Dali Erhai Pollution Control Restaurant has been closed for one year, and some of it has been transformed and opened.

   Yunnan Net News (Reporter Xiong Qiang Zhao Lihao) On March 31 last year, Dali City, Yunnan Province issued the "Notice on Special Renovation of Catering Inn Service Industry in the Core Area of Erhai River Basin Water Ecological Protection Zone", announcing the demarcation of the core area. It is required that before April 10, including the core area and the Erhai natural village around the lake where the red line in the core area passes, all relevant catering and inn operators will suspend business by themselves and accept business licenses, environmental protection and other inspections.

  As a result, nearly 2,000 inns and restaurants in Erhai Lake were shut down, which was called the strictest rectification in history, and the poems and distant places of netizens all the way to the west were temporarily put on hold. Nowadays, a year has passed in a hurry. For inns and restaurants, it is a process of waiting for rebirth in pain.

  Shuanglang Town, located on the northeast bank of Erhai Lake, has been visited by tourists from all over the country every year because of the beautiful scenery of the fishing village, and it is hard to find a room on holidays. However, since April last year, in order to protect the water ecological environment of Erhai Lake Basin, Dali has carried out special rectification of the catering inn service industry in the core area, and Shuanglang Town has shut down and reformed the inns and catering industry within its jurisdiction. The bustling scene in the past no longer exists, and it has been replaced by construction pollution control.

  On the evening of May 9, it was reported that some inns in Shuanglang Town had been rebuilt and started to resume operation after hanging the "green card" issued by the government. On the morning of May 10th, Shi Guodong, deputy director of Shuanglang Ancient Town Scenic Area Management Committee, confirmed the news to the reporter.

  According to Shi Guodong, there are 628 registered inns and restaurants in Shuanglang Town, of which 80 have reached the standard of resuming business, including 53 inns and 27 restaurants. As of May 9th, 7 inns and 2 restaurants have officially opened. "In addition to the land certificate, planning certificate, business administration certificate, environmental guarantee, food hygiene and safety certificate, public security fire protection certificate and industry license, the opened inn catering industry also needs to install electronic tax control equipment and public security gold and silicon system." He said that for business households that meet the requirements, they still need to meet six indicators to pass the acceptance and publicity of Shuanglang Town, and these six indicators mainly involve sewage treatment, landscape improvement, fee collection, tax system, gold and silicon system and smart tourism.

  Shi Guodong further explained that for business operators who intend to resume business, it is necessary to ensure the normal operation of environmental protection facilities and do a good job in sewage collection, treatment and entering the municipal pipe network; Transform the buildings it manages into more beautiful and tidy; Pay the sewage treatment and garbage removal fees in full according to the standard; Install electronic tax control equipment in time; Open the gold-silicon system and cooperate with the public security to manage foreign personnel; All business households must also combine "global tourism" and "a mobile phone tour Yunnan smart tourism" to set aside ports to ensure docking when the APP is opened.

  Shuanglang "Xieyu Luozhou Inn" obtained the permission to resume business on May 8, and the green sign of "Resume Business" has been hung on the gate of the inn. Ms. Li, the person in charge of the inn, told the reporter that since the inn was closed for rectification, sewage and water purification facilities have been installed, and at the same time, the landscape of the inn has been upgraded, including the newly added green garden on the top floor, which cost more than 200,000 yuan. For these expenses, Ms. Li thinks it is worth it, because she wants to make the inn fine and fine, and at the same time create a good reputation. With a huge cost, will the hotel accommodation price increase? Ms. Li said that she still charges at the original price and will not raise the price.

  "It has reached the discharge standard and it is acceptable to start business." Mr. Zhao, a native of Dali, said after learning that the restaurant in Shuanglang was about to resume operation, he hoped that Shuanglang would be strictly planned and no new inn restaurants would be built. He believes that there is no water source injected into Erhai Lake in Haidong, and the pressure of sewage discharge will increase if there are too many people, which is easy to cause pollution and the tourism experience is poor, so it is necessary to limit the flow appropriately.

  Li Meng (not his real name), who lives in Shuanglang, said that during the renovation period, all the restaurants and restaurants in the inn were closed, and there was no place to eat, drink and have fun with friends when he got home on holiday. It is obvious to all that the environment of the Double Corridor is getting better now. The stone road on the main street, the greening along the roadside and the buildings at the entrance of the village are completely different from the past. The green algae in Erhai Lake were gone before. She hopes that this rectification can be thorough and avoid repeated tossing.

  Talking about the scenery of the Double Corridor, the "big head" of tourists from other provinces is still full of interest. A few years ago, he and his friends traveled by car and experienced the experience of "parking for one night in 50 yuan" in this small town. He hoped that the renovated Double Corridor would not only change the environment, but also need to be improved in terms of infrastructure facilities and service capabilities, so as to keep the hearts of tourists.

At the same time, China is actively exploring new markets and optimizing the global market layout.

ASEAN has become China’s largest trading partner.

In the first half of the year, China’s imports and exports to ASEAN, the European Union, the United States and Japan were 2.66 trillion yuan, 2.52 trillion yuan, 2.21 trillion yuan and 1.18 trillion yuan, up 27.8%, 26.7%, 34.6% and 14.5% respectively.

Is the frequent quality problems of Lexus behind the shutdown of CT200h the main reason?

  As early as many years ago, in order to make up for the shortcomings of Toyota’s high-end brand Lexus in compact models, CT200h was introduced to enhance its overall competitiveness. However, according to the sales data, from the launch of the CT200h to the first quarter of this year, the global cumulative sales volume is only about 267,000 vehicles. In this big market of China, the sales volume of the CT200h accounts for less than 10% of the total sales volume of Lexus. It can be seen that this entry-level car, which has been launched for nearly six years, has not brought surprises to Lexus.

  ▲ The sales volume is not satisfactory, and the production of CT200h is discontinued.

  Perhaps the sales volume is not satisfactory. According to reliable sources, the CT200h will face production suspension, and Alain Uyrrenhoven, president of Lexus Europe, revealed that "the CT200h will be replaced by a hybrid small SUV". Of course, if we study why the CT200h stopped production according to the meaning of Lexus, we may only think that the SUV market is overheated and the cars are not popular, but is this really the case?

  As we all know, compared with British finidi and Acura, Lexus, as a member of Japanese luxury Three Musketeers, has performed strongly in the market with its excellent quality and good service. Therefore, when the compact car CT200h, which started at more than 200,000 yuan, was launched, many people began to worry that it would more or less destroy the long-standing good image of Lexus.

  ▲ Hidden quality hazards affect the brand image, or become the main reason for the shutdown of CT200h.

