CCTV News:Recently, in more than 20 provinces and cities such as Beijing, Hebei, Jiangsu and Shanghai, many consumers reported that after receiving the so-called "online shopping payment" call, they followed the prompts step by step, but eventually the money in the card was missing. What the hell is going on here?

On the afternoon of May 25th, Ms. Li, who lives in Jinan, Shandong Province, received a phone call from a man who claimed to be "express customer service". The other party said that a bottle of lotion that Ms. Li bought on Taobao was damaged in transit, and the company would pay double compensation. On the phone, the man also verified the consignee information, logistics order number and other information with her in detail. Because there was no mistake in the content, Ms. Li quickly believed his words.

Ms. Li, the victim of Jinan, Shandong Province: At that time, I also called Yuantong customer service, but perhaps because it was Saturday and Sunday, there was no option for manual customer service. Check the real-time logistics, it is indeed in Linyi. On the phone, I heard that the other party was at the scene of the accident, and many people were talking about settling claims, and then I believed it.

Ms. Li said that during the refund process, the other party told her that due to her low credit score of Alipay Sesame, the claims could not be directly returned to the account, so Ms. Li needed to cooperate with them to improve the credit score by "running water".

Therefore, under the guidance of the other party, Ms. Li, who was unsuspecting, successively borrowed more than 100,000 yuan from online lending platforms such as Alipay Borrowing and Micro-loan. Later, she downloaded Dangdang App according to the other party’s prompt and used the Dangdang account and password provided by the other party to purchase Dangdang gift cards with a total amount of 100,000 yuan.

Ms. Li, the victim of Jinan, Shandong Province: I didn’t know that these were loan platforms at the time. I also asked them how they were related to Dangdang. He probably means that there is cooperation, and these are all their backstage operations.

But soon, Ms. Li found that these Dangdang gift cards worth 100,000 yuan were quickly consumed. At this point, Ms. Li discovered that the situation was wrong and immediately reported the police.

Ms. Li’s experience is not unique. On June 18th, Ms. Yu from Heilongjiang received a phone call claiming to be Taobao’s customer service. The other party said that the clothes bought by Ms. Yu needed to be recalled because of unqualified printing and dyeing, and 160 yuan should be compensated to consumers. After that, the process is the same. After verifying the information, you gain trust, and then you are induced to buy a Dangdang gift card after the woman borrows money. In the end, Ms. Yu was cheated of 17,000 yuan.

Ms. Yu, the victim of HeilongjiangAfter I calmed down, I went to Dangdang to check the gift card and found that the balance of my gift card was zero. When I clicked on the Dangdang gift card link, I found that many comments below were cheated.

The reporter saw in a WeChat group with nearly 300 victims that from May to August this year, victims with the same experience entered the group, involving more than 20 provinces and cities such as Hebei, Jiangsu, Shanghai and Shandong, and the amount of losses has exceeded 6 million.

In these cases, there are two key problems, one is that the user’s information has been leaked, and the other is that these frauds are finally concentrated on Dangdang’s gift cards. What the hell is going on here? The reporter then contacted Dangdang.

In the interview, Ms. Li told the reporter that after the incident, she immediately inquired about the capital flow and delivery address of the gift card from Dangdang.

Ms. Li, the victim of Jinan, Shandong Province: I contacted Dangdang. His feedback was that it took me a few minutes to buy the gift card, but he didn’t tell me where the consumer went, so he said he didn’t know.

Many victims told reporters that after the alarm, they immediately contacted Dangdang customer service, hoping that the other party could freeze the relevant accounts.

Mr. Wang, the victim of Jinan, Shandong ProvinceAt that time, the customer service said that these gift cards were mainly bulk transactions, mainly used by the company to buy. We spent 100,000 yuan on this thing, and he didn’t ask us which unit we belonged to, so he didn’t verify it. I asked what this money was going to do. What did you buy? He said he didn’t know either.

The victim’s messages and comments on the gift card purchase page did not seem to attract the attention of Dangdang customer service. Regarding the problems reflected by consumers, the relevant person in charge of Dangdang said in an interview that such incidents occurred at low frequency, and corresponding prevention and control measures have been taken for such incidents.

Kan Min, Vice President of Dangdang.com.The incidence of these examples you mentioned is very low, and we actually don’t monitor a lot.

journalist: How many have been detected?

Kan Min, Vice President of Dangdang.com.: Because there is still police intervention, including customer information, it is not convenient for us to say specific figures. If it is a customer complaint, Dangdang will immediately freeze the suspected gift card. When Dangdang’s risk control team scans the order and finds that there is a large amount of gift cards to buy goods that are easy to sell, it will also terminate the transaction first and then deliver the goods to customers when it is confirmed that it is not fraudulent.

journalist: Isn’t there a situation that consumers reported that there was no first freeze?

Kan Min, Vice President of Dangdang.com.: Yes, at present.

The reporter learned that most of the victims have reported the case and the case is still under investigation. So what measures should enterprises and consumers take to deal with the current situation of frequent online fraud?

Experts said that the modern online payment platform has developed rapidly and there are various fast payment tools, but it has also become a "fast track" for fraudsters to defraud property. In this case, the online shopping platform also has the obligation and responsibility to ensure the safety of consumers’ information and funds. According to the E-commerce Law, Cyber Security Law and other relevant laws, after such cyber security incidents, online shopping platforms should take corresponding remedial measures at the first time and report to the relevant competent authorities as required.

Lawyer Wang Weiwei of Beijing Jingshi Law FirmIf there are some network security incidents on the platform, we must first have an emergency plan, and at the same time have the obligation to inform consumers.

In addition, experts also remind consumers that when they receive the so-called "refund" and "money-returning" online shopping customer service and business phone calls, they should not easily disclose personal information, and they should not transfer money casually. They must make a decision after calling the announced official customer service phone number to avoid being deceived.

Wang Xiaowei, Associate Professor of Chinese People’s Public Security University.It is common sense that if you want a refund on the online shopping platform, you must do it on the platform. However, the liar will ask the victim to go to other channels outside the platform for a refund. When encountering all kinds of abnormal situations, it is possible to avoid being cheated and quickly see through this deception by asking more why and combining common sense.

On August 10th, it was reported that Google publicly criticized Apple on the official website of Android on Tuesday, saying that it failed to improve the user experience of communication between iPhone and Android users. For a long time, some users have complained about green message bubbles in cross-device messages, such as poor compressed video quality, lack of read receipts, and other headaches. Google blames Apple for this, because the latter will convert the information sent between iPhone and Android users into SMS and MMS, both of which were developed decades ago and mainly designed for the plain text era.

Google believes that Apple should use Rich Communication Service (RSC) to realize this function. They believe that this is a "modern industry standard", which can improve users’ experience of sending text messages and making phone calls, and also support emoticons, videos and pictures. Android official website said, "These problems exist because Apple refuses to adopt modern communication standards when sending messages between iPhone and Android phones. Google also encourages visitors to share this topic on social media, including using "@ Apple" to remind Apple, and adding the topic tag of "#getthemessage". (Source: Sina Technology)

On the evening of August 10th, Beijing time, it was reported that Huang Renxun, CEO of NVIDIA, recently assured more than 22,000 employees of the company that NVIDIA would not lay off employees at least in the short term. Although the company issued a preliminary performance warning earlier, it said that its revenue in the second quarter would be lower than previously expected.

