Echoing a speech he made in Toronto in
June, Michel Kazatchkine, executive director of the Global Fund to Fight AIDS,
Tuberculosis and Malaria, again called
for the closure of compulsory detention centers, where drug users are
detained for months or years without trial or due process, under the guise of
drug treatment.
和7月在多伦多的演讲相呼应，全球抗击艾滋病、肺结核和疟疾基金会的首席执行官迈克尔·科茨特凯恩又一次呼吁关闭强制戒毒所。强制戒毒所以对药物治疗为名，在没有经过审讯或其他合适程序的情况下，将吸毒人员关押数月甚至数年。
New evidence that criminalization of drug use fuels HIV/AIDS
A special issue of the medical journal The Lancet,
produced for the International AIDS Conference, published a ground-breaking
series of articles and commentaries on the global HIV epidemic among people who
use drugs. Drawing on their comprehensive examination of hundreds of studies, the
journal’s editors called for an evidence- and rights-based response to HIV
among people who use drugs: “Criminalization
has reduced access to health care for people at risk of drug use…Put simply,
locking people up does not work.” The
journal’s articles provide evidence showing that the most neglected strategy, a
human rights-based approach, is the the most effective tool in reversing the
epidemic.
新证据表明，毒品利用有罪化加剧艾滋病传播
医学期刊《柳叶刀》上有期为国际艾滋病大会制作的专门话题，围绕话题发表了一系列有关全球艾滋病在吸毒者之间的感染情况的论文和评论，颇具开拓性。通过对这数百项研究进行综合考察，期刊的编辑呼吁，对吸毒人群艾滋病的回应应当有据且符合其正当权益，”有罪化，使得容易受到感染的吸毒人群接触健康治疗的途径减少……简单地说，将人锁起来是没有用的。”期刊的论文用相关证据说明，在对抗艾滋病时，最容易被人们忽视的方式，也就是以人为本的方式，其实是最有效的方式。
