National Health Commission: Strengthen the coordinated development of medical insurance and medicine

At the press conference held by the National Health and Wellness Committee on February 28th on the progress and effectiveness of health and wellness, Mi Feng, spokesperson of the Committee and deputy director of the Propaganda Department, introduced that the main health indicators of Chinese residents are currently in the forefront of middle-and high-income countries.

Continuously meet the health service needs of the people.

Zhuang Ning, deputy director of the Department of Physical Reform of the National Health and Wellness Commission, said that in recent years, the National Health and Wellness Commission has actively played a leading and coordinating role in medical reform and strengthened the coordinated development of medical care, medical insurance and medicine with relevant departments.

Zhuang Ning introduced that in terms of medical care, through the layout and construction of national medical centers, national regional medical centers, and provincial regional medical centers, we will strengthen relevant clinical key specialties and solve the problem of people seeking medical treatment across regions. According to statistics, in the first four batches of 76 national regional medical centers, more than 460 specialties have been built and more than 6,200 new medical technologies have been developed, and the average number of patients transferred to hospitals has dropped by about 30% compared with that before construction. The rate of common and frequently-occurring diseases in the county is over 90%.

Public hospitals are the main body of China’s medical service system. According to Jiao Yahui, director of the Department of Medical Administration of the National Health and Wellness Commission, there are 2,817 tertiary public hospitals and 5,384 secondary public hospitals participating in the performance appraisal of public hospitals nationwide. According to the data of the past five years, the development mode, operation mode and resource allocation of tertiary public hospitals in China are more reasonable. The two indexes reflecting the technical difficulty of medical services, namely, the case combination index and the proportion of discharged patients in Grade IV surgery, have increased by 10% and 23.5% respectively, and the application level of electronic medical records in 83% tertiary public hospitals has reached Grade IV or above. The number and proportion of doctors in short supply such as anesthesiology, pediatrics, and severe diseases in tertiary public hospitals across the country have increased, constantly meeting the needs of people’s health services.

Zhuang Ning said that in terms of medical insurance, China has further improved the universal medical insurance system, raised the per capita financial subsidy standard for residents’ medical insurance to 640 yuan, and continuously improved the level of general outpatient medical insurance for employees. In medicine, we will further expand the breadth and depth of centralized procurement of pharmaceutical consumables and further reduce the inflated price. Revise and improve the medical insurance drug list, improve the basic drug system, speed up the registration and listing of urgently needed drugs, children’s drugs and innovative medical devices, and strive to meet the people’s drug demand.

Continuously improve the ability of disease prevention and control

In recent years, China has continuously improved the multi-sectoral cooperation mechanism to enhance the ability of disease prevention and control. Qin Xingqiang, deputy director of the Comprehensive Department of the National Bureau of Disease Control and Prevention, said that the laws, regulations and policy systems related to the emergency response of infectious diseases in China have been continuously improved, and the emergency management system and mechanism have been continuously optimized, basically forming an emergency plan for public health emergencies, covering multiple diseases and covering national, provincial, municipal and county levels. Relying on the national and provincial centers for disease control and prevention, 20 national teams for the prevention and control of sudden acute infectious diseases have been set up, covering 17 provinces.

According to reports, since the "14 th Five-Year Plan", the central budget has allocated a total of 13.1 billion yuan to support the construction of disease control systems at the national, provincial, municipal and county levels. In 2023, the central government allocated 17.687 billion yuan for disease control projects through transfer payment for the prevention and control of major infectious diseases and endemic diseases.

Qin Xingqiang said that at present, the average reporting time of China’s infectious disease network direct reporting system has been shortened from five days to four hours now. At the national level, a technical system for rapid identification of 300 pathogens within 72 hours has been established, and 100% of provincial and 90% of municipal CDC have the ability to detect nucleic acids and isolate viruses. In the prevention and control of major infectious diseases, the rapid rise of AIDS epidemic in key areas has been effectively curbed; The mortality rate of tuberculosis remains at a low level; All endemic counties of schistosomiasis have reached the state of transmission interruption; Measles, Japanese encephalitis and other vaccines can prevent the incidence of infectious diseases from falling to the lowest level in history.

