnership over partisanship.He also tried to work with congressional Republicans on health care, debt reduction, and jobs, but that didn't work out so well. Probably because, as the Senate Republican leader, in a remarkable moment of candor, said two years before the election, their No. 1 priority was not to put America back to work, but to put President Obama out of work.Senator, I hate to break it to you, but we're going to keep President Obama on the job.In Tampa, the Republican argument against the president's re-election was pretty simple: we left him a total mess, he hasn't cleaned it up fast enough, so fire him and put us back in.In order to look like an acceptable alternative to President Obama, they couldn't say much about the ideas they have offered over the last two years. You see they want to go back to the same oldpolicies that got us into trouble in the first place: to cut taxes for high income Americans even more than President Bush did; to get rid of those pesky financial regulations designed to prevent another crash and prohibit future bailouts; to increase defense spending $2 trillion more than the Pentagon has requested without saying what they'll spend the money on; to make enormous cuts in the rest of the budget, especially programs that help the middle class and poor kids. As another president once said_ there they go again.I like the argument for President Obama's re-election a lot better. He inherited a deeply damaged economy, put a floor under the crash, began the long hard road to recovery, and laid the foundation for a modern, more well-balanced economy that will produce millions of good new jobs, vibrant new businesses, and lots of new wealth for the innovators.Are we where we want to be? No. Is the president satisfied? No. Are we better off than we were when he took office, with an economy in free fall, losing 750,000 jobs a month. The answer is yes.I understand the challenge we face. I know many Americans are still angry and frustrated with the economy. Though employment is growing, banks are beginning to lend and even housing prices are picking up a bit, too many people don't feel it.I experienced the same thing in 1994 and early 1995. Our policies were working and the economy was growing but most people didn't feel it yet. By 1996, the economy was roaring, halfway through the longest peacetime expansion in American history.President Obama started with a much weaker economy than I did. No president_ not me or any of my predecessors could have repaired all the damage in just four years. But conditions are improving and if you'll renew the President's contract you will feel it.I believe that with all my heart.President Obama's approach embodies the values, the ideas, and the direction America must take to build a 21st century version of the American Dream in a nation of shared opportunities, shared prosperity and shared responsibilities.So back to the story. In 2010, as the president's recovery program kicked in, the job losses stopped and things began to turn around.The Recovery Act saved and created millions of jobs and cut taxes for 95 percent of the American people. In the last 29 months the economy has produced about 4.5 million private sector jobs. But last year, the Republicans blocked the president's jobs plan costing the economy more than a million new jobs. So here's another jobs score: President Obama plus 4.5 million, congressional Republicans zero.Over that same period, more than more than 500,000 manufacturing jobs have been created under President Obama_ the first time manufacturing jobs have increased since the 1990s.The auto industry restructuring worked. It saved more than a million jobs, not just at GM, Chrysler and their dealerships, but in auto parts manufacturing all over the country. That's why even auto-makers that weren't part of the deal supported it. They needed to save the suppliers too. Like I said, we're all in this together.Now there are 250,000 more people working in the auto industry than the day the companies were restructured. Gov. Romney opposed the plan to save GM and Chrysler. So here's another jobs score: Obama 250,000, Romney, zero.The agreement the administration made with management, labor and environmental groups to double car mileage over the next few years is another good deal: it will cut your gas bill in half, make us more energy independent, cut greenhouse gas emissions, and add another 500,000 good jobs.President Obama's "all of the above" energy plan is helping too_ the boom in oil and gas production combined with greater energy efficiency has driven oil imports to a near 20 year low and natural gas production to an all-time high. Renewable energy production has also doubled.We do need more new jobs, lots of them, but there are already more than three million jobs open and unfilled in America today, mostly because the applicants don't have the required skills. We have to prepare more Americans for the new jobs that are being created in a world fueled by new technology. That's why investments in our people are more important than ever. The president has supported community colleges and employers in working together to train people for open jobs in their communities. And, after a decade in which exploding college costs have increased the drop-out rate so much that we've fallen to 16th in the world in the percentage of our young adults with college degrees, his student loan reform lowers the cost of federal student loans and even more important, gives students the right to repay the loans as a fixed percentage of their incomes for up to 20 years. That means no one will have to drop-out of college for fear they can't repay their debt, and no one will have to turn down a job, as a teacher, a police officer or a small town doctor because it doesn't pay enough to make the debt payments. This will change the future for young Americans.I know we're better off because President Obama made these decisions.That brings me to health care.The Republicans call it Obamacare and say it's a government takeover of health care that they'll repeal. Are they right? Let's look at what's happened so far. Individuals and businesses have secured more than a billion dollars in refunds from their insurance premiums because the new law requires 80 percent to 85 pecent of your premiums to be spent on health care, not profits or promotion. Other insurance companies have lowered their rates to meet the requirement. More than 3 million young people between 19 and 25 are insured for the first time because their parents can now carry them on family policies. Millions of seniors are receiving preventive careincluding breast cancer screenings and tests for heart problems. Soon the insurance companies, not the government, will have millions of new customers many of them middle class people with pre-existing conditions. And for the last two years, health care spending has grown under 4 pecent, for the first time in 50 years.So are we all better off because President Obama fought for it and passed it? You bet we are.There were two other attacks on the president in Tampa that deserve an answer. Both Gov. Romney and congressman Ryan attacked the president for allegedly robbing Medicare of $716 billion. Here's what really happened. There were no cuts to benefits. None. What the president did was save money by cutting unwarranted subsidies to providers and insurance companies that weren't making people any healthier. He used the saving to close the donut hole in the Medicare drug program, and to add eight years to the life of the Medicare Trust Fund. It's now solvent until 2024. So President Obama and the Democrats didn't weaken Medicare, they strengthened it.When congressman Ryan looked into the TV camera and attacked President Obama's "biggest coldest power play" in raiding Medicare, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. You see, that $716 billion is exactly the same amount of Medicare savings congressman Ryan had in his own budget.At least on this one, Gov. Romney's been consistent. He wants to repeal the savings and give the money back to the insurance companies, re-open the donut hole and force seniors to pay more for drugs, and reduce the life of the Medicare Trust Fund by eight years. So now if he's elected and does what he promised Medicare will go broke by 2016. If that happens, you won't have to wait until their voucher program to begins in 2023 to see the end Medicare as we know it.But it gets worse. They also want to block grant Medicaid and cut it by a third over the coming decade. Of course, that will hurt poor kids, but that's not all. Almost two-thirds of Medicaid is spent on nursing home care for seniors and on people with disabilities, including kids from middle class families, with special needs like, Down syndrome or autism. I don't know how those families are going to deal with it. We can't let it happenNow let's look at the Republican charge that President Obama wants to weaken the work requirements in the welfare reform bill I signed that moved millions of people from welfare to work.Here's what happened. When some Republican governors asked to try new ways to put people on welfare back to work, the Obama administration said they would only do it if they had a credible plan to increase employment by 20 percent. You hear that? More work. So the claim that President Obama weakened welfare reform's work requirement is just not true. But they keep running ads on it. As their campaign pollster said "we're not going to let our campaign be dictated by fact checkers." Now that is true. I couldn't have said it better myself_ I just hope you remember that every time you see the ad.Let's talk about the debt. We have to deal with it or it will deal with us. President Obama hasoffered a plan with $4 trillion in debt reduction over a decade, with $2 of spending reductions for every $1 of revenue increases, and tight controls on future spending. It's the kind of balanced approach proposed by the bipartisan Simpson-Bowles commission.I think the president's plan is better than the Romney plan, because the Romney plan fails the first test of fiscal responsibility: The numbers don't add up.It's supposed to be a debt reduction plan but it begins with $5 trillion in tax cuts over a 10-year period. That makes the debt hole bigger before they even start to dig out. They say they'll make it up by eliminating loopholes in the tax code. When you ask "which loopholes and how much?" they say, "See me after the election on that."People ask me all the time how we delivered four surplus budgets. What new ideas did we bring?I always give a one-word answer: arithmetic. If they stay with a $5 trillion tax cut in a debt reduction plan_ the_ arithmetic tells us that one of three things will happen:1) they'll have to eliminate so many deductions like the ones for home mortgages and charitable giving that middle class families will see their tax bill go up $2,000 year while people making over $3 million a year get will still get a 250,000 dollar tax cut; or2) they'll have to cut so much spending that they'll obliterate the budget for our national parks, for ensuring clean air, clean water, safe food, safe air travel; or they'll cut way back on Pell Grants, college loans, early childhood education and other programs that help middle class families and poor children, not to mention cutting investments in roads, bridges, science, technology and medical research; or3) they'll do what they've been doing for thirty plus years now_ cut taxes more than they cut spending, explode the debt, and weaken the economy. Remember, Republican economic policies quadrupled the debt before I took office and doubled it after I left. We simply can't afford to double-down on trickle-down.President Obama's plan cuts the debt, honors our values, and brightens the future for our children, our families and our nation.My fellow Americans, you have to decide what kind of country you want to live in. If you want a you're on your own, winner take all society you should support the Republican ticket. If you want a country of shared opportunities and shared responsibilities_ a "we're all in it together" society, you should vote for Barack Obama and Joe Biden. If you want every American to vote and you think it's wrong to change voting procedures just to reduce the turnout of younger, poorer, minority and disabled voters, you should support Barack Obama. If you think the president was right to open the doors of American opportunity to young immigrants brought here as children who want to go to college or serve in the military, you should vote for Barack Obama. If you want a future of shared prosperity, where the middle class is growing and poverty is declining, where the American Dream is alive and well, and where the United States remains the leading force forpeace and prosperity in a highly competitive world, you should vote for Barack Obama.I love our country_ and I know we're coming back. For more than 200 years, through every crisis, we've always come out stronger than we went in. And we will again as long as we do it together. We champion the cause for which our founders pledged their lives, their fortunes, their sacred honor_ to form a more perfect union.If that's what you believe, if that's what you want, we have to re-elect President Barack Obama.God bless you _ God bless America.。

