導讀:根據國家衛生委員會(NHC)周五的新聞發布會，2017年中國各高校共發生3077例新的艾滋病毒感染病例。
A total of 3,077 new cases of HIV infection took place in colleges and universities across China in 2017, according to the National Health Commission (NHC) at a press conference on Friday.
根據國家衛生委員會周五的新聞發布會，2017年中國各高校共發生3077例新的艾滋病毒感染病例。
Homosexual behavior is responsible for 81.8 percent of the new cases, added the NHC, due to students’ "poor awareness of protection, despite their high awareness of the disease."
國家衛生委員會補充說，81.8%的新病例是同性戀行為造成的，這是由于學生“盡管對疾病有很高的認識，但對保護的意識不強”。
"The rate of college students who have had sexual experiences using condoms is less than 40 percent," said Han Mengjie, director of Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
中國疾病預防控制中心主任韓孟杰說：“大學生使用安全套的比例不到40%?！?/p>
Han emphasized that the risk of infection still remains because college students, who are sexually active, might have unprotected sex because they are susceptible to external influences.
韓孟杰強調，感染的風險仍然存在，因為性活躍的大學生可能會發生無保護的性行為，因為他們容易受到外部影響。
Fifty-two colleges and universities across 11 provinces in China are equipped with vending machines that sell AIDS detection reagent for students to conduct self-examinations.
全國11個省的52所高校配備了自動售貨機，出售艾滋病檢測試劑，供學生自查。
China has been making progress in terms of prevention and control of AIDS, said Wang Bin, an NHC official in charge of disease prevention, during the Friday press conference.
在周五的新聞發布會上，中國國家衛生委員會負責疾病預防的官員王斌說，中國在預防和控制艾滋病方面取得了進展。
The spread of HIV through drug injections has been effectively controlled. In 2017, the number of people infected through drug abuse was 44.5 percent lower than that in 2012.
通過藥物注射傳播艾滋病毒的情況已得到有效控制。2017年，吸毒感染人數比2012年下降44.5%。
The mother-to-child transmission rate also reached its historically low point last year, dropping from 7.1 percent in 2012 to 4.9 percent in 2017, Wang said.
王斌說，去年母嬰傳播率也達到了歷史最低點，從2012年的7.1%下降到2017年的4.9%。
The infection rate of AIDS in China is about 0.09 percent, which is at a low epidemic level, according to the international standard.
我國艾滋病感染率約為0.09%，按照國際標準，處于較低的傳染水平。
However, despite the low infection rate, the absolute number of infection cases is still very large due to the huge population base of China, said Wu Zunyong, director of the National Center for AIDS/STI Control and Prevention at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
然而，盡管感染率很低，但由于中國龐大的人口基礎，感染病例的絕對數量仍然很大，中國疾病控制和預防中心國家艾滋病/性傳播感染控制和預防中心主任吳遵勇說。
Wang said at the press conference that the NHC will put more efforts into AIDS-related education, popularizing the use of condoms and promoting self-examinations.
王斌在記者招待會上說，國家衛生委員會將加大對艾滋病的教育力度，普及避孕套的使用，推廣自我檢查。