Construction of 321 high-level key disciplines of traditional Chinese medicine

In order to promote the development of China’s traditional Chinese medicine service system, Ouyang Bo, deputy director of the Comprehensive Department of the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine, introduced that the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the National Health and Wellness Commission and the National Development and Reform Commission took the lead in establishing an inter-departmental working mechanism with relevant departments, and the central government invested nearly 13 billion yuan to promote key tasks and major engineering projects to basically achieve "double half".

Ouyang Bo said that China’s traditional Chinese medicine inheritance and innovation has been steadily promoted-46 national traditional Chinese medicine inheritance and innovation centers have been built, and 50 superior diseases treated by traditional Chinese medicine, 52 integrated Chinese and Western medicine diagnosis and treatment programs, 100 appropriate technologies and 100 Chinese medicine varieties with unique curative effects have been selected and released. The official publication of the first batch of 74 books in the "Chinese Medical Collection" marks a major stage achievement in the compilation of ancient Chinese medicine books.

At the same time, the team of talents with Chinese medicine characteristics has been growing, training 50 Qihuang scholars, 500 national outstanding clinical talents of Chinese medicine, 100 young Qihuang scholars, 35 innovative teams of Chinese medicine, and building 321 high-level key disciplines of Chinese medicine.

According to preliminary estimates, in 2023, the total number of medical treatment in Chinese medical and health institutions was 1.28 billion, and the number of discharged patients was 41.486 million. Chinese medicine played an active role in serving people’s health.

Building a high-quality and efficient Chinese medicine service system is one of the main tasks of the development plan of Chinese medicine in the 14 th Five-Year Plan. In this regard, Ouyang Bo said that the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine aims to achieve high-quality Chinese medicine services for everyone nearby, promote 14 Chinese medicine hospitals to be included in the founding unit of the National Medical Center, lay out and build 27 national regional medical centers for Chinese medicine, and continue to promote the construction of 62 "flagship" hospitals and 138 key hospitals with Chinese medicine characteristics. At the same time, optimize the supply of Chinese medicine services, select about 1,000 national traditional Chinese medicine specialties and 500 "flagship" departments for the coordination of Chinese and Western medicine, determine 31 units for the construction of Chinese medicine rehabilitation centers, strengthen the construction of pediatrics and geriatrics departments in Chinese medicine hospitals, and promote the construction of outpatient clinics for Chinese medicine specialties; Taking the construction of county-level Chinese medicine hospitals as the leader, we will build a solid grassroots network, promote tertiary hospitals to help 699 county-level Chinese medicine hospitals, and achieve full coverage of grassroots Chinese medicine museums in 23 provinces, so as to facilitate the masses to take a good look at Chinese medicine at their doorsteps.(Reporter Jin Zhenya)

More than 8 models of Tiggo were exposed to brake failure, and the problem pointed to brake by wire!

If you are the owner and prospective owner of Tiggo 8 PRO or Tiggo 8 PLUS, please note that there is something wrong with Chery’s brake-by-wire technology.

Recently, Master Jiao learned from relevant channels that Chery’s brake-by-wire technology has brought troubles to many car owners. The specific performance is as follows: 1. There will be a buzzer when braking; 2. The brake pedal becomes hard; 3. Brake failure; 4. Brake jitter. At present, it is understood that some car owners have formed rights protection groups and shared fault cases in the groups.

Please step on the brakes when the vehicle starts, but the owner has been stepping on the brakes.

The corner master found that a car owner was driving at a low speed of 30 kilometers per hour, and suddenly the brake pedal rebounded, and then a fault code appeared in the dashboard. At this time, the brake pedal felt hard and the hard-vegetable pedal vehicle appeared jitter.

At present, the official has not responded to this problem, and the owner has locked the root of the problem in the brake-by-wire technology. Because some owners of Tiggo 8 PRO and Tiggo 8 PLUS do not have such problems, the problem owners are mainly concentrated in the vast version of Tiggo 8 PRO and Tiggo 8 PLUS pride+,so what is Chery’s brake-by-wire technology?