美国前总统克林顿在2012美国民主党大会上的讲话

美国前总统克林顿在2012美国民主党大会上的讲话

PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON: Thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you. (Sustained cheers, applause.) Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.Now, Mr. Mayor, fellow Democrats, we are here to nominate a president. (Cheers, applause.) And I’ve got one in mind. (Cheers, applause.)I want to nominate a man whose own life has known its fair share of adversity and uncertainty. I want to nominate a man who ran for president to change the course of an already weak economy and then just six weeks before his election, saw it suffer the biggest collapse since the Great Depression; a man who stopped the slide into depression and put us on the long road to recovery, knowing all the while that no matter how many jobs that he saved or created, there’d still be millions more waiting, worried about feeding their own kids, trying to keep their hopes alive.I want to nominate a man who’s cool on the outside — (cheers, applause) — but who burns for America on the inside. (Cheers, applause.)I want — I want a man who believes with no doubt that we can build a new American Dream economy, driven by innovation and creativity, but education and —yes —by cooperation. (Cheers.)And by the way, after last night, I want a man who had the good sense to marry Michelle Obama. (Cheers, applause.)You know — (cheers, applause). I — (cheers, applause).I want — I want Barack Obama to be the next president of the United States. (Cheers, applause.) And I proudly nominate him to be the standard-bearer of the Democratic Party.Now, folks, in Tampa a few days ago, we heard a lot of talk — (laughter) — all about how the president and the Democrats don’t really believe in free enterprise and individual initiative, how we want everybody to be dependent on the government, how bad we are for the economy.This Republican narrative — this alternative universe — (laughter, applause) — says that every one of us in this room who amou nts to anything, we’re all completely self-made. One of the greatest chairmen the Democratic Party ever had, Bob Strauss — (cheers, applause) — used to say that ever politician wants every voter to believe he was born in a log cabin he built himself. (Laug hter, applause.) But, as Strauss then admitted, it ain’t so. (Laughter.)We Democrats —we think the country works better with a strong middle class, with real opportunities for poor folks to work their way into it — (cheers, applause) — with a relentless focus on the future, with business and government actually working together to promote growth and broadly share prosperity. You see, we believe that “we’re all in this together” is a far better philosophy than “you’re on your own.” (Cheers, applause.) It is.So who’s right? (Cheers.) Well, since 1961, for 52 years now, the Republicans have held the White House 28 years, the Democrats, 24. In those 52 years, our private economy has produced 66 million private sector jobs.So what’s the job score? Republ icans, 24 million; Democrats, 42 (million). (Cheers, applause.)Now, there’s — (cheers, applause) —there’s a reason for this. It turns out that advancing equal opportunity and economic empowerment is both morally right and good economics. (Cheers, applause.) Why? Because poverty, discrimination and ignorance restrict growth. (Cheers, applause.) When you stifle human potential, when you don’t invest in new ideas, it doesn’t just cut off the people who are affected; it hurts us all. (Cheers, applause.) We know that investments in education and infrastructure and scientific and technological research increase growth. They increase good jobs, and they create new wealth for all the rest of us. (Cheers, applause.)Now, there’s something I’ve noticed lately. You probably have too. And it’s this. Maybe just because I grew up in a different time, but though I often disagree with Republicans, I actually never learned to hate them the way the far right that now controls their party seems to hate our president and a lot of other Democrats. I — (cheers, applause) — that would be impossible for me because President Eisenhower sent federal troops to my home state to integrate Little Rock Central High School. (Cheers, applause.) President Eisenhower built the interstate highway system.When I was a governor, I worked with President Reagan and his White House on the first round of welfare reform and with President George H.W. Bush on national education goals.(Cheers, applause.) I’m actually very grateful to — if you saw from the film what I do today, I have to be grateful, and you should be, too — that President George W. Bush supported PEPFAR. It saved the lives of millions of people in poor countries. (Cheers, applause.)And I have been honored to work with both Presidents Bush on natural disasters in the aftermath of the South Asian tsunami, Hurricane Katrina, the horrible earthquake in Haiti. Through my foundation, both in America and around the world, I’m working all the time with Democrats, Republicans and independents. Sometimes I couldn’t tell you for the life who I’m working with because we focus on solving problems and seizing opportunities and not fighting all the time. (Cheers, applause.)And so here’s what I want to say to you, and here’s what I want the people at home to think about. When times are tough and people are frustrated and angry and hurting and uncertain, the politics of constant conflict may be good. But what is good politics does not necessarily work in the real world. What works in the real world is cooperation. (Cheers, applause.) What works in the real world is cooperation, business and government, foundations and universities.Ask the mayors who are here. (Cheers, applause.) Los Angeles is getting green and Chicago is getting an infrastructure bank because Republicans and Democrats are working together to get it.(Cheers, applause.) They didn’t check their brains at the door. They didn’t stop disagreeing, but their purpose was to get something done.Now, why is this true? Why does cooperation work better than constant conflict?Because nobody’s right all the time, and a broken clock is right twice a day. (Cheers, applause.)And every one of us — every one of us and every on e of them, we’re compelled to spend our fleeting lives between those two extremes, knowing we’re never going to be right all the time and hoping we’re right more than twice a day. (Laughter.)Unfortunately, the faction that now dominates the Republican Pa rty doesn’t see it that way. They think government is always the enemy, they’re always right, and compromise is weakness. (Boos.) Just in the last couple of elections, they defeated two distinguished Republican senators because they dared to cooperate with Democrats on issues important to the future of the country, even national security. (Applause.)They beat a Republican congressman with almost a hundred percent voting record on every conservative score, because he said he realized he did not have to hate the president to disagree with him. Boy, that was a nonstarter, and they threw him out. (Laughter, applause.)One of the main reasons we ought to re-elect President Obama is that he is still committed to constructive cooperation. (Cheers, applause.) Look at his record. Look at his record. (Cheers, applause.) Look at his record. He appointed Republican secretaries of defense, the Army and transportation. He appointed a vice president who ran against him in 2008. (Laughter, applause.) And he trusted that vice president to oversee the successful end of the war in Iraq and the implementation of the recovery act. (Cheers, applause.)And Joe Biden — Joe Biden did a great job with both. (Sustained cheers, applause.)He — (sustained cheers, applause) — President Obama — President Obama appointed several members of his Cabinet even though they supported Hillary in the primary. (Applause.) Heck, he even appointed Hillary. (Cheers, applause.)Wait a minute. I am — (sustained cheers, applause) — I am very proud of her. I am proud of the job she and the national security team have done for America. (Cheers, applause.) I am grateful that they have worked together to make us safer and stronger, to build a world with more partners and fewer enemies. I’m grateful for t he relationship of respect and partnership she and the president have enjoyed and the signal that sends to the rest of the world, that democracy does not have a blood —have to be a blood sport, it can be an honorable enterprise that advances the public interest. (Cheers, applause.)Now — (sustained cheers, applause) — besides the national security team, I am very grateful to the men and women who’ve served our country in uniform through these perilous times. (Cheers,applause.) And I am especially grateful to Michelle Obama and to Joe Biden for supporting those military families while their loved ones were overseas — (cheers, applause) — and for supporting our veterans when they came home, when they came home bearing the wounds of war or needing help to find education or jobs or housing.President Obama’s whole record on national security is a tribute to his strength, to his judgment and to his preference for inclusion and partnership over partisanship. We need more if it in Washington, D.C. (Cheers, applause.)Now, we all know that he also tried to work with congressional Republicans on health care, debt reduction and new jobs. And that didn’t work out so well. (Laughter.) But it could have been because, as the Senate Republican leader said in a remarkable moment of candor two full years before the election, their number one priority was not to put America back to work; it was to put the president out of work. (Mixed cheers and