Tanghe River in Henan Province: Focusing on Air Pollution Prevention and Improving County Environmental Quality

(Reporter Liu Lixin   Correspondent Niu Lingyun   Wang Lili)"In the past, the smoke and noisy noise of barbecue stalls on both sides of the road made it difficult for people to sleep. Now the barbecue stalls have entered the store and changed to electric barbecue, and finally they can sleep well at night." A few days ago, Mao Qiumei, who lives in tanghe county Oilfield Base, said with deep feelings.

Tanghe county Oilfield Base is a famous "barbecue street" in the local area. Many barbecue stalls have caused people’s disturbance, which makes the residents nearby miserable. In March this year, after receiving the feedback from the masses, the tanghe county Procuratorate immediately sent personnel to intervene in the investigation. After investigation, it was found that the restaurant in this street moved the barbecue stove out of the store for barbecue every night, and the stove did not take any measures to purify the oil smoke, and the smoke was directly discharged into the air.

In order to effectively solve the problem of open-air barbecue pollution, the hospital issued a pre-litigation procuratorial suggestion to the county urban management (law enforcement) bureau to urge it to perform its duties according to law. After receiving the procuratorial suggestions, the county urban management (law enforcement) bureau immediately investigated and standardized the management of open-air barbecues in fixed stores according to law, cleaned up and banned more than 60 illegal stalls for open-air barbecues, urged 507 catering units in urban areas to install fume purification facilities, and changed more than 210 barbecue stalls from carbon to gas and electricity.

Since the beginning of this year, according to the clues of public interest litigation with serious air pollution, tanghe county Procuratorate has focused on the problems based on its functions, found out the reasons and made classified policies, which has obviously improved the environmental quality of the county.

The hospital set up a task force to issue procuratorial suggestions to 4 townships and 5 related units for more than 30 outstanding common problems, and banned 47 "scattered and polluted" enterprises; In view of the large amount of coal used by coal-related production enterprises and the substandard emissions, the disorderly development of "scattered pollution" enterprises and the direct discharge of catering fumes, a research report will be formed in time and submitted to the county party Committee, county people’s congress and county government, and the county ecological environment bureau, urban management bureau and other departments will be urged to perform their duties according to law through procuratorial suggestions to ensure the overall promotion of air pollution control work.

In addition, the hospital has also established a working mechanism for linking administrative law enforcement and criminal justice with joint meetings, information sharing, clue transfer, and consultation and supervision of major cases, and strengthened contact and cooperation with county natural resources bureau, ecological environment bureau and other units to dig deep into the clues of filing supervision. Up to now, the institute has issued 15 pieces of procuratorial suggestions to 12 functional departments including the county ecological environment bureau, urged administrative organs to dismantle 3 commercial coal-fired boilers, investigated and dealt with 30 illegal sales of fireworks and firecrackers, stopped production and rectified 2 large household coal users, and controlled dust on 30 construction sites.

My dream of scientific research lies in that deep blue (self-reliance in science and technology, young scientists)

  Chen Shuguo is in the laboratory. Photo by Mao Lei

  When I saw Chen Shuguo, he was standing on the coast, guiding the students around him and testing the drone.

  "Our job is to serve the ocean ‘ Have a physical examination ’ 。” Hand over the remote control of the drone to the students. The young associate professor said, "If you want to develop, utilize and study the ocean, you must first know it and understand everything ‘ Physical examination index ’ . China’s offshore marine atmospheric environment is very complicated. Although China’s autonomous ocean color satellite remote sensing technology has developed rapidly in recent years, how to process the data can be more accurate, and how to determine the error and correct it are all problems we are committed to solving. "

  Chen Shuguo, 37, is an associate professor and doctoral supervisor at Sanya Institute of Oceanography, China Ocean University, and a part-time researcher at the National Satellite Ocean Application Center. He has been studying marine optical remote sensing for more than ten years, and the on-orbit alternative calibration algorithm of marine optical satellites developed by his team is serving the operational calibration system of China’s independent marine color satellites Haiyang-1 C and Haiyang-1 D. In recent years, Chen Shuguo is in charge of the project "Technical Development of Synchronous Observation System for Marine Water and Atmosphere", which has realized long-term, continuous and stable observation of optical parameters of water and atmosphere, and will be applied to the inspection of marine remote sensing products of Haiyang-1 series satellites and a new generation of water color observation satellites.