In March 2022, Chery Automobile announced a major innovation when it launched the Tiggo 8 PLUS version. The braking system of the car was upgraded and the integrated brake-by-wire system of Bethel WCBS was adopted. The core technology of this system is to integrate the vacuum booster pump, master cylinder, electronic vacuum pump, EPB and ESC. The following figure shows the comparison between the integrated brake-by-wire system module and the traditional vacuum booster pump. Its main purpose is to reduce costs and enhance the competitiveness of products. In addition to cost reduction, the official said that this system can also coordinate energy recovery system and high dynamic pressurization capacity. In other words, most of Chery’s new energy vehicles will adopt the brake-by-wire system in the future.

Integrated brake-by-wire system

Traditional vacuum booster pump

However, at present, it is obvious that the technology is not yet mature, and some car owners equipped with brake-by-wire technology have become "mice". Master Jiao then went to the domestic third-party vehicle quality complaint platform to investigate and found that there have been centralized complaints about the models equipped with brake-by-wire technology in the Tiggo 8 PRO plate, and the most complained car in the Tiggo 8 PLUS plate is Haoqing+,which is also equipped with brake-by-wire technology.

Up to now, Chery officials have not responded to the vehicles with problems in the by-wire control technology. Judging from the problem of concentrated outbreak, Master Jiao’s personal guess may be that there is a problem with a batch of vehicles equipped with wire control technology. The failure of the brake system is a major personal safety hazard, and the manufacturer must attach great importance to it, and it is necessary to complete the upgrade, optimization and even recall of the problem model in a short time.

A few days ago, Chery Automobile just released the sales data in July 2022, and the group’s sales volume was 131,533, a year-on-year increase of 57.7%. This figure successfully surpassed 122,633 vehicles of Geely Automobile and 101,920 vehicles of Great Wall Motor. In terms of splitting, Chery’s total sales volume was 131,533 vehicles, of which 50,614 vehicles were exported, up 90.1% year-on-year. The sales volume of new energy was 25,614 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 253%. It can be seen that the sales of new energy have surged, and in addition, the export volume has reached a new high. This is the happy side.

However, the safety hazard brought by the brake-by-wire technology hangs over Chery like a time bomb. However, if it is detonated, it will surely face the collapse of product quality reputation, and all efforts will be wasted.

Hebei: The two forecasting services are as accurate and timely.

  China Meteorological News correspondent Xie Pan Li Haiqing


  After entering July, the rain came one after another, which put Hebei meteorological disaster prevention and mitigation mechanism to the test and made people constantly think about the construction of disaster prevention and mitigation mechanism.


  


  Department linkage makes flooding invisible.


  "The’ July 21′ precipitation was the biggest since the establishment of the meteorological observatory in Zhuozhou in 1957, but it realized the miracle that no one was killed or injured. The meteorological disaster prevention mechanism led by the government, departmental linkage and social participation played a decisive role. " Liu Yingfeng, director of the Zhuozhou Meteorological Bureau, said.


  Zhuozhou Flood Control and Drought Relief Headquarters was built in the Municipal Meteorological Bureau. Through information cooperation and resource sharing, with the goal of preventing severe floods, fighting severe droughts and grabbing major risks, Zhuozhou actively built a modern and information-based flood control and drought relief command platform, and built five systems, namely decision-making command, video consultation, real-time monitoring, early warning release and logistics support.


  On July 19th and 20th, Zhuozhou Meteorological Bureau sent important precipitation weather report information to more than 120 leaders of municipal party committee, municipal government, 15 townships, offices and development zones and 29 related departments such as flood control and meteorological disaster prevention through the early warning release system.


  On the afternoon of 21st, at the beginning of precipitation, Wang Zhou, secretary of the municipal party committee and political commissar of the flood control and drought relief headquarters, and Zhu Ziqiang, mayor and commander of the flood control and drought relief headquarters, rushed to the flood control and drought relief headquarters at the first time and quickly entered an emergency state.


  At 3 am on the 22nd, the precipitation ended. No one was killed or injured in 69 villages in Zhuozhou flood detention area. "When the’ July 21′ torrential rain occurred, Baoding’s practices of accurate forecasting, timely warning and rapid transfer of people played an important role and were successful experiences in effectively coping with disasters." Zhang Qingwei, deputy secretary of Hebei Provincial Party Committee and governor, spoke highly of it.


  
  Internal and external training makes the prevention more detailed.