boos, applause.) (Chuckles.) Well, wait a minute. Senator, I hate to break it to you, but we’re going to keep President Obama on the job. (Cheers, applause.)Now, are you ready for that? (Cheers, applause.) Are you willing to work for it. Oh, wait a minute.AUDIENCE MEMBERS: (Chanting.) Four more years! Four more years! Four more years! Four more years!PRESIDENT CLINTON: In Tampa —AUDIENCE MEMBERS: (Chanting.) Four more years! Four more years!PRESIDENT CLINTON: In Tampa — in Tampa —did y’all watch their convention?I did. (Laught er.) In Tampa, the Republican argument against the president’s re-election was actually pretty simple — pretty snappy. It went something like this: We left him a total mess. He hasn’t cleaned it up fast enough. So fire him and put us back in. (Laughter, ap plause.)Now —(cheers, applause) —but they did it well. They looked good; the sounded good. They convinced me that — (laughter) — they all love their families and their children and were grateful they’d been born in America and all that — (laughter, applause) —really, I’m not being — they did. (Laughter, applause.)And this is important, they convinced me they were honorable people who believed what they said and they’re going to keep every commitment they’ve made. We just got to make sure the American people know what those commitments are — (cheers, applause) — because in order to look like an acceptable, reasonable, moderate alternative to President Obama, they just didn’t say very much about the ideas they’ve offered over the last two years.They couldn’t because they want to the same old policies that got us in trouble in the first place.They want to cut taxes for high- income Americans, even more than President Bush did. They want to get rid of those pesky financial regulations designed to prevent another crash and prohibit future bailouts. They want to actually increase defense spending over a decade $2 trillion more than the Pentagon has requested without saying what they’ll spend it on. And they want to make enormous cuts in the rest of the budget, especially programs that help the middle class and poor children.As another president once said, there they go again.(Laughter, cheers, applause.)Now, I like — I like —I like the argument for President Obama’s re-election a lot better. Here it is. He inherited a deeply damaged economy. He put a floor under the crash. He began the long, hard road to recovery and laid the foundation for a modern, more well- balanced economy that will produce millions of good new jobs, vibrant new businesses and lots of new wealth for innovators. (Cheers, applause.)Now, are we where we want to be today? No.AUDIENCE MEMBERS: No!PRESIDENT CLINTON: Is the president satisfied? Of course not.AUDIENCE MEMBERS: No!PRESIDENT CLINTON: But are we better off than we were when he took office? (Cheers, applause.)And listen to this. Listen to this. Everybody — (inaudible) — when President Barack Obama took office, the economy was in free fall. It had just shrunk 9 full percent of GDP. We were losing 750,000 jobs a month.Are we doing better than that today?AUDIENCE MEMBERS: Yes! (Applause.)PRESIDENT CLINTON: The answer is yes.Now, look. Here’s the challenge he faces and the challenge all of you who support him face. I get it. I know it. I’ve been there. A lot of Americans are still angry and frustrated about this economy. If you look at the numbers, you know employment is growing, banks are beginning to lend again. And in a lot of places, housing prices are even beginning to pick up.But too many people do not feel it yet.I had the same thing happen in 1994 and early ‘95. We could see that the policies were working, that the economy was growing. But most people didn’t feel it yet. Thankfully, by 1996 the economy was roaring, everybody felt it, and we were halfway through the longest peacetime expansion in the history of the United States. But —(cheers, applause) —wait, wait. The difference this time is purely in the circumstances. President Obama started with a much weaker economy than I did. Listen to me, now. No president —no president, not me, not any of my predecessors, no one could have fully repaired all the damage that he found in just four years. (Cheers, applause.)Now —but — (cheers, applause) —he has —he has laid the foundation for a new, modern, successful economy of shared prosperity. And if you will renew the president’s contract, you will feel it. You will feel it. (Cheers, applause.)Folks, whether the American people believe what I just said or not may be the whole election. I just want you to know that I believe it. With all my heart, I believe it. (Cheers, applause.)Now, why do I believe it?I’m fixing to tell you why. I believe it because President Obama’s approach embodies the values, the ideas and the direction America has to take to build the 21st-century version of the American Dream: a nation of shared opportunities, shared responsibilities, shared prosperity, a shared sense of community.So let’s get back to the story. In 2010, as the president’s recovery program kicked in, the job losses stopped and things began to turn around. The recovery act saved or created millions of jobs and cut taxes — let me say this again — cut taxes for 95 percent of the American people. (Cheers, applause.) And, in the last 29 months, our economy has produced about 4 1/2 million private sector jobs. (Cheers, applause.)We could have done better, but last y ear the Republicans blocked the president’s job plan, costing the economy more than a million new jobs.So here’s another job score. President Obama: plus 4 1/2 million. Congressional Republicans: zero. (Cheers, applause.)During this period — (cheers, applause) — during this period, more than 500,000 manufacturing jobs have been created under President Obama. That’s the first time manufacturing jobs have increased since the 1990s. (Cheers, applause.) And I’ll tell you something else. The auto industry restructuring worked. (Cheers, applause.) It saved — it saved more than a million jobs, and not just at GM, Chrysler and their dealerships but in auto parts manufacturing all over the country.That’s why even the automakers who weren’t part of the deal s upported it. They needed to save those parts suppliers too. Like I said, we’re all in this together. (Applause.)So what’s happened? There are now 250,000 more people working in the auto industry than on the day the companies were restructured. (Cheers, applause.)So — now, we all know that Governor Romney opposed the plan to save GM and Chrysler. (Boos.) So here’s another job score. (Laughter.) Are you listening in Michigan and Ohio and across the country? (Cheers.) Here —(cheers, applause) —here’s an other job score: Obama, 250,000; Romney, zero.AUDIENCE MEMBERS: (With speaker.) Zero. (Cheers, applause.)PRESIDENT CLINTON: Now, the agreement the administration made with the management, labor and environmental groups to double car mileage, that was a good deal too. It will cut your gas prices in half, your gas bill. No matter what the price is, if you double the mileage of your car, your bill will be half what it would have been. It will make us more energy independent. It will cut greenhouse gas em issions. And according to several analyses, over the next 20 years, it’ll bring us another half a million good new jobs into the American economy. (Cheers, applause.)The president’s energy strategy, which he calls “all of the above,” is helping too. The boom in oil and gas production, combined with greater energy efficiency, has driven oil imports to a near-20- year low and natural gas production to an all-time high. And renewable energy production has doubled.(Cheers, applause.)Of course, we need a lot more new jobs. But there are already more than 3 million jobs open and unfilled in America, mostly because the people who apply for them don’t yet have the required skills to do them. So even as we get Americans more jobs, we have to prepare more Americans for the new jobs that are actually going to be created. The old economy is not coming back. We’ve got to build a new one and educate people to do those jobs. (Cheers, applause.)The president — the president and his education secretary have supported community colleges and employers in working together to train people for jobs that are actually open in their communities — and even more important after a decade in which exploding college costs have increased the dropout rate so much that the percentage of our young people with four-year college degrees has gone down so much that we have dropped to 16th in the world in the percentage of young people with college degrees.So the president’s student loan is more important than ever. Here’s what it does —(cheers, applause) —here’s what it does. You need to tell every voter where you live about this. It lowers the cost of federal student loans. And even more important, it give students the right to repay those loans as a clear, fixed, low percentage of their income for up to 20 years. (Cheers, applause.)Now what does this mean? What does this mean? Think of it. It means no one will ever have to drop out of college again fo r fear they can’t repay their debt.And it means — (cheers, applause) — it means that if someone wants to take a job with a modest income, a teacher, a police officer, if they want to be a small-town doctor in a little rural area, they won’t have to turn those jobs down because they don’t pay enough to repay they debt. Their debt obligation will be determined by their salary. This will change the future for young America. (Cheers, applause.)I don’t know about you — (cheers, applause) — but on all these issues, I know we’re better off because President Obama made the decisions he did.Now, that brings me to health care. (Cheers, applause.) And the Republicans call it, derisively, “Obamacare.” They say it’s a government takeover, a disaster, and that if we’ll just elect them, they’ll repeal it. Well, are they right?AUDIENCE MEMBERS: No!PRESIDENT CLINTON: Let’s take a look at what’s actually happened so far.First, individuals and businesses have already gotten more than a billion dollars in refunds from insurance companies because the new law requires 80 (percent) to 85 percent of your premium to go to your health care, not profits or promotion. (Cheers, applause.) And the gains are even greater than that because a bunch of insurance companies have applied to lower their rates to comply with the requirement.Second, more than 3 million young people between 19 and 25 are insured for the first time because their parents’ policies can cover them.