Prepare for the test 1.Epidemic is spreading around the world
·More than 60 million people have been infected with HIV since the first AIDS patient was found in 1981. More than 20 million have died of AIDS, 3 million in 2003 alone. ·Some 38 million people are infected with HIV worldwide: 25 million in sub-Saharan Africa and 7.6 million in Asia, and 1.6 million in Eastern Europe and Central Asia.
(With 2.6 per cent of its 13 million people carrying HIV or AIDS, the UN believes Cambodia is the worst affected country in the Asia-Pacific region. (Issue 127, P5) 柬埔寨1,300万人口中2.6%的人携带爱滋病病毒或患上了爱滋病，联合国认为该国是亚太地区受害最严重的地区。) ·Only 20 per cent of AIDS patients worldwide are reached by HIV prevention programmes. Only about 7 per cent of AIDS patients in developing countries can receive treatment. ·About 700,000 infants worldwide are infected with HIV each year. ·About US$12 billion per year is estimated to be spent on the disease. ·There are 840,000 Chinese are infected with AIDS.
The truth behind HIV/AIDS transmission ·HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus, and is the virus that causes AIDS. HIV destroys certain blood cells that are crucial to the normal fun_ction of the immune system that defends the body against illness. ·AIDS stands for Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome. It occurs when the immune system is weakened by HIV to the point where a person develops a number of diseases or cancers. ·HIV does not survive well outside the body. It cannot be transmitted through casual, everyday contact. Mosquitoes and other insects do not transmit HIV. ·HIV can be spread by sexual contact with an infected person, by sharing needles or other injecting equipment or through transfusions of infected blood. ·Anti-retroviral（抗逆转录酶病毒的）drugs are currently available for the treatment of AIDS patients. These drugs inhibit（抑制） and delay the replication of HIV and immune system deterioration. ·Vaccine development is the best way of prevention. Some vaccines have been tested, but according to experts, an effective vaccine is still a number of years away. ·Condom(安全套) use is one of the least expensive and most cost-effective methods to prevent HIV transmission.

2.Access to drugs key to controlling AIDS (China Daily) Updated: 2004-06-28 11:23
One of the many challenges in addressing HIV/AIDS in China is working out ways to provide HIV carriers and AIDS patients with access to effective drugs.
Cao Bo, a research and testing staff at Zhong Xin Hospital in Shanghai's Xuhui District tests HIV/AIDs through monitoring the CD4 cell, the most important target cell for the HIV virus among human immune cells. The method Cao employs is considered to be of low cost, highly accurate and easy to use. [newsphoto/file]
At the present stage of development, cocktail treatment is considered the most effective way to mitigate the effects of HIV/AIDS. The treatment requires the administration of a combination AIDS drugs.
Cocktail treatments that use patented drugs made by foreign manufacturers can cost a patient between 30,000 yuan (US$3,600) and 40,000 yuan (US$4,800) a year.
The price is beyond the reach of a huge majority of HIV-carriers and AIDS patients in China.
In contrast, domestically made generic treatments cost the patient about 3,500 yuan (US$423) per year.
. But experts say the domestic drugs are not as effective and can have strong side effects.
3. Fighting HIV/AIDS a long-term task Edmund Settle ?Updated: 2004-09-15 08:54 (China Daily)
China has an estimated 840,000 HIV/AIDS cases. As of late 2003, only 7.4 per cent, or 62,159, had been tested and confirmed to be HIV-positive. China's national HIV prevalence（流行） rate remains low at 0.1 per cent, while infections are increasing at an average annual rate of 30 per cent.
A recent survey revealed that while 93 per cent of Chinese have heard of AIDS, only 8.7 per cent have sufficient knowledge about AIDS transmission and prevention.
To increase the general population's general knowledge of HIV/AIDS, China should include two additions to improve its current awareness campaigns and to further sustain the distribution of HIV/AIDS information.
