Fully release the consumption potential of residents

　　Consumption is an important engine to stimulate economic growth. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed that it is necessary to enhance consumption capacity, improve consumption conditions, innovate consumption scenarios, and fully release consumption potential. The Central Economic Work Conference will focus on expanding domestic demand as one of the key tasks in 2023. In the context of weakening external demand, the importance of consumption is further highlighted, and it is urgent to further release the consumption potential and give priority to restoring and expanding consumption. With the smooth transition of epidemic prevention and control, the consumption potential was gradually released in the first half of the year, and the consumer market recovered steadily, but there are still some challenges that deserve attention.

　　The fundamentals of consumption are improving for a long time.

　　China’s population is large, the consumer market is vast, the consumer market generally continues to recover, and the fundamentals are improving for a long time. Data show that in the first half of this year, the total retail sales of social consumer goods increased by 8.2% year-on-year; The contribution rate of final consumption expenditure to economic growth was 77.2%, which was significantly higher than last year. From the perspective of long-term development, the steady increase of urbanization rate in China will provide strong support for the stable development of China’s consumer market.

　　At present, residents’ demand for quality consumption continues to increase, the concept of green environmental protection is more deeply rooted in people’s hearts, the willingness to consume services is strong, and the consumption structure continues to be optimized and upgraded. With the innovation and expansion of consumption scenes, the steady growth of residents’ income, the continuous improvement of market supply, the continuous enrichment of consumption patterns and the further increase of the proportion of online consumption. The data shows that in the first half of this year, the online retail sales of physical goods in China increased by 10.8% year-on-year, accounting for 26.6% of the total retail sales of consumer goods.

　　At the same time, it also has the characteristics of fast recovery of county and township consumption and great potential of consumption market. The rural market recovered faster than that of cities and towns. According to the data, the retail sales of rural consumer goods increased by 8.4% year-on-year in the first half of the year, and the growth rate was 0.3 percentage points faster than that of cities and towns, which has great growth potential.

　　Promoting household consumption still faces constraints.

　　In terms of consumption power, the slow growth of residents’ income and unreasonable income distribution restrict the improvement of residents’ consumption power. In recent years, the growth momentum of residents’ income in China has not changed, but the growth rate has slowed down, so it is difficult to continuously promote residents’ income. Problems still exist, such as the large income gap, the low proportion of labor remuneration in the initial distribution and the low proportion of residents’ income in the national income distribution. It is urgent to adjust the national income distribution pattern, continuously increase the income of urban and rural residents and continuously narrow the income gap.

　　In terms of consumption willingness, the increase in employment pressure leads to the instability of residents’ income expectations and affects consumption willingness. At present, the total employment pressure and structural contradictions coexist, and the employment situation of key groups is grim. The intensification of job competition, mismatched overlapping skills, asymmetric information, and changes in job-hunting concepts have led to greater employment pressure for young people. It should also be noted that the aging of the population and other problems have led to the relatively weak willingness of the elderly to consume.

　　In terms of consumption environment, the consumption scene is not perfect, the types of supply are not rich enough, the quality needs to be improved, and the multi-level consumer demand is not fully met. In particular, the rural consumption environment needs to be improved, which restricts the release of rural residents’ consumption potential.

　　Release consumption potential with powerful measures

　　First, improve the income level of residents and improve the income distribution system. Optimize the wage structure, intensify the reform of the salary system, and stabilize the income expectation. Encourage entrepreneurship to drive employment and give play to the multiplier effect of entrepreneurship to drive employment. Actively increase investment in basic education and vocational education, improve labor productivity, and lay the foundation for residents’ income growth. By revitalizing land elements and enriching financial products that residents can invest in, we will increase residents’ income through multiple channels, expand the scale of middle-income groups, and enhance residents’ consumption power.

　　Second, create new consumption scenarios and expand new consumption patterns. Accelerate the organic integration of online and offline consumption, cultivate and expand new consumption formats such as "internet plus" and stimulate consumption vitality. Strengthen the construction of new consumption infrastructure, vigorously develop new consumption such as digital consumption, and expand immersive, experiential and interactive consumption scenarios. Continue to improve the offline consumption environment of residents, create a number of key business districts and characteristic blocks, and enhance the city’s "fireworks".

　　Third, create a fair and orderly consumption environment. Improve the quality standard system of consumer goods, and improve the service standards and technical standards in key consumption areas. Comprehensively strengthen cross-regional, cross-departmental and whole-process collaborative supervision, speed up the construction of consumer credit system, and increase supervision and punishment of illegal acts such as false propaganda, counterfeiting and confusion, counterfeiting and selling, and price fraud. Establish and improve the information publicity system of consumer complaints, further optimize the diversified settlement mechanism of consumer disputes, and comprehensively strengthen the protection of consumer rights and interests.

　　Fourth, optimize consumption supply and build a high-end, diversified and multi-level commodity and service supply system as soon as possible. Continuously improve the adaptability of the supply system and meet the escalating consumer demand with high-quality supply. Promote the upgrading of medical health consumption and develop more products and services suitable for the consumption of the elderly and infants. We will comprehensively promote the transformation and upgrading of green and low-carbon consumption, support the accelerated development of new energy vehicles, actively promote green building materials and green home decoration, and advocate green travel. Improve the county commercial system and guide large-scale commercial circulation enterprises, e-commerce platforms and modern service enterprises to extend to rural areas.

Follow-up investigation on the report of ＂physical examination＂ of public toilets： the signs are not uniform during the day and it is very difficult to find them at night

　　The English of a public toilet sign near Wangjing Bridge is all capitalized.

　　One kilometer away, the first letter of the public toilet guide board in Sun Palace Park is capitalized and the rest is lowercase.

　　At night, a sign near the orchard roundabout "hides" in the lawn.

　　In different hutongs, the external signs of public toilets are different; One kilometer apart, the English of the guide board is not uniform; At night, the guide board is not bright, and only the light reflected by motor vehicles can be conspicuous enough … … In December 2019, this newspaper published a report on "Medical Examination Report of Public Toilets", which triggered a discussion. Some citizens have reported that there are still some details in public toilets that need to be further improved.

　　The reporter’s investigation found that at present, the practices of public toilets in various districts of Beijing are different in terms of external wall signs, English titles for men’s and women’s toilets, and the setting of guide boards. The public appealed whether the details could be unified and standardized. In the era of "toilet revolution", public toilets have a good "lining" and a good "face".

　　The logo is not eye-catching and outsiders are hard to find.

　　At 3 pm, people came and went in Wudaoying Hutong. There are two public toilets about 50 meters apart, and the exterior wall signs are different in configuration. The public toilets near the west, because there are signs of public toilets hanging horizontally, can be seen from a distance by people visiting hutong. In addition to the horizontal sign, there are two stainless steel signs on the front of the public toilet. One piece is written with toilet operation and maintenance information, and the other piece identifies the object that the toilet can be used. However, the public toilets near No.13 Wudaoying Hutong, which is near the east, have no signs hanging horizontally, and there is no other information except two "male" and "female" signs and a stainless steel sign at the entrance.

　　In the same public toilet in Shejiahu, Xicheng District, only the "male" and "female" signs and a public toilet operation and maintenance information card were posted at the entrance of the toilet. "Anyone who lives in an alley must know that it is not easy to find it from the outside without going closer." Ms. Zhang passing by said. A public toilet in Dongbeiyuan Hutong, a few tens of meters away, and a public toilet beside No.216 Xiheyan, Qianmen, which are not far apart, only posted a stainless steel operation and maintenance information card and "male" and "female" entrance cards, and there was no obvious sign on the front of the public toilet.

　　"The feeling is a little simple. I have seen elsewhere before that some public toilets either have signs with white characters on a blue background next to them, or there are several bronze and gold characters on the walls of public toilets, or a sign is hung obliquely on the heads of public toilets, which is easy to identify. " Mr. Dong, who works near Heping Gate, said that he found the toilet in the alley by navigation, and suggested that more eye-catching signs could be added to the public toilets.

　　The reporter found that at present, the number of functional signs in toilets in hutongs is different. As for the gender identification at the entrance to the toilet, it is even more varied. Some public toilets use silver or white backing signs, while others have white characters on a blue background. For men Men”“Women, some use "men" and "Women", some use "Male" and "female", and some use "male" and "women" together.

　　The guidance is irregular and the content is not standardized.

　　Compared with the toilets and gender signs on the external walls, those public toilets standing on the street can often help the public find the toilets. However, the survey found that there were no corresponding signboards on the streets around some public toilets. Some of the public toilet signboards that have been set up are "with a tail but no head", some are "with a head and no tail", and some are too close to the toilet, and the content is relatively simple.

　　"Master, I see the navigation says there is a toilet here. Where is it?" At 3 o’clock in the afternoon, Xiao Qin, who was visiting from other places, asked a merchant. "Just in front of you, look, there!" About 100 meters south of the entrance G of the Lama Temple subway station, it is a public toilet. However, under the uniform gray exterior wall, there are only two "male" and "female" signs about the size of an ordinary book at the entrance of the public toilet, plus a stainless steel public toilet sign. Passers-by will miss the public toilet if they are not careful. "It may be the need of street appearance, and there are no eye-catching tips on the external walls of public toilets." A nearby resident said.

　　The reporter started from the Lama Temple Bridge and walked south along the west side of Lama Temple Street to the public toilet. No sign was found about 300 meters away. Until you reach the intersection with Guozijian Street, you find a sign of the public toilet. On the east side of the road, there is only one public toilet, which has erected a guide board at the roadside under the Yonghe Palace Bridge, and it has been nearly 500 meters away from Guozijian Street. In a public toilet on Chengshousi Road, there is no public toilet sign on the east street about 300 meters away from the subway station. "Although there is navigation now, it is necessary to set up a guide board. I have seen signs around some public toilets about 50 meters away, but there are also some that are not even a few hundred meters away … …” Citizen Sun Fangfang said.