(Cheers, applause.)Millions of seniors are receiving preventive care, all the way from breast cancer screenings to tests for heart problems and scores of other things. And younger people are getting them, too.Fourth, soon the insurance companies — not the government, the insurance companies — will have millions of new customers, many of them middle-class people with pre-existing conditions who never could get insurance before. (Cheers, applause.)Now, finally, listen to this. For the last two years —after going up at three times the rate of inflation for a decade, for the last two years health care costs have been under 4 percent in both years for the first time in 50 years. (Cheers, applause.)So let me ask you something. Are we better off because President Obama fought for health care reform? (Cheers, applause.) You bet we are.Now, there were two other attacks on the president in Tampa I think deserve an answer. First, both Governor Romney and Congressman Ryan attacked the president for allegedly robbing Medicare of $716 billion. That’s the same attack they leveled against the C ongress in 2010, and they got a lot of votes on it. But it’s not true. (Applause.)Look, here’s what really happened. You be the judge. Here’s what really happened. There were no cuts to benefits at all. None. What the president did was to save money by taking the recommendations of a commission of professionals to cut unwarranted subsidies to providers and insurance companies that were not making people healthier and were not necessary to get the providers to provide the service.And instead of raiding Medicare, he used the savings to close the doughnut hole in the Medicare drug program — (cheers, applause) — and — you all got to listen carefully to this; this is really important — and to add eight years to the life of the Medicare trust fund so it is solvent till 2024. (Cheers, applause.)So —(chuckles) —so President Obama and the Democrats didn’t weaken Medicare; they strengthened Medicare. Now, when Congressman Ryan looked into that TV camera and attacked President Obama’s Medicare savings as, quote, the biggest, coldest power play, I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry — (laughter) —because that $716 billion is exactly, to the dollar, the same amount of Medicare savings that he has in his own budget. (Cheers, applause.) You got to get one thing — it takes some brass to attack a guy for doing what you did. (Laughter, cheers, applause.)So — (inaudible) — (sustained cheers, applause) —now, you’re having a good time, but this is getting serious, and I want you to listen.(Laughter.) It’s important, because a lot of people believe this stuff.Now, at least on this issue, on this one issue, Governor Romney has been consistent. (Laughter.) He attacked President Obama too, but he actually wants to repeal those savings and give the money back to the insurance company. (Laughter, boos.)He wants to go back to the old system, which means we’ll reopen the doughnut hole and force seniors to pay more for drugs, and we’ll reduce the life of the Medicare trust fund by eight full years. (Boos.)So if he’s elected, and if he does what he promised to do, Medicare will now grow (sic/go) broke in 2016. (Boos.) Think about that. That means, after all, we won’t have to wait until their voucher program kicks in 2023 — (laughter) —to see the end of Medicare as we know it. (Applause.) They’re going to do it to us sooner than we thought. (Applause.)Now, folks, this is serious, because it gets worse. (Laughter.) And you won’t be laughing when Ifinish telling you this. They also want to block-grant Medicaid, and cut it by a third over the coming 10 years.AUDIENCE MEMBER: No!PRESIDENT CLINTON: Of course, that’s going to really hurt a lot of poor kids. But that’s not all. Lot of folks don’t know it, but nearly two-thirds of Medicaid is spent on nursing home care for Medicare seniors — (applause) — who are eligible for Medicaid.(Cheers, applause.) It’s going to end Medicare as we know it. And a lot of that money is also spent to help people with disabilities, including —(cheers, applause) —a lot of middle-class families whose kids have Down’s syndrome or autism or other severe conditions. (Applause.) And honestly, let’s think about it, if that happens, I don’t know what those families are going to do.So I know what I’m going to do. I’m going to do everything I can to see that it doesn’t happen. We can’t let it happen. (Cheers, applause.) We can’t. (Cheers, applause.) Now —wait a minute. (Cheers, applause.) Let’s look —AUDIENCE MEMBERS: Four more years! Four more years! Four more years!PRESIDENT CLINTON: Let’s look at the other big charge the Republicans made. It’s a real doozy. (Laughter.) They actually have charged and run ads saying that President Obama wants to weaken the work requirements in the welfare reform bill I signed that moved millions of people from welfare to work. (Jeers.) Wait, you need to know, here’s what happened. (Laughter.) Nobody ever tells you what really happened —here’s what happened.When some Republican governors asked if they could have waivers to try new ways to put people on welfare back to work, the Obama administration listened because we all know it’s hard for even people with good work histories to get jobs today. So moving folks from welfare to work is a real challenge.And the administration agreed to give waivers to those governors and others only if they had a credible plan to increase employment by 20 percent, and they could keep the waivers only if they did increase employment. Now, did I make myself clear? The requirement was for more work, not less. (Cheers, applause.)So this is personal to me. We moved millions of people off welfare. It was one of the reasons that in the eight years I was president, we had a hundred times as many people move out of poverty into the middle class than happened under the previous 12 years, a hundred times as many. (Cheers, applause.) It’s a big deal. But I am telling you the claim that President Obama weakened welfare reform’s work requirement is just not true. (Applause.)But they keep on running the ads claiming it. You want to know why? Their campaign pollster said, we are not going to let our campaign be dictated by fact-checkers. (Jeers, applause.) Now,finally I can say, that is true. (Laughter, cheers, applause.) I — (chuckles) —I couldn’t have said it better myself. (Laughter.)And I hope you and every American within the sound of my voice remembers it every time they see one of those ads, and it turns into an ad to re-elect Barack Obama and keep the fundamental principles of personal empowerment and moving everybody who can get a job into work as soon as we can. (Cheers, applause.)Now, let’s talk about the debt. Today, interest rates are low, lower than the rate of inflation. People are practically paying us to borrow money, to hold their money for them.But it will become a big problem when the economy grows and interest rates start to rise. We’ve got to deal with this big long- term debt problem or it will deal with us. It will gobble up a bigger and bigger percentage of the federal budget we’d r ather spend on education and health care and science and technology. It —we’ve got to deal with it.Now, what has the president done? He has offered a reasonable plan of $4 trillion in debt reduction over a decade, with 2 1/2 trillion (dollars) coming from — for every $2 1/2 trillion in spending cuts, he raises a dollar in new revenues —2 1/2-to-1. And he has tight controls on future spending. That’s the kind of balanced approach proposed by the Simpson-Bowles Commission, a bipartisan commission.Now, I think this plan is way better than Governor Romney’s plan. First, the Romney plan failed the first test of fiscal responsibility. The numbers just don’t add up. (Laughter, applause.)I mean, consider this. What would you do if you had this problem? Som ebody says, oh, we’ve gota big debt problem. We’ve got to reduce the debt. So what’s the first thing you say we’re going to do? Well, to reduce the debt, we’re going to have another $5 trillion in tax cuts heavily weighted to upper-income people. So we’ll make the debt hole bigger before we start to get out of it.Now, when you say, what are you going to do about this $5 trillion you just added on? They say, oh, we’ll make it up by eliminating loopholes in the tax code.So then you ask, well, which loopholes, and how much?You know what they say? See me about that after the election. (Laughter.)I’m not making it up. That’s their position. See me about that after the election.Now, people ask me all the time how we got four surplus budgets in a row. What new ideas did we bring to Washington? I always give a one-word answer: Arithmetic. (Sustained cheers, applause.)If —arithmetic! If —(applause) —if they stay with their $5 trillion tax cut plan —in a debt。