  Because it is a hybrid of oil and electricity, CT200h is excellent in fuel economy, and its bold design also shows the charm of Lexus. However, in details, CT200h really proves the truth of "a penny gets a share". First of all, in terms of materials, CT200h’s materials are very general, the suspension is hard and the comfort is average.

  A criticism that is particularly worth mentioning is the sound insulation effect of CT200h h. It has been reported by the media that when the speed reaches above 80km/h, the noise inside the CT200h is as high as 79dB(70-90 dB is noisy and nerve cells are destroyed), which has seriously interfered with the driver’s driving and the safety hazard is very obvious.

  In addition, a friend of Xiaobian’s car owner said that the CT200h he was driving had many problems, especially the abnormal brake noise. When Xiaobian searched online for the abnormal brake noise of CT200h, there was almost a buzz on the Internet. What’s more, some car owners couldn’t wait to show the abnormal brake noise in less than three or four days, which was really a headache.

  Therefore, Xiao Bian guessed that the CT200h had the idea of stopping production because of its poor sound insulation effect and abnormal sound, which was not conducive to the establishment of a good brand image.

  ▲ frequent and numerous recalls, but ineffective and negative?

  Originally, I wanted to fill the gap in the compact car market. Clinker CT200h, an entry-level model, did not give force, did not bring surprises to Lexus, and more or less brought some panic. So, is it the best choice to stop production of CT200h to reverse Gankun and re-establish the brand image?

  In fact, in view of the defects of vehicles, car companies will start a recall plan to improve the problems of vehicles. Although Lexus has not implemented a recall for abnormal noise, Lexus has started a recall plan before because of the hidden dangers of fuel leakage and airbags, involving 37,423 vehicles, including CT200h.

  The number of recalls is amazing, but this is not the problem of this recall. Xiaobian asked the owner’s friend. When he told him that his CT200h was going to be recalled for inspection and maintenance, he said he didn’t know. When he called the local 4S shop, the staff of the 4S shop admitted that his vehicle needed to be recalled. In other words, even if Lexus started the recall plan, it did not take the initiative to contact the owner for inspection and maintenance, but the owner reflected that the 4S shop admitted it. Does such a poor and negative service attitude really come from Lexus?

  Coincidentally, another incident deserves our attention. A car owner once made a complaint on the car complaint network. He said that his newly bought 2014 lexus ES300 had just driven for 200 kilometers when the ABS fault light called the police, and the brake pedal didn’t respond at all. He was asked to replace the ABS controller assembly after going to the 4S shop for inspection.

  The description of this problem coincides with the reason stated in Lexus’ recall regulations in April this year. The recall was as follows: due to the manufacturing reasons of a specific supplier, the oil pressure required for braking anti-lock braking system (ABS) and body stability control system (VSC) may not be provided normally, which may affect the driving stability of the vehicle and have potential safety hazards, and a total of 15,322 lexus ES200, ES250 and RX200t vehicles were recalled.

  Putting the owner’s complaint together with the Lexus recall, we found that the owner’s ES300 also had the problems mentioned in the recall, but the ES300 was not within the scope of the recall!

  Summary:Now, due to various quality problems, the CT200h is already in water under the bridge, and it has to stop production on the pretext of "good SUV market prospects". Apart from the tragic product CT200h, the frequent recalls of Lexus this year and the large number of them are really unsightly, but the negative and ineffective behaviors such as not notifying the owners in time and incomplete recalls are the facts that it is difficult to cover up when CT200h stops production.

From tomorrow, these new rules will affect your life and mine.

  19. Implement national requirements and increase the price deduction ratio for small and micro enterprises from 6%-10% to 10%-20%. When reviewing procurement projects or procurement packages that have not clearly reserved shares, encourage small and micro enterprises to deduct the price or increase the price score according to the upper limit.

  (six) the implementation of social security fees deferred payment policy.

  20. To implement the requirements of national policies, under the premise of ensuring that all social insurance benefits are paid in full and on time, all small and medium-sized enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households that have temporary difficulties in production and operation affected by the epidemic in eligible areas will be deferred in stages, and the deferral period will be implemented in stages until the end of this year.

  21. On the basis of the implementation of three policies of phased holdover of social insurance premiums for five poverty-stricken industries, such as catering, retail, tourism, civil aviation and highway, waterway and railway transportation, in accordance with the provisions of national policies, other poverty-stricken industries that have been severely affected by the epidemic, experienced difficulties in production and operation in a large area of the industry and are in line with the guidance of national industrial policies will be expanded to implement holdover policies, and the period of holdover of old-age insurance will be extended by stages to the end of this year.

  22. Implement social security payment subsidies for small and micro enterprises in manufacturing industry. This year, small and low-profit manufacturing enterprises registered and continuously operated in the province will be subsidized according to a certain proportion of the unit payment of basic old-age insurance premiums for enterprise employees. Subsidy funds that meet the requirements of the tax law are managed as non-taxable income, and are used by enterprises for social security contributions, employee benefits and other expenses.

  23. Simplify the handling process of social security fee holdover, clarify the identification standards for small and medium-sized enterprises and areas affected by the epidemic, implement the notification commitment system for applicable conditions such as production and operation difficulties, and promote the realization of holdover.

  (7) Increase the support for stabilizing posts.

  24. Optimize the implementation of the unemployment insurance return policy, and further increase the return ratio. Large enterprises will return 50% of the unemployment insurance premiums actually paid by enterprises and their employees last year, and small and medium-sized enterprises will return 90% of the unemployment insurance premiums actually paid by enterprises and their employees last year. Social organizations, foundations, social service agencies, law firms, accounting firms, and individual industrial and commercial households insured in the form of units shall refer to the implementation, and the policy implementation period is up to the end of this year. Large enterprises that have been returned by 30% before will make up the difference in time.

  25. Broaden the benefit range of unemployment insurance subsidies for staying in work, and expand the benefit range of one-time training subsidies for staying in work from small and medium-sized enterprises in areas with medium and high-risk epidemics to large enterprises, as well as enterprises in catering, retail, tourism, civil aviation and highway, waterway and railway transportation in areas without medium and high-risk epidemics. The implementation period is up to the end of this year.