　　In addition, the reporter consulted the Code for the Construction of Public Toilets in Beijing, which pointed out that there should be guiding signs near public toilets, and the contents of guiding signs should include the identification, direction and distance of public toilets. After visiting the public toilets in many districts, it was found that the signs and directions were generally marked, but the distance was hardly marked. "Direction suggests adding some Chinese characters. What if the arrow grinds away? It is also necessary to mark how many meters away, which is a humanized service. " Sun Fangfang suggested.

　　Different case patterns are quite "casual"

　　In the investigation, the reporter found that apart from the setting distance of the guide board in public toilets, the standardization of the content of the guide board itself is also a problem. Even a short distance of one kilometer, the English case of "public toilets" on different signs is not uniform. And some signs are also very "casual", and the traditional "male left and female right" has become "female left and male right".

　　Near Sun Palace Park, the auxiliary road of Sun Palace Middle Road, a Public Toilet guide board with blue background and white characters is erected on the roadside, and the English initials above are "public toilet". On the roadside of Wangjing West Road, which is about 1 km along the auxiliary road of Taiyanggong Middle Road to Wangjing Bridge and about 50 meters away from Wangjing Bridge, the English signs of PUBLIC TOILETs are all capital letters, which are "public toilet".

　　"Most people don’t care about these spellings, do they? Unless foreign friends see it, they may make a fool of themselves. " Uncle Ning, who is exercising in Sun Palace Park, said that, in any case, the case of inconsistent English case of this signboard in short distance should be corrected.

　　In addition, around Tongzhou Orchard, there is a public toilet sign that looks "awkward", which also makes the surrounding residents talk about it. "This brand seems to be smaller than the general guide card, and the pattern on it is printed backwards, right?" The reporter saw at the scene that the size of the signboard is about two-thirds of that of ordinary public toilets, and the gender pattern on the signboard is opposite to that of most signboards — — The women’s pattern is on the left and the men’s pattern is on the right. There are also signs similar to the pattern of "women left and men right" on the roadside of Yonghe Palace Street.

　　Not only that, but the installation location of the signboard is also somewhat confusing: it is not installed on the roadside of the street, but in the park lawn about three meters away from the roadside. "This brand is small, but also ‘ Hide ’ In the flower bed lawn. Not to mention looking for a toilet at night, it is more difficult to see if you are not careful during the day! "

　　Can the sign light up if it needs to be "borrowed"

　　In the report on the "physical examination" of public toilets in early December last year, the public strongly reflected that the lights on the walls of some public toilets were dim and the roadside signs were not "glowing", so it was more difficult to find public toilets at night. In this interview, many citizens also talked about this.

　　"I pass here after work every day and know that there are public toilets. I can often be asked where there is a public toilet near here. " In the auxiliary road of Jingtong Expressway, there is a public toilet around Guanzhuang subway station, and a sign stands on the roadside lawn. Luo Fei, an office worker, said that the public toilet sign with white characters on a blue background was conspicuous during the day, but it was easy to see at night by the reflection of the car lights. "This brand is made of reflective materials, but it is still not as good as what I saw in some places in the south. It is better to light it directly."

　　The public toilets near Manchunyuan Park, near Jiushushu East Road in Tongzhou, are places where many aunts and grandmothers who come to exercise "solve" their internal emergencies. "We are all familiar with this place, but young people and newcomers are not necessarily." Uncle Shi said that the internal environment of this public toilet is clean and tidy, and the heating is sufficient, but the external lighting of the public toilet is relatively lacking.

　　The reporter saw at the scene that the front of the public toilet had five characters of "public toilet" with silver characters on a yellow background, and a public toilet signboard with white characters on a blue background was also hung on the wall next to the toilet. However, after entering the evening, these originally intimate settings are somewhat "ineffective". In sharp contrast to this, because there are businesses operating on the upper floor of the public toilet, after the light boxes with large characters such as "skin care modeling" are lit, the public toilet is "set off" and difficult to identify.

　　"I think it is necessary! Electrify the light box or guide board of the public toilet, or use some advanced scientific and technological means to make it light up at night. " Uncle Shi, who is exercising, said that public toilets, as public services in the city, can be made more convenient.

　　According to public reports, domestic cities have tried to set up light box signs, LED light source signs, solar-powered public toilets signs and so on. Even in cloudy days, solar signs can guarantee normal use for 2 to 3 days.

Expose the 18 rumors of the United States

　　The epidemic is raging and people’s lives are at stake. The virus is the common enemy of mankind, and the whole world should join hands to meet the challenge of the epidemic. However, some politicians and media in the West, represented by the United States, did not focus on fighting the epidemic, but tried their best to "throw the pot" at China and fabricated all kinds of incredible lies. For a time, lies, rumors and conspiracy theories were rampant. Let’s take a look at the 18 most common rumors and facts about China in the COVID-19 epidemic.

　　With the COVID-19 pandemic affecting different parts of the world, the virus has become the common enemy of mankind. The world should stand in solidarity to combat the pandemic. However, some Western politicians and media, especially those from the United States, came up with groundless lies. Disinformation, rumors and conspiracy theories about China were making a great clamor. Here are the 18 most common allegations against China and the corresponding facts.

　　Proverb 1: "China is the source of the virus, and Covid-19 is ‘ China virus ’ "

　　Truth: The source of Covid-19 has not yet been determined, and the name of the virus must not be associated with a specific country.

　　Allegation No.1: China is the origin of COVID-19. It is the “Chinese virus.”

　　Fact: The origin of COVID-19 remains uncertain. The name of a virus should not be associated with specific countries or regions.

　　Where did Covid-19 come from? This is a serious scientific question that should be answered by scientists rather than politicians. In history, the original cases were often reported in places other than the source of the virus. The medical journal International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents reported that Covid-19 had spread in France at the end of December 2019, and the case was not related to China. WHO pointed out that "researchers from various countries are trying to find the source of Covid-19", so it is still inconclusive where Covid-19 first appeared, and there are many possibilities.

　　The origin of COVID-19 is a scientific issue which should be determined by scientists instead of politicians. Where the disease was first reported in h istory was often not the place it originated. The article in the medical journal International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents says that COVID-19 was already spreading in France in late December 2019, and the case is not related to China. WHO points out that scientists are still researching the origin of the virus. It remains unclear where COVID-19 first appeared.

　　Regarding the naming of viruses, as early as 2015, WHO issued suggestions on naming human infectious diseases and pathogens, pointing out that place names, country names and people, animal names and concepts that may cause panic should be avoided. In February this year, WHO announced that the new coronary pneumonia was officially named "2019 coronavirus disease" (COVID— 19）。 Many mainstream western media reported that Asian Americans faced serious xenophobia and were harassed and attacked by racial discrimination because of improper association between Asian groups and Covid-19. The British journal Nature published three editorials in April, apologizing for wrongly associating the new coronavirus with Wuhan and China, and calling for an immediate stop to stigmatize Covid-19, so as to avoid irresponsible behavior of associating the virus with a specific location.

　　As for naming new human diseases and viruses, WHO guidelines advise against including geographic locations and cultural/population references in the disease name. In February 2020, WHO announced the official names of the novel coronavirus and the disease it causes – SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19. According to some Western media reports, anti-Asian racism is on the rise due to the improper correlation between the virus and the Asians in the US. British journal Nature published three edi torials in April, apologizing for falsely relating the virus to China and Wuhan. The magazine stands against COVID-19 stigmatization and irresponsible actions that associate viruses with specific locations.

　　Proverbs 2: "Covid-19 is manufactured by Wuhan Institute of Virology".

　　Truth: All available evidence shows that Covid-19 originated from nature rather than man-made.

　　Allegation No.2: COVID-19 is man-made at the Wuhan Institute of Virology lab.

　　Fact: All scientific evidence indicates that the COVID-19 originates in nature rather than man-made.

　　The "artificial theory of virus" has been refuted by international authoritative organizations and most scholars in virology and immunology. Authoritative academic journals, such as The Lancet and Nature Medicine, have successively published articles stressing that the virus originated from nature. On May 1st, Michael Ryan, head of WHO’s health emergency project, said that many scientists had studied the gene sequence of COVID-19 virus and were convinced that COVID-19 virus came from nature. Jean-Fran? ois Delfraissy, a French immunologist and head of the COVID-19 Epidemic Science Committee, said that Covid-19’s hypothesis from the laboratory was "a conspiracy theory view that does not belong to the real scientific category".

　　The idea that the SARS-CoV-2 is man-made has been criticized by international agencies and scholars specialized in virology and immunology. Science jou rnals, such as The Lancet and Nature Medicine, published articles proving SARS-CoV-2 is natural in origin. On May 1, Dr Michael Ryan, executive director of the WHO Health Emergencies Program, said they have listened to numerous scientists who’ve looked at the sequences and they were assured that this virus is natural in origin. The hypothesi s that the virus was created in a Wuhan lab is “a conspiracy vision that does not relate to the real science,” said Jean-Francois Delfraissy, a French immunologist and head of the scientific council that advises the government on the COVID-19 pandemic.

　　Even the American scientific community and intelligence agencies are opposed to the "virus artificial theory." Collins, president of the National Institutes of Health, published a blog post, pointing out that the virus is naturally produced, not created by humans, and not the product of laboratory operation. On April 30th, the official website of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence issued a statement saying that the US intelligence community agreed with the broad consensus of the scientific community that Covid-19 was not man-made and had not been genetically modified.