NVIDIA issued an early warning on Monday, saying that due to the sluggish game business, revenue in the second quarter is expected to be $6.7 billion, down 19% from the previous month and up 3% year-on-year. The revenue was lower than the $8.1 billion expected by NVIDIA and Wall Street analysts.

In response, Huang Renxun said in an email to employees that the performance in the second quarter was "significantly lower than expected", which was mainly due to the slowdown in the game business. But at the same time, he assured employees that the fundamentals of NVIDIA are still strong and the demand is still strong.

He said, "What does this mean for us? Will we lay off employees? No. On the contrary, we gave you a raise to take care of your families, because all of you are facing severe inflation. (Source: cnBeta)

　　With the orderly resumption of work and production, the consumption fever soared during the May Day holiday.

　　From the data of local life and online shopping, consumer confidence is gradually picking up, and all walks of life are also welcoming recovery.

　　The consumption of catering, beauty and entertainment has warmed up in an all-round way.

　　According to the data of Meituan Research Institute, as of May 4, the recovery rate of consumption in the national life service industry has reached 91.5%, which is greatly improved compared with 75.9% on April 30.

Ranked second to fourth respectively. According to the search data, in the north, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, hot pot, barbecue/barbecue, crayfish and other keywords sit firmly in the top five search volumes in the north, Guangzhou and Shenzhen. Nationally, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Xi ‘an, Beijing and Chengdu have become the cities with the largest number of food and beverage orders.

　　At the same time, the "night economy" (the service-oriented economic activities that took place from 18: 00 that day to 2: 00 the next morning) that had been stagnant for several months due to the epidemic is rapidly recovering.

　　The five-year-old baby who has not wet the bed for a long time suddenly "draws a map" frequently at night. Is it because of drinking too much water or kidney problems? The answer is beyond Bao Ma’s expectation — — All this is actually snoring.

　　Case playback

　　Came to the otorhinolaryngology department because of bedwetting

　　Cong Cong is a lively and lovely five-year-old boy, but in recent months, Cong Cong, who has long stopped wetting the bed, suddenly began to wet the bed again. At first, my mother didn’t care, just told Cong Cong to go to the toilet before going to sleep, but bed wetting still appeared from time to time, and Cong Cong often couldn’t wake up in the morning. My mother began to worry, and she took Cong Cong to the hospital in a hurry.

　　After arriving at the hospital, they went to urology and nephrology, and found no problems. Finally, under the recommendation of these two doctors, they came to otorhinolaryngology head and neck surgery.

　　When I came here, the first question the doctor asked turned out to be: "Does the child snore when sleeping?" Congcong’s mother replied, "Yes, there is snoring, but is it related to bed wetting?" The doctor explained in no hurry that snoring does have something to do with bed wetting. These two symptoms seem unrelated, but in fact, many children’s bed wetting at night is caused by snoring.

　　How does snoring trigger bed wetting?

　　Under normal circumstances, we don’t snore when we sleep. However, if the upper airway of the nasal cavity or throat is locally narrowed for various reasons, when breathing, the airflow passes through the narrow place, and the muscles are vibrated to make a snoring sound.

　　Medically, this disease is called "obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome". The main manifestations of this kind of diseases are sleep snoring, mouth breathing and breath holding. What is more frightening than snoring is that children can’t breathe enough air when they sleep because of local stenosis such as nasal cavity or throat, which leads to insufficient oxygen supply. Over time, chronic hypoxia will affect children’s development in all aspects.

　　So, how does snoring cause bed wetting? Bedwetting is medically called nocturnal enuresis, which means that children over 5 years old involuntarily urinate at night. At present, its etiology is not clear, but many research reports show that it is related to obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome. Mainly, this disease can cause children to suffer from chronic hypoxia, resulting in oxidative stress reaction, leading to bladder instability and enuresis. At the same time, obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome can cause sympathetic nerve excitation, lead to a large number of catecholamine compounds accumulation, and eventually lead to nocturnal enuresis.

　　Due to the long-term lack of oxygen supply, children’s behavior and growth and development will be affected to some extent. In addition, due to long-term oral breathing, the impact of airflow on the hard palate will deform and arch the hard palate, and the development of the oral cavity and maxillofacial region will also change over time. Gradually, children will have short and thick upper lip, high arch of hard palate, irregular teeth arrangement, prominent upper incisors, difficult facial muscles to move, lack of expression, etc. This is the "adenoid face" that is widely concerned by parents at present.

　　Remember to see a doctor when your child has these symptoms.

　　Remind parents and friends that children snore, don’t underestimate them, and don’t think that children are just "tired of playing" or sleeping soundly.

　　Some children show short-term apnea, and parents can find that although the child is still breathing in the chest and abdomen while sleeping, there is no airflow through the mouth and nose. There are also some children who have no apnea, but their breathing during long-term sleep is in a state of insufficient ventilation. In the long run, children’s lack of ventilation at night and disordered sleep structure will cause a series of pathophysiological changes.

　　Children who snore often find it difficult to get up in the morning, often feel sleepy during the day, lack of concentration and hyperactivity, poor memory, learning difficulties, or nocturnal enuresis, growth retardation, hypertension, obesity, etc., and even some children may have psychological and behavioral abnormalities, such as abnormal shyness, rebellion or aggressive behavior. If the child often snores in sleep, or is accompanied by breathing with his mouth open, holding his breath at night, wetting the bed, etc., parents should take the child to the otorhinolaryngology head and neck surgery.

　　At present, the clinical diagnosis and treatment of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome is very mature, and many children have achieved satisfactory results after drug treatment or surgical treatment. Timely diagnosis and treatment can not only restore children’s healthy and happy childhood as soon as possible, but also avoid various complications.

In recent years, due to the change of people’s lifestyle, the incidence of stomach diseases is increasing year by year. At present, about 70% of the general population suffers from stomach diseases, and it shows a trend of younger age.

At the turn of the season, it is the high incidence season of stomach diseases. On the one hand, the heat in summer has not completely faded away, and people often don’t avoid cold food. On the other hand, the weather is getting colder, the temperature difference between day and night is large, and the gastrointestinal function is weakened, so it is easy to suffer from gastrointestinal diseases. Huang Feijian, an expert in internal medicine at Dongcheng Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said that people should pay special attention to the acquired protection of the spleen and stomach and try to avoid chilled drinks and foods in summer.

Gastropathy mostly develops from chronic superficial gastritis.

As mentioned in Huangdi Neijing, the spleen and stomach are the sea of water valleys. Only when the spleen and stomach are good, what we eat can be digested and absorbed normally, and then we can study and live energetically. If the digestion is not good, the human body may have a series of problems such as hypoxia and ischemia, which may lead to dizziness and weakness in walking, and even more serious diseases such as enteritis and heart disease. Therefore, it is very important to protect the spleen and stomach.