  26. If an enterprise recruits college graduates in the graduation year, signs labor contracts and participates in unemployment insurance, it will issue a one-time job expansion subsidy according to the standard of 1,500 yuan per person, which will not be enjoyed repeatedly with the one-time employment subsidy.

foreword

From 1918 to 1919, Spanish influenza caused about 50 million deaths in the world, and it is still an ominous haze of public health. There are still many unanswered questions about the origin, such as unusual epidemiological characteristics and main pathogenic factors. Although we are now trying to overcome the spread of pandemics such as H5N1 or other viruses, the impact of the 1918 influenza on public health is still uncertain. The information of the 1918 influenza is still being updated, such as sequencing the whole genome from the autopsy in the archives, but the virus genome alone cannot answer the key questions. To understand the 1918 flu and its impact on the future, we need detailed experiments and in-depth historical analysis. Tip: The number of words in the full text is 7279, and it takes an average of 15 minutes to finish reading.

background

During the 1918-1919 flu, about one third of the world’s population (about 500 million people) was infected and developed clinical symptoms. The pandemic is more serious than expected. Compared with the mortality rate of other pandemics (< 0.1%), the mortality rate of influenza in 1918 was > 2.5%. It is estimated that the total death toll is about 50 million, and the pessimistic view is as high as 100 million.

The influence of 1918 influenza was not limited to 1918-1919. Since then, almost all influenza A (except avian influenza virus, such as H5N1 and H7N7) in the world are descendants of 1918 influenza virus, including drifting H1N1, recombinant H2N2 and H3N2. The latter is the integration of the key genes of the 1918 influenza by the later avian influenza, thus expressing new proteins. It can be said that the 1918 flu is the mother of all pandemics.In 1918, it was unclear how human influenza was related to avian influenza and swine flu. Although the clinical and epidemiological characteristics are similar to those of influenza pandemics in 1889, 1847 or even earlier, the high mortality rate makes many people wonder whether it should be called influenza. This problem was not solved until 1930, when the influenza virus (now called H1N1) was isolated from pigs, and later it was also isolated from humans. Seroepidemiological studies soon linked the virus with the 1918 flu. Subsequent research shows that the offspring of 1918 virus has always existed in pigs, and may still appear in humans continuously, experiencing the continuous iteration of antigenic drift, and leading to an annual epidemic outbreak until the 1950s. In 1957, a new H _ H2N2 epidemic (namely "Asian influenza") began to appear, and the H1N1 virus, the offspring of the 1918 virus, completely disappeared from the human circulation, although the related pedigree was still attached to pigs. But in 1977, it suddenly "reappeared" from the laboratory freezer and began to be popular among humans.
In 2006, two natural lineages and two recombinant lineages of the offspring of 1918 virus became popular: human H1N1, swine H1N1 (swine flu), recombinant human H3N2 and recombinant swine H3N2, but none of the offspring was close to the pathogenicity of 1918 virus. Swine strains H1N1 and H3N2 rarely infect humans, while the morbidity/mortality of human strains H1N1 and H3N2 are lower than that of 1918 virus.In fact, the fatality rate of natural H1N1 is even lower than that of H3N2 (prevalent since 1968). The H1N1 and H3N2 viruses originated from the 1918 influenza have been prevalent all over the world for 29 years, and there are almost no signs of extinction.

First, try to understand what happened?

By the early 1990s, 75 years of research had failed to answer the most basic question of the 1918 flu: Why was it so deadly? People didn’t isolate any virus from the 1918 influenza epidemic, but their descendants continued to invade humans slightly. A follow-up survey of influenza epidemic in the 1920s showed that in the years after 1918, influenza epidemic became an annual epidemic with low mortality due to gene drift. Did one genetic event greatly reduce the pathogenicity of the 1918 virus, and then another genetic event turned the 1918 virus into a weaker H1N1 virus?

In 1995, a scientific team determined the autopsy materials of influenza in the autumn of 1918 from the archives, and began a long sequencing experiment on small RNA virus fragments, so as to deduce the whole genome of the 1918 virus. At present, the whole genome of one virus and partial gene sequences of four other viruses have been determined. The above experiments and a series of other articles related to 1918 virus have confirmed that 1918 virus is most likely the ancestor of human/pig H1N1, H3N2 and extinct H2N2. No mutation related to the genome of 1918 virus has been found in other highly pathogenic influenza viruses of human or animals, but the continuous study on virulence factors has produced some interesting results. Nevertheless, the 1918 gene sequence data can not answer the origin and epidemiological characteristics of the virus.

Second,When and where did the 1918 flu begin to spread?

Before and after 1918, most influenza pandemics originated in Asia and spread all over the world.During the 12-month period from 1918 to 1919, the 1918 flu spread more or less simultaneously from three regions: Europe, Asia and North America (the first wave is thought to have started in the United States in March 1918). Historical and epidemiological data are not enough to identify the geographical origin of the virus, and the recent 1918 gene system research can not analyze the geographical origin.

Although there was no national influenza disease reporting system in 1918, and the diagnostic criteria for influenza and pneumonia were not clear, since December 1915, there was an epidemic of respiratory diseases in the United States, and the mortality rate of influenza and pneumonia rose sharply in 1915 and 1916, and then decreased slightly in 1917. The first wave of influenza pandemic appeared in the spring of 1918, and the second wave and the third wave of influenza pandemic with higher mortality rate appeared in the autumn of 1918 and the winter of 1919 respectively, as shown in Figure 1.

Is it possible that the weak-adaptability H1N1 virus had spread in 1915, and although there were some serious diseases, it had not caused a pandemic?At that time, data consistent with this was also reported from European military camps, but the opposite conclusion was given: if the virus strain with new hemagglutinin (HA) affected the mortality rate of influenza and pneumonia in the United States, it should have caused a pandemic long ago, and someone should be immunized or at least partially immunized by 1918. It is difficult to determine that the "pioneer" events of the 1918 flu came from 1915, 1916 or even early 1918.

Figure 1 Three waves of epidemics: the weekly mortality rate of influenza and pneumonia in Britain from 1918 to 1919.

Another unique feature of the 1918 influenza pandemic was that people and pigs were infected almost at the same time.The 1918 virus probably expressed a new subtype of antigenicity, which led to the low immunity of most people and pigs. Recently published genetic studies show that hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminic acid (NA) expressed by the 1918 virus gene were probably derived from the avian influenza virus shortly before the start of the pandemic, and the precursor virus failed to spread widely in humans or pigs for decades. More recent reports of the virus gene sequence and phylogenetic analysis of the virus also support this conclusion. Regression analysis of human/swine flu sequences from 1930 to the present shows that the precursor of 1918 virus first spread in humans from 1915 to 1918. Therefore, the precursor of the 1918 virus may have spread widely among humans before 1918, and so far no research has directly indicated the transition from any bird. In a word, its origin is still confusing.

Are the three waves of epidemics from the same virus?

Historical records since the 16th century show that a new influenza pandemic may occur at any time of the year, which is not necessarily the regular pattern in winter every year, because the behavior pattern most likely from the new influenza has been found among infected people. After that, these pandemic viruses began to drift in the face of the selective pressure of population immunity, and eventually the pattern of annual epidemic recurrence was triggered by drifting virus mutants.

