Sichuan smoothly passed the three peaks of fever clinic, emergency and severe patients, and the epidemic situation in rural areas did not rebound significantly.

"The province has successfully passed the three peaks of fever clinics, emergency departments and critically ill patients. The epidemic situation in rural areas that have received much attention has not rebounded significantly, and the overall epidemic situation in the province is stable and orderly." On the morning of January 28th, on the first working day after the Spring Festival holiday, the Provincial Health and Wellness Committee held a regular meeting of the leading group for epidemic prevention and control and a working meeting of the province’s health and wellness system. Xu Bin, deputy director of the Provincial Health and Wellness Committee, informed the situation at the meeting.

The normal medical order was gradually restored during the Spring Festival.

No new virus sequence was found.

The Epidemic Prevention and Control Group of the Provincial Health and Wellness Committee gave a set of data: the peak of infection in Covid-19, Sichuan Province has passed, and the trend of new infections is obvious. During the Spring Festival, all localities insisted on multi-point monitoring of the epidemic situation in COVID-19, and 110 virus genomes were sequenced, and no new virus sequences were found; No large-scale infection occurred in 3078 civil affairs service institutions in the province.

"During the Spring Festival, the number of positive patients and critically ill patients in the province continued to decline, and there was no obvious treatment of small peaks and insufficient medical resources, and the normal medical order gradually recovered." The Medical Treatment Group of the Provincial Health and Wellness Committee released a preliminary statistical result: from January 1 to January 27, the bed utilization rate of medical institutions above the second level dropped from 96.89% to 60.04%, and the bed utilization rate of ICU dropped from 87.50% to 49.73%. The number of positive patients in the hospital dropped from the highest of more than 80,000 in the previous period to more than 8,000, and the medical order recovered well.

Behind the figures is the continuous optimization of the province’s epidemic prevention and control measures. Taking medical services for key populations as an example, during the Spring Festival, Sichuan provided key populations with "three observations" (observing whether there is "silent hypoxia" performance, observing whether the health condition is abnormal, and observing whether the basic diseases are aggravated), "two tests" (antigen testing, temperature testing) and "one door-to-door" (door-to-door health package distribution) services at least twice a week, and carried out a total of 2.726 million health services; Counties (cities, districts) have set up more than 8,800 "roving diagnosis and treatment teams" in villages and towns, making rounds of clinics in township hospitals, villages with complicated conditions and nursing homes, providing medical treatment and health monitoring services to the masses face to face, and co-ordinating the distribution of medicines and necessary equipment to township hospitals and village clinics. Before and after the Spring Festival, the province’s health system also carried out the activities of "going to the grass-roots level, inspecting the facts, and making a big visit", guiding all localities to establish a daily monitoring and scheduling mechanism for drug reserves, and dynamically adjusting the reserves of drugs and testing reagents. Before the holiday, more than 90,000 finger-clip oximeters were provided free of charge for 44,800 village clinics in the province.

The possibility of a large-scale local epidemic in the near future is low.

But there are still uncertainties.

During the Spring Festival, the epidemic situation was stable and orderly. What do you think of the next step? How to do it?

Zhou Jiushun, an expert on epidemic prevention and control and deputy director of the Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention, judged that the epidemic situation fluctuated at a low level during the Spring Festival, and the possibility of a large-scale local epidemic and the importation of new strains causing a large-scale epidemic was low, but everyone should continue to be the first responsible person for health.

"At present, there are still uncertainties in the epidemic situation in COVID-19. All localities should continue to strengthen epidemic monitoring and situation analysis, and do a good job in prevention and control of key institutions in a targeted manner." Ma Jun, the relevant person in charge of the epidemic prevention and control group of the Provincial Health and Wellness Commission and director of the CDC, said that the next step would be to pay close attention to the introduction and spread of mutant strains in Covid-19, and to strengthen the epidemiological investigation of severe and dead cases, the protection of key populations, vaccination, epidemic prevention and control in rural areas and health services.

