美国拥有全世界唯一一个整合艾滋病病毒/艾滋病相关信息，以供决策人士、学术界人士和进行研究努力制止艾滋病病毒/艾滋病流行的医护人员使用的数据库。
华盛顿——美国人口普查局（U.S. Census Bureau）于7月21日公布了有关艾滋病病毒传播程度、艾滋病病例和艾滋病死亡人数的每年更新的互动式全球资料库。人口普查局所属的美国商务部（U.S. Commerce Department）表示，这个数据库是全世界同类数据库中最综合全面的。
商务部在7月21日发表的一篇博文中说，这个数据库始建于1987年，目前包含超过164,000个数据。在过去一年中，新增了大约5,900个新的估算数据。
这个数据库是由美国国际发展署（U.S. Agency for International Development）利用总统防治艾滋病紧急救援计划（PEPFAR）的拨款维护的。它是全世界唯一一个整合艾滋病病毒/艾滋病相关信息，以供决策人士、学术界人士和进行研究努力制止艾滋病病毒/艾滋病流行的医护人员使用的数据库。它长期以来定期发布的全球性成果和年度最新数据为全世界为数众多的从事艾滋病病毒/艾滋病的预防、护理和治疗的医疗界领袖提供了一个资源。
这个数据库包含一个数据图书馆，其出处来源超过14,900个，包括国际性的科学及医学期刊、各国的年度艾滋病病毒/艾滋病监测报告以及在国际会议上发表的论文及展示的海报。数据库增补的新数据中有28%来自中国，是增幅最大的一个国家。
这个由菜单驱动的操作系统让使用者能够查询全世界各个国家和领地的数据信息，并可以根据人口群体、地理分区（例如城市和农村）、年龄、性别以及从1960年代到2013年的具体年份查询。
大约12,000名代表——其中包括科学家、活动人士以及携带艾滋病病毒或患有艾滋病的人士——于7月20到25日在澳大利亚的墨尔本（Melbourne）集会，评估防治艾滋病的全球性努力所取得的进展，讨论在医疗研究领域向前推进的最佳途径，并就如何最有力地消除同艾滋病相关的羞耻感制定策略。

HIV/AIDS Resource Adds Data from More than 100 Countries
21 July 2014
The United States maintains the world’s only resource that consolidates HIV/AIDS information for policymakers, academics and health care professionals who conduct research to help end the HIV/AIDS epidemic.
Washington — The U.S. Census Bureau on July 21 released its annually updated interactive global resource on HIV prevalence, AIDS cases and AIDS deaths. The database is the most comprehensive resource of its kind in the world, according to the U.S. Commerce Department, which includes the Census Bureau.
First developed in 1987, the database now holds more than 164,000 statistics, the Commerce Department said in a July 21 blog post. This is an increase of approximately 5,900 new estimates in the last year.
The database is maintained with funding from the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), through the U.S. Agency for International Development. It is the world’s only resource that consolidates HIV/AIDS information for policymakers, academics and health care professionals who conduct research to help end the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Its longtime series of global findings and annual updates serve as a resource for the many health care leaders throughout the world working on HIV/AIDS prevention, care and treatment.
The tool consists of a library of statistics from more than 14,900 sources in international scientific and medical journals, individual countries’ annual HIV/AIDS surveillance reports, and papers and posters presented at international conferences. China represents 28 percent of the new records in the database, the largest increase by a single country.
The menu-driven access tool enables users to search for statistical information in countries and territories across the world, as well as by subpopulation, geographic subarea (such as urban and rural), age, sex and year, from the 1960s to 2013.
Some 12,000 delegates — including scientists, activists and people living with HIV/AIDS — are meeting July 20–25 in Melbourne, Australia, to assess the progress in the global fight against the disease, discuss the best paths forward in medical research, and strategize on how best to eliminate the stigma associated with the disease.
The Census Bureau’s interactive HIV/AIDS Surveillance Data Base can be found on the bureau’s website.
