WHO Chief Says World Faces Three Growing Threats (2/2)

The W.H.O. chief said climate change will also hit the poor the hardest but, to a greater or lesser extent, will affect all countries. She said more droughts, floods and storms mean greater demands for humanitarian aid. And she warned it will mean a growing number of environmental refugees.

And, thirdly, Doctor Chan warned of a continued threat of pandemic influenza. She said it would be very unwise for governments not to prepare. She urged delegates to support a W.H.O. resolution on the sharing of influenza viruses for research and to make vaccines widely available.

    The W.H.O. this week also released its World Health Statistics report for two thousand eight. Agency officials say fewer people are dying of infectious diseases. In more and more countries, they say, the chief causes of death are conditions such as heart disease and stroke.

    By two thousand thirty, non-communicable conditions are expected to cause more than three-fourths of all deaths. Almost one-third of all deaths will result from cancer, heart disease and traffic accidents. The number one cause of preventable deaths is tobacco. More than eight million tobacco-related deaths are predicted in two thousand thirty -- eighty percent of them in developing countries.

    世界卫生组织总干事说气候变化对贫民的打击最大,但实际上对世界各地都有或多或少的影响。她说,日渐增多的干旱,洪涝和暴风雨现象意味着需要更多的人道主义援助。她同时提醒这也意味着因环境而受难的灾民会越来越多。

    第三,陈博士告诫应注意大规模流感的持续威胁。她说政府若不预防是非常不明智的。她督促代表支持一项关于在研究中共享流感病毒并可使更多地区获得疫苗的WHO决议。

    世卫组织本周也发布了2008年的世界卫生统计报告。机构官员说死于传染病的人数在减少。在越来越多的国家,他们说,主要的死因是诸如心脏病,中风等疾病。

    到2030年,非传染病导致的死亡人数预计将超过总死亡人数的四分之三。接近三分之一的总死亡人口将死于癌症,心脏病和交通事故。排名第一的可预防死因是吸烟。预计在2030年,吸烟导致的死亡人数将会超过八百万,其中百分之八十来自发展中国家。