Li Bing, the relevant person in charge of the medical treatment team of the Provincial Health and Wellness Commission and director of the Medical Administration Department, said that the specified frequency of not less than 3 times and 2 times per week will continue to be strictly implemented, and full coverage health services will be provided to the key and sub-key populations in the province. Relying on the three-level severe treatment system in provinces, cities and counties and the piecemeal consultation mechanism in four high-level general hospitals such as west china hospital and Provincial People’s Hospital, the sinking and centralized treatment of experts will be strengthened, the treatment of critically ill patients and the co-treatment of multiple diseases will be highlighted, and the normal medical order will continue to be gradually restored.

Xu Bin said that the next step will be to focus on key places, key populations and key institutions to ensure that medical services, drug equipment, protective materials, vaccination and referral mechanisms are in place; Continue to strengthen the monitoring of new mutant strains in Covid-19, pay special attention to the monitoring of mutation imported from abroad in Covid-19, and provide decision-making basis for early epidemic warning; Strengthen the construction of compound, integrated and leading professional talents in general hospitals and disease control institutions.

Executive vice president of Beijing Hospital: Traditional Chinese medicine has played its due role in the overall treatment of the disease.

  CCTV News:On April 29th, the joint prevention and control mechanism of the State Council held a press conference, and asked the medical team of Beijing Hospital to tell the story of personal experience and fighting the epidemic together with the medical staff and heroic people in Hubei, and to answer questions from the media.

  The reporter asked: The Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Beijing Hospital is a national key clinical specialty. What experience does it have in the field of traditional Chinese medicine in the process of aiding Hubei?

  Xi Huan, executive vice president of Beijing Hospital, said that when Beijing Hospital set up a medical team, especially when it set up the second batch of medical teams on February 6, it had already considered some multidisciplinary organizational systems, including the selection of medical personnel from Chinese medicine departments.

  On the front line of Wuhan, the director of Chinese medicine department of Beijing Hospital insisted on going deep into the ward every day to understand the changes of the condition. After the active efforts of Beijing Hospital and the cooperation and support of Tongji Sino-French New Town Campus, the medical team of Beijing Hospital’s aid to Hubei can carry out prescription treatment by using the method of Chinese medicine-free decoction granules.

  The decoction pieces of traditional Chinese medicine need to be decocted. After it is granulated, it can be easily combined into a prescription, which is convenient for oral administration. In this way, Chinese medicine experts can truly achieve the treatment based on syndrome differentiation according to the principles of traditional Chinese medicine and the condition of each person. Different methods such as invigorating the spleen, clearing away lung heat, removing dampness and eliminating phlegm are used for different people.

  In the process of traditional Chinese medicine treatment, the medical team of Beijing Hospital’s aid to Hubei not only used the mature Chinese patent medicines and prescriptions that everyone has recognized, but also adopted the method of dialectical treatment for each patient.

  In addition, according to the statistics of the hospital’s information system every day, the utilization rate of traditional Chinese medicine among patients in the wards under management has reached more than 95%. Except for a few critically ill patients or those who have been treated with invasive ventilators, it may not be suitable to use traditional Chinese medicine, especially the method of prescription decoction, all patients who can use it have been treated with traditional Chinese medicine. In the process of treatment, the method of traditional Chinese medicine has played a very good role in treating the overall condition and improving the cure rate.

  From the perspective of western medicine, in view of the lack of specific drugs in Covid-19, all the patients with pneumonia in Covid-19 treated by the Hubei Medical Team of Beijing Hospital adopt a comprehensive treatment method, and western medicine is also a comprehensive treatment method. In the comprehensive treatment, Chinese medicine has played its due role.

  Changsha, December 25th (Reporter Xu Zhixiong correspondent Zou Min Zhou Ying) "Our invention has been recognized as reaching the international advanced level." On 25th, Li Lijun, Dean of School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Central South University of Forestry and Technology, proudly said that this newly-developed machine can match the working efficiency of 30 laborers in the past.

  Tea oil is as famous as olive oil, and is also called "the king of oil", which has unique nutritional value. At the same time, tea oil is also a unique oil species in China, with a history of cultivation and utilization of more than 2,300 years. However, for a long time, because Camellia oleifera grows in the mountains, tea seeds need to be picked completely by hand. "It is difficult to hire people and the labor cost is high" has become a bottleneck that seriously restricts the development of the tea oil industry, and it also directly leads to the continuous rise of tea oil prices, which makes ordinary people discouraged.