During the 1918-1919 pandemic, the first spring tide began in March 1918 and spread to the United States, Europe and even Asia in different degrees in the next six months. The prevalence rate was very high, but the mortality rate in most areas was not significantly higher than the normal value. The second wave of autumn tide began in September-November, 1918, and it spread rapidly around the world and was fatal. The third wave of epidemic began in early 1919. According to the clinical similarity, some contemporary observers have come to the conclusion at the beginning that the three epidemics should be caused by the same disease: the mild symptoms in the three epidemics are the same, and they have the typical flu characteristics of the 1889 pandemic and earlier pandemics. However, in retrospect, there are few cases in which the first wave of spring tide developed rapidly from simple influenza to fatal pneumonia, and fatal pneumonia is the symbol of the last two waves of epidemic tide; Comparatively speaking, the frequency of complex, serious and fatal cases in the last two waves will be higher.

It is unprecedented for three large-scale epidemics to occur in a year. To some extent, the antigenic drift of the virus is the reason why it keeps recurring every year, and an antigenic virus variant appears about every 2 ~ 3 years. If there is no drift characteristic, once the immunity of human/livestock reaches the critical threshold, the influenza virus may disappear, and under this critical threshold, the further spread of the virus is limited. For decades, people have been speculating about the time and space between influenza pandemics. In addition to human/livestock immune restrictions, the factors of virus transmission include low ambient temperature, nasal cavity temperature (which is beneficial to heat-labile viruses, such as influenza), suitable humidity, indoor congestion and poor ventilation.
However, none of the above factors can explain the three waves of epidemic in 1918-1919, which occurred in spring and summer, summer and autumn and winter respectively. The first two waves occur at the time of unfavorable influenza transmission every year; The second wave broke out in the northern hemisphere/southern hemisphere from September to November; In addition, the period between epidemic tides is so short that it is almost impossible to detect in some areas. It is difficult for epidemiology to explain the sharp decline of cases between the first wave and the second wave, and the sharp rise of cases between the second wave and the third wave. Even assuming that the acquired immunity after infection is short-lived, there are too few susceptible people to maintain the spread at one point. How can a new explosive pandemic be triggered in a few weeks? Will the virus mutate completely at the same time in almost a short time around the world?
However, according to scientific experience, it takes several years for influenza virus to spread globally, not just a few weeks. Moreover, even the mutant that has drifted will take several months to spread around the world. Other influenza pandemics have not been reported continuously within one year. For example, the 1889 flu began in the late spring of 1889, and it took several months to spread around the world, reaching its peak in northern Europe and the United States in late 1889 or early 1890; The second recurrence occurred in late spring of 1891 (one year late) and the third in early 1892. Like the 1918 flu, more people died when the second epidemic wave recurred, but the spread time of the three epidemics in 1889-1892 was more than three years, while the spread time of the successive epidemics in 1918-1919 was compressed to August-September.The ability of the 1918 influenza to rapidly develop a continuous pandemic is still unknown. Because the autopsy materials we identified only came from the second wave of 1918 influenza, it is inconclusive whether the first wave or the third wave also came from the same virus or mutant. The experimental data show that the second wave of infected people may have obtained immune protection during the third wave of epidemic, but the data is not enough to support whether the second/third wave of infected people obtained immune protection from the first wave of epidemic, nor can they answer the question whether the three waves of epidemic came from the same virus or mutant. Only by getting the RNA positive samples of infected people before 1918 and the three waves of epidemic in 1918 can we answer this question.

4. Did the 1918 virus host come from animals?

The data of 1918 virus gene sequence shows that the whole genome may be new to human beings in 1918 or not long ago. It was not produced by recombining one or more new genes from previous viruses (unlike the 1957 or 1968 epidemic). On the contrary, the 1918 virus seems to be derived from an unknown source of avian influenza virus (eight gene fragments are different from the current avian influenza genes). The gene sequence of influenza virus collected from wild bird specimens around 1918 is not much different from that of today’s avian influenza virus, which indicates that even for a long time, the antigenic changes of avian influenza virus may hardly occur in natural reservoir.

For example, the sequence of 1918 nucleoprotein (NP) gene is similar to the virus in wild birds in amino acid level, but it is very different in nucleotide level, which indicates that the source of 1918 nucleoprotein is far from the virus nucleoprotein in wild birds at present. One way to check the evolutionary distance of genes is to compare the ratio of synonymous nucleotides to non-synonymous nucleotides. Synonymous substitution means that the nucleotide change in the sequence will not lead to amino acid substitution; Non-synonymous substitution means that nucleotide changes will lead to amino acid substitution. Generally speaking, viruses under immune drift pressure or adapting to new hosts show a larger proportion of non-synonymous mutations, while viruses under minimal pressure mainly accumulate synonymous substitutions, which are considered to reflect the evolutionary distance.

Because the 1918 influenza virus gene fragments known from wild birds have more synonymous substitutions than expected, they are unlikely to come directly from viruses similar to avian influenza virus. One of them is particularly obvious. When people check the 4-fold degenerate codons (a subset of synonymous substitutions), they find that the third codon can replace any of the 4 nucleotides without changing the amino acids. At the same time, although the 1918 virus has been adapted to the intermediate host of human/pig for many years, the amino acid level of its sequence is still very small compared with that of wild birds. One possible explanation is that these abnormal gene fragments were obtained from an unidentified influenza virus database.All these findings lead to a question: Where did the 1918 virus come from?

Contrary to the 1918 virus, the gene fragments of the recombinant viruses of 1957 and 1968 influenza were from Eurasian avian influenza virus. Both human viruses are produced by the same mechanism: it is the recombination of Eurasian avian influenza virus and the previously popular human H1N1 virus. To prove the origin of the 1918 virus, samples more similar to the 1918 virus sequence are needed: samples before the 1918 virus epidemic and wild epidemic samples.

5. What is the biological basis of the pathogenicity of the 1918 virus?

Single gene sequence analysis can not provide the cause of pathogenicity of 1918 virus. Through a series of in vitro/animal model experiments, the researchers tried to model the virulence of the virus constructed by reverse gene.

Influenza virus infection requires HA protein to bind to sialic acid receptors on the surface of host cells.However, the configuration of HA receptor binding site of influenza virus suitable for avian infection is different from that of influenza virus suitable for human infection. Avian influenza virus preferentially binds sialic acid receptor with α(2-3) linked sugar; Human influenza virus is considered to preferentially use α(2-6) linked sugar. This avian receptor configuration can be transformed into infection only by changing one amino acid, while the HA protein of five sequenced 1918 viruses has this change, which is probably a key step to adapt to human hosts. There is also a second possibility that three of the five sequenced 1918 viruses have another change in their HA sequence that enhances the binding of human receptors.

