An ambitious new plan, called the Integrated Global Action Plan for the Prevention and Control of Pneumonia and Diarrhea, launched this month by the World Health Organization and UNICEF, aims to step up existing interventions and pool global efforts, with the goal of reducing the number of deaths from pneumonia to less than three children per 1,000, and of diarrhea-related deaths to below one in 1,000. This would effectively end the preventable deaths of more than two million children every year.
本月，世界卫生组织和联合国儿童基金会发布了一个旨在加快已有干预措施、组织全球力量的雄心勃勃的新计划，即全球预防和控制肺炎和痢疾统一行动计划（Integrated Global Action Plan for the Prevention and Control of Pneumonia and Diarrhea），该计划的目标是使肺炎致儿童死亡率下降至千分之三以下，痢疾相关死亡率下降至千分之一以下。这将在事实上结束每年200万儿童死于可防疾病的历史。