  Therefore, as early as 2009, the scientific research team of Central South University of Forestry and Science headed by Li Lijun began to study the replacement of manual picking of tea seeds with machines. In the past ten years, they have traveled all over the main tea-oil producing areas in Hunan, fully investigated the planting and picking characteristics of tea-oil trees, and constantly tackled technical problems and improved the prototype of tea-oil tree fruit picker.

  In view of the characteristics of Camellia oleifera forest, such as complex terrain, random tree shape and synchronous flowers and fruits, Li Lijun team listed four kinds of Camellia oleifera fruit picking methods, made nine rounds of prototypes, broke through seven key technologies, and made a lot of prototype tests, and finally the shaped Camellia oleifera fruit picker came out.

  "This machine not only has a smart ‘ Picker ’ It can be used for various tree-shaped operations and can walk freely in complex environments such as steep slopes. " Li Lijun said that the most important thing is that it can accurately match the energy, so as to achieve only picking the fruits without damaging the flowers or affecting the yield of tea seeds.

  Li Lijun said that at the just-concluded evaluation meeting of "Research on Key Techniques and Equipment of Camellia oleifera Fruit Picking" held by Hunan Forestry Society, the Camellia oleifera Fruit Picker of Central South Forestry University was recognized as having solved the problems of efficient picking of Camellia oleifera fruit and less flower loss, and the technology realized independent innovation, the equipment was reliable and practical, and the research results reached the international advanced level. "We plan to use one to two years to promote the beautification, multifunction, intelligence and serialization of Camellia oleifera fruit pickers, and realize mass production to benefit the majority of forest farmers."

Please pay attention to these "pits" when you join more VIP member routines in online video.

  BEIJING, Sept. 5 (Reporter Wu Tao) "Putting an elephant in the refrigerator is divided into three steps", but do you know how many steps there are to cancel the "automatic fee deduction" for an online video VIP member? Many netizens don’t even know where and how to cancel, all because the online video VIP membership routine is "full".

  Routine one

  Price temptation, binding "automatic deduction"

  "One cent for membership" and "9.9 yuan enjoys exclusive price for beginners". Many online video websites have been doing this activity almost all the year round, saying that opening VIP members is cheap. Is this true?

  The reporter learned in the investigation that when using these "preferential prices" to open VIP members, they have one thing in common, that is, they are forced to bind "automatic renewal" (or "automatic deduction"), otherwise they cannot enjoy such prices; The preferential price can only last for one month or a few days.

  "Why set the preferential price? One is to attract new VIP members, and the other is to bind payment methods, so as to be ‘ Automatic fee deduction ’ Provide the necessary conditions. " Some senior online video member users say that every time they recharge, they are tempted by the price, so they are basically cheaper "continuous monthly subscription".

  Routine 2

  There is no "automatic fee deduction" cancellation service on the page.

  After users subscribe to the "automatic fee deduction", in order to reduce the loss of VIP members, many online video websites do not set up the "automatic fee deduction" service, or the location is difficult to find. For example, in the APP member center of Mango TV, there is no way to cancel the automatic renewal on the whole page.

  "I don’t know how to cancel VIP membership" and "It’s too troublesome to cancel". Some users said in an interview with Zhongxin. com that they must open VIP members to watch popular dramas, but they always renew their fees because they can’t cancel the "automatic deduction fee" after watching them.

  Routine 3

  "automatic fee deduction" deducts fees in advance

  Some netizens believe that VIP members have not expired yet, and it is too late to cancel the "automatic deduction" when it expires. In fact, this is careless again. Many online video websites deduct fees in advance, about 1 to 3 days in advance. The specific time may be different for each enterprise.

  Routine four

  Members set up in the middle, and special resources will be charged again.

  According to the data published by some online video websites, the VIP membership rate of some websites has reached more than 90%, which means that among 100 users, more than 90 people are VIP members, but when most people become VIP members, the membership rights are not so "distinguished".