  Calibration of marine optical satellites to make data more comprehensive and accurate.

  Chen Shuguo became attached to marine optical remote sensing in 2009. That year, he was admitted to China Ocean University as a postgraduate majoring in marine information detection and processing, and saw the sea for the first time.

  "I am determined to engage in academics." Chen Shuguo’s academic enthusiasm has never wavered since he first entered school. After graduating from Ph.D., he continued to stay at his alma mater to study the basic theory and innovative application of marine optics.

  "When the sun shines on the water, some of it is reflected, some of it enters the water and is absorbed, and some of it will be scattered. Remote sensing of ocean water color is to analyze the spectral characteristics by receiving these scattered energy and deduce the optical composition of water body. " Chen Shuguo explained, "These detection data play an important role in China’s maritime rights and interests maintenance, marine resources development, marine environmental monitoring and marine disaster prediction."

  The most efficient and effective way to observe the ocean by remote sensing is to launch ocean satellites. Since the launch of the first ocean color test satellite, Ocean No.1 A, in 2002, China’s ocean satellites have developed for 20 years, and China’s autonomous ocean satellite optical remote sensor is also moving towards the "last mile" of full autonomy.

  Calibration refers to the process of converting satellite observation data into real radiation. "If satellite observation is a pole ‘ Scale ’ , then calibration is to add ‘ Sight ’ The process can make satellite data more accurate. " Chen Shuguo said, however, for a long time, we have to improve the calibration algorithm and lack the necessary calibration infrastructure.

  In order to solve this problem, Chen Shuguo settled down and studied hard. Reading literature, publishing papers, leading teams to conduct on-the-spot observation and experiments … … "We have conducted more than 20 voyages of marine optical comprehensive experiments on different types of water atmospheric environment." Chen Shuguo said that a large number of first-hand data have laid a solid foundation for follow-up research.

  While doing theoretical deduction and finding the best algorithm, the site selection of calibration field is determined through comprehensive analysis of a large number of data. One month before the launch of Haiyang-1 C satellite, Chen Shuguo led a team to develop an on-orbit alternative calibration algorithm for China autonomous ocean color satellite.

  After years of field observation, the swaying deck is the second laboratory.

  Ocean optics and water color remote sensing are disciplines based on field measurement. In order to obtain comprehensive field observation data of ocean optics, Chen Shuguo has worked in the observation line for many years, taking the swaying deck as the second laboratory and writing papers on the ocean.

  For Chen Shuguo, the sea is an unpredictable "old friend". Although he has been dealing with it for more than 10 years and knows it better than others, Chen Shuguo is still looking forward to and uneasy every time he puts the observation instrument into the water for measurement. "Ocean observation not only has bad sea conditions, but also is accompanied by various unknown factors underwater. Changing all the time is the essence of the ocean. "

  Observation at sea, a voyage is about 20 days. Due to the heavy scientific research tasks, Chen Shuguo once slept less than 4 hours a day on several voyages. Up to now, Chen Shuguo has been at sea for more than 300 days, of which the longest time has been 74 days in the western Pacific Ocean. "Which marine is not ready to bear hardships?" Chen Shuguo said.

  Love is dedicated to the sea, and the sea is also fruitful. In 2020, Chen Shuguo began to be responsible for the project "Technical Development of Synchronous Observation System for Marine Water and Atmosphere" of National Satellite Ocean Application Center. This project will set up eight inspection systems with long-term continuous monitoring capability of optical properties of marine water and atmosphere along the coastline of China, which can realize long-term, continuous and stable observation of optical parameters of water and atmosphere under unattended conditions.