联合国秘书长世界2012年艾滋病日致辞(中英对照版)

联合国秘书长世界艾滋病日致辞(双语)Heading into the fourth decade of AIDS, we are finally in a position to end the epidemic. Print EnglishThe progress we have made so far is proof that we can realize our vision of zero new HIV infections, zero discrimination and zero AIDS-related deaths.The number of new HIV infections has fallen by more than 20 per cent since 1997. New infections are continuing to decline in most parts of the world. In sub-Saharan Africa, the region most affected by the AIDS epidemic, HIV incidence has decreased in 22 countries.Among populations at risk, the tide is shifting. Access to HIV prevention services are helping young people, sex workers and their clients, people who inject drugs, men who have sex with men, and transgender people to take control of their health for greater well-being.Treatment has averted 2.5 million AIDS-related deaths since 1985. Last year alone, 700,000 lives were saved. Some 6.6 million people, nearly half those who need treatment in low- and middle-income countries, are now receiving it.Synergies between prevention and treatment are speeding up progress.But to end AIDS, we need to deliver even greater results.This year in June, the United Nations General Assembly’s High-Level Meeting on AIDS adopted bold targets for 2015: reduce the sexual transmission of HIV by half, eliminate new infections in children, provide treatment for 15 million people living with HIV, end 值此第四个艾滋病十年来临之际,我们终于迎来消灭这一流行病的契机。

国旗下讲话稿之世界艾滋病日国旗下讲话

国旗下讲话稿之世界艾滋病日国旗下讲话

国旗下讲话稿之世界艾滋病日国旗下讲话老师们,同学们:每年的12月1日是“世界艾滋病日”,你知道这个日子的由来吗?世界卫生组织在1988年1月在伦敦召开了一次“全球预防艾滋病规划”的部长级高级会议。

在这个会议上提出,把1988年作为全球防艾滋病年;把每年12月1日作为全世界宣传防治艾滋病的日子,称之为世界艾滋病日(更确切的说是“世界同艾滋病作斗争日”),以号召世界各国和国际组织在这一天举办相关活动,宣传和普及预防艾滋病的知识,让全世界人民行动起来,共同对抗艾滋病。

艾滋病的医学全名为“获得性免疫缺陷综合征”,由人类免疫缺陷病毒引起。

这种病毒终生传染,能够破坏人体免疫系统,使人丧失抵抗各种疾病的能力。

艾滋病病毒的传播途径主要包括血液、母婴遗传和性接触等。

目前,艾滋病仍为不治之症。

鸡尾酒疗法,即抗逆转录病毒疗法,是治疗艾滋病有效的方法之一。

自1981年美国研究人员发现世界首例艾滋病病例后,艾滋病在全球范围内迅速蔓延。

2001年6月,联合国大会艾滋病问题特别会议通过了《关于艾滋病问题的承诺宣言》,为国际社会防治艾滋病行动制订了统一目标和行动规划,以达到在2015年年底以前遏制并开始扭转艾滋病蔓延趋势的总体目标。

多年来,国际社会为防治艾滋病作出了不懈努力,并取得积极进展。

联合国艾滋病规划署今年7月29日发表的《2008年全球艾滋病疫情报告》指出,全球艾滋病防治在2007年首次出现了“明显的重要进展”,艾滋病病毒新感染人数和死亡人数都有所下降。