　　Even US scientists and intelligence agencies stand against the “man-made virus theory”. Dr Francis Collins, director of the US National Institutes of Health (NIH), said in a blog post that the SARS-CoV-2 originates from nature – it is not “a product of purposeful manipulation in a lab.” On April 30, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) said that US intelligence agencies were in the broad scientific consensus, saying that the SARS-CoV-2 was not man-made or genetically modified.

　　Proverbs 3: "Covid-19 was leaked by the Wuhan Institute of Virology."

　　Truth: There is no evidence that there has been an accident of pathogen leakage or personnel infection in Wuhan Institute of Virology.

　　Allegation No.3: SARS-CoV-2 was accidentally leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

　　Fact: There is no evidence of pathogen leaks or staff infectionsin the Institute.

　　P4 Laboratory of Wuhan Institute of Virology is a Sino-French government cooperation project with strict protective facilities and measures. Before receiving the first batch of test samples from COVID-19 patients on December 30, 2019, there was no evidence that Covid-19 existed in the laboratory of Wuhan Institute of Virology. Up to now, no one in the institute has been infected with COVID-19.

　　The P4 laboratory at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) is a collaborative project with the French government. The lab is equipped with strict protective facilities and measures to ensure safety. There had been no SARS-CoV-2 in the lab until December 30, 2019 ,when the first COVID-19 patient specimens were delivered there. Up to now, no one in the WIV has become ill with COVID-19.

　　In an interview, Dr. Peter Daszak, chairman of the American Ecological Health Alliance, who has cooperated with Wuhan Institute of Virology for 15 years, said that the statement that Covid-19 escaped from the laboratory was sheer nonsense. There is no virus culture related to Covid-19 in the laboratory of Wuhan Institute of Virology, so the so-called laboratory leakage is impossible. Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, also said that the available evidence showed that Covid-19 was not from China’s laboratory.

　　Dr Peter Daszak, the president of the EcoHealth Alliance, who has been working with the Wuhan Institute of Virology for 15 years, said in an interview that the idea that SARS-CoV-2 escaped from the lab was pure nonsense. The Wuhan P4 Laboratory didn’ t have the virus that led to COVID-19, and what has been found now are close relatives, not the same virus. So it’ s not a possibility that the virus could have come from that lab. Anthony Fauci, the US NIAID director, also said that the best evidence shows the virus was not made in a lab in China.

　　Rumor 4: "Chinese deliberately went abroad to spread the virus to the world."

　　Truth: China took the strictest prevention and control measures in the shortest time, and few cases were exported.

　　Allegation No.4: Chinese are going abroad to spread the virus to the rest of the world on purpose.

　　Fact: The Chinese government adopted the most strict prevention and control measures in a short time. Very few cases are exported abroad.

　　After the outbreak, the China Municipal Government took the most comprehensive, strict and thorough prevention and control measures in time, effectively cutting off the virus transmission chain. On January 23rd, China temporarily closed the passage from Han. From January 24th, China national travel agencies and online travel enterprises were required to suspend the operation of group travel and "air ticket+hotel" tourism products. From January 24th to April 8th, there were no commercial flights or trains leaving Wuhan. It is impossible for Wuhan residents to go overseas during this period.

　　Once the outbreak occurred, the Chinese government took the most comprehensive, strict, and thorough prevention and control measures in modern history, which effectively cut off virus transmission channels. On January 23, China temporarily put Wuhan under lockdown. Since January 24, travel agencies and online travel companies in China were required to suspend operating most travel services and products. From January 24 to April 8, there were no outbound commercial flights or train services. Wuhan residents couldn’ t travel overseas during this period as well.

　　Globally, statistics show that there are few cases exported from China. Statistics of epidemic situation in several major provinces in Canada show that the virus was introduced into Canada by American travelers. None of the Russian imported cases came from China. According to data from the Australian Ministry of Health, the proportion of imported cases from Northeast Asia is extremely small. The number of cases imported from China is less than 1/10 of that imported from other countries.

　　Statistics show that very few cases are exported from China. Data in several major Canadian provinces show that the COVID-19 was brought into Canada by American travelers. None of the Russian cases were imported from China. Data from Australian Department of Health shows that the proportion of importe d cases from Northeast Asia was extremely small. In Singapore, cases imported from China were less than one-tenth of those from other countries.

　　Proverb 5: "China’s early concealment of the epidemic led to the spread of the epidemic in the world."

　　Truth: China released information for the first time in an open, transparent and responsible manner.

　　Allegation No.5: China’ s initial cover-up led to the spread of the virus globally.

　　Fact: China lost no time in announcing related COVID-19 information in an open, transparent and responsible manner.

　　On December 27, 2019, Dr. Zhang Jixian, director of the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, Hubei Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, reported the situation of 3 patients with unexplained pneumonia. This is the first time that local authorities in China have reported suspicious cases.

　　On December 27, 2019, Dr Zhang Jixian, director of the respiratory and critical care medicine department of Hubei Provincial Hospital of Integrated Chinese and Western Medicine, reported three cases of pneumonia of unknown cause immediately after receiving the patients. This is the first reporting of suspected cases received by local authorities in China.

　　Three days after the epidemiological investigation, on December 31, 2019, the Wuhan Municipal Health and Health Commission issued the Bulletin on the Current Pneumonia Epidemic Situation in Our City. On the same day, China informed the WHO representative office in China of the case information of unexplained pneumonia in Wuhan. Dr. Tan Desai, Director-General of WHO, and Swaminasan, Chief Scientist, highly appreciated the rapid discovery of Covid-19 by doctors and health departments in China during the flu season.

　　Three days after the epidemiological investigation, the Wuhan Municipal Health Commission released a situation report on pneumonia of unknown cause in Wuhan. On the same day, China informed the WHO China Country Office of cases of pneumonia of unknown cause detected in Wuhan. The WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreye sus and Dr Soumya Swaminathan wrote in a paper on the Lancet, praising Chinese doctors and health departments for their rapid discovery of the new coronavirus during the flu season.

　　It should be pointed out that Covid-19 is a newly discovered virus. At the initial stage of the epidemic, there was almost no scientific evidence to prove that this new virus might lead to a dangerous pandemic. As Academician Zhong Nanshan said in an interview on January 20, "The disease sometimes has a process of cognition, and now the detection can be detected relatively quickly; In the process of judging, experts used to be strictly appraised by the state department, but now they can be determined if they are positive twice. There is a process in the early stage of emerging diseases. "

　　SARS-CoV-2 is a newly discovered virus. In the early stage of the outbreak, there was little evidence proving that it could cause a pandemic. “It takes time to recognize a new disease. During the research process, only after strict authentication of government agencies, can experts be sure of the testing results. Now after recognizing the virus, the testing process is simplified. If the patient is tested positive twice, the case is confirmed,” China’s top respiratory expert Zhong Nanshan said in an interview on January 20.

　　On January 3, 2020, China began to regularly inform WHO, relevant countries including the United States and China, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan about the epidemic situation. China responded to and reported the epidemic in an open, transparent, timely and responsible manner from beginning to end. WHO praised "the speed and scale of China’s actions are rare in the world".

　　On January 3, 2020, China began sending regular, timely updates about the novel coronavirus to WHO, other countries including the United States, and China’ s Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan regions. China has responded and notified the world about the epidemic in an open, transparent, timely, and responsible manner. WHO said that “the high speed and massive scale of China’s moves are rarely seen in the world.”

　　Proverb 6: "China has seriously violated human rights in response to the epidemic."

　　Truth: China defended the "most critical human rights" in the face of the epidemic — — Human life

　　Allegation No.6: China seriously violated human rights in its handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.

　　Fact: China has put human lives at priority, which is the top “human right.”

　　The right to life is the most basic human right, which is recognized and guaranteed by the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights and international human rights conventions. Eduardo klinger, an academician of the Dominican Republic Academy of Sciences, said: "The China government has taken resolute and responsible measures to prevent the spread of the epidemic. Someone shouted that this was ‘ Violation of human rights ’ It is purely nonsense. "

　　The right to life is the most fundamental human right, confirmed and guaranteed by the UN’ s Universal Declaration of Human Rights and International Bill of Human Rights. Eduardo Klinger, academician of the Dominican Republic Academy of Sciences, noted that the Chinese government adopted measures that are decisive and responsible for the people around the world to curb the spread of the virus, and the theory of the so-called human right violations is total nonsense.

　　Luo Siyi, the former director of the London Economic and Commercial Policy Department, wrote that China defended the "most critical human rights" in the face of the epidemic — — Human life. According to the research report of Science magazine, strict prevention and control measures in China have reduced the number of infected people in China by more than 700,000. At home, China government strictly controls and treats patients regardless of the cost. Internationally, China has taken practical actions to carry out anti-epidemic cooperation and provide assistance. China’s contribution to the international human rights cause is obvious to all.

　　John Ross, former director of Economic and Business Policy for the Mayor of London, said that China has defended “the key human right” in the lethal epidemic – helping people stay alive. The findings published in the journal Science suggest that China’s control measures during the epidemic may have prevented m ore than 700,000 infections nationwide. The Chinese government strictly controls and treats patients regardless of cost. Internationally, China has carried out concrete anti-virus cooperation and assistance. China’s contributions to international human rights are obvious.

　　Rumor 7: "China is too late to provide information about human-to-human transmission of the virus."

　　Truth: The message sent by China is timely and strong, and the US has long known the dangers of the virus.

　　Allegation No.7: China did not report the human-to-human transmission of COVID-19 in time.