  From the calibration algorithm of China autonomous ocean color satellite to the construction of synchronous observation system of ocean water and atmosphere, Chen Shuguo’s dream of deep blue has never stopped.

  Down-to-earth, really do some original work.

  In the winter of 2019, Sanya Ocean Research Institute of China Ocean University held an unveiling ceremony and officially settled in Yazhouwan Science and Technology City, Sanya. In May 2020, Chen Shuguo came to the South China Sea from the Yellow Sea.

  "We want to build a calibration field for marine water color satellites. The seawater in the South China Sea is cleaner, and the complexity of the coastal water atmosphere is not so high." After joining Sanya Oceanographic Research Institute, Chen Shuguo took the lead in building a remote sensing calibration laboratory for ocean color, which can not only effectively support the maintenance of China’s independent ocean color satellite system to replace the calibration field, but also serve the calibration of marine optical instruments in universities and research institutes and ensure the accuracy of measured data.

  Today, Chen Shuguo’s students are located in Qingdao and Sanya, and some senior students are internship at the National Satellite Ocean Application Center in Beijing. "Every time we have an online group meeting ‘ Longitudinal span ’ In the north and south, some people are attending classes at school, some are studying in the laboratory, and some are internship in the center. " Chen Shuguo said with a smile, "Learning while thinking and practicing, Industry-University-Research is integrated."

  The ocean is a huge treasure house of resources, and building a maritime power is a major strategic task to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. More than 20 years ago, China didn’t have its own ocean satellite, so it was necessary to buy data from abroad to understand the atmospheric situation of China’s offshore water bodies. Nowadays, groups of scientists are working together to promote the high-level self-reliance and self-improvement of marine science and technology. China marine satellites have entered the era of networked observation, which has not only formed the continuous high-frequency observation coverage of global sea areas, but also the data has the same accuracy as international advanced products. "Doing your job seriously is the greatest contribution to the country." Chen Shuguo said.

Ji ‘nan Baotu Spring spewing was questioned, and the water pump and distribution box were found by the fake spring.

  Jinan, Oct. 10 (Reporter Zhang Xiaoyan Wang Huang) There are many tourists who choose to come to Jinan during the 11th holiday, and Baotu Spring is one of the must-see attractions when coming to Jinan. On October 4th, a netizen posted that Weibo saw a water pump and a transformer box near Baotu Spring in Jinan, questioning the gushing of Baotu Spring in Jinan. By 7: 00 pm on the 10th, the Weibo content had been forwarded for 308 times with 334 comments. On the 10th, the staff of Baotu Spring Scenic Area said that Baotu Spring spewing was a natural phenomenon.

  On October 4th, a netizen named "Lang Qibo" in Weibo posted a list of people taking photos of tourists by Baotu Spring in Weibo. The spring eyes rumbled outward, and I heard the sound of a water pump from all directions. I found the distribution box by following the sound. Listening to this sound, the quality of the water pump is still good. I don’t know if it is an imported pump or a domestic pump. " It is equipped with three pictures, one of which is a distribution box in the scenic spot.

  "I live near Baotu Spring, which is a real spring. Don’t mislead tourists and netizens." Weibo published by Lang Qibo quickly attracted comments from many netizens, and everyone left messages on his Weibo to show the authenticity of Baotu Spring in Jinan. However, many netizens’ messages did not dispel "Lang Qibo’s doubts about the gushing of Baotu Spring in Jinan. @ Sincerely and diligently, Jinan’s abundant rainfall and water volume have naturally increased greatly this year. You don’t know that the daily TV news will report the situation of staff monitoring water volume in real time, and you probably haven’t heard of the words "saving water and protecting springs"! @ Livefa _0′ s spring farm message, Jinan has a lot of rain this year, and the groundwater supply is very sufficient. Not only Baotu Spring, but also 72 springs around it have a lot of water inflow.

