Spanish term or phrase: años más productivos
El SIDA es un problema de desarrollo humano que trasciende la salud pública, afecta a las personas en sus años más productivos, reduciendo a las familias y comunidades en la pobreza extrema.

Los efectos de esta epidemia amenazan la gobernanza eficaz y la esencia misma de la sociedad en los países más afectados. Representa a los países una carga adicional para los presupuestos nacionales, y disminuye la capacidad de los gobiernos de brindar servicios esenciales .

Funcionará aquí una traducción literal?