This means that at least two H1N1 receptor-binding mutants spread in 1918: one shows high affinity with human receptor and the other shows mixed high affinity with avian/human receptor. But there is no geographical or chronological indication that one of the variants is the precursor of the other.Did these viruses have the same transmission ability in 1918, did they have the same replication pattern in the respiratory tree, and did they spread the same virus in the first and third epidemics? Are unknown.

In a series of in vivo experiments, recombinant genes containing gene fragments 1 and 5 of 1918 virus have been produced. These recombinants with 1918 HA/NA showed high pathogenicity in mice. In addition, the microarray analysis of gene expression in lung tissue of these mice showed that cell apoptosis, tissue damage and oxidation were all related to the expression of such genes. These findings are unexpected, because the virus with 1918 gene has not adapted to mice; The control group (mice infected with other modern human viruses) showed little pathogenicity and virus replication. Mice infected with 1918 HA/NA recombinant showed necrosis of bronchial and alveolar epithelium and obvious inflammatory infiltration in their lungs, which indicated that 1918 HA (and possibly NA) contained pathogenic factors for mice. It is not clear whether the pathogenicity of mice can effectively simulate the pathogenicity of humans, and the potential role of other 1918 single or combined proteins is not clear. The researchers plan to further draw the genetic basis of the toxicity of the 1918 virus on other animal models. These experiments may help to determine the pathogenic components of the 1918 virus, but it is impossible to determine whether it is the main factor in the death pattern of the 1918 influenza.

Why did the 1918 virus kill so many healthy young people?

From the historical experience, the flu death curve by age has been U-shaped for at least 150 years (Figure 2), which shows the peak of death in childhood and old age, and the death rate in the middle age group is lower. On the contrary, the 1918 flu showed a unique pattern, a "W-shaped" curve that had never been recorded, and there was another death peak among people aged about 20-40.During 1918-1919, the mortality rate of people aged 15-34 suffering from influenza and pneumonia was more than 20 times higher than in previous years. Nearly half of the 1918 flu deaths came from people aged 20-40, which was unique to the 1918 flu.

Another unique point is that the mortality rate of people under 65 years old is much higher than that of people over 65 years old, and it accounts for 99% of the flu deaths in 1918. In comparison, the mortality rate of people under 65 years old accounted for 36% of the 1957 H2N2 influenza and 48% of the 1968 H3N2 influenza.

Figure 2 Mortality rate of influenza and pneumonia per 100,000 population of all ages in the United States from 1911 to 1918.

Further dividing the influenza mortality curve by age, we can clearly see that the prevalence rate of people under 35 years old is very high (Figure 3-a), but there is still a W-shaped death peak among young people, which is obviously different from the U-shaped curve of influenza in 1928-1929 (Figure 3-c). The same 1918 flu, the prevalence rate of 5 ~ 14 years old is also high, but the mortality rate is much lower (Figure 3-a/b). In order to explain this model, we must jump out of the host and environmental factors and look further, which may include immunopathological factors (such as increased antibody-dependent infection associated with virus exposure) and other risk factors (such as concurrent infection, drugs used and environmental factors). See figure 3.

Fig. 3 Community survey results of American public health institutions in 8 states in 1918.
Note: Figures A, B and C show the prevalence rate, mortality rate and mortality rate of influenza and pneumonia in different age groups respectively.

There is a theory that can partially explain these findings. The 1918 virus is highly toxic, but for patients born before 1889, that is, people who are over 35 years old and have been exposed to the virus at that time, they have obtained partial immune protection against the 1918 virus. But there is a paradox in this theory: this nameless virus precursor must have appeared before 1889, and then reappeared 30 years later, but no trace has been found today.

Epidemiological data collected from 1900 to 1918 provided good evidence for the emergence of a new antigenic virus in 1918. It shows that from 1900 to 1917, the age group of 5 to 15 years old accounted for 11% of the total number of influenza cases, while the age group over 65 years old accounted for 6% of the total number of influenza cases. However, in 1918, the age group of 5-15 years jumped to 25% of the total number of influenza cases, while the age group over 65 years accounted for only 0.6% of the total number of influenza cases. This is consistent with the results of protective immunity obtained by previous exposure to the same or related viruses, and the mortality data is also consistent. In 1918, the number of deaths from influenza and pneumonia in the age group over 75 was less than that in 1911-1917 before the pandemic. At the other end of the age group (Figure 2), the infant mortality rate in 1918 was similar to other pandemic patterns.

Will the 1918 flu reappear? If so, what should I do?

As far as the course of disease and pathology are concerned, the 1918 influenza pandemic is different from the historical pandemic only in degree, not in species.Despite the large number of deaths worldwide, most infected people (> 95% from industrialized countries) are mild, which is not much different from today’s influenza. In addition, the experimental results of recombinant influenza virus containing 1918 virus gene show that 1918 virus and 1918-like virus are as sensitive to the anti-influenza drugs rimantadine and oseltamivir (approved by FDA) as other typical influenza viruses.

However, the 1918 flu has some characteristics of its own: in particular, the mortality rate is 5 ~ 20 times higher than expected. From the clinical and pathological point of view, these high mortality rates seem to be caused by many factors, including a higher proportion of severe respiratory infections (organ failure not caused by influenza); In addition, death cases are concentrated in an unusually young age group; Finally, in 1918, three influenza epidemics appeared one after another at an unusually rapid speed. Each feature may reflect the genetic characteristics of the 1918 virus, but to understand them, it is necessary to check the host and environment.

Until we can’t determine which factors lead to the influenza pandemic and high mortality rate, these can only be guesses. We can only come to the conclusion that since it has happened before, similar conditions may lead to the same serious pandemic.

Like the virus in 1918, H5N1 is an avian virus, although it is a distant relative. The reasons for the evolutionary path of the 1918 pandemic are completely unknown, but it seems to be different from the current H5N1 situation in many aspects. No matter the 1918 pandemic or any other infectious disease pandemic, there is no historical data showing the existence of a pandemic "precursor virus", which led to the outbreak of highly pathogenic infection in poultry; There is no historical data to prove that highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) virus, including other virus subtypes such as H5N1, can cause human epidemics, let alone pandemics.

Effective human-to-human transmission is the main prerequisite for the emergence of pandemic.Although the adaptation of influenza viruses to human cells (such as receptor binding) has begun to be understood at the molecular level, how various influenza viruses adapt to humans is not completely clear at present. In 1918, the virus acquired the characteristics of adapting to human beings, but at present, we have no way to know whether the H5N1 virus will acquire the ability of human-to-human transmission in a parallel process. Although the data about the 1918 virus has increased geometrically in the past ten years, we don’t know much more about the 2006 influenza pandemic than about the risk of the 1976 H1N1 "swine flu" epidemic.

