28. 2003 年严重急性呼吸系统综合症(SARS)疫情之后于 2005 年对《国际卫生条例》的修订是适时和有预见性的。与之前限制更多的版本不同，这一版的《条例》授予世卫组织更多权力来采取行动，在充分尊重人权的同时协调全球应对传86 大会第 2625 (XXV)号决议。87 《联合国宪章》第五十五条和第五十六条；《经济社会文化权利国际公约》第二条第一款；A/HRC/35/35，附件，第 2 条(c)项；在大流行病的背景下，另见《国际卫生条例》第三、第四十三和第四十四条。88 《国际卫生条例》，第 6 页。89 《国际卫生条例》，第四十四条。90 另见人权理事会第 44/2 号决议。染病爆发的措施，并据此执行国际团结的职责。91 为了最大限度地提供防治传染病所需的信息，《条例》授权世卫组织从国家和非国家行为者处获取信息，并可要求各国提供进一步的信息，同时作为一项最大限度的法律，对所允许的权利和国际贸易以及交通规定了最严格的限制。《条例》第三条申明，其执行应充分尊重人的尊严、人权和基本自由，要求以干扰性最小的方式限制人权(第三十一条和第四十三条)。92
28. The revision of the International Health Regulations in 2005, after the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemic in 2003, was opportune and prescient. Unlike its earlier more restrictive versions, the current Regulations better empower WHO to act to coordinate global responses to infectious disease outbreaks, while fully respecting human rights, and to do so as a function of international solidarity.91 To maximize the flow of information necessary to combat infectious diseases, the Regulations mandate WHO to receive information from State and non-State actors and to seek further information from States and, as a law of maximums, delineate the most severe restrictions to rights and international trade and traffic allowable. Article 3 of the Regulations affirms that their implementation should be with the full respect for the dignity, human rights and fundamental freedoms of persons, requiring the least intrusive means for limiting human rights (arts. 31 and 43).92