  Below the Weibo, "Lang Qibo" is still full of doubts about the reply words of many netizens, and asks for evidence to prove the authenticity, and says that the water pump in the park can be turned off to prove it.

  "The water pump is mainly used to water the green plants in the scenic spot, and the substation box is mainly used for power supply in the scenic spot." A staff member of the scenic spot said that they also paid attention to the contents of the Weibo, and the water pump that made the netizens doubt was mainly used for watering. In addition, the power distribution room mentioned was the scenic spot substation box, which had nothing to do with the water pump. "The spring eye of Baotu Spring is a natural phenomenon and cannot be moved. Our job is to protect it."

  Now Jinan, online celebrity is well known by more and more people. Walking around the moat, Black Tiger Spring and other scenic spots, you will find transformer boxes in hidden and safe areas at regular intervals. With the arrival of "Quancheng Night Banquet" in Jinan, these transformer boxes are very useful and add a lot of color to Jinan night scene.

Intangible cultural heritage blooms more fascinating brilliance in the new era.

  On August 24th, 2022, the Propaganda Department of the CPC Central Committee held the 23rd news conference on the theme of "China this decade" to introduce the situation of promoting the high-quality development of culture and tourism in the new era. Among them, the relevant leading comrades of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism introduced the creative transformation and innovative development of intangible cultural heritage since the 18th CPC National Congress. Let’s watch together!

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has attached great importance to the protection and inheritance of intangible cultural heritage, made a series of major arrangements, and launched a series of pragmatic measures to promote the creative transformation and innovative development of intangible cultural heritage, so as to bloom more fascinating brilliance in the new era.

  First, the legacy of right and wrong has become an important aspect of continuing the cultural context and inheriting Chinese civilization.

  Up to now, there are more than 100,000 non-legacy representative projects at all levels in China, including 1,557 national non-legacy representative projects; There are more than 90,000 representative inheritors at all levels, including 3,062 national non-legacy representative inheritors; Twenty-three national cultural and ecological protection zones have been set up, and intangible cultural heritage projects, China traditional craft revitalization plan, China non-genetic inheritor research and training plan and Quyi inheritance and development plan have been implemented. More than 100,000 inheritors have been trained, and the vitality of non-genetic inheritors has been continuously enhanced.

  Second, non-legacy has become an important source of strengthening cultural self-confidence and casting a solid sense of the Chinese nation’s community.

  Various places hold colorful non-legacy activities on traditional festivals and cultural and natural heritage days, and the whole society has a stronger atmosphere of loving Chinese excellent traditional culture. "Twenty-four solar terms" show the Chinese nation’s cultural heritage and self-confidence to the world on the stage of Beijing Winter Olympics. All 56 ethnic groups have projects listed in the list of national intangible cultural heritage representative projects. Under the framework of intangible cultural heritage protection, excellent traditional cultures of all ethnic groups exchange, appreciate and respect each other, and intangible cultural heritage has become a carrier and link to promote exchanges and exchanges among ethnic groups and build a strong sense of community of the Chinese nation.

  Third, non-legacy has become an important force to promote high-quality economic and social development and meet the needs of the people for a better life.

  Promote the revitalization and development of traditional crafts, the categories of traditional crafts products are increasingly rich, the quality is significantly improved, and they have been widely used in modern life. We will carry out non-legacy work to help precision poverty alleviation and rural revitalization, and set up more than 2,500 non-legacy workshops in various places to promote poverty alleviation and local economic development. Non-legacy projects related to family discipline and village regulations have played an important role in cultivating good folk customs and enriching community cultural accumulation.

  Fourth, the legacy of right and wrong has become an important part of displaying China’s image and spreading China’s voice.

  Up to now, 42 non-legacy projects in China have been listed in UNESCO’s non-legacy list and roster, ranking first in the world, contributing "China color" to world cultural diversity. Jointly declared projects such as "Mongolian long-tune folk songs" and "sending a boat to the king" have become an important embodiment of promoting civilized exchanges and mutual learning. Projects such as Acupuncture in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Bathing in Tibetan Medicine and Tai Ji Chuan provide "China Wisdom" for solving human health problems.

