華專家卑詩取經 防治愛滋

【明報專訊】中國疾病預防控制中心一行六名研究人員昨日首次到訪卑詩省愛滋病毒/愛滋病卓越研究中心(簡稱BC-CFE),開始為期兩日的交流行程,進一步學習本省「治療如同預防(Treatment as Prevention)」的對抗愛滋病方法。BC-CFE總監蒙塔納(Julio Montaner)表示,希望本國聯邦政府盡快考慮在全國範圍內推廣「治療如同預防」模式。

首次帶隊到訪本省的中國疾病預防控制中心副研究員、性病愛滋病預防控制中心辦公室副主任米國棟博士表示,中國於2011年宣布實施「卑詩製造」的「治療如同預防」愛滋病對抗方法,是全球首個將卑詩模式作為全國範圍愛滋病政策的國家。2013年11月,中國與省長簡蕙芝簽署「治療如同預防」愛滋病對抗方法在中國實施的諒解備忘錄,建立為期3年的愛滋病合作項目,中國每年將派遣2至3名愛滋病研究領域的醫護人員到本省學習,共同研究。

米國棟強調,中國目前有逾78萬人攜帶愛滋病毒,平均每年新確診愛滋病人為2.6萬人,在引入「治療如同預防」愛滋病對抗方法後,中國政府平均每年投入30億元人民幣為病人提供免費診斷、教育、治療、藥物,在夫妻兩人有一人感染愛滋病的普通家庭中,已將愛滋病再擴散、再感染及向下一代傳播機率減低至10%以下,有效率超6成。
