华盛顿讯—— 特朗普总统周一签署行政令，将在美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）内设立女性健康部门，并成立白宫女性健康特别工作组。
第一夫人梅拉尼娅·特朗普陪同出席了在玫瑰园举行的签署仪式，她表示，该行政令将围绕五大目标推进相关工作：
- 定向拨付研究资金，用于研发对女性健康构成不成比例影响的疾病的治疗方法。
- 利用人工智能加快医学发现进程。
- 加速推出针对女性的新型治疗药物。
- 让女性能够以可负担的价格获得医学突破成果。
- 减少关于女性健康话题的禁忌感。
“这是美国女性的变革性时刻，”第一夫人说道。“从今天起，我们将改变女性健康的现状。前辈们为女性权利而战，我们这一代人将致力于研发治疗方法，确保女性能够健康地尽享人生。”
特朗普总统将设立NIH女性健康部门的创意归功于第一夫人。总统签署行政令后，第一夫人也在文件上签了名，不过她的签名不具备法律效力。
“试想一下，设立一个女性健康部门，”特朗普说道。“谁会不愿意设立这样一个部门呢？梅拉尼娅当时说，‘他们现在还没有这个部门。’”

特朗普总统表示，美国民众很快就会听到“我们正在推进的令人难以置信的举措”，以确保女性获得所需的医疗服务，但他并未透露具体细节。目前尚不清楚将有多少资金用于女性健康研究、治疗药物加速研发，以及降低女性获得医学突破成果的成本。
此次宣布成立女性健康部门之际，恰逢白宫办公厅主任苏西·怀尔斯与乳腺癌抗争之后。她在今年3月确诊后继续履职，并于9月宣布自己已痊愈。
特朗普总统在周一的宣布仪式上特别提到了怀尔斯，称她“非常出色”。
“我不知道苏西是否希望大家提起这件事，但正如各位所知，苏西最近刚打赢了一场与强劲对手——乳腺癌的战斗，”总统说道。“过程并不容易。我们陪她一起度过了难关，她也挺了过来，她非常坚强。她是一位了不起的斗士，和我们的第一夫人一样，她深切关心改善美国女性的健康状况。”

白宫发言人艾莉森·舒斯特表示，白宫特别工作组“将致力于填补关键的研究空白，加强女性在人生各个阶段的医疗护理服务，重点关注影响她们的一些最普遍的健康问题”。

Trump signs executive order creating women’s health division within NIH

Washington— President Trump on Monday signed an executive order creating a women’s health division within the National Institutes of Health and a White House Women’s Health Task Force.
First lady Melania Trump joined him for a signing ceremony in the Rose Garden and said the executive order will make progress on five objectives:
- Directing research funding to find cures that disproportionately affect women.
- Using artificial intelligence to speed up medical discoveries.
- Accelerating new therapeutics for women.
- Delivering medical breakthroughs for women at an affordable price.
- Making conversations about women’s health less taboo.
“This is a transformative moment for women in America,” the first lady said. “Beginning today, we will change the reality of women’s health. Previous generations fought for women’s rights. Our generation will fight to discover the cures that will ensure a woman can live her life in health and to the fullest.”
Mr. Trump credited the first lady with conceiving the idea for a women’s health division within NIH. The first lady added her signature to the executive order after the president did, although her signature has no legal weight.
“Think of it, a women’s health division,” Mr. Trump said. “Who the hell wouldn’t have a women’s health division? Melania said, ‘They don’t have it.’”

The president said Americans will soon hear about “incredible things that we’re doing” to get women the care they need, although he didn’t offer specifics. It’s not yet clear how much funding will be directed toward research funding, accelerating therapeutics, or making medical breakthroughs more affordable for women.
The women’s health announcement comes on the heels of White House chief of staff Susie Wiles’s battle with breast cancer. She continued in the job after her March diagnosis, and in September announced she is cancer-free.
Mr. Trump gave a shout-out to Wiles during Monday’s announcement, calling her “fantastic.”
“I don’t know if Susie wants this brought up, but as many of you know, Susie recently won her battle against a very tough opponent, breast cancer,” the president said. “It wasn’t easy. We went through it, we got her through it, and she got through it, and she’s tough. But she’s a tremendous fighter and much like our first lady, she cares deeply about improving the health of American women.”

White House spokeswoman Allison Schuster said the White House task force “will work to close critical research gaps and strengthen care for women across all stages of life, targeting some of the most widespread health conditions affecting them.”