报告显示,2007年新增艾滋病病毒感染者为250万人,低于1998年的320万人;2007年约有200万人死于艾滋病,比2001年少20万人。

全球目前仍有3320万名艾滋病病毒感染者,其中2250万名感染者分布在撒哈拉沙漠以南的众多非洲国家。

我们也相信,有党和政府的坚强领导,有全社会的积极参与,艾滋病防治工作一定会取得新的更大的进展。

第27个世界艾滋病日国旗下的讲话稿2篇

第27个世界艾滋病日国旗下的讲话稿2篇

第27个世界艾滋病日国旗下的讲话稿2篇篇一:世界艾滋病日国旗下的讲话稿2014年12月1日,是第27个“世界艾滋病日”。

今年世界艾滋病日的主题是“行动起来,向‘零’艾滋迈进”,(英文主题为“Getting to Zero”),副标题为“凝聚力量,攻坚克难,控制艾滋”。

意在说明我国艾滋病防治工作到了关键时期,面临很多困难和挑战,需要动员各级政府、部门、社会组织和志愿者,集中各方面力量,解放思想、开拓创新、破解防治工作难题,控制艾滋病流行。

1988年1月世界卫生组织在伦敦召开了一次“全球预防艾滋病规划”的部长级高级会议,把每年12月1日作为全世界宣传防治艾滋病的日子,称之为世界艾滋病日。

以后每年的12月1日都被作为“世界艾滋病日”以号召全世界人民行动起来,共同对抗艾滋病。

为什么艾滋病会受到全世界如此高度的重视呢?因为艾滋病是人类近代医学史上最使人恐惧的一种疾病,艾滋病的医学全名为“获得性免疫缺陷综合症”,它是由人类免疫缺陷病毒引起的。

艾滋病病毒侵入人体后破坏人体的免疫功能,使人体发生多种难以治愈的感染和肿瘤,最终导致死亡。

号称“超级癌症”和“世纪杀手”的艾滋病,传播快,死亡率高,目前在国际医学界还没有治愈的药物和方法。

艾滋病毒的感染途径主要有三条:血液途径传播,性途径传播,和母婴途径传播。

因此,艾滋病虽然可怕,但其传播方式明确。

人们只要洁身自好、纠正不良行为,完全可以预防。

但是,目前艾滋病传播与流行的条件依然存在,甚至有所加剧。

人们性观念已经发生较明显的变化;吸毒人群增加,且静脉吸毒的比例逐渐增高;预防艾滋病知识普遍缺乏,等等。

因此,要有效的预防和控制艾滋病,就必须从青少年时期接受有关艾滋病预防基本知识的教育,了解艾滋病的危险是确实存在的,并培养良好的卫生习惯和健康的观念,警惕艾滋病的发生。

作为一个青少年,应该认识到:艾滋病的传播没有国界,我国是世界上的人口大国,是国际社会的一员,有责任和世界各国携手共同努力控制艾滋病的蔓延;学习预防艾滋病的知识,不仅使青少年能及时了解与掌握预防艾滋病的知识、增强自我保护意识和抵御艾滋病侵袭的能力;更重要的是培养预防艾滋病的社会责任感、使命感。

奥巴马有关艾滋病演讲

奥巴马有关艾滋病演讲

• So this fight is not over. Not for the 1.2 million Americans who are living with HIV right now. Not for the Americans who are infected every day. This fight is not over for them, it’s not over for their families, and as a consequence, it can’t be over for anybody in this room — and it certainly isn’t over for your President. • 这场斗争尚未结束。对120万携带艾滋病毒的美 国人来说还没有。对那些每天正在受到感染的美 国人来说还没有。这场斗争对他们来说尚未结束。 对他们的家人来说尚未结束。因此,对这里在座 的每个人来说不能结束——对你们的总统来说绝 对没有结束。
• Because we invested in anti-retroviral treatment, people who would have died, some of whom are here today, are living full and vibrant lives. Because we developed new tools, more and more mothers are giving birth to children free from this disease. And because of a persistent focus on awareness, the global rate of new infections and deaths is declining.