In today’s era, common stomach diseases include chronic superficial gastritis, chronic congestive gastritis, chronic antritis, chronic erosive gastritis, chronic esophageal reflux gastritis, bile reflux gastritis, chronic atrophic gastritis, gastric ulcer, intestinal ulcer and colitis. Among them, chronic superficial gastritis, atrophic gastritis and gastric ulcer are common diseases in our lives. In recent years, with the increasing pressure of life, people’s irregular eating habits and lifestyle changes, more and more people suffer from such stomach diseases.

Huang Feijian said that chronic superficial gastritis can be said to be the basic gastritis of all stomach diseases, and there are many patients. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, chronic superficial gastritis is related to cold pathogen or damp pathogen, and the main symptoms include flatulence, bowel sounds, abdominal sounds, and unpleasant diet. If it is a stomach disease caused by cold and dampness, the main symptoms are noisy and restless stomach, flatulence, acid regurgitation, slight vomiting and constipation, and there will be cases where the symptoms are aggravated by eating cold things and slightly relieved by eating hot ones. After wet and cold stasis appear in the body, the body will have symptoms such as fear of heat, dry mouth, dizziness, insomnia, palpitation, shortness of breath and even high blood pressure.

Among many stomach diseases, chronic superficial gastritis is a mild and easy-to-treat disease, but it should be found and treated early. For chronic superficial gastritis, the treatment of traditional Chinese medicine focuses on promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis on the basis of dispelling cold, dehumidification and strengthening the body resistance. The medicine contains Erchen decoction, Huaqi decoction and Lizhong decoction.

Attention should be paid to the fact that gastric ulcer and atrophic gastritis can induce cancer.

Gastric ulcer and atrophic gastritis are concepts of western medicine. Among them, the symptoms of gastric ulcer are applicable to the category of epigastric pain in traditional Chinese medicine, and the lesions are mostly in the upper abdomen, and may also appear in the left upper abdomen or behind the sternum and xiphoid process. Patients often feel dull pain, dull pain, distending pain, burning pain, bloating, fullness, anorexia, indigestion, poor diet or inability to eat. In life, overeating sweets is usually one of the causes of gastric ulcer. The stomach can’t digest and metabolize a lot of sweets completely, and it accumulates in the stomach, which in turn leads to gastric ulcer.

Patients with gastric ulcer often have their symptoms relieved or disappeared after meals. The pain is obvious from half an hour to an hour after meals, and gradually relieved after 1-2 hours, and the pain is aggravated at night. The pain gets worse after catching cold, overeating and drinking. Some patients also have nausea, vomiting, acid regurgitation, belching and diarrhea, and some patients may have no symptoms or take complications such as bleeding and perforation as the first symptom. Gastric ulcer can lead to perforation of ulcer, upper gastrointestinal bleeding, and long-term attack can easily lead to gastric cancer.

Atrophic gastritis, also known as chronic atrophic gastritis, is a chronic digestive system disease characterized by atrophy and reduction of gastric mucosa epithelium and glands, thinning of gastric mucosa, thickening of mucosal base, or metaplasia of pyloric gland and intestinal gland, or atypical hyperplasia. Often manifested as dull pain in the upper abdomen, fullness, belching, loss of appetite, emaciation, anemia, etc., it is a multi-pathogenic disease. According to data observation, if atrophic gastritis is not treated in time, the canceration rate is quite high. In the treatment of traditional Chinese medicine, atrophic gastritis mainly focuses on relieving qi, strengthening the body resistance, supplementing qi and blood, and improving immunity, and on this basis, it clears up the environment for the growth of Helicobacter pylori. It can be cured in a month or two or three months.

Gastric ulcer and atrophic gastritis can occur independently or simultaneously. Gastric ulcer disease occurs on the basis of chronic gastritis, and many patients with gastric ulcer have chronic atrophic gastritis.

Look, hear and ask questions, and intervene according to the symptoms

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that six evils and seven emotions are both factors leading to atrophic gastritis of gastric ulcer. Most patients with gastric ulcer and atrophic gastritis have white, thick and greasy tongue coating, heavy and astringent pulse, and the pulse is full of yang, and the yin and cold are heavy, which leads to the breeding of Helicobacter pylori. The principle of Chinese medicine in treating diseases is not to directly kill Helicobacter pylori, but to regulate the body itself and fundamentally change the breeding environment of Helicobacter pylori, so that there is no soil for Helicobacter pylori to breed again.

Therefore, whether it is gastric ulcer or atrophic gastritis, it is necessary to find out the cause according to the patient’s pulse, tongue and face, and distinguish which constitution the patient belongs to, cold, dampness, cold and dampness, or stasis. After the diagnosis, the problem can be fundamentally solved by targeted treatment according to the lesions and symptoms.

Diet and life management are indispensable for the treatment of old stomach diseases.

It is very important to protect the temperature of the stomach for patients with gastric ulcer and atrophic gastritis. Diet should be warm, soft, light, vegetarian and fresh, so as to achieve regular quantitative, eat less and eat more meals, do not eat hot, hard, too spicy, too sticky food, but also avoid overeating, smoking and drinking. Under the guidance of a doctor, we should avoid taking drugs that irritate the stomach, and pay attention to the method of taking them, preferably half an hour after meals, in order to avoid irritating the gastric mucosa and worsening the condition. In particular, you can’t eat things that are too cold often. Generally speaking, the temperature of the stomach is around 36 degrees, while the temperature of iced food is between MINUS 1 degree and MINUS 2 degrees. If you drink and eat for a long time, the temperature of the stomach will drop, which will lead to stomach diseases. Therefore, even in hot summer, all kinds of iced drinks and foods should be avoided as much as possible.

Gastric ulcer and atrophic gastritis are closely related to mood and mentality. Therefore, we should pay attention to mental health, keep cheerful and emotional stability, and avoid the stimulation of bad emotions such as tension, anxiety and anger. At the same time, the law of life, work should be combined with rest, ensure sleep, and insist on proper exercise.

■ Tips

Several behaviors that are easy to hurt the stomach

1. Frozen diet is prone to "gastritis"

In the hot summer, you can sweat when you sit still. Many people will gulp down a glass of cold beer or drink a bottle of frozen drink quickly in order to cool down and quench their thirst. I feel carefree, but the cold drink and cold beer I just drank will stimulate the warm stomach. Just like conditioned reflex, the gastric mucosa will contract rapidly, leading to gastric ischemia and hypoxia, which will lead to the recurrence of gastritis or gastropathy.

2. Blowing the air conditioner makes the stomach "cold"

Because of the hot weather, many people blow the air conditioner for a long time at night or blow the fan all night, and don’t cover the quilt at all. Although doing so can increase the comfort of sleep, but let the body stay in a low temperature state for a long time, which will easily make the stomach catch cold, cause stomach discomfort, nausea, bloating and other symptoms.

Irregular diet hurts the stomach the most.

If you don’t eat breakfast, you are hungry for a full meal, and your three meals are unbalanced or overeating, you can do it occasionally, but if you do this for a long time, the damage to your stomach will accumulate over time, which will cause great trouble. Especially for people who have problems with their stomachs, it is simply worse.

