en-us	All over the world, the COVID-19 pandemic is causing significant loss of life, disrupting livelihoods, and threatening the recent advances in health and progress towards global development goals highlighted in the 2020 World Health Statistics published by the World Health Organization (WHO) today. 
zh-cn	世界卫生组织（世卫组织）今天发布的《2020年世界卫生统计》强调了最近在卫生领域以及全球发展目标方面取得的进展。然而，COVID-19大流行现正在世界各地造成重大生命损失，破坏人们的生计，使迄今取得的进展受到威胁。 

en-us	“The good news is that people around the world are living longer and healthier lives. 
zh-cn	世卫组织总干事谭德塞博士说：“好消息是，世界各地的人们正在日益健康长寿。

en-us	The bad news is the rate of progress is too slow to meet the Sustainable Development Goals and will be further thrown off track by COVID-19,” said Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, WHO Director-General. 
zh-cn	而坏消息是进展速度太慢，无法实现可持续发展目标，并且可能因COVID-19而进一步偏离轨道”。 

en-us	“The pandemic highlights the urgent need for all countries to invest in strong health systems and primary health care, as the best defense against outbreaks like COVID-19, and against the many other health threats that people around the world face every day. 
zh-cn	“这一大流行病突出表明，所有国家都迫切需要投资建设强大的卫生系统和初级卫生保健服务，这是抵御COVID-19等疫情以及世界各地人们每天面临的许多其他健康威胁的最佳手段。

en-us	Health systems and health security are two sides of the same coin.” 
zh-cn	卫生系统和卫生安全是密不可分的两方面”。 

en-us	WHO’s World Health Statistics — an annual check-up on the world’s health — reports progress against a series of key health and health service indicators, revealing some important lessons in terms of progress made towards the Sustainable Development Goals and gaps to fill. 
zh-cn	世卫组织编制的《世界卫生统计》是对世界卫生状况的年度检查，它对照一系列关键的健康和卫生服务指标报告进展情况，并通过可持续发展目标的实现进展和需要弥补的差距揭示一些重要的经验教训。 

en-us	Life expectancy and healthy life expectancy have increased, but unequally. 
zh-cn	预期寿命和健康预期寿命有所增加，但并不均衡。

en-us	The biggest gains were reported in low-income countries, which saw life expectancy rise 21% or 11 years between 2000 and 2016 (compared with an increase of 4% or 3 years in higher income countries). 
zh-cn	据报告，这方面进展最大的是低收入国家，2000年至2016年期间，这些国家的预期寿命提高了21%，即11岁（相比之下，高收入国家的预期寿命仅提高了4%，即3岁）。 

en-us	One driver of progress in lower-income countries was improved access to services to prevent and treat HIV, malaria and tuberculosis, as well as a number of neglected tropical diseases such as guinea worm. 
zh-cn	推动低收入国家取得进展的一个因素是扩大了对艾滋病、疟疾和结核病以及一些被忽视的热带病（如几内亚线虫病）的预防和治疗服务的获取机会。

en-us	Another was better maternal and child healthcare, which led to a halving of child mortality between 2000 and 2018. 
zh-cn	另一个因素是改善了妇幼卫生保健，致使2000年至2018年期间儿童死亡率降低了一半。 

en-us	But in a number of areas, progress has been stalling. 
zh-cn	但在许多领域，进展一直停滞不前。

en-us	Immunization coverage has barely increased in recent years, and there are fears that malaria gains may be reversed. 
zh-cn	近年来，免疫覆盖率几乎没有提高，令人担心疟疾防治方面进展可能会逆转。

en-us	And there is an overall shortage of services within and outside the health system to prevent and treat noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) such as cancer, diabetes, heart and lung disease, and stroke. 
zh-cn	而且卫生系统内外在预防和治疗癌症、糖尿病、心肺疾病和中风等非传染性疾病方面服务全面不足。

en-us	In 2016, 71 per cent of all deaths worldwide were attributable to NCDs, with the majority of the 15 million premature deaths (85%) occurring in low and middle-income countries. 
zh-cn	2016年，全世界71%的死亡可归因于非传染性疾病，1500万例过早死亡中大多数（85%）发生在低收入和中等收入国家。 

en-us	This uneven progress broadly mirrors inequalities in access to quality health services. 
zh-cn	这种不均衡的进展大体可反映出获得优质卫生服务方面的不平等。

en-us	Only between one third and one half the world’s population was able to obtain essential health services in 2017. 
zh-cn	2017年，只有三分之一至一半世界人口能够获得基本卫生服务。