In 16 years, 87 projects entered the production of China films and rushed to the international market, depending on it!


Special feature of 1905 film network "It was successfully held for 15 sessions, witnessing 87 projects entering production, 72 participating in major film festivals at home and abroad, 44 being shortlisted for Class A film festivals, and 63 films being shown in cinemas at home and abroad." At the 25th Shanghai International Film Festival, the host chose to use such a set of figures as the opening remarks.


Behind the figures are the achievements made by the venture capital unit of Shanghai Film Festival in the past 16 years. By providing docking services such as incubation, financing and promotion for projects of different scales and stages, Shanghai Film Festival Venture Capital has become an incubator for young directors’ works and an important platform for the industry to discover new Chinese speakers.


It will be released on June 16th, and the young director’s feature film debut is one of the examples. In 2017 and 2019, the project was selected by Shanghai Film Festival Venture Capital twice, and in 2021, it was selected as the "One Concern" unit of Cannes Film Festival. Starting from venture capital, going to international film festivals, and then landing on the cinema screen, Street Kids has gone out of the "idealized" path.


On the same day, director Najiazuo also came to the scene where the honor was announced, telling the significance of venture capital to him. "In 2017, I met the producer because of venture capital. In 2019, the filming was completed, and I went to many film festivals. I always wanted to go home and see it. Time flies. I hope I can still work as hard as filming Street Kids when I am 40 years old!"



As the 25th Shanghai International Film Festival, originally scheduled to be held in 2022, was postponed to 2023, the organizing committee received a total of 679 project declarations in two years, and the competition was particularly fierce. After selection, 33 projects stood out.

 

In the end, various honors were announced: the director’s new work "Bye-bye, Bye-bye" won the "Recommended Project in Production"; The film "Wild Crane in the Clouds" with the theme of ethnic minorities won the "Recommended Project by Young Directors"; The director’s "Yao Yao Zhuan" and Gao Ming’s "Two Time Zones" were awarded "Creative Recommended Project" and "Special Recommended Project" respectively.


#01. The genre theme is novel and diverse.


"I think the diversity of this venture capital project is very good, not limited to a certain type of theme." This is the biggest feeling of the annual recommender and producer of project venture capital.

 

Bye-bye, which won the honor of "recommended project in production", focuses on the "bye-bye" belief culture in the relatively small Minnan area, and thus shows the living conditions of local elderly women. Similar themes are very rare in the domestic market, which also makes the judges shine. The recommendation language reads: "The theme is novel, the film language is distinctive and the completion is high."


 

Producer Kick told 1905 Film Network that she and director Ye Qian are both from Fujian, and they are particularly familiar with the stories and female images in the film. Since the debut novel "Sweet Potato Dried with Rice", Ye Qian has been insisting on the creation of similar themes.


"Paying attention to the elderly women and taking root in the soil of southern Fujian, Ye Qian has always been very firm. He will not pick up other people’s adaptation projects, and he is very determined to do his own things, which is very valuable and rare."

 

It is this persistence that made the director successfully move to play the heroine. "After reading the story, she said that she had not seen the role that moved her so much for a long time, which reminded her of the director."



Starting from one’s own life experience, combining personal experience, social observation and thinking with audio-visual language and transforming it into a powerful movie story, which is exactly what many outstanding projects of this venture capital have in common.

 

The same is true of Wild Crane in the Clouds, which won the honor of "Young Director’s Recommended Project". Director Ahmad McMaiti chose to tell a familiar "Xinjiang Story" in a humorous way, which left a deep impression on the judges from Uighur lines to strong regional cultural characteristics and ethnic customs.

 

The recommender concluded: "Personal experience and feelings are the best fulcrum for the director’s early creation. Rooting the seeds of creation in life may grow something with strong imagination. "

Not only do you dare to focus on minority themes in topic selection, but this year’s venture capital finalists are also showing a trend of blooming in variety. Youth, suspense, sports, family, crime, comedy, love, fantasy and martial arts are all involved, taking into account art and business. The enthusiasm and vision presented by young creators are gratifying.