　　Fact: China issued strong warnings in a timely manner. The US knew the danger of the virus all along.

　　Covid-19 is a newly discovered virus. Determining that a new virus can be transmitted from person to person requires a scientific and strict demonstration procedure. On January 9th, the Chinese expert group confirmed through the media that the pathogen of the case was preliminarily identified as novel coronavirus. On January 20th, a high-level expert group from National Health Commission informed the media that Covid-19 was a human being.

　　SARS-CoV-2 is a newly discovered virus. It takes scientific effort and rigorous process to prove whether the virus can be transmitted from person to pe rson. On January 20, China’s National Health Commission informed the media that the novel coronavirus could be transmitted from person to person.

　　The China Municipal Government immediately adopted the most stringent, comprehensive and thorough prevention and control measures. On January 23rd, Wuhan, with a population of 12 million, was closed. On January 25th, Hubei Province with a population of 60 million was closed. China sent a strong warning message to the world in a shocking way.

　　The Chinese government immediately adopted the most stringent, comprehensive, and thorough prevention and control measures. On January 23, China put Wuhan, a city of 12 million people, under lockdown. Hubei Province, with a population of 60 million, was locked down on January 25. China sent a strong and powerful warning to the world in an alarming way.

　　The United States has always been well aware of the dangers of the virus. The United States is the first country to withdraw its consular staff from Wuhan, and it is also the first country to announce comprehensive restrictions on the entry of China citizens. Since January this year, public health experts from the White House and several government departments have repeatedly warned of the seriousness of the epidemic, but the keynote of White House officials has always been "don’t panic". However, it was not until early March that the US government seriously acknowledged the danger and seriousness of the COVID-19 epidemic in the United States.

　　The US has been well aware of the danger of the virus all along. It was the first country to pull out personnel from its consulate-general in Wuhan and the first to announce entry restrictions on all Chinese citizens. Since January, public health experts repeatedly warned about the epidemic, but the White House officials responded by repeating “don’t panic." It was not until early March that the US government recognized the danger and severity of the epidemic situation in the US.

　　Proverb 8: "China falsified epidemic data such as diagnosis and death."

　　Truth: Chinese data is completely open and transparent, and the low data is due to strict prevention and control.

　　Allegation No.8: China provided false data on confirmed cases and deaths of COVID-19.

　　Fact: China’ s data sharing is open and transparent. The low figures are due to strict prevention and control measures.

　　Why is the number of confirmed and dead cases in China low? This is due to the timely adoption of the most comprehensive, strict and thorough prevention and control measures by the China Municipal Government. Even Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director General of the World Health Organization, lamented: "I have never seen such mobilization in my life."

　　China’ s relatively low confirmed cases and fatalities are due to the country’ s comprehensive, strict, and thorough prevention and control measures. Tedros commented that he had never seen this kind of mobilization in his life.

　　On April 17th, Wuhan revised the number of confirmed cases and deaths, and some American politicians accused China of covering up the evidence of a large number of previous cases. Who knows, revising data is an international practice. Other countries are constantly revising the epidemic data, and the United States itself is constantly revising it. In accordance with the relevant regulations, Wuhan City took the initiative to correct the relevant data after careful investigation and verification, which proved that China adhered to the principles of openness, transparency and responsibility.

　　On April 17, the Wuhan government revised the city’s confirmed cases and accumulated death tolls. Some US politicians regarded that as evidence of China covering u p a large number of early cases. However, revising data is an internationally accepted practice. Some other countries are continually revising their data, and the US itself is continually revising. Wuhan revised the relevant data, providing strong proof of China upholding the principles of openness, transparency, and responsibility in data releasing.

　　In fact, the whole process of the epidemic in China was made public. Since January, China has published confirmed cases, deaths, suspected cases, close contacts and isolated observers every day. Bruce Aylward, senior adviser to the Director-General of the World Health Organization, pointed out: "China has not concealed data, which can be proved by many investigations conducted by the WHO expert group in China." Christakis, a professor at Yale University, also said that the results of his paper confirmed the accuracy of China’s case report.

　　China’ s actions in responding to COVID-19 are transparent. Since January, China has announced the confirmed cases, fatalities, suspected cases, close contacts, and quarantine numbers. Dr. Bruce Aylward, a senior advisor to the WHO director-general, noted in an interview that China is not hiding anything. And the data he collected through talks with physicians from various hospitals and other stakeholders could help corroborate China’s data. Yale Professor Nicholas A Christakis also said that his research sheds light on accuracy of Chinese COVID-19 reporting.

　　Proverb 9: "China expelled American journalists to hide the epidemic."

　　Truth: China’s measures are a counter-measure against the US’s suppression of Chinese media organizations in the United States, and China’s information release is timely and transparent.

　　Allegation No. 9: China expelled US journalists to hide the COVID-19 epidemic.

　　Fact: China’s measures are in response to the US oppression of Chinese media outlets in the US, and the country’ s release of informationhas been timely and transparent.

　　On March 18th, China announced that it would take countermeasures against the U.S. crackdown on China media organizations in the United States, including asking American journalists whose press cards expired before the end of the year in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and Washington post to return their press cards within 10 days, and not to continue to work as journalists in People’s Republic of China (PRC), including Hongkong and Macao Special Administrative Regions. China’s measures are a reciprocal response to the long-term suppression of Chinese media organizations in the United States, especially the recent expulsion of 60 Chinese journalists, rather than the so-called "to hide the epidemic."

　　On March 18, China announced that it would take countermeasures against US oppression of Chinese media outlets in the US, including demanding that journalists of US citizenship working with the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post whose press credentials are due to expire before the end of 2020 hand back their press cards within 10 calendar days. They will not be allowed to continue working as journalists in the People’s Republic of China, including its Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions. China’s measures are a reciprocal response to the US long-term crackdown on Chinese m edia outlets in the US, especially the recent expulsion of 60 Chinese journalists, rather than "hiding the epidemic."

　　Since the outbreak of the epidemic, China has maintained an open, transparent and responsible attitude and published epidemic data to the outside world online every day. Foreign journalists in China can attend the regular press conference organized by the State Council Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism, the State Council Information Office and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs every working day to ask questions about any issues related to the epidemic. A large number of foreign journalists in China interviewed in Wuhan and published a large number of first-hand reports. The outside world’s access to information about the epidemic situation in China has not been affected. China has always welcomed media and journalists from all over the world to cover and report in China according to laws and regulations. China opposes the ideological prejudice against China, the fabrication of false news through the so-called freedom of the press, and the violation of journalistic professional ethics.

　　Since the outbreak, China has been open, transparent and responsible, in updating the public on a daily basis on the COVID-19 situation on the Internet. Foreign correspondents in China can attend regular press conference s organized by the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council, the State Council Information Office and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs every working day to ask questions about any issue related to the outbreak. A large number of foreign journalists in Wuhan interviewed and published abundant first-hand reports. Foreign access to information about the outbreak in China has not been affected. China always welcomes media outlets and journalists of various countries to conduct interviews and reports in China in accordance with laws and regulations. China opposes ideological bias, the use of so-called freedom of the press to fabricate fake news, and violations of journalistic ethics.

　　Myth 10: "Taiwan Province has long warned WHO of human-to-human transmission of the virus."

　　Truth: Taiwan, China did not issue a warning to WHO, but sought more information from WHO after the Wuhan Health and Health Commission issued an epidemic report.

　　Allegation No. 10: Taiwan warned WHO about human-to-human transmission of SARS-CoV-2 at an early stage.

　　Fact: China’s Taiwan region did not warn WHO, but sought more information from the organization after Wuhan Municipal Health Commission reported the disease.

　　On December 31, 2019, after Wuhan released a report on the epidemic situation of unexplained pneumonia, Taiwan’s health department sent a letter to National Health Commission to understand the information released by Wuhan Health and Health Commission, and National Health Commission gave a written reply in time through the contact window of cross-strait medical and health cooperation agreement. On the same day, Taiwan’s health department sent a so-called "early warning" email to WHO. The email did not mention "person-to-person transmission", mainly to understand the situation from WHO. The facts are very clear. The information was first released by the mainland and then relayed by the Taiwan health department. There is no such thing as Taiwan Province reporting to WHO first.

　　After Wuhan reported cases of pneumonia of unknown cause on December 31, 2019, the local health department in Taiwan sent a letter to the National Health Commission (NHC) inquiring about the information released by the Wuhan Municipal Health Commission. The NHC promptly made a written reply through the designated contac t points specified in the Cross-Strait Cooperation Agreement on Medicine and Public Health Affairs. On the same day, the health department in Taiwan sent the so-called “warning email” to WHO. The email made no reference to human-to-human transmission. It was primarily an inquiry about information from WHO. The facts ar e clear. It was the mainland of China who first released the information, and the health department in Taiwan merely relayed the message. Taiwan did not make a report to the WHO first.

　　WHO has repeatedly clarified that Taiwan, China did not "warn" it. On May 4, Michael Ryan, head of WHO’s health emergency project, said that the e-mail sent by Taiwan Province to WHO on December 31, 2019 was not a warning, but a request for more information about SARS reported by the media. I don’t understand why this story is still circulating.

　　WHO has repeatedly clarified that Taiwan did not give it a “warning.” Dr. Michael Ryan, executive director of the WHO Health Emergencies Program, clarified on May 4 that the email sent from Taiwan on December 31, 2019 was not a warning, but a request for more information on cases of atypical pneumonia reported by news sources. He doesn’t understand why the story is still spreading.

　　Rumor 11: "China woos and controls the World Health Organization."

　　Truth: China maintains good communication and cooperation with WHO, but China has never manipulated WHO.

