2、and gentlemen: as we gather heretoday, the people of liberia and sierra leone and guinea are in crisis. as secretary-general banand dr. chan have already indicated, the ebola virus is spreading at alarming speed.thousands of men, women and children have died. thousands more are infected. ifunchecked

3、, this epidemic could kill hundreds of thousands of people in the coming months.hundreds of thousands. ebola is a horrific disease. its wiping out entire families. it has turned simple acts of love andcomfort and kindness - like holding a sick friends hand, or embracing a dying child - intopotential

4、ly fatal acts. if ever there were a public health emergency deserving an urgent,strong and coordinated international response, this is it. but this is also more than a health crisis. this is a growing threat to regional and globalsecurity. in liberia, in guinea, in sierra leone, public health system

5、s have collapsed. economicgrowth is slowing dramatically. if this epidemic is not stopped, this disease could cause ahumanitarian catastrophe across the region. and in an era where regional crises can quicklybecome global threats, stopping ebola is in the interest of all of us. the courageous men an

6、d women fighting on the front lines of this disease have told us whatthey need. they need more beds, they need more supplies, they need more health workers, andthey need all of this as fast as possible. right now, patients are being left to die in the streetsbecause theres nowhere to put them and th

7、eres nobody to help them. one health worker insierra leone compared fighting this outbreak to “fighting a forest fire with spray bottles.” butwith our help, they can put out the blaze. last week, i visited the centers for disease control and prevention, which is mounting thelargest international res

8、ponse in its history. i said that the world could count on america tolead, and that we will provide the capabilities that only we have, and mobilize the world the waywe have done in the past in crises of similar magnitude. and i announced that, in additionto the civilian response, the united states

9、would establish a military command in liberia tosupport civilian efforts across the region. today, that command is up and it is running. our commander is on the ground in monrovia,and our teams are working as fast as they can to move in personnel, equipment and supplies.were working with senegal to

10、stand up an air bridge to get health workers and medicalsupplies into west africa faster. were setting up a field hospital, which will be staffed bypersonnel from the u.s. public health service, and a training facility, where were gettingready to train thousands of health workers from around the wor

11、ld. were distributing suppliesand information kits to hundreds of thousands of families so they can better protectthemselves. and together with our partners, well quickly build new treatment units acrossliberia, guinea and sierra leone, where thousands will be able to receive care. meanwhile, in jus

12、t the past week, more countries and organizations have stepped up theirefforts - and so has the united nations. mr. secretary-general, the new un mission for ebolaemergency response that you announced last week will bring all of the u.n.s resources tobear in fighting the epidemic. we thank you for y

13、our leadership. so this is all progress, and it is encouraging. but i want us to be clear: we are not moving fastenough. we are not doing enough. right now, everybody has the best of intentions, but peopleare not putting in the kinds of resources that are necessary to put a stop to this epidemic.the

14、re is still a significant gap between where we are and where we need to be. we know fromexperience that the response to an outbreak of this magnitude has to be fast and it has to besustained. its a marathon, but you have to run it like a sprint. and thats only possible ifeverybody chips in, if every

15、 nation and every organization takes this seriously. everybody herehas to do more. international organizations have to move faster, and cut through red tape and mobilize partnerson the ground as only they can. more nations need to contribute critical assets andcapabilities - whether it is air transp

16、ort, or medical evacuation, or health care workers, orequipment, or treatment. more foundations can tap into the networks of support that theyhave, to raise funds and awareness. more businesses, especially those who already have apresence in the region, can quickly provide their own expertise and re

17、sources, from access tocritical supply chains to telecommunications. and more citizens - of all nations - can educatethemselves on this crisis, contribute to relief efforts, and call on their leaders to act. soeverybody can do something. thats why were here today. and even as we meet the urgent thre

18、at of ebola, its clear that our nations have to do more toprevent, detect and respond to future biological threats - before they erupt into full-blowncrises. tomorrow, in washington, ill host 44 nations to advance our global health securityagenda, and we are interested in working with any country th

19、at shares this commitment. just to emphasize this issue of speed again. when i was down at the cdc - and perhaps thishas already been discussed, but i want to emphasize this - the outbreak is such where at thispoint more people will die. but the slope of the curve, how fast we can arrest the spread

20、ofthis disease, how quickly we can contain it is within our control. and if we move fast, even ifimperfectly, then that could mean the difference between 10,000, 20,000, 30,000 deathsversus hundreds of thousands or even a million deaths. so this is not one where there should bea lot of wrangling and

21、 people waiting to see who else is doing what. everybody has got to movefast in order for us to make a difference. and if we do, well save hundreds of thousands of lives. stopping ebola is a priority for the united states. ive said that this is as important a nationalsecurity priority for my team as

22、 anything else thats out there. well do our part. we willcontinue to lead, but this has to be a priority for everybody else. we cannot do this alone. wedont have the capacity to do all of this by ourselves. we dont have enough health workers byourselves. we can build the infrastructure and the archi