克林顿国务卿为纪念世界艾滋病日发表讲话

克林顿国务卿为纪念世界艾滋病日发表讲话

Secretary Clinton on Observance of World AIDS DayWashington, D.C.SECRETARY CLINTON: Thank you all very much. Oh my goodness. Thank you. I think we could just end the program right now. (Laughter.) Florence, thank you. Thank you for continuing to be a smiling advocate on behalf of an AIDS-free generation. And congratulations on those two sons of yours, who are the strongest evidence of what we can achieve. I’m very grateful to you for sharing your energy, your story, and your passion with us today.I am so pleased to have this opportunity to unveil, formally, the blueprint for an AIDS-free generation. And this could not have happened without Dr. Eric Goosby. I’ve known Eric a long time. When I decided to accept the President’s offer to become Secretary of S tate, I knew there was only one person that I would hope to recruit to become our Global AIDS Ambassador. Because Eric has both the firsthand experience, going back to the very beginning of his medical training and practice in San Francisco, to the vision he has as to continue to push us to do even more than we think we possibly can, and the drive to actually deliver that. He’s a unique human being, and we are so grateful for his service. And I want to return the favor, my friend, and thank you publicly for everything you have done. (Applause.)Also sitting in the front row is the man who has been leading the government’s research efforts from the very early days of the epidemic, Dr. Tony Fauci. Thank you for being here and thank you for everything you have done. (Applause.)From USAID, we have Dr. Ariel Pablos-Mendez, who has also been, along with everyone at USAID and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other government agencies, one of those public servants who has dedicated his or her life to this work.So I am grateful to everyone in our government who has done what has made all the difference. We could not be making this announcement had it not been for the countless hours in laboratories, at bedsides, in the field, everything that people have contributed.And also let me thank Michel Sidibe, who has also been on the frontlines, and from UNAIDS, an absolutely essentially organization in playing the irreplaceable role in this fight. Thank you so much, Michel. (Applause.)And Dr. Dlamini-Zuma, the first woman to chair the African Union Commission, a longtime public servant, government official, activist in South Africa. The AU is a critical partner in our work against HIV/AIDS, and I don’t think there’s anyone who is better positioned to lead the AU at this time. And the fact she’s the first women to lead the AU in its 50-year history is an additional benefit. Thank you so much, my friend. (Applause.)And to Senator Enzi and Congresswoman Lee and Congressman Bass, who truly have been leaders, but also represent members of Congress on both sides of the aisle. This is a program that really has had bipartisan support – the leadership of President Bush in creating PEPFAR, the commitment and leadership of President Obama. This is something that I think has really made a difference for Americans and for America. It represents our very best values in practice.So to all the members of Congress, the advocates and activists, the scientists, people living with HIV, thank you for joining us as we take this next step in the journey we began years ago, but which we formally announced a year ago, to change the course of this pandemic and usher in an AIDS-free generation.Now, make no mistake about it: HIV may well be with us into the future. But the disease that it causes need not be. We can reach a point where virtually no children are born with the virus, and as these children become teenagers and adults, they are at a far lower risk of becoming infected than they are today. And if they do acquire HIV, they have access to treatment that helps prevent them from not only from developing AIDS, but from and passing the virus on to others.Now earlier this year, at the International AIDS Conference here in Washington, I described some of the steps we have taken to achieve an AIDS-free generation. And today, I want to step back and make two broad points about this goal.First, let’s remember why, after so many years of discouraging news, this goal is now possible. By applying evidence-based strategies in the most effective combinations, we have cut the number of new infections dramatically. Just last week, UNAIDS announced that, over the past decade, the rate of new HIV infections has dropped by more than half in 25 low-and-middle-income countries, most of them in Sub-Saharan Africa. Just listen to these numbers: In Zimbabwe, a 50 percent reduction; in Namibia, a 68 percent reduction; and in Malawi, a 73 percent reduction in the rate of new infections.So as we continue to drive down the number of new infections and drive up the number of people on treatment, eventually we will be able to treat more people than become infected every year. That will be the tipping point. We will then get ahead of the pandemic, and an AIDS-free generation will be in our sight. Now, we don’t know how long it will take to do this everywhere, but we know that we can do it.And that brings me to the second point: We’ve set the goal. We know it’s possible. Now we have to deliver. That may sound obvious, but it isn’t, because the history of globa l health and development is littered with grand plans that never panned out. And that matters, because if we make commitments and then fail to keep them, not only will ourcredibility be diminished, but people will lose heart. They will conclude, wrongly, that progress just isn’t possible, and everyone will lose faith in each other. That will cost lives. And in the fight against HIV/AIDS, failing to live up to our commitments isn’t just disappointing, it is deadly.That’s why I am so relentlessly focused on delivering results. In July, I asked Eric Goosby and his team to produce a plan to show precisely how America will help achieve anAIDS-free generation. As I said then, I want the next Congress, the next Secretary of State, and our partners everywhere to know how we will contribute to achieving this goal. And the result is the blueprint we are releasing today. It lays out five goals and many specific steps we will take to accomplish those goals.First, we are committing to rapidly scaling up the most effective prevention and treatment interventions. And today, I can announce some new numbers that show how far we’ve already come. This year, through PEPFAR, we directly supported nearly 5.1 million people on antiretroviral treatment. (Applause.) That is a 200 percent increase since 2008.Now, think for a moment what this means. What did Florence say was the only hope she could give her fellow women living with HIV? She said it was the ARVs. And this year, the American people gave that hope to more than 5 million of their fellow citizens on this earth. And through them, we gave hope to their families and communities, and I think that should make every American profoundly proud.Now, our second goal is that the blueprint says we have to go where the virus is, targeting the populations at the greatest risk of contracting HIV, including people who inject drugs, sex workers, and those trafficked into prostitution, and men who have sex with men. (Applause.)When discrimination, stigma, and other factors drive these groups into the shadows, the epidemic becomes that much harder to fight. That’s why we are supporting country-ledplans to expand services for key populations, and bolstering the efforts of civil society groups to reach out to them. And we are investing in research to identify the interventions that are most effective for each key population.As part of our effort to go where the virus is, we are focusing even more intently on women and girls, because they are still at higher risk then men of acquiring HIV because of gender inequity and violence. So we are working to ensure that HIV/AIDS programs recognize the particular needs of women and girls, for example, by integrating these efforts with family planning and reproductive health services. (Applause.) We are also working to prevent and respond to gender-based violence, invest in girls’ education, address gender inequality, and take other steps that have been proven to lower their risk of contracting the virus.Third, we will promote sustainability, efficiency, and effectiveness. We’ve already saved hundreds of millions of dollars by switching to generic drugs in our treatment regimen. And we will continue to ensure that we get the most out of every dollar spent.Fourth, we will promote a global effort to achieve an AIDS-free generation, because this must be a shared responsibility. That means our partner countries must step up to the responsibilities of country ownership. And we look to our partner countries to define the services their people need the most, set priorities, and convene funding partners to coordinate. Donors must meet their funding commitments while also doing more to support country ownership.To drive all these efforts, the United States will continue to support the Global Fund, we will invest in global health diplomacy, and use our diplomatic leverage to support our goals and bring others to the table.And I have to say I was so impressed when I was in South Africa this summer. I went to Cape Town. We – Eric and I went together, Ambassador was there, along with the SouthAfrican Minister of Health, who has been an exemplary leader. Let’s give the Minister of Health of South Africa a round of applause. (Applause.)He has worked so hard with a great team and with President Zuma’s full support to re ally take on the responsibility of country ownership and management. And when we were in the clinic in Cape Town, we saw some really impressive developments, including a more efficient way to dispense the drugs that are needed. And it was a great tribute to what the South African Government has been able to do in the last four years.Now finally – and this is really a call for the entire global health community – science and evidence must continue to guide our work. For our part, the United States will supp ort research on innovative technologies for prevention and treatment, such as microbicides and approaches that stave off opportunistic infections like TB. We will set clear, measurable benchmarks and monitor our progress toward them so we can focus our funding on what works. It is science that has brought us to this point; it is science that will allow us to finish this job.So with this blueprint, I firmly believe we have laid out a plan that every American president and secretary and Congress will want to build on. And I urge other countries to develop their own blueprints, because to reach and AIDS-free generation, we have to keep moving forward.So if we have any doubt about the importance of this work, just think of the joy and that big smile on Florenc e’s face when she told us about giving birth to her two healthyHIV-negative sons. And think of that same sense of joy rippling out across an entire generation, tens of millions of mothers and fathers whose children will be born free of this disease, who will not know the horror of AIDS. That is the world we are working for, and nothing could be more exciting, more inspiring, more deserving of our dedication than that.So I thank everyone across our government, because I know this was awhole-of-government effort. I thank you all for everything you have done, are doing, and will do to deliver on this important goal.And now it’s my great pleasure to welcome my friend and partner in the effort to the stage, the leader of UNAIDS, Michel Sidibe.

12月1日世界艾滋病日讲话稿

12月1日世界艾滋病日讲话稿

12月1日世界艾滋病日讲话稿12月1日世界艾滋病日讲话稿精选篇1亲爱的同学们:早上好!昨天是星期天,也就是10月16日,是世界粮食日。

也许,我们的一些小朋友已经不太愿意吃这些每天都能吃到的白米饭了,挑剔着,浪费着,缠着父母要去吃肯德基、麦当劳。

而就在昨天,今天,明天地球上仍有8.4亿人因吃不饱、失去尊严而直不起腰来,饥饿人口占世界总人口的比例高达13%左右。

在发展中国家,有五分之一的人无法获得足够的粮食。

在非洲地区,有三分之一的儿童长期营养不良。

全世界每年有600万学龄前儿童因饥饿而夭折。

目前全球约30个国家陷入粮食危机。

追溯人类的历史,饥饿总是伴随人类而存在。

自联合国粮农组织创立以来,不定期地进行了五次世界粮食调查。

1946年的第一次世界粮食调查得出的结论是:世界人口大约半数处于营养不良状态。

1952年的第二次世界粮食调查,所得出的结论是:总的营养水平比战前降低。

1963年的第三次世界粮食调查得出的结论是:发展中国家60%的人口处于营养不良状态。

1977年的第四次世界粮食调查得出的结论是:全世界有4.55亿人处于营养不良状态,尤其是儿童和妇女的营养不良更加严重。

1986年的第五次世界粮食调查的结果是:中国除外的112个发展中国家人口处于营养不良状态。

从这些调查得出的结论是:饥饿不但没有消除,反而在不断扩大。

联合国人口活动基金组织80年代初宣称,当时世界谷物产量可以养活60亿人口。

但就在同一时期,全世界人口只有45亿左右,可是却有4.5亿人挨饿。

1995年,世界人口增长到57亿,挨饿人口数字增加到10亿。

1972年,由于连续两年气候异常造成的世界性粮食歉收,加上前苏联大量抢购谷物,出现了世界性粮食危机,世界粮食形势更趋严重。

所以联合国粮食及农业组织大会关于世界粮食日的决议,正是在世界粮食供求矛盾日趋尖锐的背景下作出的。

1979年11月,第20届联合国粮食及农业组织大会决议确定,1981年10月16日为首届世界粮食日,此后每年的这一天都将作为世界粮食日。

《大而不倒》观后感以及七个核心问题的思考

《大而不倒》观后感以及七个核心问题的思考

《大而不倒》观后感以及七个核心问题的思考《大而不倒》观后感以及七个核心问题的思考《大而不倒》揭密了金融危机幕后的重重阴谋,也提供了很多在最动荡无序、最让人绞尽脑汁的特殊历史时期如何进行有效领导以渡过难关的案例。