　　Allegation No. 11: China bribes and controls WHO.

　　Fact: China maintains good communication and cooperation with WHO, but China has never manipulated the organization.

　　WHO is an independent international organization composed of 194 United Nations Member States. The WHO expert team consists of experts from the fields of medicine and public health. Most member states, including China, clearly support the work of WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus. China has maintained good communication and cooperation with WHO for a long time, but China has never manipulated WHO.

　　WHO is a specialized UN agency with 194 member states. WHO’s team of experts are authorities from the medical and public health fields. Most member sta tes, including China, explicitly support the work of WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus. China has long maintained good communication and cooperation with WHO, but China has never controlled WHO.

　　China is not the dominant country in WHO. Before the United States announced on April 14th that it would suspend the payment of WHO membership dues, the United States was the largest source of funds for WHO. According to WHO official information, membership fees currently account for less than a quarter of the organization’s funding sources, and the rest comes from voluntary donations. Taken together, China is the ninth largest contributor. In the 21-member leadership team of WHO headquarters, there is only one member from China, while 11 members are from the United States, the European Union, Canada and Australia.

　　It is not China that dominates the WHO. The United States was WHO’s largest funder before it announced it would halt funding on April 14. According to WHO official information, membership fees currently account for less than a quarter of the organization’s funding, with the rest coming from voluntary donations. If voluntary contributions are taken into account, China is only the 9th biggest contributor. Eleven members on its 21-strong headquarters leadership team are from the US, the EU, Canada and Australia, and only one is from China.

　　Myth 12: "China is responsible for the global pandemic of COVID-19 virus"

　　Truth: It is unfounded and unreasonable to ask China to be responsible and compensated for the epidemic.

　　Allegation No. 12: China is responsible for the global spread of the pandemic.

　　Fact: The claim that China is responsible and should compensate for the pandemic is legally unfounded and unreasonable.

　　The epidemic is a natural disaster, and China, like other countries, is a victim. Sudden large-scale epidemic disease is a world public health event, and there is no so-called "national responsibility" problem of the country where the epidemic started. Regarding the so-called "China is responsible for compensation", Foreign Ministry spokesperson Geng Shuang asked: "In 2009, the H1N1 flu was first diagnosed in the United States and broke out in a large area, spreading to 214 countries and regions, resulting in nearly 200,000 deaths. Who asked the United States to compensate?"

　　COVID-19 is a natural, not man-made, disaster. China, like other countries, is a victim, not a culprit. A pandemic is a global public health emergency. There is no such a thing as “state responsibility” of the first country to report cases . The 2009 H1N1 influenza virus was first detected in people in the United States and has since spread to 214 countries and regions around the world, claiming nearly 200,000 lives globally, but the international community has never demanded that the US take responsibility or pay reparations, said Geng Shuang, China’ s Foreign Ministry spokesperson.

　　There is no international law to support the accountability of the country that first reported the epidemic situation, and China’s epidemic prevention and anti-epidemic behavior has not violated any international law. In this epidemic, China’s international notification channels are fast, timely, open and transparent, and many prevention and control measures adopted far exceed the requirements of the International Health Regulations. Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov said that the claim was "creepy" and unacceptable.

　　Internationally, there is no legal basis to hold the countries that first reported the outbreak accountable. China’s disease prevention and control measures have not v iolated any international laws either. In this outbreak, China’s channels of releasing information were fast, timely, open and transparent, and many prevention and control measures went far beyond the requirements of the International Health Regulations. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavr ov said his hair stood on end when he heard the allegations that China will have to pay and such claims are completely unacceptable.

　　Proverb 13: "China’s epidemic prevention practices discriminate against African citizens."

　　Truth: China’s prevention and control measures adhere to the principle of treating China and foreign countries equally, and oppose any differential practices targeting specific groups.

　　Allegation No. 13: China took discriminatory measures against Africans in its virus-hit cities.

　　Fact: China’ s COVID-19 response measures apply to both Chinese and foreigners without discrimination. China opposes any differentiated anti-virus practices that target specific groups of people.

The article pointed out that in order to protect the health and safety of all Chinese and foreign personnel, Guangzhou recently upgraded its prevention and control measures. Guangzhou has conducted key screening and comprehensive testing on all high-risk groups, imposed mandatory quarantine on all inbound passengers for 14 days, and imposed home or centralized quarantine on 15,000 people, including nearly 10,000 in Chinese and more than 4,600 foreigners. Foreigners include both African nationals and citizens of 13 countries including the United States, Australia and Russia, which is definitely not "discriminating against Africa".

　　In response to allegations that African citizens were discriminated against in Guangzhou, the Chinese Embassy in South Africa on April 24 published a signed article in the mainstream media of South Africa titled "Be Vigilant of the Virus of Evil Rumours to Sabotage China-Africa Friendship."The article pointed out that, in order to protect the health and safety of all Chinese and foreign nationals, Guangzhou upgraded its prevention and control measures, including prioritized and comprehensive testing of all high-risk groups, 14-day compulsory quarantine of all inbound passengers, and requiring 15, 000 people to stay at home or go to designated places for collective quarantine. Nearly 10,000 of the quarantined are Chinese citizens, and more than 4,600 are foreigners, including African nationals, as well as foreign nationals from another 13 countries such as the US, Australia and Russia. There is no such thing as "discrimination against Africans."

　　In response to false rumors such as "Nigerian citizens were treated improperly in Guangzhou", the Nigerian side made clarification. Nigerian Foreign Minister Onyama said that Nigerian citizens who were quarantined in Guangzhou were properly arranged. On April 18th, the head of the African delegation in Guangzhou said that Guangdong Province and Guangzhou City have taken many measures to protect the legitimate rights and interests of African nationals living in Guangdong. Some African diplomatic envoys in China said that no external forces, no matter what their intentions or means, could stop the development of friendly relations between Africa and China.

　　NigerianForeign Minister Geoffrey Onyeama has rejected rumors about Nigerian citizens being treated improperly in Guangzhou, saying that Nigerians undergoing quarantine there have been treated properly. On April 18, the dean of the African Consulate Corps in Guangzhou confirmed that Guangdong Province and Guangzhou city have taken multiple steps to protect the rights and interests of African expatriates there.

　　Some African envoys in China have noted that the profound friendship between Africa and China has stood the test of vicissitudes and that no external force can stop it from growing further.

　　Truth: China resolutely opposes cyber hacking, and COVID-19’s vaccine research is at the forefront of the world.

　　Allegation No. 14: Hackers from China tried to steal US vaccine research results.

　　Fact: China firmly opposes cyber hacking, and China is already at the forefront of the global race to develop a COVID-19 vaccine.

　　China has always resolutely opposed and cracked down on all forms of cyber hacking according to law. On the other hand, in the United States, from Wikileaks to Snowden incident, and then to the recent Swiss encryption incident, the United States has not been able to give an explanation to the international community. Facts have repeatedly proved that the United States has long carried out large-scale, organized and indiscriminate network stealing and monitoring on foreign governments, enterprises and individuals, and China has also suffered greatly.

　　China has always resolutely opposed and cracked down on all forms of cyber attacks. On the contrary, the United States has been involved in many spying scandals such as the WikiLeaks, Edward Snowden and the Swiss Crypto AG incidents, and it has not yet given any explanation to the international community.

　　Facts have repeatedly proved that the US has been organizing large-scale and indiscriminate cyber spying against foreign governments, enterprises, and individuals for many years. China is also one of its victims.

　　China started early, invested heavily and made rapid progress in vaccine research and development in Covid-19, and always adhered to the concept of open cooperation. After the outbreak, China chose five technical routes to accelerate the research and development of vaccines in Covid-19, covering the main types of vaccines in Covid-19 in the world. Up to now, several Covid-19 vaccines have been approved for clinical trials in China. Recently, China’s scientific research team published the results of Covid-19 vaccine animal experiment in Science.

　　China has played a leading role in COVID-19 vaccine research, starting early,with high investment, and rapid progress. China has always adhered to the principles of cooperation. Since the outbreak, China has been developing a COVID-19 vaccine using five technical routes, covering the major types of coronavirus vaccines being researched worldwide. So far, several COVID-19 vaccines have been approved for clinical trials in China.

　　Proverbs 15: "China’s foreign aid to fight the epidemic is only to expand geopolitical influence."

　　Truth: China’s foreign anti-epidemic assistance is to reciprocate a peach and practice the concept of a community of human destiny.

　　The Chinese nation is a nation that knows how to be grateful and reciprocate. The people of China will never forget that the international community gave us valuable support and help at the most difficult time for China to fight the COVID-19 epidemic. China’s anti-epidemic aid to foreign countries is not only based on the international humanitarian spirit, but also on the firm belief of the community of human destiny.

　　The Chinese nation knows how to be grateful and how to reciprocate. Chinese people will not forget the support they received from the international community in the darkest time of fighting the virus.

　　China’s foreign assistance program is derived not only from the spirit of international humanitarianism, but also from the firm belief of a community with a shared future for mankind.

　　The international community generally appreciates China’s support and help, and Pakistani President, Serbian President, Italian Prime Minister and European Commission President all expressed their gratitude to China for its support in their own ways. The African Union issued a statement, and the Presidents of South Africa and Zimbabwe delivered speeches respectively, thanking China for its strong support to African countries in fighting the epidemic, saying that China’s assistance was a real act of friendship and set an example for global cooperation in fighting the epidemic.

　　China’s kindness has been met with praise from the international community.

　　Proverb 16: "China uses Covid-19 to paralyze the western economy."

　　Truth: China’s economy is closely linked to the world economy, and China’s economy is also seriously affected by the epidemic.