Yesterday (December 10th), the National Health and Wellness Commission held a press conference and invited relevant experts to introduce the prevention and treatment of respiratory diseases in winter in China. What measures should schools, kindergartens and other institutions take to prevent the spread of respiratory diseases, and should they be vaccinated after they have recovered from cold symptoms? Understand the article ↓↓↓

one

The overall amount of diagnosis and treatment of respiratory diseases in children fluctuated and decreased.

Mi Feng, spokesperson of the National Health and Wellness Commission, said that at present, the overall amount of diagnosis and treatment of children’s respiratory diseases in medical institutions above the second level in the country has shown a downward trend, and the increase in pediatric diagnosis and treatment in some large children’s specialist hospitals and general hospitals has been alleviated.

Judging from the overall situation of fever clinics and emergency departments, the number of patients with respiratory diseases in China has been relatively stable in recent days, especially in primary medical institutions. The overall normal medical services in the country have not been affected.

What is the progress of influenza vaccination in China?

Xia Gang, director of the Department of Health and Immunity of the National Bureau for Disease Control and Prevention, said that this year’s influenza vaccine supply has the following characteristics:

First, the supply is early. Since July, vaccination units around the country have started influenza vaccination services one after another, earlier than the influenza epidemic season.

Second, the vaccine supply is sufficient. This year, the production and supply of influenza vaccine has increased significantly compared with last year, and it can meet the vaccination needs of the masses at this stage.

The third is to re-implement. Dispatch and deploy many times to guide all localities to actively promote the vaccination of influenza vaccine in accordance with the principle of informed consent.

three

What measures do key institutions and places take to prevent it?

Peng Zhibin, director of the Department of Respiratory Infectious Diseases of the Infectious Diseases Management Office of China CDC, said that schools, kindergartens, public transport and other areas are densely populated and relatively closed inside, and are key institutions and places for the prevention and control of respiratory infectious diseases.

For schools and child care institutions

First, we should vaccinate in time as soon as possible. Students, faculty and staff should carry out influenza vaccination as soon as possible to improve their own immune barrier and reduce the risk of illness;

Second, it is necessary to strengthen environmental cleanliness, maintain indoor hygiene, regularly open windows for ventilation, maintain indoor air flow, and improve classroom air quality. However, the outdoor temperature is low in winter and spring, and attention should be paid to keeping warm during window ventilation;

Third, it is suggested to strengthen health monitoring, do a good job in morning and afternoon check-ups, absenteeism registration, etc. Students and faculty members are advised not to go to work with illness to prevent infectious diseases from being introduced into schools or classrooms.

For public transport

First, it is necessary to do a good job in cleaning and disinfecting the interior of vehicles, and ventilate regularly to ensure the air quality inside vehicles;

Second, it is suggested to wear a mask in the high incidence season of respiratory infectious diseases to reduce the risk of exposure and illness and be the first person responsible for your own health.

How to strengthen protection for young children and the elderly?

Peng Zhibin introduced that winter and spring are the high season of respiratory infectious diseases, the immune system of young children is still not perfect, and the immune function of the elderly is relatively weak. On the basis of maintaining good personal hygiene habits and clean environment, it is necessary to focus on strengthening the following protective measures:

The first is to carry out vaccination as soon as possible. Vaccination can effectively reduce infection and reduce the risk of severe diseases, which is the most effective and economical means to prevent infectious diseases. Young children and the elderly should be vaccinated against COVID-19, influenza and pneumococcus as soon as possible.

Second, young children and the elderly should try to avoid going to places with closed environment and crowded people. When it is really necessary to go, they should wear masks scientifically to reduce the risk of respiratory infectious diseases.

The third is to strengthen the daily health monitoring of young children and the elderly. When there are symptoms of respiratory infectious diseases such as fever and cough, they should seek medical advice as soon as possible and use drugs scientifically and safely according to the doctor’s advice.

In addition, when other family members have respiratory infectious diseases, they should try to avoid close contact, especially to avoid contact with young children and the elderly at home. When children whose family members have symptoms of respiratory infectious diseases such as fever and cough go to the hospital, they should also protect themselves and avoid cross-infection.

five

Are you still vaccinated after you have recovered from cold symptoms?

Xia Gang, director of the Department of Health and Immunity of the National Bureau for Disease Control and Prevention, said that if flu-like symptoms have already appeared, it is recommended to continue to vaccinate against influenza after the diagnosis is not confirmed and self-healing. There are two reasons:

First, the symptoms of respiratory tract infection are not specific, and many pathogenic infections may have flu-like symptoms such as fever and headache. However, such symptoms are not necessarily infected with influenza virus, but may also be infected with other pathogens, the most common being the common cold.

Second, there are many types (except A, there are B) and subtypes (A has H1N1 subtype and H3N2 subtype) of influenza virus, which can cause epidemic. After being infected with a certain type or subtype, there will be the risk of getting other types or subtypes of influenza. Influenza vaccine is a multivalent vaccine covering many different types and subtypes, and trivalent and tetravalent vaccines are usually used. If you are vaccinated after being infected with a certain type of influenza (such as A), the components of other types of influenza (such as B) contained in it can still play a role in preventing this type of influenza. In addition, in the same epidemic season, different types and subtypes are commonly prevalent. For example, at present, subtype A (H3N2) is dominant, followed by influenza B.. In the past, in the same epidemic season, the dominant strains gradually changed from one type to another.

Therefore, even if you have had cold symptoms recently, it is recommended to get flu vaccine as soon as possible after recovery, especially for key people such as the elderly. Vaccination with flu vaccine can reduce infection and reduce the risk of serious illness and death.

On the effectiveness and safety of influenza vaccine

Peng Zhibin, director of the Department of Respiratory Infectious Diseases of the Infectious Diseases Management Office of China CDC, said that people’s understanding of the harmfulness of diseases, the safety and effectiveness of vaccines all affect their willingness to vaccinate. Peng Zhibin responded to three questions at the press conference:

First of all, about the dangers of influenza. Influenza is not a common cold, but an acute respiratory infectious disease caused by influenza virus. People are generally susceptible to influenza virus, and high-risk groups such as infants, the elderly and patients with chronic diseases are more harmful after being infected with influenza, and may have serious complications such as pneumonia.

Secondly, about the effectiveness of influenza vaccine. Scientific research and vaccination practice have fully proved that influenza vaccination is effective. For the elderly who are at high risk of becoming seriously ill after being infected with influenza, influenza vaccination can effectively reduce the incidence of influenza and the incidence of influenza-related complications in the elderly. Some researchers have made a comprehensive analysis of 95 studies on the protection effect of influenza vaccine in the world. The results show that in the flu season, after the elderly are vaccinated with influenza vaccine, the flu-like symptoms can be reduced by 39%, the confirmed flu can be reduced by 49%, and the flu-related complications can be reduced by 28%.

Taking another key population, children and adolescents, as an example, influenza vaccination can effectively reduce the incidence of influenza in school-age children, and can also reduce absenteeism from school due to influenza. Research conducted in Beijing shows that large-scale centralized vaccination of influenza vaccine for primary and secondary school students can reduce the risk of influenza concentrated fever by 50%-89%. The research carried out in Shenzhen shows that the high vaccination rate of influenza vaccine can effectively reduce the risk of absenteeism, and the preventive effect on absenteeism is 53%.