 

#02 Hot Women’s Issues with Realistic Themes Get Attention

In recent years, the market feedback of realistic works has been fierce, which has frequently triggered heated discussions in the society and staged a box office success of "small and broad". Coupled with its relatively low cost and shooting difficulty, realistic themes have become the focus of young creators.


For example, the director’s new work focuses on education and medical care, which are closely related to people’s livelihood, and interweaves them with dramatic techniques. He explained the theme of the film like this: "When fairness and justice are not good for you, will you still insist on fairness and justice?"

 

Faced with this controversial topic, Chen Zhixi bluntly said that the director could be bolder, take a "stinging" step forward on the basis of the original script, and more directly poke the "pain point" of the audience and society.


Different from the warm tone of Trading Destiny, From Now on, written and directed by young director Yang Guomin, hopes to maintain a cruel and true "hard spirit" and "force generate’s true feelings in a cruel way" when showing the special father-son relationship of the family with cerebral palsy.

 

While the three judges affirmed the quality and strength of the script, they also pointed out from the market point of view that the audience would like to see the story of how the protagonist in trouble faces life actively and meets challenges, which can increase the initiative of some characters.

 

"In the current environment, the audience hopes that the film can give it some hope and courage while empathizing, which also makes warm realism a preferred type in the current market," Chen Zhixi said.



Among many realistic works, the increase of women’s themes is also a significant trend. For example, Night Running tells about the situation and choices of three generations of women, Taste of Chinese focuses on the growth experience of post-90 s girls, and Playground this Friday puts the pressure of single and full-time mothers on the table.


When Chen Meiyu, the director and screenwriter of "Mom at the same table", took her 7-year-old daughter to the public presentation site, it quickly attracted the attention of the judges and guests. And her work is also adapted from personal experience. "I took the college entrance examination five months pregnant and reported to the university when I was nine months pregnant." Mother at the same table "tells the story of female college students taking their children to college."

 

In Chen Meiyu’s view, when it comes to "early pregnancy mother", many viewers will inevitably have curiosity, and the heroine she created is to break the stereotype of the audience: she can argue with the school for the right to go to school, boldly respond to her ex-husband’s struggle for custody, and dare to tear open the wound to tell her story to the public. "The first key word is fierce. She is not bitter at all, but she is optimistic and brave."



During Chen Meiyu’s presentation, producer Chen Zhixi was moved to tears. She bluntly said that the real and special story emotion is the biggest advantage of this project, which makes it both topical and market space.

 

"She has got a natural good topic, and the next step is to have a good text, find universality under a special story, and the mother-daughter emotion should be able to make the audience empathize."


 

Indeed, both "Mother at the Same Table" and the above-mentioned female-themed projects are paying attention to women’s living difficulties and inner world from different dimensions. Several judges also reminded the creators that the shaping of female images and the choice of female actors are very important and will become the key to whether the audience can substitute and empathize.


#03 Art or business to be decided

 

"Do you want to make a movie to express yourself, or do you want the audience to buy tickets to go to the cinema? These are two completely different goals." A sentence from the judges triggered on-the-spot thinking.


In his view, art or business, personal expression or market-oriented, this is the direction that needs to be determined in the early stage, and it is also a problem that many creators have not thought clearly.

 

Wu Ershan explained: "The new director’s project needs to have a clear goal, not both sides. For example, if it is the direction of film festivals, it needs to maintain the originality of creation and the creativity of film language, while maintaining low cost; However, if the target is the mass market, then you need to consider what types of elements your work has, whether the organization is mature, whether it meets the needs of the market, and whether the budget can match. "



The producer of Bye-bye, Bye-bye has a clear position in this respect. As a narrative film with a strong author style, they made it clear from the beginning that they would take the direction of film festival exhibition, and they also hoped to make targeted regional announcements in Fujian and Guangdong during the cinema stage.