　　Allegation No. 16: China intends to paralyze Western economies by spreading COVID-19.

　　Fact: China and the world are closely inter-linked through economies. The virus has also hit China’s economy hard.

　　China is a staunch supporter of the multilateral trading system. Since China joined the WTO in 2001, China’s economy has been more and more closely integrated with the world economy. In 2019, China’s import and export volume reached 31.54 trillion RMB, of which 17.23 trillion RMB was exported, accounting for about 18% of the total economy. China is interdependent with the world, and it is in China’s interest only if the world economy works well.

　　Allegation No. 17: China has been hoarding medical supplies and has restricted medical exports.

　　Fact: China has no restrictions on medical exports. Instead, China has been providing medical supplies to other countries to the best of its ability.

　　January and February are the most important traditional festivals in China during the Spring Festival. In addition, this year’s sudden outbreak of the epidemic, the large-scale "shutdown" of economic activities such as production, the surge in domestic demand for epidemic prevention materials, and the decline in the production and export of materials are reasonable.

　　The Spring Festival, the biggest traditional festival in China, usually falls in January and February. The sudden outbreak of the epidemic suspended production and other business activities in many areas and sparke d a surge in domestic demand for anti-epidemic supplies. Therefore, it is reasonable that production and export of supplies have declined.

　　Since the outbreak of the epidemic, China has been trying its best to provide medical protection materials to the countries concerned while overcoming its own difficulties. China has never restricted the export of medical supplies. China issued the Announcement on Further Strengthening the Supervision of the Export Quality of Epidemic Prevention Materials and other policies and measures in order to better strengthen the supervision of the export quality of epidemic prevention materials, which is also responsible for the global epidemic prevention.

　　Since the outbreak, despite a still formidable task of combating COVID-19 at home, China has been providing medical supplies to other countries. China has no restrictions on exporting medical supplies. Policy measures such as the ann ouncement on further strengthening quality control of anti-epidemic supplies were introduced to improve quality control of medical supplies and ensure orderly and well-regulated export, which is a commitment to the global anti-pandemic battle.

Some Slovak government officials questioned the reliability of the rapid detection kit purchased from China. It is understood that the Slovak medical staff mistakenly used the usual nucleic acid reagent detection method for the newly purchased antigen kit, resulting in inaccurate results.

Driven by the strong growth in the number of users purchased and the frequency of transactions, Taotian Group achieved revenue of 93.216 billion yuan, up 4% year-on-year, and customer management fee (CMR) revenue increased by 5% year-on-year, exceeding market expectations in an all-round way.

　　On the evening of May 16th, a quarterly report released by JD.COM Group showed that from January to March, JD.COM Group achieved a total revenue of 260 billion yuan, up 7.04% year-on-year. Among them, JD.COM’s retail revenue was 226.835 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 6.82%.

　　On May 22nd, Pinduoduo released its financial report for the first quarter of 2024, with revenue of 86.812 billion yuan, up 130.66% year-on-year. According to the financial report, the revenue growth is mainly due to the increase in online marketing services and trading services. In terms of business, the revenue from online marketing services and other services was 42.4562 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 56%. However, more growth came from transaction service revenue, which was 44.3558 billion yuan, up 327% year-on-year.

　　On the same day, Aauto Quicker released its financial report for the first quarter of 2024, and Aauto Quicker’s revenue in the first quarter was 29.41 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 16.62%. In addition, in the first quarter, Aauto Quicker’s e-commerce business GMV increased by 28.2% year-on-year to 288.1 billion yuan. On the user side, the monthly active buyers of e-commerce increased by 22.4% year-on-year to 126 million, especially during the 2024 New Year Festival, the number of buyers increased by over 60% compared with the previous New Year Festival; On the supply side, the number of monthly merchants increased by about 70% year-on-year.

　　"From the data point of view, Pinduoduo still maintained a high growth in revenue and profits. JD.COM and Ali’s revenue growth rate has improved, but it is not significant. JD.COM’s profit growth has improved, and Ali’s profit growth is under pressure. " Zhuang Shuai, a special researcher at the Network Economic and Social E-commerce Research Center and founder of Bailian Consulting, commented.

　　Chen Hudong, a special researcher at the Network Economic and Social E-commerce Research Center, analyzed that although the revenue scales of several companies are not the same, they have maintained an overall growth trend. Ali and JD.COM have shown a relatively high growth trend through continuous empowerment of their overall business, and optimized their services on the original basis through digital strategy. Therefore, the empowerment characteristics of the two companies are manifested in the upgrading of the original infrastructure, and the effect is also emerging.

　　"Alibaba and Pinduoduo’s direct revenue still comes from advertising fees and service fees of the platform, while JD.COM directly comes from commodity sales. The business models of the three companies are different. Pinduoduo, by burning money in the early stage, seized the user’s mind, focused on attacking the city slightly, and then accumulated a lot of traffic. So far, it is a problem of traffic conversion. " Chen Hudong added.

　　"Compared with these three giants, Aauto Quicker’s revenue growth rate is at a medium level, with revenue of 29.408 billion yuan, which is higher than the expected 29.040 billion yuan, and its development is relatively stable. In particular, the GMV of e-commerce in Aauto Quicker increased by 28.2% year-on-year to 288.1 billion yuan, which led to other service income, indicating that it was effective to gradually open the traffic entrance of the pan-shelf scene from the fourth quarter of last year. However, the revenue of live broadcast business decreased by 8.0% to 8.6 billion yuan year-on-year, which may be related to factors such as fierce competition in the industry, changes in users’ viewing habits and insufficient innovation in live broadcast content. " Mo Daiqing, a senior analyst of the online retail department of the e-commerce center of the network economy and society, said.

　　Ali’s net profit showed negative growth, and Aauto Quicker’s net profit grew the fastest.

　　In the first quarter, Alibaba’s net profit returned to its mother was 3.365 billion, down 85.77% year-on-year.

　　JD.COM’s net profit in the first quarter was 7.13 billion yuan, up 13.88% year-on-year. Under non-GAAP, the net profit was 8.9 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 17.2%.

　　The net profit attributable to ordinary shareholders in Pinduoduo in the first quarter was 27.9978 billion yuan, up 246% year-on-year. Operating profit was 25.9737 billion yuan, up 275% year-on-year.

　　Aauto Quicker’s net profit in the first quarter was 4.1 billion yuan (a loss of 876 million yuan in the same period last year), and its adjusted net profit was 4.388 billion yuan, a record high in a single quarter.

　　Judging from the scale of net profit, Pinduoduo has taken the lead. In this regard, Liu Junbin, a special researcher at the E-commerce Research Center of NetEconomy & Society, said that the good growth of Pinduoduo may cater to the transformation of domestic platforms, deep cultivation of agricultural products, and the demand of overseas platforms for new "good quality and low price".

　　Zhuang Shuai also believes that on the one hand, Pinduoduo’s profits benefit from the in-depth promotion of high-quality consumption, high-quality supply and high-quality ecological "three highs" strategy; On the other hand, it is the high growth brought by cross-border e-commerce business in full custody and semi-custody mode.

　　However, the growth rate of Aauto Quicker’s net profit exceeded that of Pinduo by as much as 571.82%. Mo Daiqing said that the substantial increase in this data indicates that Aauto Quicker’s profitability is improving significantly, which will play a positive role in promoting the company’s future development.

　　Among the four companies, only Alibaba’s net profit declined by 85.77%. Mo Daiqing said that Ali’s net profit fell sharply, which he said was due to factors such as increasing investment in e-commerce business, granting retention incentives to rookie employees and declining market value of listed companies. However, this also reminds Ali to pay more attention to future strategic planning and business development and improve profitability.

　　Attach importance to user experience, and the number of active users in Ali and JD.COM has increased by double digits.

　　Ali’s financial report shows that the number of 88VIP members exceeded 35 million, a double-digit year-on-year increase. Since the end of December last year, Taobao has launched a series of measures, such as refund-only policy, postal service in Xinjiang, payment after use, upgrade of store experience scoring system and comprehensive transformation of web version, to comprehensively optimize the user experience. According to the financial report, Ali is increasing strategic investment in the fields of commodity supply, customer service, membership system rights and technology with competitive prices, aiming at improving the user experience, thereby increasing the consumer retention rate and increasing the purchase frequency.

　　JD.COM Financial Report shows that the number of quarterly active users has maintained double-digit year-on-year accelerated growth for two consecutive quarters, and users’ shopping frequency, NPS (net recommended value) and the number of users in low-tier cities have significantly increased. The significant increase in the number of active users and user participation in the quarter comes from the continuous innovation and upgrading of user experience in JD.COM.

　　Pinduoduo also stressed that in the first quarter, the platform continued to launch profit-making activities such as the New Year Festival and the Spring Festival without closing, and focused on the theme of "domestic products are trendy", optimizing quality agricultural products and good brands to subsidize resources, enriching supply, and solidly helping platform users to obtain benefits from both consumption and supply.

　　According to the financial report, the average daily active users and average monthly active users in Aauto Quicker reached 394 million and 697 million respectively, up by 5.2% and 6.6% year-on-year, and the average daily active users in Aauto Quicker spent 129.5 minutes. In the first quarter of 2024, the total usage time of users increased by 8.6% year-on-year.