Third, about the safety of vaccines. Influenza vaccine has been used in the world and China for decades. It is a mature vaccine with good safety.

seven

These vaccines are also recommended for key populations.

Xia Gang said that in addition to influenza vaccination this winter and next spring, pneumococcal vaccine and Covid-19 vaccine are also recommended for the elderly and people with chronic basic diseases;

For children, it is suggested that on the basis of continuing to do a good job in immunization planning vaccination, non-immunization planning vaccines such as pneumococcal vaccine and Haemophilus influenzae type B conjugate vaccine can also be vaccinated.

No matter whether it is an immunization program vaccine or a non-immunization program vaccine, the requirements of vaccination specifications should be strictly followed during the vaccination process.

　　Investigation motive

　　"Delta Omicron Co-circulation", "Six Yangkang tourists in a scenic spot died of heart failure", "Beijing tap water is sunny" and "Express delivery industry closed on January 8 due to epidemic situation" … … For some time, there have been rumors about the epidemic-related network, distorting the national epidemic prevention policy, dispelling the people’s confidence in fighting the epidemic, seriously endangering social stability, and the people hate it.

　　Recently, the Central Network Information Office reported typical cases of epidemic rumors. The relevant person in charge said that it will continue to resolutely crack down on rumors and rumors, and strictly investigate and deal with account subjects who publish rumors. At the same time, relevant departments and netizens are welcome to actively participate in reporting, provide relevant clues, and work together to eradicate online rumors. Living soil.

　　Why are epidemic-related rumors repeatedly banned, why do some rumors come back after rumors, and how to effectively rectify and purify cyberspace? With these questions, the reporter conducted an in-depth investigation and interview.

　　□ Our reporter Zhang Shoukun Wen Lijuan

　　"Yangkang is not equal to health. Yesterday, several people died in Laojunding skiing, all of them were Yangkang, and suddenly they suffered from heart failure after strenuous exercise." Recently, the net spread "Qinhuangdao Laojunding Scenic Area ‘ Yangkang ’ The information that 6 tourists died of heart failure has attracted attention. After investigation, the news was false information. At present, the rumored woman Ma has been administratively detained by the police.

　　From "killing the whole city tonight" to "increasing chlorine injection into tap water", from "nucleic acid sampling is toxic" to "mask raw materials will cause pulmonary nodules", from "a positive man is transferred by crane" to "a container is used to operate a positive patient somewhere", from "the tap water will spread the virus" to "you can choose a mild strain to infect and produce antibodies" … …

　　In the investigation, the reporter of "Rule of Law Daily" found that every once in a while, all kinds of epidemic-related rumors circulating on the Internet will be "updated". Some of them deliberately misinterpret and fabricate epidemic prevention policies, and some carry out pseudo-popular science under the guise of science. Because they are related to the epidemic situation, these rumors can easily attract people’s attention and get a lot of attention and forwarding, which leads to many people’s doubts, anxiety, panic and other emotions, and even interferes with the normal epidemic prevention and control work.

　　A number of interviewed experts said that to rectify online rumors and purify cyberspace, we must further compact the platform responsibility, improve the information review and judgment mechanism, and control the release of epidemic-related rumors at the source; It is necessary to severely punish rumors according to law, and if serious consequences are caused, criminal punishment will be given.

　　Internet rumors about epidemic diseases continue.

　　Rumors make money by draining.

　　On New Year’s Day this year, Yin Kang, a citizen of Lianyungang City, Jiangsu Province, who opened the social software early in the morning, found that there were several rumors that had been continuously refuted in his social group and circle of friends.

　　At the end of the holiday, when I went to work, some colleagues told Yin Kang mysteriously with a bottle of Erguotou, that high alcohol can prevent COVID-19 infection. Would you like some? What bothers Yin Kang even more is that grandpa, who had given up smoking and drinking because of his poor liver and lungs, immediately asked his family to smoke and drink … …

　　Yin Kang said that although there are many rumors like this, people with discerning eyes know that they are false at first glance, but because of the rapid spread and wide range, some people, especially many elderly people, are willing to believe it. In addition, there are still many rumors that are cloaked in science, and the tone is so convincing that it is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish them.

　　Not long ago, WeChat Security Center announced the top ten rumors that were most widely circulated in the circle of friends in 2022, many of which were related to the epidemic situation, such as the toxic reagent on the "sampling cotton swab", the daily subsidy during the epidemic, and the prevention of Covid-19 by soaking Stephania in water. For Pan Ying in Nantong City, Jiangsu Province, these rumors are familiar to her.

　　"These top ten rumors have been forwarded by my family elders to the group. In recent years, I have been on the road of rumors, and I have tried my best to tell my family that these are false, but rumors have always existed, especially about the epidemic. This rumor has come again, and some rumors that have been rumored will come back after a while, and every rumor, no matter how outrageous, will always be believed by my family." Pan Ying said.

　　Recently, news about Covid-19 Omicron mutant XBB has been rampant. The latest news shows that the introduction of a new strain XBB.1.5 has been detected in Shanghai. At present, there are many rumors about XBB.1.5 on the Internet, especially a screen shot circulating on the Internet platform, saying that all the strains prevalent in China are the younger brother of XBB.1.5, which mainly focuses on cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and will cause diarrhea. It is suggested that the public prepare montmorillonite powder, norfloxacin, rehydration salts, probiotics and so on. Shanghai rumor platform said that the screenshot exaggerated the pathogenicity of XBB.1.5, and did not rule out people with ulterior motives to promote products. Many doctors have warned not to take montmorillonite powder, norfloxacin and other drugs as mentioned in the screenshot at will.

　　In the investigation, the reporter found that since the epidemic prevention and control work was carried out, all kinds of information about the prevention and control of COVID-19 infection have always occupied an eye-catching position on social apps, websites and other network platforms, including many old and new rumors. Moreover, the rumors related to the epidemic have different distribution characteristics in different stages of the epidemic development, reflecting the changes in public sentiment and demand, which may make people have a wrong understanding of COVID-19 infection and adopt wrong means in the process of preventing and treating COVID-19, thus affecting the normal epidemic prevention and control work.

　　The Public Opinion Center of the Rule of Law Network conducted a public opinion analysis on Internet rumors about epidemic diseases caused by high fever, and found that social platforms have become a "Petri dish" for rumors about epidemic diseases. Most rumors about epidemic diseases come from social platforms and spread mainly through chat groups, friends circle, WeChat official account and video numbers, among which chat groups and friends circle are the main positions for communication. This is because the "strong relationship" social circle has the characteristics of privacy, closure, agglomeration, etc. The privacy of the acquaintance relationship chain makes it difficult to track the process of information production and forwarding, and at the same time, the credibility and forwarding volume of rumors are greatly increased, thus achieving cross-group and cross-platform communication. In addition, all kinds of short video platforms have become the new "source" of online rumors. The presence and authenticity of short videos increase the persuasiveness of rumors and often mislead the public to believe them.

　　Why are some publishers keen to fabricate rumors? The Network Security Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security has revealed this, and there will be advertisements inserted under the content released by the rumors or in the comment area. The more traffic advertisers are exposed and clicked, the more revenue they will get. "It can be said that every time you click, the rumor maker can make money."