  The reporter’s investigation found that VIP members, including video websites such as Tencent Video, still need to pay extra when watching some sports programs; In some online audio-visual services such as QQ music, some music downloads, even if they are members of Green Diamond, still have to be charged separately.

  Routine five

  Inductive renewal fee

  OK, just pay for special resources, but sometimes, when you click on the pop-up page to pay, it becomes a VIP member "renewal fee" instead of "purchase", and the resources you want are still not available.

  In an interview with a reporter from Zhongxin.com, a user said that she used her member account to download songs on an online audio-visual platform, showing that she paid extra, and then a payment window popped up. "After paying, I still can’t download them. After paying for three times in a row, I found that it was renewed for three times. Finally, I found the purchase channel in a small line on the page, which can be marked prominently as ‘ Renewal fee ’ It is easy to be fooled. "

  Routine six

  Only payment channels that can be "automatically deducted" are provided.

  The No.42 document previously issued by Networked Clearing Co., Ltd. makes it clear that before June 30, the direct connection between all third-party payment institutions and banks will be cut off, and banks will no longer directly provide withholding channels for third-party payment institutions.

  The reporter noticed that Youku and others only provide payment methods that support withholding services, such as Alipay, WeChat payment or SMS from operators, and do not support payment channels that cannot automatically deduct fees.

  Enterprise: This is an industry phenomenon.

  The reporter contacted the relevant staff of two online video websites and got a response, saying that VIP members can meet the differentiated needs of users well, and it is not mandatory, and users can choose by themselves.

  "As for ‘ Routine ’ This is an industry phenomenon, not just online video, including online music, online download, online knowledge payment and other fields. Many companies do this. "

  Some users spend thousands of dollars a year.

  Although it is not mandatory, the burden is not small for users. "I have opened Youku, Iqiyi, Mango TV, Tencent videos, and I can’t remember them. The reason for recharging members every time is probably because of popular online dramas or variety shows." The above-mentioned senior online video user said.

  It is understood that the annual fee for VIP members of Tencent video is 198 yuan, and most of the online video VIP members are also around 200 yuan. For example, if a user has opened 10 VIP members, it will cost more than 2,000 yuan a year.

  In addition, don’t underestimate the VIP membership fee of tens of dollars per month. According to media reports, because there are many kinds of members charging for the Internet, many users spend five or six thousand yuan on membership purchases every year.

  How can I cancel the "automatic fee deduction"?

  Having said that, how can the "automatic deduction" be cancelled? The reporter found that there are basically two methods. One is to provide websites that cancel automatic renewal, such as Tencent Video and Youku, which can be cancelled in automatic renewal management. But there are relatively few such websites.

  More online video website member centers don’t have a cancel button, so they can only cancel through the purchase channel.

  For example, if you want to cancel the "automatic deduction" for VIP members purchased through Alipay, you can find the corresponding application in Alipay My-Settings-Payment Settings-Confidential Payment/Automatic Deduction-Payment Code and Sonic Confidential Payment, and just cancel. (End)

Four early warnings are issued! Cold wave+blizzard+strong wind+strong convection, the temperature will drop by 16℃

  In the next few days, the cold wave will gradually move south, from west to east and from north to south, gradually affecting most parts of China.

  △ On November 4th, the impact of the cold wave has been highlighted, with cooling in Xinjiang and Inner Mongolia.

  With the penetration of cold air, the temperature in most parts of the north to the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River will hit a new low after autumn, and the situation of abnormally high temperature in the previous period will also change, and the temperature in eastern Inner Mongolia and northeast China will be reversed from significantly high to low.

  △ National temperature anomaly in the past ten days VS temperature anomaly in the next ten days. From warm to cold.

  On the evening of the 4 th,The Central Meteorological Observatory issued four early warnings of cold wave, blizzard, strong wind and strong convection.!