en-us	Service coverage in low- and middle-income countries remains well below coverage in wealthier ones; as do health workforce densities. 
zh-cn	低收入和中等收入国家的服务覆盖范围与卫生人力密度一样都仍然远远低于富裕国家。

en-us	In more than 40% of all countries, there are fewer than 10 medical doctors per 10 000 people. 
zh-cn	40%多的国家每万人口中只有不到10名医生。

en-us	Over 55% of countries have fewer than 40 nursing and midwifery personnel per 10 000 people.  
zh-cn	55%以上的国家每万人口拥有不到40名护理和助产人员。 

en-us	The inability to pay for healthcare is another major challenge for many. 
zh-cn	无力支付医疗费用是许多人面临的另一项重大挑战。

en-us	On current trends, WHO estimates that this year, 2020, approximately 1 billion people (almost 13 per cent of the global population) will be spending at least 10% of their household budgets on health care. 
zh-cn	根据目前趋势，世卫组织估计，今年，即2020年，将有近10亿人（几乎占全球人口的13%）会把至少10%的家庭预算用于卫生保健。

en-us	The majority of these people live in lower middle-income countries. 
zh-cn	这些人大多数生活在中等偏下收入国家。 

en-us	“The COVID-19 pandemic highlights the need to protect people from health emergencies, 
zh-cn	世卫组织助理总干事Samira Asma博士说：“COVID-19大流行突出表明，必须保护人们免受突发卫生事件的影响，

en-us	as well as to promote universal health coverage and healthier populations to keep people from needing health services through multisecotral interventions like improving basic hygiene and sanitation,” said Dr Samira Asma, Assistant Director General at WHO. 
zh-cn	而且要通过多部门干预措施，如改善基本的个人卫生和环境卫生等，来促进全民健康覆盖并改善人口健康，减少人们对卫生服务的需求”。 

en-us	In 2017, more than half (55%) of the global population was estimated to lack access to safely-managed sanitation services, and more than one quarter (29%) lacked safely-managed drinking water. 
zh-cn	2017年，估计全球一半以上人口（55%）缺乏得到安全管理的环境卫生服务，四分之一以上人口（29%）缺乏得到安全管理的饮用水。

en-us	In the same year, two in five households globally (40%) lacked basic handwashing facilities with soap and water in their home.  
zh-cn	同年，全球五分之二的家庭（40%）缺乏基本洗手设施，家中没有肥皂和水。 

en-us	The World Health Statistics also highlight the need for stronger data and health information systems. 
zh-cn	《世界卫生统计》还强调需要更可靠的数据和卫生信息系统。

en-us	Uneven capacities to collect and use accurate, timely, and comparable health statistics, undermining countries’ ability to understand population health trends, develop appropriate policies, allocate resources and prioritize interventions.  
zh-cn	收集和使用准确、及时且可比的卫生统计数据的能力参差不齐，削弱了低收入国家在了解人口健康趋势、制定适当政策、分配资源和注重干预方面的能力。 

en-us	For almost a fifth of countries, over half of the key indicators have no recent primary or direct underlying data, another major challenge in enabling countries to prepare for, prevent and respond to health emergencies such as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. 
zh-cn	对于近五分之一的国家而言，半数以上关键指标不具备最新的原始或直接基础数据，这是影响国家防范、预防和应对突发卫生事件（如当前的COVID-19大流行）的另一个重大挑战。

en-us	WHO is therefore supporting countries in strengthening surveillance and data and health information systems so they can measure their status and manage improvements.   
zh-cn	因此，世卫组织正在支持各国加强监测系统以及数据和卫生信息系统，使其能够衡量自身状况并设法做出改进。 

en-us	“The message from this report is clear: as the world battles the most serious pandemic in 100 years, just a decade away from the SDG deadline, 
zh-cn	Asma补充指出：“这份报告传达了明确的信息：世界现在正与百年来最严重的大流行病作斗争，而此时距离实现可持续发展目标的最后期限仅剩下10年时间，

en-us	we must act together to strengthen primary health care and focus on the most vulnerable among us in order to eliminate the gross inequalities that dictate who lives a long, healthy life and who doesn’t,” added Asma. 
zh-cn	我们必须一起采取行动，加强初级卫生保健，关注我们当中最脆弱的人群，以消除影响人们健康长寿的严重不平等现象。

en-us	“We will only succeed in doing this by helping countries to improve their data and health information systems.” 
zh-cn	要成功做到这一点，就必须帮助各国改善其数据和卫生信息系统”。