　　Yin Kang said that many of his friends and family members feel that forwarding this information at will can remind more people, and it is a positive energy behavior. Even if it is false, it will not cause any losses to others. As a result, it has become a disseminator who has expanded the scope of rumors unconsciously.

　　Hair under the guise of official name

　　The platform is responsible for governance.

　　Recently, a notice claiming to be from "President of Changzhou Red Cross Society" spread widely. According to the notice, if brown sugar, ginger, scallion and garlic are boiled in water, the probability of being infected with the virus is almost zero. Li Lei of Heze City, Shandong Province has also received an "anti-epidemic prescription" from his old mother at home. However, Li Lei’s online verification found that the screenshot had been spread on the Internet as early as February 2020. At that time, the staff of Changzhou Red Cross Society rumored that the organization and the president had not released the above information.

　　"Most of them can be seen as rumors at a glance, and even a large part of them have been rumored by the government and proved to be rumors. I wonder why many rumors have been repeatedly banned, and some people are convinced of the rumors that have been rumored." Li Lei said.

　　Pan Ying said that she saw many rumors, all of which were published under the guise of official organizations. "I used to receive short messages informing me of nucleic acid testing and the health code turning red, which said that they were sent by the CDC and left a phone number. Some of them were true and some were false, so many people were cheated, which led me to doubt their authenticity as long as I saw the epidemic-related text messages now."

　　"There are too many rumors. We may remember them for a while after rumors, but we are not professionals. Most people may forget them in a month or two, and it is difficult to distinguish similar rumors when they come again." Pan Ying said.

　　According to Li Junhui, a special researcher at the Intellectual Property Research Center of China University of Political Science and Law, there are three main reasons for the repeated prohibition of epidemic-related rumors. First, epidemic-related information is the focus of public attention, which is related to the individual’s concern about how to avoid being infected and how to deal with it after infection. Second, it is related to the insufficient, untimely and incomplete release of epidemic-related information in some areas, because real information can not meet or solve public concerns, and it will naturally be attracted by some false information; Third, the information of epidemic-related rumors has the characteristics of confirmation, illustration or difficulty in distinguishing authenticity, which makes the relevant information easily misinformed and further misinformed.

　　What kind of responsibility may the rumor-monger bear for spreading rumors about the epidemic?

　　Ai Hongqiang, a lawyer of Beijing Jingshi (Quanzhou) Law Firm, told reporters that according to the Law on Public Security Administration Punishment, those who spread rumors, lied about dangerous situations, epidemics, police situations or deliberately disturbed public order by other means will face detention and fines. If a citizen’s personal reputation right is infringed by spreading rumors, according to relevant regulations, the infringer will bear the responsibility of stopping the infringement, restoring the reputation, eliminating the influence, apologizing and compensating for the losses. In addition, making and spreading epidemic rumors may also bear criminal responsibility.

　　At the end of November last year, the Central Network Information Office reported that in view of the recent rumors in the fields of epidemic prevention and control, emergencies, and people’s livelihood, it urged and guided the website platform to strengthen monitoring and verification, and the key website platforms handled more than 5,400 accounts for spreading rumors on the Internet, which was the first time. Trace the source and close the initial account.

　　Experts interviewed by reporters believe that the network platform has an unshirkable responsibility for the governance of epidemic-related information.

　　Li Junhui believes that the network platform should classify information, and make clear what belongs to the simple sharing of individual experiences and what belongs to the misleading information release. For all kinds of information released by users on the platform, a review and judgment mechanism should be established in time, and the experience sharing review with high similarity in information content should be strengthened to avoid spreading false epidemic-related information and causing public panic. For the release of rescue information, it is necessary to ensure that the rescue information can be released normally, and also to prevent criminals from simply copying and applying other people’s help information for release, which will affect public judgment.

　　The relevant staff of Tik Tok Platform told reporters that recently, during routine inspections, the platform found that a very small number of users posted content without medical basis, such as "COVID-19’s remedies for reducing fever — — Boiled soybean water to drink ","Smoked mugwort leaves and moxa sticks can wipe out Covid-19 ","Never eat food when you have a fever, including eggs and milk "and so on. The above contents have been refuted by authoritative media and medical experts. In this regard, the platform has given a continuous blow and treatment. Since November 2022, the platform has handled 332,600 false videos related to the epidemic and marked more than 200,000 suspicious contents.

　　Timely release of authoritative information

　　Crack down on epidemic rumors according to law

　　Recently, Shanghai Rumor-dispelling Platform has sorted out the recent rumors, classified them according to four major themes: prevention, symptoms, treatment and life, and attached suggestions and opinions from medical experts and authoritative organizations, hoping to present a practical "prevention and control book" for the public.

　　The reporter found that by searching for "epidemic situation" or switching to the "anti-epidemic" column on Tik Tok’s homepage, users can enter the epidemic prevention rumor area in Tik Tok and check the relevant knowledge; When Baidu searches with keywords such as "COVID-19" and "epidemic situation", there will also be a rumor-dispelling area and a national epidemic prevention hot search list to give users more scientific guidance.

　　The relevant departments have been taking action to crack down on rumors related to the epidemic.

　　Publishing and spreading false epidemic-related information through the Internet and deliberately creating and spreading epidemic-related rumors have seriously affected the normal public order. Hubei public security organs severely cracked down according to law and seriously investigated the relevant legal responsibilities of publishers, forwarders, group owners, administrators and other personnel.

　　On October 8, 2022, Huang, a citizen of Jianli City, Hubei Province, spread rumors about the epidemic in many social groups. Hu, a citizen of the city, forwarded it to his personal short video account without verification and spread again. The behavior of the two people caused panic among local residents and caused adverse effects. The Hongcheng Police Station in Jianli City organized a police investigation, quickly found the communicators Huang and Hu, and carried out legal education for them. The two clarified the rumor. In the end, the violator Huang was sentenced to five days’ administrative detention and Hu was sentenced to a fine of 200 yuan.

　　In November last year, the Network Information Office of Yulin Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China and the Public Security Bureau of Yulin City of Shaanxi Province issued the Notice on Combating and Rectifying Internet Rumors Related to the Epidemic in accordance with the Law, prohibiting the compilation and distribution of false information and resolutely resisting online rumors. Website platforms, media people and Internet group administrators should strictly review the sources and contents of information related to the epidemic. If publishing and disseminating false information through the Internet has caused serious social impact, online letters and public security organs will crack down on relevant websites, platforms and Internet accounts according to laws and regulations.

　　Recently, Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province officially issued a notice, and the information related to the epidemic is subject to the official information released by the epidemic prevention and control headquarters at all levels in the city. For the information related to the epidemic that has not been officially confirmed, it is not published, disseminated, commented, believed, rumored or spread. What has been published should be deleted immediately to actively eliminate the adverse social impact. If it cannot be deleted, it is necessary to promptly dispel rumors and take the initiative to explain the situation to the public.

　　According to Hu Gang, Deputy Secretary-General of internet society of china Legal Work Committee, at present, China has built a legal system of epidemic reporting, notification and publication, which is mainly based on the law on the prevention and control of infectious diseases and emergency regulations for public health emergencies, and a legal system of online rumor management, which is mainly based on the Civil Code, the Criminal Law, the Law on Public Security Administration Punishment, the E-commerce Law, the Network Security Law, and the Internet information service management measures, and has continuously carried out special actions such as "clearing and cracking down on online rumors and false information" to supervise the website platform to effectively perform information content management.