　　All four companies pay more and more attention to user experience. Zhuang Shuai pointed out that Pinduoduo firmly grasped the bottom-line city users through agricultural products and white-label products, and then targeted the needs of high-line users and the consumption upgrading needs of bottom-line users who have requirements for quality consumption by subsidizing brand products by 10 billion yuan. JD.COM increased the low-price promotion and live broadcast in the mode of purchasing and selling, consolidated users’ low-price mentality with 3C and household appliances, expanded the categories of clothing, beauty and household agricultural products, and improved the service level through self-built logistics. Ali focuses on Tmall Taobao platform through subtraction, strengthens brand consumption demand through Tmall, expands small and medium-sized businesses through Taobao, enriches low-priced goods, consolidates superior categories of clothing and beauty products, strengthens the expansion of 3C household appliances and agricultural products, and strengthens content construction. And increase investment in live e-commerce.

　　Liu Junbin believes that Ali, JD.COM and Pinduoduo all attach importance to low prices and user experience, which is in line with market demand. However, this wave of low prices is essentially different from the original "things are not beautiful and cheap", which requires an accurate grasp of the platform and a clear understanding of the stage and particularity of the wave market. JD.COM adopted the form of big sales promotion and factory e-commerce, and Ali was upgraded to 1688 to join the war. Pinduoduo had the advantage of low price, but all three companies had to do detailed work and could not simply deal with it.

　　Mo Daiqing added that Aauto Quicker’s user activity has been increasing, and the shopping experience has been continuously optimized through low-cost good goods supply and online sales hosting functions, and more and more attention has been paid to users first. In the first quarter, the usage time of users in Aauto Quicker increased by 8.6% year-on-year. With traffic, there will be a natural transformation, which will also help Aauto Quicker e-commerce GMV to continuously improve.

　　However, although the average daily active users and the average monthly active users in Aauto Quicker have increased, the growth rate has slowed down. This may mean that Aauto Quicker faces challenges in attracting new users, and it also needs to pay more attention to improving user stickiness and activity.

　　In addition, according to the complaint data of Dianv Bao, a well-known online consumer dispute mediation platform in China, Pinduoduo ranked first in the complaint list, Taobao ranked second, JD.COM ranked third and Aauto Quicker ranked seventh. This also reminds the four companies to pay more attention to user experience and after-sales service.

　　Due to the development of today’s society, whether buying a house or renting a house, if you can’t ask a teacher to investigate Feng Shui in time, you must pay attention to the following aspects that you can master independently:

　　(1) Avoid taking advantage of others.

　　You must never buy the top ten Feng Shui haunted houses.

　　Houses that are below the market price must have conditions that are unfavorable to the market and the renter. For example, the house has disadvantages in geomantic omen, people have died or there are structural problems.

　　(2) Not living in the old house

　　You must never buy the top ten Feng Shui haunted houses.

　　The house is too old, and it has been a long time. It must have suffered too many people in the past. Because of all aspects of interpersonal relationships, it will accumulate a lot of grievances inside the house, and it will be easily affected if it stays for a long time.

　　(3) No sign paper

　　You must never buy the top ten Feng Shui haunted houses.

　　If you see the sign paper in the house, judge whether it is lucky to seek wealth or to avoid evil spirits and exorcise ghosts. If it is evil spirits and exorcise ghosts, it is better not to live in it, no matter how the landlord pretends, so as not to get into trouble and hurt your health.

　　(4) No neighbors.

　　You must never buy the top ten Feng Shui haunted houses.

　　If there are serious patients in the house, or share with the landlord, and there are people in the landlord’s family who are chronically ill or seriously ill, it is better not to move in, so as not to cause foul breath and ruin.

　　(5) Not in conformity with Feng Shui

　　You must never buy the top ten Feng Shui haunted houses.

　　If there are many problems with the orientation of geomantic omen, it is not suitable to rent it, for example, there are sky-cutting evil spirits, corner-separating evil spirits, probe evil spirits and thousand eyes in front of the window, heart-piercing evil spirits, beam evil spirits in the room, road rush, hedge and anti-bow water in front of the door, which are not suitable for living, so as not to affect the development of one’s career.

　　(6) Not relying on cemeteries

　　You must never buy the top ten Feng Shui haunted houses.

　　It is better not to lean against the cemetery, it is better to have a distance of more than 100 kilometers, and it is better not to have dark narrow aisles. For example, if the people around the house are strong, it will not be offensive; If the house is too close to the cemetery and the surrounding area is deserted, it is better not to live in it.

　　(7) Don’t live in a dark house

　　You must never buy the top ten Feng Shui haunted houses.

　　The house is too dark, the yin is too heavy, and it is easy to attract evil; The house that is still dark when the window is opened during the day belongs to a place where yin is too strong and yang is not enough, so it is better for ordinary people to live less.

　　(8) No evil thoughts

　　You must never buy the top ten Feng Shui haunted houses.

　　People who are full of evil thoughts and distracted will attract ghosts and evil spirits, not to mention living in a house of unknown origin. Generally speaking, people who go out to rent a house are most likely to encounter evil spirits when they are in insatiability, lost, lovelorn and depressed. Therefore, keeping your mind pure is the way to avoid evil and protect yourself!

　　(9) Not living in a lonely house

　　You must never buy the top ten Feng Shui haunted houses.

　　The so-called lonely house means that there is only one house around the house; Or in a building, there is only one family; Because there are fewer people and more yin, this isolated place is not conducive to living.

　　(10) Don’t rely on deep mountains and bad water

　　You must never buy the top ten Feng Shui haunted houses.

　　It’s better to rent a house in the dark mountains and near the bad water, and even the stinking ditch of the sewage river should be avoided, because these places are easy to gather bad things; As far as topography is concerned, it is also a place where yin is better than yang. Unless the family lives together, it is easy to attract evil things if you live alone!

Deep blue automobile legal department responded that ＂the fuel consumption exceeds 24 liters＂： the data is untrue and the vehicle trajectory is special.

On February 13th, a few days ago, some netizens sent a video saying that the fuel consumption of the dark blue S7 they bought reached 24.77 liters per 100 kilometers during daily driving, and the actual battery life was far from the battery life of the meter. In response, Deng Chenghao, CEO of Deep Blue Auto, responded, ""

Today, the Legal Department of Deep Blue Auto once again issued a response saying:

1. The data of oil consumption of Deep Blue S7 of 30L/100KM and 24.77L/100KM appearing on the Internet are not true. The video vehicle traveled 151.5km from 13: 36 on December 22nd to 22: 26 on December 31st, and consumed 24.77 liters of fuel.

2. The driving track of the video vehicle is quite special. During the period from 13: 36 on December 22 to 22: 26 on December 31, it was driven for 20 times, with a total distance of 151.5km, and each time it was 7-8 km. During the period, the cumulative use of vehicles was 18.44 hours, the driving time was 6.1 hours, and the in-situ use time was 12.34 hours.

3. Although the video author has deleted the relevant video at present, it has actually caused harm to the deep blue brand;

4. Deep Blue will reserve the right to take legal measures for some organized and deliberate smearing behaviors of the Blackwater Army without knowing the facts. Please respect yourself!

According to IT House, this netizen bought a deep blue S7 200Max extended range version for 170,299 yuan in September 2023.

On December 7th, the owner found that this dark blue S7 can only travel 50-60 kilometers with full battery life during daily driving. On December 21, the owner found that the car could only run for more than 20 kilometers with full charge.

After the problem was not solved, the owner chose to drive it as an oil car. However, the owner also found that "the data that came out after adding a box of oil was about 20 oils per 100 kilometers, about 20 oils."

Subsequently, the data collected by the deep blue after-sales staff showed that the actual fuel consumption of the car was 24.77 liters/100 kilometers.

Country Garden just announced!

K figure 02007_0

　　During the session on May 17,It was announced on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange that the High Court of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (hereinafter referred to as the "High Court") issued an order,The hearing of the company’s liquidation petition was postponed to June 11, 2024.It is said that shareholders and investors will be informed of any major development of the petition, and a separate announcement will be issued in due course.

　　On February 28th this year, it was announced on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange that Ever Credit Limited (the petitioner) filed a liquidation petition with the High Court on February 27th, 2024, concerning the unpaid term loan with principal of about HK$ 1.6 billion between the petitioner (the lender) and the company (the borrower) and accrued interest. At that time, the High Court set the date for the first hearing of the petition as May 17, 2024.

Country Garden resolutely opposes the petition.

　　The creditors of the above debts are engaged in manufacturing and selling copper-clad panels.. In October 2023, it was announced that Country Garden failed to repay HK$ 1.598 billion according to the financing agreement, and issued a statutory demand for debt repayment to Country Garden. Previously, Country Garden used ""offset some of the money, but the outstanding HK$ 1.598 billion still needs to be repaid in cash.

　　In this regard, the announcement issued by Country Garden on February 28 showed that it resolutely opposed the petition. The presentation of the petition does not mean that the petitioner can successfully liquidate the company. The Board of Directors reminded the shareholders and potential investors of the company that if the company is finally liquidated by petition, the transfer of shares of the company made on or after the commencement date will be invalid without the approval order of the High Court. The company will seek legal advice and take all necessary actions to protect legal rights. In addition, the company will seek legal measures to resolutely oppose the petition. The company will continue to actively communicate with overseas creditors and form a reorganization plan with them as soon as possible, with a view to announcing the terms of the plan to the market as soon as practicable. At the same time, the company will try its best to keep active communication with the petitioner, and negotiate with the petitioner in a friendly way under the principle of fairness to all creditors to properly handle the problem (including making efforts to urge the petition to be withdrawn or rejected as soon as possible).

　　Previously, ChinaThe reporter learned from people close to Country Garden that the debt amount of Country Garden-related Jianye Group is very low in the overall interest-bearing liabilities abroad, and the radical action of a single creditor will not have a significant impact on the company’s security, normal operation and overall restructuring of overseas debts. Referring to other cases of listed real estate enterprises in default in the industry, it is more common for individual creditors to apply to the High Court for company liquidation. The company resolutely opposes the petition, and will seek legal advice, take all necessary actions, and actively and properly defend with the consulting team.