Even with modern antiviral drugs, vaccines, and knowledge of infectious disease prevention, if there is another virus like 1918, it may still kill more than 100 million people all over the world. An outbreak of a pandemic virus with high pathogenicity potential, such as the recent H5N1 virus, may cause more deaths.

No matter the virus, host or environmental factors, the virus of the first wave in 1918 had nothing to do with the abnormal pathogenicity of the second and third waves. And more, identify the virulence models of the first wave of influenza RNA positive cases from different gene sequences; Identification of human influenza RNA samples before 1918 is helpful to understand the time when the 1918 virus appeared; The observation and sequencing of a large number of animal influenza viruses will help us to understand the genetic basis of adapting to the host and the natural reservoir range of influenza. Generally speaking, it is necessary to have a comprehensive understanding of the 1918 influenza from the aspects of history, epidemiology and biology in order to answer many unsolved mysteries.

On Taiwan’s election and criticism of "Taiwan independence", the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council responded to hot spots on both sides of the strait.

  BEIJING, April 24 (Xinhua) On the morning of the 24th, the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council held a regular press conference. Spokesperson Ma Guang Xiao answered reporters’ questions on the recent 2020 election in Taiwan Province, Tsai Ing-Wen’s "Taiwan independence" remarks, cross-strait exchanges, and the draft amendment to the Regulations on People’s Relations across the Taiwan Strait. Ma Xiaoguang said that the mainland has never intervened in the elections in Taiwan Province, and the Democratic Progressive Party authorities have constantly obstructed and restricted the exchanges and contacts between compatriots on both sides of the strait, suppressed the voice calling for cross-strait reunification, raised cross-strait opposition, and exposed its true features of seeking one-party interests and seeking "Taiwan independence".

  [Talking about the 2020 election: the statement of "mainland intervention" is sheer nonsense]

  Tsai Ing-Wen said a few days ago that in the "general election" in 2020, Kuomintang candidates appeared in South Korea’s Yu and Guo Taiming successively. She did not believe that the mainland did not intervene. Ma Xiaoguang said that we have emphasized many times that we have never been involved in elections in Taiwan Province. Democratic Progressive Party authorities are used to spreading slanderous words and spreading rumors to discredit the mainland. The question of Taiwan Province is an internal affair of China, and no external interference is allowed. The so-called "mainland intervention" is sheer nonsense with ulterior motives.

  [Criticism of Tsai Ing-Wen’s "Taiwan independence" remarks: undermining the peaceful development of the two sides of the strait]

  In an interview a few days ago, Tsai Ing-Wen declared that he did not accept the "1992 Consensus" and insisted on the so-called "sovereign independence", saying that "maintaining the status quo" means maintaining the so-called "independence" status quo. Ma Xiaoguang pointed out that the remarks made by the leader of the Democratic Progressive Party authorities were unsolicited, exposing a political plot to overthrow the common political foundation of the "1992 Consensus" and undermine the peaceful development of cross-strait relations, and fully demonstrating that the Democratic Progressive Party authorities are the makers of cross-strait conflicts, the saboteurs of peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait and the injurers of the interests of the people in Taiwan Province.

  In addition, Li Yi, a mainland American scholar who was invited to visit Taiwan, was expelled from the country by the Taiwan authorities a few days ago. Tsai Ing-Wen said, "If people from mainland China come to Taiwan to promote &lsquo; One country, two systems &rsquo; 、&lsquo; Unification by force &rsquo; Wait, control measures should be taken to refuse entry when necessary. " Ma Xiaoguang said that for some time, the Democratic Progressive Party authorities have constantly obstructed and restricted the exchanges and contacts between compatriots on both sides of the strait, suppressed the voice calling for reunification on both sides of the strait, raised cross-strait opposition, and exposed their true colors of seeking one-party interests and "Taiwan independence".

  [Comment on South Korea’s remarks on Yu’s visit to the United States: Cross-strait affairs should be discussed by family members]

  South Korea Yu said during his visit to the United States a few days ago, "Taiwan Province &lsquo; National defense &rsquo; Relying on the United States, technology depends on Japan, and the market depends on the mainland. " In this regard, Ma Guang Xiao emphasized that compatriots on both sides of the strait are a family, and cross-strait affairs are the family affairs of compatriots on both sides of the strait, which should be handled by family members through consultation. I hope all Chinese people, including Taiwan Province compatriots, will conform to the historical trend, share the national justice, firmly hold the national destiny in their own hands, and create a bright future for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

  [On the Draft Amendment to the Regulations on Cross-Strait People’s Relations: Ruining the Future of Taiwan Province]

  The "Draft Amendment to the Regulations on People’s Relations between the Two Sides of the Taiwan Strait" recently passed by Taiwan’s administrative authorities, in which it is proposed to add that "the signing of political agreements through cross-strait negotiations should be subject to double deliberation and referendum by the legislature" and stipulate that "it shall not be an item of agreement". Ma Xiaoguang pointed out that the Democratic Progressive Party authorities violated the common aspiration of compatriots on both sides of the strait for peace and development for the sake of one party and one self-interest. The peaceful development of cross-strait relations is the common aspiration and common interest of compatriots on both sides of the strait. Everything that is beneficial to the interests of compatriots on both sides of the strait and the fundamental interests of the Chinese nation should be vigorously promoted.

  On April 17th, Chief Executive Chui Sai On (right) of the Macao Special Administrative Region met with James Soong, Chairman of the People First Party, at the government headquarters. The two sides exchanged views on deepening exchanges and cooperation between the two places and promoting Taiwan Province compatriots to participate in the construction of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area in the future.

  [The Taiwan authorities distorted James Soong’s delegation’s visit to Hong Kong and Macao: obstructing exchanges and cooperation]

  A few days ago, James Soong, Chairman of the People First Party, led a delegation to visit Hong Kong and Macao to enter the Liaison Office of the two places and met with the directors of the Liaison Office of the two places respectively. The Mainland Affairs Council claimed that the mainland arranged this trip with the intention of "united front" and eliminating the so-called "sovereignty of Taiwan Province". Ma Xiaoguang pointed out that James Soong led a delegation to visit Hong Kong and Macao, and the heads of the Liaison Offices in Hong Kong and Macao met with him respectively, which was a normal exchange. Democratic Progressive Party authorities distorted and slandered, fully exposing their attempts to obstruct cross-strait exchanges and cooperation with Hong Kong and Macao and harm the interests and well-being of compatriots.