　　How can we make the rumors about the epidemic no longer "outcrop"?

　　Li Junhui said that in order to accurately crack down on false or rumor information related to the epidemic, it is necessary to have real and scientific information release subjects or strengthen the linkage between the regulatory authorities and platforms, and subjects with information screening ability and conditions should participate in the review of information release on various platforms to control rumor information release from the source. In addition, it is necessary to strengthen the big data analysis of information released by users, refine the focus of users’ attention, and timely release authoritative information to respond, so as to relieve or reduce public concerns. Those who are suspected of deliberately creating and spreading false information shall be investigated for legal responsibility according to law.

　　Hu Gang suggested that the early warning system of infectious diseases and the information disclosure system of infectious diseases should be improved, and the national information on legal infectious diseases should be regularly published by China CDC, and the disease control institutions at or above the county level should regularly publish information on legal infectious diseases in their respective administrative regions. When an infectious disease breaks out and is prevalent, the competent health department of the local people’s government at or above the county level shall publish the epidemic information within its administrative area; When infectious diseases break out and spread across provinces, the competent department of health in the State Council shall be responsible for the announcement. At the same time, to improve the website platform’s ability to accurately control the rumors of epidemic-related networks, Internet industry associations can build information sharing and joint punishment mechanisms, and those who repeatedly maliciously publish rumors can be punished by releasing information within a limited time or prohibiting the release.

　　Double 11 just closed. On November 15th, Ali (HK09988, share price of HK$ 87.20, market value of HK$ 1.67 trillion) handed over the report card of the second quarter of fiscal year 2025 (the quarter ending September 30th, 2024).

　　The financial report shows that in this quarter, Ali’s income was 236.503 billion yuan, up 5% year-on-year, and the net profit attributable to ordinary shareholders was 43.874 billion yuan.

　　In the e-commerce business that has attracted much attention, in this quarter, the growth of GMV on Amoy Antenna was driven by the double-digit year-on-year growth of order volume, which was mainly driven by the increase of purchase frequency and partly offset by the decrease of average order amount.

"In terms of investment, there will be many ways. First, we will broaden the supply advantages, such as price power, new products and brands with competitive advantages, and we will also provide users with a better user experience."

　　He also mentioned that he will continue to invest in the technology platform, especially in the computing power investment of e-commerce. There are many AI-related products under development, and these AI-related products will need to use relatively strong AI computing power.

　　In addition, Ali further mentioned the value of 88VIP in the financial report. According to him, 88VIP members are the consumer groups with the highest purchasing power, and their number continued to increase by double digits year-on-year this quarter, reaching 46 million.

　　Ali mentioned that high-end consumers are loyal customers who can increase the frequency of purchase and promote the growth of GMV. Therefore, it is committed to continuously increasing the number of 88VIP members by enhancing the investment in membership rights and services.

　　It is worth mentioning that in September, Taobao announced that it would gradually open WeChat payment to all Taobao Tmall merchants after September 12.

　　In this regard, in the analyst conference call, Ali executives said that after accessing WeChat payment, they have high expectations for user growth and will make relatively medium-and long-term investment in user growth and retention. "The future is a relatively large investment direction." He said that Taotian is still in the investment period at this stage, and will continue to pay attention to investment efficiency at this stage, and at the same time make better and greater investments by improving CMR.

　　It is worth mentioning that, in this quarter, Taotiantian is trying to better balance the relationship with merchants, regardless of the direction of collecting basic software service fees based on GMV, loosening the "refund only" and investing, and has made a lot of efforts to improve the experience of merchants on the platform. In this year’s "double 11", Taotian is no longer blindly "rolling in low prices", and its attention to middle and high-end consumers such as 88VIP is also rising, which shows that it is competing with Pinduoduo’s low-price route in a dislocation way.

　　In this conference call, Ali executives mentioned: "I think this year is a turning point. For brand owners, they will really choose a platform that can bring them more sales, rather than simply putting in a growth. Under this circumstance, Taobao Tmall’s advantage in obtaining brand budgets will expand in the future. "

　　According to the financial report, the customer management revenue of China retail business of Taotian Group increased by 2% year-on-year, mainly due to the growth of online GMV.

　　In the overseas e-commerce business, Ali’s investment is still not small. In this quarter, the revenue of Ali International Digital Business Group increased by 29% year-on-year, and the economic benefit of AliExpress Choice business unit improved month-on-month.

　　However, in this quarter, the adjusted EBITA (profit before interest, tax and amortization) of the international digital business group was a loss of RMB 2.905 billion, compared with a loss of RMB 384 million in the same period of 2023, which was mainly due to the increase in investment in AliExpress and Trendyol’s cross-border business, partly offset by the significant reduction in operating losses caused by the improvement of Lazada’s liquidity rate and operational efficiency.

　　Affected by cross-border business, rookie revenue increased by 8% year-on-year to 24.647 billion yuan this quarter, mainly due to the growth of cross-border logistics service revenue.

　　While increasing investment in e-commerce business, the financial report shows that in this quarter, the losses of local life group and big entertainment group both narrowed year-on-year, and the business operation efficiency was optimized in a planned and rhythmic manner. At the same time, hungry, high-tech orders increased, and business scale increased.

　　Will e-commerce turn from "low price war" to "AI war"?

　　In this quarter’s financial report, the presence of AI is still not low.

　　Ali’s financial report mentioned that focusing on the integrated development of "Cloud +AI", Alibaba Cloud’s commercial income growth accelerated, and its quarterly income increased by 7% year-on-year. It is worth noting that it continues to be driven by the double-digit growth of public clouds, and the revenue of AI-related products has achieved three-digit year-on-year growth for five consecutive quarters; Adjusted EBITA increased by 89% year-on-year.

　　On the conference call, Ali executives even said: "We believe that the prelude of the AI ? ? era has only started at a high level, and it is still in the early stage of API reform. The imagination of AI for the future will not be limited to mobile phone screens, but will reshape the digital world, which will eventually affect or even change all walks of life in the physical world."

　　According to the reporter’s understanding, Ali’s "AI-driven" strategy has been launched for one year, and many businesses under Ali have launched AI. In the e-commerce business alone, many products have been launched.

　　When Ali released this financial report, he mentioned that Taobao launched AI products as "business stewards" for all businesses. This year, "double 11" has served 4 million businesses and helped small and medium-sized businesses generate more than 100 million products and marketing materials. Ali also mentioned that the penetration rate of the AI-driven marketing tool "all-site promotion" has steadily increased, helping businesses to improve marketing efficiency and further improve the level of commercialization in a rhythm.

　　In addition, on October 28th, Ali International Station comprehensively upgraded AI foreign trade products. According to the data provided by Ali International Station, at present, more than 60,000 small and medium-sized enterprises around the world are using the AI products of Ali International Station, and the scale of products released by AI has reached 7 million. Recently, Ali International also launched Accio, the world’s first AI Search engine in B2B field, which is open to global businesses and officially entered the AI Search circuit.