 

"The key to a small-budget movie is to find its unique audience, recognize its own advantages, find audiences with the same roots and similar cultural soil, and it is good to’ punch through’ an area without eating into a big fat man."


 

The same is true of the romantic film Time Hotel, which was also selected as a "project in progress". The total budget of the project is only 3.5 million yuan, and the filming has been completed and entered the post-production stage.

 

Director Yixiang Zhai said, "I hope to make a movie with aesthetic feeling and adult love theme. At present, there are few similar movies depicting adult emotions in the domestic market. I had expectations for the market from the beginning, so I was more concerned about the budget than the producer. I finished shooting in 26 days and have been saving the budget. "


 

"We should not only see what everyone is doing, but also figure out what we can do." This is Xin Yukun’s message to young filmmakers.


He is also very envious that young creators can have a platform for exchange and learning, such as "venture capital". "In the process, you can know more like-minded friends, and you will also revise and sort out your own creative concept and film concept. This is the meaning of venture capital."


Wu Ershan hopes that the new directors can really exert their strength on the word "new". "We don’t need him to be perfect or mature, but we want to see new themes, new ideas and new film languages. This is the primary standard. With this longboard, other shortcomings can be slowly filled."


Starting from the "new", the next China story is on its way to the world.

Suddenly "vomiting and diarrhea"? This virus is the high season of infection!

  Recently, hundreds of residents in a residential area in Yuci District, Jinzhong, Shanxi Province have concentrated symptoms such as vomiting and diarrhea. The local health and sports bureau reported that some patients in the community had detected norovirus type II.

  October to March is the high season of norovirus infection. Recently, many hospitals in China have also received some patients with vomiting and diarrhea in outpatient and emergency departments, and were diagnosed with norovirus infection.

  Infected with norovirus, what are the symptoms?

  Norovirus belongs to calicivirus family, which is one of the common pathogens causing acute gastroenteritis. It has the characteristics of low infection dose, long detoxification time and strong external environmental resistance. The whole population is generally susceptible, and it is easy to cause outbreaks and epidemics in schools, kindergartens, nursing homes and other crowd gathering places. Because its high incidence time is mostly in winter and spring, it has obvious seasonality, and people often call it "winter vomiting disease".

  Norovirus has a short incubation period, usually 24-48 hours. The main symptoms after infection are nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea and other acute gastroenteritis symptoms, and some patients will have headache, chills and muscle aches. Children often vomit after being infected with norovirus, which may cause dehydration symptoms; Adults have diarrhea, and the feces are watery or watery.

  In addition, norovirus spreads in various ways. It is often transmitted through respiratory tract, digestive tract and contact, such as eating food contaminated by norovirus, patient’s feces or vomit, inhaling aerosol generated by vomit, or contaminated object surface.

  Without specific medicine, how to prevent and treat it?

  Norovirus gastroenteritis is an acute viral infectious disease with self-limitation, and there is no specific antiviral drug at present, so symptomatic treatment is mainly adopted for this kind of disease.

  Most patients have mild symptoms after onset, generally lasting for 2-3 days, and no treatment is needed. In severe cases, mild and moderate dehydration symptoms can be supplemented with water and electrolyte consumed by vomiting and diarrhea through oral sugar saline or oral rehydration salt. For infants, the elderly, especially those with basic diseases, if they have serious symptoms such as dehydration and persistent high fever due to frequent vomiting or diarrhea, they should seek medical treatment in time.

  The key to norovirus infection is to prevent it. In the period of high incidence of norovirus infection, we should try to reduce going out, pay attention to hand hygiene, thoroughly wash our hands before and after meals, steam food before eating, and do not drink raw water; At the same time, strengthen exercise and improve your immunity; Do a good job in environmental cleaning and disinfection, and use chlorine-containing disinfectants to clean and spray pollutants and polluted places, and regularly open windows for ventilation; In addition, after being infected with norovirus, patients should rest at home until 3 days after recovery before going to school or working to avoid infecting others.

