在第二十一个世界艾滋病日前夕，孟林和小枫两名艾滋病病毒感染者荣获贝利马丁奖，这是艾滋病病毒感染者首次获此奖项。
防治艾滋病，需要感染者的参与。对感染者的表彰，不仅仅是对他们防艾工作的肯定，也是希望更多人消除对艾滋病的歧视。
事实证明，艾滋病的传播、蔓延与防治不是一个简单的医学问题，而是一个复杂的社会问题。一位专家就曾非常形象地指出，艾滋病在中国地图上最初只是一个小点，后来就变成一片，最后竟然在地图上都找不到一块空白。
多年来，我国致力于宣传普及艾滋知识并取得了明显的成效，但因缺乏艾滋知识而造成的歧视还没有彻底消除。日前，一项在中国6个城市对6000多人进行的艾滋知识调查报告显示：有超过48%的受访者认为有可能通过蚊虫叮咬感染艾滋病病毒。无知加剧了人们“恐艾”的心理，加重了偏见和歧视，极大地影响着艾滋病预防工作的有效开展。一些感染者因害怕社会的歧视，不敢公开身份，无法进行有效干预，可能造成艾滋病在更大范围滋生和蔓延。
全球的实践证明，消除歧视是遏制艾滋的一个良方。只有全社会携起手来，对艾滋病人多一点关爱，少一点冷漠，艾滋病才能得到有效控制。