　　According to reports, users can use "vernacular" to ask about AI and put forward demands. Accio will take the initiative to sort out and understand what users really want through many rounds of dialogues, and disassemble demands, investigate the market and give suggestions through professional B2B industry knowledge, so as to screen suppliers and recommend goods more accurately, and provide one-stop intelligent procurement services like a truly professional agent.

　　In fact, many platforms have launched AI search products recently. Will the emergence of AI products bring new changes to the e-commerce world?

　　Pan Helin, a member of the Information and Communication Economy Expert Committee of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, told the national business daily that AI search has two functions, one is to help users find answers to some difficult questions or search links. Another function is to guide the links that Ali and Tik Tok want users to see in the optional search results. Therefore, this can bring traffic to e-commerce and content platforms, which is a new idea for e-commerce development at present.

　　In the eyes of the industry, the changes that AI can bring to the e-commerce world are indeed not only as simple as reducing costs and increasing efficiency. Zhuang Shuai, the founder of Bailian Consulting, told national business daily that AI is reshaping e-commerce. In his view, AI can not only (enhance) the attractiveness of merchants, but also bring about changes in profit model (service income can be greatly improved), and improve the efficiency of new product research and development, improve differentiated supply and reduce price competition.

　　It is worth mentioning that while successively launching AI products and rushing to invest in AI startups, there has even been a war of grabbing people between Internet platforms.

　　On November 13th, according to the science and technology innovation board Journal, it was reported that Zhou Chang, a former employee of ali tong Yida Model, had violated the non-competition agreement, and Ali had sued and submitted an application for labor dispute arbitration. After Zhou Chang left his post in July this year, some media reported that Zhou Chang had joined Byte in August to work on AI big model. In the long run, after the low-price war, the AI ? ? war between major Internet will also affect the ranking of major e-commerce platforms in the e-commerce world.

　　For Ali, the whole fiscal year of 2025 is over half, and the highlight "double 11" has also ended. Under the leadership of the management, Taotian has made a shift in business strategy and further interconnection, but on the whole, Ali is still increasing investment in e-commerce business, and it is still inconclusive how many positive effects these new measures can bring to Taotian, which was originally trapped in stock competition. However, judging from the external expression of the management, after a short period of reflection, Ali’s confidence in the future has returned.

Original grumpy little doctor Tencent medical code　

In Chinese over 60 years old, osteoporosis has reached 56%[1].

However, there is one disease that is more frequent than it-senile foot disease, the prevalence rate is as high as 87%, which seriously threatens the health of our parents [2,3].

However, only 7.3% people will take foot disease seriously and consult a doctor [4].

As the saying goes, "people get old when they are old", and when they get old, their legs and feet are awkward at first.

Time and tide wait for no man

With the increase of age, the muscle strength of the foot is weakened, the elasticity of ligaments becomes worse, or due to unsuitable shoes, it is easy to have problems such as arch collapse and hallux valgus [1-3]. As a result, the load-bearing capacity of both feet decreases.

(Made by myself)

2. Poor foot care

Old people, bad eyes, inflexible fingers, and inability to bend over will all lead to a common result-

Give up the care of your feet.

(Made by myself)

If the toenails are too long to be trimmed or washed, it may lead to problems such as too long and thick toenails and onychomycosis.

The most common foot diseases of the elderly are [6]:

Hypertrophy of toenails (41.3%)

Hallux valgus (commonly known as "big foot bone") (28.7%)

Dry skin (26.0%)

Corns and calluses (commonly known as calluses) (24.0%)

These problems will lead to a common consequence-

If you can’t walk steadily, you will fall easily.

Many elderly people are relatively fat, and their feet are heavily burdened when walking, which makes them easy to hurt, increasing the risk of falls and fractures.

Moreover, osteoporosis is a common disease in the elderly, and it is more likely to lead to hip fracture when falling-it is called "the last fracture in life" (the mortality rate of hip fracture is as high as 22%~30%, even 50%[7-9]).

American gerontologist Hazzard said: "A clear head and a pair of feet that can move freely can make the elderly live better." [5]

Inappropriate shoes are one of the reasons why the elderly fall, and more than 70% of the elderly have inappropriate shoes [10]. So, what are the main situations in which shoes are not suitable?

1. The shoes are too narrow

Toes and soles are squeezed for a long time, so that the forefoot is deformed, hallux valgus and little toe are deformed, which will be very painful.

(Made by myself)

2. The shoes are too short

It will bend the toes, which will be deformed after a long time (that is, hammer toes or claw toes).

(Made by myself)

The skin on the instep is squeezed, slowly forming a hard cocoon, which is painful and swollen.

Diabetic elderly people with poor blood sugar control are also prone to serious infections.

Let me say one thing first:

The so-called "shoes for the elderly" should be bought carefully to avoid paying the "filial piety tax".

Many "shoes for the elderly" are branded as breathable, spacious, soft, non-squeezing, and non-slip, and can even be like twisting a towel.

(Made by myself)

But in fact, the softer the shoes, the better. Shoes that can be easily twisted are easy to deform and lack support for the arch.

When buying shoes for the elderly, we should follow the principle of "wide front, tough middle and hard heel".

Specifically, the elderly should pay attention to these three points when choosing shoes:

1. The sole has anti-slip design.

Older people’s physical balance ability becomes worse, and the perception of pressure on the soles of their feet decreases, which will increase the risk of falling when walking [5].

Therefore, it is necessary to choose a non-slip design for the sole.

2. Hard soles with sufficient support

Shoes that are too soft, such as old cloth shoes, lack sufficient support at the arch, and it is easy to feel uncomfortable when walking too much, and the feet are tired, sore and painful; Encountering a gravel road will also increase the risk of falling [11,12].

Hard-soled shoes can increase the safety and stability of the elderly when walking [13].

The middle toughness of shoes should be moderate, and you can try to twist them by hand. It is not good to twist them too easily or completely.

The heel also needs to have a certain height, at least 1.5~2.5 cm, which can disperse the pressure on the sole of the foot.

3. The vamp should be breathable, warm and loose.

Old people’s feet have poor blood circulation and are prone to cold feet, pain, blue skin and other symptoms [11].

Buying a pair of breathable, warm and loose shoes is comfortable and easy to wear, and it can also reduce the incidence of nail malnutrition and fungal infection (commonly known as beriberi) [5].

It can be a little bigger, leaving about 1 cm in front of the toes, so that the toes have enough room to move.

In addition, when the elderly buy shoes, there are three tips:

1. It’s best not to buy it by children or online shopping, but to try it yourself.

Bring socks and insoles that you usually wear. Feel it on your feet and experience walking, running and jumping in the store to choose the shoes that suit you best.

It’s best to buy it in the afternoon

Affected by gravity and venous reflux, people’s feet are usually bigger in the afternoon than in the morning.

Trying on shoes in the morning will hurt your feet in the afternoon [5].

Don’t bother, try more pairs.

Old people often encounter two feet with different sizes, for example, one foot has severe hallux valgus, or the arch of both feet collapses to different degrees.

This requires trying on a few more pairs and finding shoes that are comfortable for both feet. Or put an arch support pad on a shoe.