Shandong Port has laid out five dry ports in Shanxi and built an "end-to-end" logistics service system.

Peninsula reporter Hao Chunmei

On the morning of November 15th, a promotion meeting for Shandong Port Group and China Railway Container Company to enter Shanxi to serve customers in the central and western regions was held in Taiyuan, Shanxi. Shandong Port signed five cooperation agreements with partners and customers, unveiled five dry ports in Shandong Port, and put forward six commitments to serve customers, so as to promote cooperation, build a dry port and highlight the promised "real materials", build a convenient, economical and efficient "end-to-end" one-stop logistics service avenue, further strengthen the upstream and downstream connection of port logistics chain, improve the quality of customers in the hinterland of port service, reduce the logistics cost of customers in the central and western regions, and strive to improve the comprehensive service capacity of ports.

The promotion meeting of Shandong Port Group and China Railway Container Company entering Shanxi to serve customers in the central and western regions was held in Taiyuan.

Shanxi is an important energy base in China and the first comprehensive reform pilot of energy revolution, which plays an important role in China’s national economy. Shandong and Shanxi are geographically close, popular and mutually complementary. The convenient and efficient railway and highway network extending in all directions has closely linked the two provinces, making Shandong ports the most economical and convenient seaports in Shanxi and even the vast central and western regions. In 2018, driven by railway arteries such as Wazi and Xinhe Yanri, ports in Shandong provided services to more than 150 important customers in the central and western regions, and completed more than 60 million tons of iron ore, coal and coke.

In order to thoroughly implement the spirit of the important instructions of the Supreme Leader General Secretary "pay more attention to managing the ocean" and "accelerate the construction of a world-class marine port", Shandong Port Group was established on August 6 this year, which opened a new page for Shandong ports to grasp their fingers and complement each other’s advantages and accelerate the construction of a world-class marine port. In order to better serve the economic development of the central and western regions and promote a higher level of opening to the outside world, Shandong ports have made efforts in both land and sea, started trains in the land direction, built land ports and expanded the supply of goods, set up three "inland ports" in Xi’ an and Urumqi, opened up new two-way logistics channels between Shandong and South Korea, and added six container sea-rail combined transport lines; Open sea routes, expand cabin capacity and expand transit, and newly open container ocean routes from Qingdao to the North Pole, Qingdao to Southeast Asia and Rizhao to the North Pole.

Shandong Port and China Railway Container Company respectively introduced their business and launched six service commitments. Among them, there are not only the efficiency commitment that the entry and exit time of the 10,000-ton train of Wari Railway should not exceed 6 hours, but also the personalized service measures such as "changing large trains to small trains", "changing large trains to land transport" and "changing large trains to bulk trains", and building an active trade platform of "selling for mines and purchasing for factories", etc., which shows the confidence and sincerity of Shandong Port in serving customers in the central and western regions and working together for win-win development.

Mr. Li Fengli, Deputy Secretary, Director and General Manager of Shandong Port Group, delivered a speech.

Li Fengli, deputy secretary, director and general manager of the Party Committee of Shandong Port Group, said in his speech that in recent days, major national strategies such as the Shandong New and Old Kinetic Energy Conversion Comprehensive Experimental Zone, the Shandong Pilot Free Trade Zone and the China-SCO Cooperation Demonstration Zone have continuously empowered Shandong and Qingdao. The Shandong port at the crossroads of the Belt and Road Initiative has ushered in a golden opportunity for development, and its role and advantages in serving the country’s opening to the outside world have become more prominent. Shandong Port will join hands with railway departments, customs, shipping companies and logistics enterprises to "move" the seaport to the door of customers in Shanxi and even the vast central and western regions, speed up the construction of an "end-to-end" whole logistics service system, and strive to provide customers with the "four most" services with the highest efficiency, the best service, the safest operation and the most reasonable price.