Continue to promote guaranteed delivery.

　　In terms of debt repayment, Country Garden Real Estate Group Co., Ltd. announced on May 11th that its interim notes "23 Country Garden MTN001" and "23 Country Garden MTN002" had all paid interest within the grace period. Previously, the company announced on May 9 that the interest of 35.55 million yuan of "23 Country Garden MTN002" could not be paid on time due to the unsatisfactory sales recovery and the difficulty in fund allocation. However, after efforts, the company raised funds during the grace period, revitalized the mortgaged assets, and finally paid the interest payable and the interest within the grace period in full.

　　Country Garden Group held a monthly management meeting on May 13th. Yang Huiyan, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Country Garden Group, said that the recent relaxation of purchase restrictions in first-and second-tier cities and the "trade-in" measures show that the government is taking actions to promote market liquidity and strive to gradually revive industry confidence. Although the industry as a whole is still at a low level, by closely relying on the government and actively responding to favorable policies such as white list, ensuring delivery as the bottom line of enterprises will be the cornerstone for enterprises to cross the cold winter.

　　Mo Bin, president of Country Garden Group, said that ensuring delivery is the social responsibility and conscience of enterprises, and we should take it as the core task at present and try our best to accomplish it.

　　According to Country Garden, in the first four months of this year, the delivery area of Jianke Group under the company exceeded 3.5 million square meters, and the planned delivery area in the next six months exceeded 20 million square meters. In terms of agency construction, Country Garden Construction Management (Phoenix Zhituo) currently has 33 projects under management, with a management area of 7.24 million square meters and a sales value of nearly 30 billion yuan.

　　In April, 2024, Country Garden realized the contracted sales amount of the company’s shareholders’ equity of 3.85 billion yuan in a single month, and the accumulated sales in the first four months was about 17.36 billion yuan.

The students who came to watch the movie on the same day said that although they just came to the scene with the mood of watching the movie, the result was so cool that they were "not distracted for a minute"; In addition, Fage and Aaron Kwok’s superb acting skills also caused the students to sigh from time to time, saying that "the big swindle of banknotes" really deserved its reputation. During the 130-minute movie viewing, the students were absorbed, laughing and applauding for the film dozens of times during the screening, and they still said "very cool, cool enough to watch it again" until the end of the screening, and they also took their relatives and friends to see "Fage, who is so handsome."

After the film screening, Director Zhuang Wenqiang came to the stage to interact with the students on the spot. Facing the warm applause from the students during the movie viewing, the director said modestly, "I thought it was a sound effect". Regarding why the world’s first movie-watching activity of "Warriors" was put in Renmin University of China, the director said: "Because everyone here is a schoolmaster, I want to know everyone’s reaction to the film." In this regard, the students of the National People’s Congress also gave very enthusiastic feedback.

For the unexpected reversal ending of the film, the students also shouted surprise: "This ending is really unexpected, which is very unexpected and surprising." "I didn’t know why the film was called" The Warriors "until I saw the film!" He also said that there was no urine point in the process of watching movies. "You can’t miss a minute!" Although everyone has a different understanding of the development of the plot, they all unanimously expressed their surprise at the reversal of the ending of the film. "It’s very cool and enjoyable, and it must be the best movie on National Day this year!"

Surprise 2: Super dollar bills

Super dollar bills are fascinating? Zhuang Wenqiang: You enjoyed it, probably because I also enjoyed it.

Director Zhuang Wenqiang said at the scene that he was actually very nervous when he brought a film to the National People’s Congress for the first time to meet everyone, but he was very happy to hear everyone say that he was surprised. "The director’s job is to surprise everyone, and hearing everyone’s praise is his greatest encouragement." Regarding the students’ question about "why do you want to make a film that exposes the production of counterfeit banknotes in detail", Zhuang Dao said that "the script was an accident, and many cases of counterfeit banknotes were found when reading the materials, and the story was completed in a few days, basically unchanged". The secret of success in teaching students on the spot is to "stick to the ideal and realize it, instead of finding a substitute to live like a mouse like Li Wen".

Director Zhuang broke the news at the scene, saying that one of the reasons why everyone can watch it very well may be that the counterfeit banknotes in the movie were printed by themselves. "We spent 200,000 yuan to print counterfeit banknotes, and all the counterfeit banknotes in the movie were printed by ourselves. At that time, when I was watching the money printed by that machine, I was also very happy. Not only me, but also the photographer was crazy. He was taking a close-up of the money printed by that machine all night.

It is reported that in order to perfectly present the technology of counterfeit banknotes, Zhuang Dao spent ten years studying and looked through many real cases. "Now he is half an expert on counterfeit banknotes." Although the film has a very detailed description of the production process of counterfeit banknotes, Zhuang Dao also bluntly said that "someone is not afraid of making counterfeit banknotes in the way of movies". After all, the anti-counterfeiting technology of banknotes has been updated, and movies are only works of art. It is even more important to advise students to travel abroad on the eleventh, "be sure to carefully distinguish the authenticity of banknotes to prevent being cheated."

When asked about the feeling of seeing the role of "painter" for the first time, Fage said: "I am surprised that the director has such an idea, and I am also very happy that he let me play a person who is not human." As for his massive action scenes in the film, Director Zhuang Wenqiang broke the news that the only "body double" in the whole film was himself, and all the pictures including action scenes were completed by himself. "He hasn’t changed for so many years, and he is still as young and able to play as before. I don’t know how he did it."

Can ＂no food after noon＂ reduce weight？ Guangdong Scientific Research Team： Yes!

　　Yangcheng Evening News reporter Xue Renzheng correspondent Ling Weiming

　　On April 21st, the team of Zhang Huijie from the Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism of Southern Hospital of Guangdong Southern Medical University published a research paper entitled "Calorie restriction with or without time-restricted eating in weight loss" online in the international authoritative journal New England Journal of Medicine. The results show that after 12 months’ intervention, the average weight of the time-limited dieters decreased by 8.0kg compared with the baseline, which is similar to that of the conventional energy restriction, and the diet also has obvious effects in improving metabolic risk factors such as blood pressure, blood sugar and blood lipid levels.

　　A 12-month controlled experiment was conducted on 139 people.

　　In recent ten years, obesity has become a major public health problem that seriously affects the physical and mental health of Chinese people. Studies have shown that obesity is mostly caused by excess energy caused by excessive calorie intake and reduced activity. Time-limited diet is a popular fast food mode, which limits the daily eating time window to 8 to 10 hours, and has attracted much attention because it is simple and effective in reducing weight, improving insulin resistance and metabolic disorder. However, the long-term efficacy of time-limited diet needs further verification, especially the long-term clinical efficacy of time-limited diet in weight loss and metabolic improvement has not been fully evaluated compared with simple energy restriction.

　　During the 12-month clinical study, the team strictly screened 139 obese adults and randomly divided them into time-limited diet group and conventional energy restriction group.

　　"Our culture has ‘ Don’t eat after noon ’ Therefore, we chose the time to restrict diet from 8: 00 to 16: 00. " According to Zhang Huijie, only calorie-free drinks are allowed outside the 8-hour limited eating period, while the regular energy restriction group does not limit any eating time. Both groups received the same energy restriction, and the intervention lasted for 12 months. The research team has nutritionists to provide dietary guidance to obese patients throughout the process, including providing recipes and food collocation selection guidance.

　　During the experiment, the research team conducted face-to-face follow-up for all obese patients once or twice a month, made weight measurement, assessed dietary compliance, and helped solve the difficulties in implementation, and conducted online follow-up by phone or WeChat once or twice a week to complete dietary supervision and guidance, while the time-limited diet group also received the supervision and guidance of time-limited diet. "Our experiment has more samples and longer intervention time than similar research." Zhang Huijie said.

　　Time-limited diet is similar to limiting energy intake.

　　It was found that the average energy intake of obese patients was significantly lower than that before intervention under the intervention of time-limited diet and conventional energy restriction, and both dietary patterns were well followed by patients, and the dietary compliance rate of both groups was above 80%.

　　After 12 months of intervention, the average weight of patients in the time-limited diet group was 8.0kg lower than that in the baseline, and the average weight of patients in the conventional energy restriction group was 6.3kg, which was equally effective in both groups. Compared with before intervention, the waist circumference of obese patients in time-limited diet group decreased by 8.6 cm, and that of patients in conventional energy restriction group decreased by 7.2 cm.

　　In addition, compared with conventional energy restriction, 8-hour time-limited diet has similar effects in improving metabolic risk factors such as blood pressure, blood sugar and blood lipid levels.

　　Time-limited diet is safe, effective and easy to operate.

　　Zhang Huijie introduced that during the 12 months of dietary intervention, there were no serious adverse events in obese patients, only some patients had mild fatigue, dizziness or gastrointestinal discomfort, and they were all improved after adjusting their diet.

　　Zhang Huijie believes that a time-limited diet such as "no food after noon" can achieve the effect of controlling calorie intake relatively simply. "If the conventional calorie control method is adopted, the calorie intake should be strictly calculated for three meals, which is difficult for ordinary people to operate and adhere to. It will be easier to operate by adopting a time-limited diet and eating one meal less directly. Our research also shows that time-limited diet is a safe, effective and alternative way of weight management. "

　　Zhang Huijie introduced that the research results made it clear for the first time in the world that the obesity treatment mode of time-limited dieting mainly benefited from energy restriction, which innovated the traditional understanding of dieting mode in the past and provided innovative clinical evidence for the clinical practice of dietary intervention for obese patients.