Television should be regularly used to promote condom use among the general population. Last December, China's first and only televised condom public service announcement (PSA) was not followed up with additional PSAs.
If HIV/AIDS awareness PSAs are not continuously aired throughout the year, they will fail to have any measurable impact…..
4. Jiangsu intensifies AIDS prevention By Bao Xinyan (China Daily) Updated: 2004-08-02 09:34
NANJING: The HIV/AIDS monitoring network in East China's Jiangsu Province will be further strengthened to ensure that more monitoring sites are set up in hospitals and disease control and prevention centres.
"Although the epidemic situation of AIDS in the province is not serious now, the disease is spreading at a very fast speed. At this critical moment, we should spare no effort in carrying out strong measures to keep AIDS under control," Provincial Vice-Governor Wang Zhan emphasized.
Monitoring the AIDS epidemic is the most effective means of AIDS control and prevention, he said.
A basic AIDS monitoring and examination network has already been established in the province.
It has been up and running for five years and has examined about 3.1 million high-risk people, including drug addicts, blood sellers, prostitutes and their clients.
AIDS control and prevention publicity and education should be given greater importance, Wang said, especially for high-risk people and teenagers.
Education department officials said AIDS control and prevention education will be put into the provincial middle school curriculum this autumn.
There must be six classes on AIDS control and prevention in junior high schools every term, and four classes in senior high schools.
And in colleges and universities, elective courses or lectures on such topics should be provided for students, no less than two every term.
Wang also indicated that the government departments should act to prevent dangerous behaviour which may cause AIDS infection and help AIDS patients, HIV carriers and their relatives.
Examples of this work are the popularization of condoms, providing methadone treatment for drug addicts and setting up special funds for AIDS prevention.
Official statistics show that since 1991, when the first HIV carrier was found in Jiangsu Province, a total of 537 HIV carriers have been found in the province, among whom 100 are AIDS patients.
5.Real life hero
ACTION movie star Jackie Chan set off on an another unusual mission (使命) last week. But this time, there was no stylish kungfu, unbelievable stunts (绝技) or physical humour. On screen, Chan is often seen saving the world. Now, as a goodwill ambassador (亲善大使) for the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF, 联合国儿童基金会) and AIDS agency UNAIDS, he will offer real-life hope to children in war-troubled Cambodia (柬埔寨). "His huge popularity in Asia will raise awareness of the region's fight against the killer virus (病毒) and help UNICEF in its work for children," said UNICEF director Carol Bellamy.
Just three days after his appointment (任命) on April 26, Chan started work with a visit to the southeast Asian country. He had dinner with young HIV-positive people (艾滋病病毒携带者) to "stop the senseless discrimination (歧视) against HIV/AIDS sufferers". With 2.6 per cent of its 13 million people carrying HIV or AIDS, the UN believes Cambodia is the worst affected country in the Asia-Pacific region. But AIDS is not the only problem. Following a 30 year civil war which ended in 1998, Cambodia is also one of the world's most heavily mined (埋有地雷的) countries. It is thought that 45,000 people, most of them children, have lost arms or legs as result of mine explosions. "I always think I am so lucky. So, now it's time to give something back," Chan said. "Whatever I can do, I promise I'll do it." Although he has come a long way from his poor childhood in Hong Kong, Chan hasn't forgotten the suffering of others. He spends a lot of time and money supporting worthwhile causes (事业) and has set up several of his own projects. The Jackie Chan Charitable Foundation, which operates in Hong Kong and Japan, provides scholarships (奖学金) to poor students and assists injured performers and their families. Hong Kong also benefits from the Jackie Chan Youth Centre. Meanwhile, the Jackie Chan Sends Warmth Movement provides winter coats for the elderly and homeless. Whether it was the terrible floods in southern China in 1998 or the earthquake that hit Xinjiang in 2003, one of the movie star's projects was always ready to help. "Giving is a virtue of life — life is a pleasure of giving," he said.