在这场震惊世界的金融危机中,全球经济岌岌可危。

《大而不倒》不仅讲述了金融危机中金融机构发生的故事,更讲述了华尔街和华盛顿精英们的故事,这些精英们自认为拥有巨大的权力和无穷的手段,可以决定这场游戏的胜负,但他们看不到抑或不愿意接受这场游戏的真正结果:最糟糕的时刻正在到来。

这是一个关于冒险家们的故事:他们敢冒一切风险,并已承受着巨大的风险,但又固执地认为自己没有冒任何风险。

这也是一个关于华尔街文化的故事,现在这种文化已经渗透到了世界各国。

华尔街上人们总说:“还可以去做另一桩交易,还可以去打另一张牌”。

但是,在这场危机中,他们已经无牌可出了,这场金融危机真的是一场“想象力的失败”。

要真正理解华尔街各大投资银行之间及其与美国联邦储蓄委员会和美国财政部之间的关系,不得不从这场危机的根源——次贷危机讲起。

次贷危机是什么?是一场全球性的金融溃败,意味着这些你听过的名词,次级贷款,债务抵押债券,信贷市场冻结,以及信用违约掉期。

那么谁会受到影响?回答是所有人!这是怎样发生的?是这样的。

次贷危机拉拢了两群人,房主和投资者。

由于互联网泡沫破灭和911事件,美联储主席格林斯潘将利率降低到1个百分点来维持经济增长。

投资者说,一个百分点的回报率太低了,不用,谢了。

但从另一个角度讲,这意味着银行能够以1%的利率从美联储借款。

再加上贸易顺差从日本,中国,中东不断涌入,所以有大量的低息贷款,使银行借贷轻而易举,于是他们疯狂地使用“杠杆”。

“杠杆”是用借贷来扩大交易收益的手段,它是这样来操作的,某人的一笔普通交易,用自己的1万美元,买了一个箱子,然后以1万1千美元卖给其他人,净赚1千美元,这桩买卖还不错,但是如果用杠杆操作,一个有1万本金的人,会去再借99万美元,现在他手里有100万美元,可以买100个箱子,用掉那100万美元以后,再以110万卖给其他人,还掉99万贷款本金和1万利息,除开最初的1万,他净赚9万美元。

We understand that. (Applause.) Part of the reason we’ve come as far as we have is because so many people all over the world have not been satisfied that we have done enough. And I am here to set a goal for a generation that is free of AIDS. (Applause.) But first, let me say five words we have not been able to say for too long: “Welcome to the United States.” (Applause.) We are so pleased to have you all finally back here.早上好(掌声)–听我说,艾滋病大会没有人抗议是否会很奇怪?我们对此表示理解。

(掌声)我们之所以取得了今天的成果,其原因之一就是世界各地有许许多多的人认为我们做得还不够。

我今天将在这里宣布一项目标,要让下一代人免受艾滋病的侵害。

(掌声)但是,有一句话我们很久没有说了,所以我要先说一下:“欢迎来到美国。

”(掌声)大家最后能重新回到这里,我们非常高兴。

And I want to thank the leaders of the many countries who have joined us. I want to acknowledge my colleagues from the Administration and the Congress who have contributed so much to the fight against AIDS. But mostly, I want to salute all of the people who are here today who do the hard work that has given us the chance to stand here in 2012 and actually imagine a time when we will no longer be afflicted by this terrible epidemic and the great cost and suffering it has imposed for far too long. (Applause.) On behalf of all Americans, we thank you.我要向和我们一道努力的许多国家的领导人表示感谢。

我还要表彰我在美国行政部门的同事们以及美国国会议员们,他们为抗击艾滋病做出了重大贡献。

但最重要的是,我要向今天到场的各位表达敬意,由于你们的艰苦努力,我们有机会在2012年站在这里,展望彻底铲除这一可怕的流行病的那一天(掌声)。

在太长的时间里,这种疾病让我们付出了巨大的代价,给我们造成了巨大的痛苦。

我们代表全体美国人民感谢你们。

But I want to take a step back and think how far we have come since the last time this conference was held in the United States. It was in 1990 in San Francisco. Dr. Eric Goosby, who is now our Global AIDS Ambassador, ran a triage center there for all the HIV-positive people who became sick during the conference. They set up IV drug drips to rehydrate patients. They gave antibiotics to people with AIDS-related pneumonia. Many had to be hospitalized and a few died.然而,我要回顾和思考一下自从上次在美国召开这个大会以来我们所取得的进展。

那是1990年,在旧金山。

现在担任美国全球艾滋病事务协调员的埃里克·古斯比医生在会场上设立了一个诊断中心,为在大会期间生病的所有艾滋病毒感染者提供医疗服务。

他们为脱水的病人提供药物静脉滴注,向因艾滋病而感染肺炎的人发放抗生素。

有许多人被送往医院,还有几个人死亡。

Even at a time when the world’s response to the epidemic was sorely lacking, there were places and people of caring where people with AIDS found support. But tragically, there was so little that could be done medically. And thankfully, that has changed. Caring brought action, and action has made an impact.令人痛心的是,当时全世界对这种流行病几乎没有采取应对措施,即令如此,在一些地方还是有一些有善心的人为艾滋病患者提供支持。

但令人悲哀的是,医生们基本上束手无策。

有幸的是,这种情况已经改变。

关爱带来行动,行动产生了效果。

The ability to prevent and treat the disease has advanced beyond what many might have reasonably hoped 22 years ago. Y es, AIDS is still incurable, but it no longer has to be a death sentence. That is a tribute to the work of countless people around the world – many of whom are here at this conference, others who are no longer with us but whose contributions live on. And for decades, the United States has played a key role. Starting in the 1990s under the Clinton Administration, we began slowly to make HIV treatment drugs more affordable, we began to face the epidemic in our own country. And then in 2003, President Bush launched PEPFAR with strong bipartisan support from Congress and this country began treating millions of people.这种疾病的预防和治疗手段的进步可能是许多人在22年以前无法想象的。

不错,艾滋病依然是不治之症,但它不再意味着死刑。

对于世界各地无数为之辛勤努力的人们——其中有很多人今天在这里参加会议——这是一种赞誉。

还有一些人已经离开了我们,但他们的贡献继续使我们受益。

在过去几十年里,美国发挥了关键作用。

从1990年代克林顿政府开始,我们逐步降低了艾滋病治疗药物的价格,这种疾病也开始在美国传播。

2003年,在国会两党议员的强有力支持下,布什总统启动了"总统防治艾滋病紧急救援计划"( PEPFAR),美国开始为数百万人提供治疗。

Today under President Obama, we are building on this legacy. PEPFAR is shifting out of emergency mode and starting to build sustainable health systems that will help us finally win this fight and deliver an AIDS-free generation. It’s hard to ove rstate how sweeping or how crucial this change is. When President Obama took office, we knew that if we were going to win the fight against AIDS we could not keep treating it as an emergency. We had to fundamentally change the way we and our global partners did business.今天,在欧巴马总统领导下,我们发扬了这一传统。

PEPFAR不再是一项紧急救援计划,其重心转向建设可持续的医疗保健系统,以最终赢得这场战斗,使下一代人不再遭受艾滋病的侵害。