  It is estimated that from 20: 00 on the 4th to 20: 00 on the 7th, the temperature will drop by 6 ~ 10℃ in the central and eastern parts of northwest China,The temperature in central and eastern Inner Mongolia, south-central Northeast China, central and eastern Jianghuai and other places will drop by 12 ~ 14℃, and the local temperature drop in southwestern Jilin, northwestern Liaoning and southeastern Inner Mongolia will reach more than 16℃.; The lowest temperature appeared on the morning of the 7th, and the lowest temperature 0℃ line will be located in northern Hebei, southern Beijing, southwestern Shanxi, Guanzhong Plain in Shaanxi and southeastern Gansu, and the lowest temperature in most areas along the Yangtze River will drop to about 10℃. There are 4 ~ 6 northerly winds in the north of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and the gusts are 7 ~ 9, and the local level can reach 10.

  The temperature drop is most severe in Northeast China, especially in Jilin, where the drop is generally above 16℃. The highest temperature in Changchun will be 11℃ tomorrow, and it will drop to -5℃ on the 7th, with a cumulative drop of 16℃.

  The cooling in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River is also very intense. The highest temperature in Shanghai, Hangzhou and other cities is still around 30℃ on the 4th and 5th. In particular, the highest temperature in Hangzhou will reach 31℃ tomorrow, but it will drop to 19℃ on the 6th, and seasonal and cliff-like cooling will be staged.

  Moreover, this cold wave is still an effort. Although it is a "spent force" to go to Guangdong, it will still cool down Guangdong and send some coolness ~

  In addition to strong winds and cooling, the cold wave will also bring a wide range of rain and snow weather to China. It is estimated that from 20: 00 on the 4 th to 20: 00 on the 6 th,There have been heavy snowstorms from west to east in the central and eastern Inner Mongolia, the central and western parts of Northeast China and the north, and there have been heavy snowstorms in some areas and local heavy snowstorms.(30 ~ 34 mm), the new snow depth is 10 ~ 20 cm, and the local area can reach more than 25 cm. The main snowfall period is from the night of the 5th to the 6th.

  The precipitation in the east and northeast of Inner Mongolia lasts for a long time, and the accumulated precipitation is large, and the precipitation phase is complex. In the early stage, the temperature is high before the rain snows, and the snow will turn from tomorrow night to the day after tomorrow, accompanied by strong winds, and there will be snowstorms in some areas, which is extremely extreme.

  Why is the snowfall in Northeast China so strong this time? Zhang Juan, a meteorologist of China Weather Network, said that there was a cold vortex at high altitude and the ground cooperated with cyclones, which made the water vapor in the Yellow Sea and the Sea of Japan rise strongly after being involved. The snowfall intensity was rare in early November.

  Remember the rain and snow process in early November 2021? The daily precipitation of 151 national stations in Northeast China, Inner Mongolia, North China and Huanghuai broke the historical extreme in November. The phase transition of rain and snow in Northeast China is complex, and freezing rain occurs. The snow depth in Inner Mongolia, Jilin and Liaoning is more than 40 cm.

  Although the scope of rain and snow in Northeast China is not as wide as that in 2021, there will still be rain and snow conversion, and the snow potential is relatively strong.

  In addition, the Central Meteorological Observatory issued a strong convective warning on the evening of the 4th. It is estimated that from 20: 00 on the 4 th to 20: 00 on the 5 th, there will be 8-10 thunderstorms or hail weather in parts of southern Anhui, south-central Hunan, north-central Jiangxi, southern Guizhou and northwestern Guangxi; There will be short-term heavy precipitation in parts of central and southern Anhui, eastern Hubei, most of Hunan, central and northern Jiangxi, southeastern Chongqing, eastern and southern Guizhou, northwestern Guangxi, southwestern Guangdong, Hainan Island and other places, with a maximum hourly rainfall of 20-30 mm and a local area of more than 50 mm.

  The heavy snowfall in Inner Mongolia, Heilongjiang, Jilin and Liaoning, coupled with the superposition effect of previous snowfall, has a medium and high risk of snowstorm and low-temperature rain, snow and freezing disasters. Relevant departments and the public should pay attention to the traffic congestion or accidents that may be caused by snow and ice on road sections, and agriculture and animal husbandry should pay attention to the possible adverse effects of heavy snowfall; Strong convection and strong cooling in the south are coming, and the public should also pay attention to prevention.