  [Taiwan people’s residence permit in the mainland has not been declared or the practice of being punished by the Taiwan authorities is unpopular]

  A few days ago, the Taiwan Province Affairs Council worked out to issue an administrative order in the second half of the year, stipulating that people who receive mainland residence permits must declare voluntarily, or they will be punished. Ma Xiaoguang said that the mainland issued residence permits to Taiwan Province compatriots in order to meet the needs of Taiwan Province compatriots, which was a good thing to benefit Taiwan and the people, and was also welcomed by the vast number of Taiwan Province compatriots. For the sake of one-party interests, the Democratic Progressive Party authorities are everywhere against the interests of our compatriots in Taiwan Province and sabotage the good deeds of our compatriots in Taiwan Province. This is unpopular and will not succeed.

  [The mayor of Taixian County came to the mainland to communicate and meet the needs of the people]

  Recently, many county mayors in Taiwan Province visited the mainland for exchanges. Ma Xiaoguang pointed out that the mayor of Taiwan county came to the mainland to meet the needs of the people. We are willing to continue exchanges and cooperation with Taiwanese counties and cities in various fields on the basis of adhering to the "1992 Consensus" to enhance the well-being of Taiwan Province compatriots.

  [Encourage Taiwanese enterprises to invest in the mainland without discrimination]

  Want Want Group, a Taiwan-funded enterprise, has issued a statement to refute the report that it has received high government subsidies in the mainland and tried to "smear and discredit" the enterprise. Ma Xiaoguang said, over the years, we have encouraged and supported Taiwan-funded enterprises to invest and start businesses in the mainland, and taken active measures to provide them with various conveniences and equal treatment, so as to share the opportunities for development in the mainland and help them achieve greater and better development in the mainland. Our policy is inclusive, in accordance with laws and regulations, and all Taiwan Province enterprises are treated equally.

  [Introduction to two activities: the Straits Forum is well prepared, and the Taiwan Province Garden of the World Expo has its own characteristics]

  When introducing the situation of the 2019 Straits Forum, Ma Xiaoguang said that the 11th Straits Forum will be held in Fujian Province on June 15th, and will continue to focus on and serve grassroots people and youth groups. At present, all preparations are progressing smoothly. Taiwan Province compatriots are welcome to actively participate in this forum, and media friends on both sides of the strait are also welcome to report.

  Regarding the 2019 China Beijing World Horticultural Exposition to be held in Yanqing District, Beijing on April 29th, Ma Xiaoguang said that at the invitation of the Beijing World Horticultural Exposition Bureau, Taiwan Province Garden covers an area of 2,000 square meters, which is divided into six landscape nodes: Xiangshan, Orchid, Time Road, Sun Moon Lake, farmland and mountain top. The garden is very attractive with Taiwan Province characteristics.

Mobile finally supports online sales! But there’s a lot of holes …

Have you noticed that there has been a lot of good news from operators recently?

It is also a port number transfer network, and it is also vying to get on VoLTE.

One of them, Xiao Lei, has been waiting for a long time-the mobile phone number supports remote account cancellation.

This policy not only saves time but also saves money. (After all, the trip home can cover your phone bill for several years.)

Yes, you heard me right.

From January 1st this year, all three major operators can cancel their accounts in different places.

Xiaolei wants to praise Unicom most, and he went online to cancel his account early, so we don’t have to run the business hall again.

As for mobile telecommunications, it is a little more difficult.

Last week, Mobile began to pilot online account cancellation. But if you open China Mobile App, you probably can’t find the account cancellation entrance, because it is only limited to Shaanxi Mobile number for the time being.

Mobile number and telecom users in other areas can only go to the business hall to handle it.

(account cancellation entrance: China mobile App→ classification → life → online sales number)

Lei doesn’t know when it will be open to the whole country. Before that, mobile phone users should take a look at the preparations first …

Method for cancel number of mobile telecommunication in different places

Listen, to cancel the number in the business hall, you need:

I bring my ID card and service password and go to the designated business hall to handle it.

Not all business halls can do it.

Take Guangzhou, where Xiaolei is located, as an example. Only the business hall can close the account in different places.

(An authorized agency like this won’t do)

So before you go, be sure to call 10086/10000 to find out which business halls can do it.

But, you can’t just cancel it if you go.

Your mobile phone number cannot have the following conditions:

Arrears;
Have a contract;
It is bound with services such as family number and broadband.

Only one situation:

At the time of inquiry, Xiao Lei found a secret, and the method of canceling the account between Mobile GSM and M-Zone Shenzhouxing was actually different.

The customer service explained this to me:

You must go to the business hall to make an appointment to cancel your account. If you don’t pay for the next 90 days, you will automatically sell the number;
And Shenzhouxing and M-Zone will automatically cancel the number if the arrears exceed 90 days.

You don’t pay your phone bill for 90 days. How can there be such a big difference?

Under the coercion of Xiao Lei, the customer service told Xiao Lei:

Because GSM is prepaid, arrears will affect credit, so you have to make an appointment to cancel your account;
However, Shenzhouxing and M-Zone are post-paid, and how much is charged, even if the arrears are directly thrown away, it will not affect the credit.

In other words, Shenzhouxing and M-Zone don’t have to go to the business hall to close their accounts.

Fortunately, little ray asked, and saved you another thing?

In a word, Xiao Lei suggests that you call 10086/10000, where you belong, to find out your account cancellation conditions, so as not to make a trip in vain.

If there is a Shaanxi mobile phone friend who is reading this article, the account cancellation process on the mobile App is similar to that of China Unicom, and Xiao Lei said it together.

Unicom remote number cancellation method

Xiao Lei cancelled a Unicom number in January.

The entrance is easy to find:

"Mobile phone business hall App → service → handling → account cancellation"

First of all, we have to go through the triple verification of "SMS verification code+uploading ID photo+face recognition". The ID card must be taken now, and photos in the photo album cannot be used.

I can’t help it. I have to prevent others from maliciously canceling your number.

At this time, China Unicom will remind you that the phone bill should not be less than 50 yuan, otherwise it may not be possible to cancel the account ~ (Mobile can cancel online as long as it does not owe money at that time)

In order to close the account successfully, Xiao Lei gritted his teeth and charged the phone bill again.

Of course, the extra money will be refunded to you.

It is only by transferring to the balance of another Unicom number in the same province.

For example, the number of Xiaolei Guangdong Unicom cannot be transferred to Jiangsu Unicom.

Just when I crossed my heart and thought I was done, huh? ? ? Unknown error. What the hell? !

Ray suddenly felt struck by lightning.

No way, find customer service! When I opened Unicom official website and found that there were only two people waiting in line, Lei was secretly pleased.

The problem is that miss customer service can’t solve the problems that Xiaolei encountered, and finally she just gave a complaint feedback link …

Just when Xiaolei was disheartened, ready to give up and went directly to the offline business hall to cancel the account, he suddenly had a flash of light and thought of the key to the problem: Unicom’s mobile phone card number is divided into 4G and 2 G and 3 G.