23、tecture to get help in, but were goingto need others to contribute. to my fellow leaders from liberia, sierra leone and guinea, to the people of west africa, to theheroic health workers who are on the ground as we speak, in some cases, putting themselvesat risk - i want you to know that you are not

24、alone. were working urgently to get you the helpyou need. and we will not stop, we will not relent until we halt this epidemic once and for all. so i want to thank all of you for the efforts that are made. but i hope that im properlycommunicating a sense of urgency here. do not stand by, thinking th

25、at somehow, because ofwhat weve done, that its taken care of. its not. and if we dont take care of this now we aregoing to see fallout effects and secondary effects from this that will have ramifications for a longtime, above and beyond the lives that will have been lost. i urge all of you, particul

26、arly those who have direct access to your heads of state, to make surethat they are making this a top priority in the next several weeks and months. thank you very much. 第2篇聯(lián)合國秘書長潘基文在國際埃博拉恢復(fù)會(huì)議英語演講稿 thank you, helen clark, administrator of undp, for moderating this very important meeting. i would lik

28、rgaret chan, director general of the who for herleadership. thank you all ministers and dignitaries who have taken such very valuable time to be with us,to be with the people of africa particularly affected by ebola. i think we can overcome this one, and i think we are now overcoming it but we have

29、to gountil the end, until we see the last patient cured and there will be no further cases. i would also like to thank the world bank president, and the imf managing director and themany international and regional development banks, including the african development bankand the islamic development b

30、ank, and the european union. it is a great honour to have you. thank you for accepting my invitation to participate and toshow your solidarity for the people affected by this ebola virus. excellence, mesdames et messieurs, merci de participer cette confrence internationale sur le relvement aprs lebo

31、la. la tche qui nous attend est immense: il sagit de concrtiser nos promesses de solidaritconcrete, tourns vers laction. je vous demande de vous joindre moi pour apporter un soutien durable aux populations despays touchs par lebola. let me begin by thanking the many donors who have come together, al

32、ong with governments,civil society organizations, national and international responders, development banks andfoundations, as part of a broad-based global coalition to support the nationally-led responseefforts. i applaud the african union and its plan to convene an international conference on afric

33、asfight against ebola later this month in malabo. i commend the african union for galvanizing african leaders, businesses and communities insolidarity with the affected countries. this regional unity has been essential to bringing theoutbreak under control and will be critical to effective recovery.

34、 i commend the morethan 800 african volunteers who deployed through the au ebola support mechanism. i also thank the countries that answered my call to send in logistical support, medical teams,crisis managers and aid for safe and dignified burials. thousands of women and men from within and outside

35、 the countries put their lives on the lineto slow the advance of this disease. thanks to these partners and too many others to name we have come a long way incontaining the outbreak. the general assembly took decisive action, endorsing the un mission for ebola emergencyresponse unmeer. i thank his e

36、xcellency sam kutesa, president of the general assembly, forhis continued leadership in keeping the membership seized with this issue. as unmeer prepares to close next month, the un will maintain the dedicated high-levelleadership under who together with the un country teams, in its support to help

37、the affectedcountries get to zero. the strategy to end the outbreak is working but the final stretch of the response remainsparticularly challenging. cases in guinea and sierra leone have been reduced considerably. the response is being fine-tuned to focus on increasing engagement, awareness and con

38、tact tracing in the remainingaffected communities. new cases in liberia show the need for continued vigilance given the regional risks. theliberian governments proactive actions also underscore how the response strategy haseffectively reinforced national capacities and knowledge to be activated for

39、future outbreaks. but the impacts of the ebola crisis have been far-reaching and much work is needed to supportthe countries. the outbreak has eroded progress on peace and development. it has disrupted health andsocial services. many major economic sectors have been affected: agriculture, mining, tr

40、ade, tourism,transport, fisheries and livestock. the functioning of schools, hospitals and other publicinfrastructure has suffered. all of these disruptions have had a negative impact on the economies of all three countries which were, prior to the ebola outbreak, on a positive growth trajectory. th

41、is negative impact on economies, livelihoods and more importantly lives demands thatthe global community continues to prioritize recovery from ebola even long after the crisissubsides. this will be essential to “stay at zero” in order to strengthen resilience towithstand future shocks. your continue

42、d generosity will help the affected countries carry out their plans for recoveryover the next two years. our shared goal is to build back stronger, safer and more resilient capacities for preventionand response. that means access to health services everywhere not just in capitals. it meanshealth ser

43、vices equipped to not only respond to extraordinary outbreaks like ebola, but toaddress malaria, cholera and other common ailments. investing in guinea, sierra leone and liberia will yield global dividends in preventing localoutbreaks from becoming national emergencies and regional pandemics. that i

44、s why today is about more than speeches and pledges it is a chance to forge apartnership for a better future a future that is full of opportunity and free of ebola. our task is also to learn from our shortcomings and translate the lessons learned from this crisisin building back better. to do anything less would compound the tragedy. i particularly welcome whos lessons learned process and its plans for reform. just this week,who welcomed the report from the independent ebola interim assessment panel. who hasindicated that it is a