Generally, 4G numbers belong to China Unicom’s national system CBSS, while many 2 and 3G numbers still belong to local provinces and cities BSS. The two card systems are not connected, so naturally they cannot be transferred.

And the number I want to transfer to is the 3G card!

Sure enough, Xiao Lei changed the number to a colleague’s 4G card, and it was a success.

Almost a month later, the balance was directly charged to the number I filled in.

In addition, Unicom also provides a way that it likes very much-just don’t.

However, if you want cash, you can do it. You have to go to Unicom’s own business hall to cancel the number, and support bank card transfer to refund the balance.

It should be noted that the donation fee is non-refundable, and only the money that you recharge can be refunded.

In contrast, the refund of mobile telecom is very pit.

Lei asked the customer service:

At present, there is no uniform standard for telecommunications, and whether cash can be refunded depends on local policies;
Mobile can only transfer the balance to the mobile number of the same attribution, and cannot refund cash.

Although mobile tries to save the user churn rate by raising various thresholds.

But now there is a remote account cancellation+port number transfer, and it is not a simple matter of who we want to use.

I asked if you were afraid.

Wait a minute! Don’t go after reading the article!

Xiao Lei made a small questionnaire, which is related to you. Used to optimize the article and let you see more interesting content.

Meituan will pay social security for full-time and stable part-time riders.

  China Youth Daily, Beijing, February 19th (reporter Zhao Limei, trainee reporter of Zhongqing.com, reporter Zhang Junbin) After the Hong Kong stock market closed at 16: 30 today, Meituan announced that it would pay social security for full-time and stable part-time riders nationwide, which is expected to be implemented in the second quarter of 2025.

  Following the launch of the anti-fatigue mechanism and the cancellation of overtime deduction, this is another measure taken by Meituan to improve the social security of new employment groups in recent years. Since July 2022, Meituan has taken the lead in paying new occupational injury insurance premiums for new employment groups. At present, Meituan has invested 1.4 billion yuan to pay occupational injury protection for riders in seven pilot provinces and cities. In the future, this measure will further cover all riders in all provinces and cities.

  Industry sources said that with the steady development of take-away and other industries, at present, a relatively clear division of "professional" and "part-time" groups has been formed among new employees such as take-away riders. Many riders have become stable practitioners after accumulating relevant experience and skills. Providing all kinds of security for stable employment is not only in line with the real interests of workers, but also conducive to the long-term development of the industry and the formation of a relatively stable and professional distribution group.

  It is worth noting that since the beginning of the year, Meituan has continuously introduced heavy measures to strengthen the protection of new employment groups, including canceling overtime deductions and online anti-fatigue mechanisms, and has built 16,000 rider communities in conjunction with all sectors of society to help riders smooth the distribution path. The relevant person in charge of the US Mission said: "We will continue to increase resources and capital investment, continue to improve the rider welfare treatment system, and strive to contribute more positive forces to building harmonious labor relations."

In the third quarter, the national economy recovered to good data, showing the high-quality development of China’s economy.

CCTV News:According to the data released by the National Bureau of Statistics on October 24, in the third quarter, the national economy continued to recover, production demand continued to improve, employment prices were generally stable, and people’s livelihood security was effective and effective, and the overall operation was in a reasonable range.

In the first three quarters, the GDP increased by 3.0% year-on-year.

In the first three quarters, the gross domestic product (GDP) was 87,026.9 billion yuan, up 3.0% year-on-year, 0.5 percentage points faster than that in the first half of the year, and the economy as a whole showed a recovery trend. Among them, GDP in the third quarter increased by 3.9% year-on-year, 3.5 percentage points faster than that in the second quarter.

Policy measures have made remarkable progress, and industrial production has rebounded significantly.

In the third quarter, the supply chain of industrial chain recovered steadily, and the added value of industrial enterprises above designated size increased by 4.8% year-on-year, up by 4.1 percentage points from the second quarter. The leading role of new kinetic energy was highlighted. In the third quarter, the added value of high-tech manufacturing increased by 6.7% year-on-year, which was 1.9 percentage points higher than that of industries above designated size in China. The output of new energy products such as charging piles, wind turbines and photovoltaic cells increased rapidly. The rapid recovery of the automobile manufacturing industry has played a significant role in stimulating the industrial economy.

Zhang Liqun, a researcher at the State Council Development Research Center:This shows the strong growth potential of China’s economy and the obvious expected effects of our macroeconomic policies, which are enough to enhance our confidence.

The employment situation is generally stable, and the unemployment rate drops in urban surveys.

In the first three quarters, the average urban unemployment rate was 5.6%, of which the average in the third quarter was 5.4%, down 0.4 percentage points from the second quarter. From the main population of employment, 25-mdash; The average unemployment rate of the 59-year-old labor force in the third quarter was 4.4%, which was significantly lower than the average level of 4.9% in the first quarter and 5.0% in the second quarter. Under the influence of a series of policies to stabilize employment and protect people’s livelihood, in the first three quarters, the per capita disposable income of the national residents actually increased by 3.2% year-on-year, 0.2 percentage points faster than that in the first half of the year, and the income growth of residents was basically synchronized with economic growth.

In the first three quarters, China’s import and export increased by 9.9% year-on-year

The General Administration of Customs announced on the 24th that in the first three quarters of this year, China’s total import and export value was 31.11 trillion yuan, up 9.9% year-on-year. Among them, the export was 17.67 trillion yuan, an increase of 13.8%; Imports reached 13.44 trillion yuan, up 5.2%. In the first three quarters, China imported and exported 4.7 trillion yuan, 4.23 trillion yuan, 3.8 trillion yuan and 1.81 trillion yuan to ASEAN, the European Union, the United States and South Korea, up 15.2%, 9%, 8% and 7.1% respectively. In the same period, China’s total import and export to countries along the "Belt and Road" was 10.04 trillion yuan, an increase of 20.7%. 

China-Europe train "Zhongyu" added new categories to the export goods.

On the afternoon of 24th, a China-Europe train (Zhongyu) loaded with new energy vehicles left Zhengzhou, passed through Alashankou, Xinjiang, and headed for Moscow, the Russian capital. This was the first time that China-Europe train (Zhongyu) exported new energy vehicles to Europe, which also marked the addition of new categories to the export goods of China-Europe train (Zhongyu).

Lu Lei, Chief of Customs Supervision Section II of Zhengzhou Station:We shorten the overall customs clearance time and port stay time of automobile export by means of immediate reporting and immediate inspection, and realize seamless and zero waiting at port clearance.

After nearly ten years of development, the business scope of China-Europe Train (Zhongyu) covers more than 140 cities in more than 40 countries, with special trains such as postal trains and timber trains, and more than 6,000 domestic and foreign partners.