  From July 27th to 29th, strong precipitation hit most of Hebei again. On the evening of 27th, Li Xingwen, director of Chengde Meteorological Bureau, closely monitored the weather changes with the personnel on duty, and provided rolling rain warning service to the government, flood control, information officers and relevant departments according to the rainstorm monitoring system.


  From the evening of 28th, the strong convective weather in Tangshan began to strengthen. At 2100 hours, more than 50 mm of precipitation occurred in the northern part of Tangshan, reaching 100 mm in some areas. The Tangshan Meteorological Observatory issued an orange rainstorm warning signal.


  In Qinhuangdao, Liu Jian, director of the Municipal Meteorological Bureau, requested that during the precipitation process, the meteorological department release the latest rainfall situation, the weather forecast for the next two hours and the short-term weather forecast for the next 24 hours every hour, and report them to the command center of the Municipal Flood Control Office by fax, email and SMS.


  Late at night on the 28th, heavy precipitation gradually stopped. Shen Xiaoping, deputy governor of Hebei Province, was pleased to say to Yao Xuexiang, director of the Provincial Meteorological Bureau: "These two forecasts are as wonderful as meteorological services!"


  Since 2010, disaster prevention has been more targeted through the implementation of "process reengineering" project, detailed disaster prevention process, timely consultation and communication, real-time monitoring of rain conditions and disasters, normal operation of regional automatic stations, and close cooperation between meteorological information personnel, assistants and meteorological disaster prevention responsible persons.


  


  Eliminating difficulties in popular science and making defense more effective


  A rainstorm makes people pay more attention to meteorological forecast and early warning, and at the same time, how to prevent meteorological disasters in production and life has become a topic of public concern.


  "While strengthening meteorological forecasting and early warning, we must do a good job in popular science propaganda, so that the people can understand the forecasting and early warning signals and take precautions in time." On 25th, Zhang Qingli, secretary of the Hebei Provincial Party Committee and director of the Standing Committee of the Provincial People’s Congress, and other leaders made it clear when they inspected the disaster situation in Laishui.


  "At present, Hebei has entered the peak season, and strong convective weather such as short-term heavy rain and lightning frequently occurs. Here, we will explain the rainstorm warning signal and the way to get the warning signal in detail." A Weibo was posted in time by "Hebei Weather", and fans scrambled to reprint it.


  On the Hebei Weather Network, the contents of rainstorm warning signal interpretation, risk avoidance and self-help measures are added, which are linked with local mainstream media to let more people know.


  On the 27th, Zhang Qingwei, vice governors Song Enhua and Shen Xiaoping called Yao Xuexiang, director of the Provincial Meteorological Bureau, respectively: the release of meteorological early warning information has been greatly improved in terms of frequency, content and coverage, and a series of effective measures have been taken to publicize meteorological science knowledge in response to heavy rain, which further enhanced the pertinence and effectiveness of services, and fully understood and implemented the requirements and deployment of the provincial party committee and government on this work.


  


  Promoting performance management and exploring the source of consolidation


  From July 20 to 28, heavy precipitation occurred frequently in Hebei, and the rainfall of several rainfall stations exceeded 200 mm, causing serious economic losses to some areas.


  How to avoid or reduce the losses caused by meteorological disasters more effectively? How to improve the fortification ability of remote rural areas, so that the tragedy of urban disaster risk reduction and people trapped in floods can not save themselves will not be staged again?


  Taking performance management as the starting point, Hebei Province has continuously improved the meteorological disaster prevention mechanism led by the government, coordinated by departments and participated by the society, so as to improve the level of meteorological disaster prevention.


  State Council document No.33 pointed out that it is necessary to strengthen monitoring and early warning from the government and relevant departments of disaster prevention and mitigation, and continuously improve the accuracy of forecasting; Establish a wide coverage and rapid meteorological early warning information distribution network; Form an effective emergency linkage of meteorological disaster prevention and mitigation.


  "To carry out performance management of meteorological disaster prevention and mitigation is to improve the ability of meteorological disaster prevention and eliminate potential safety hazards." This is the feeling that Liu Yuhu, director of Baoding Meteorological Bureau, promoted this work.

Flora, the health guard in the intestine

There are more than 10 trillion huge microbial groups in human skin and intestines, and their number is more than 10 times of the total number of human cells, which is considered as another set of genomes besides human cells. Under normal circumstances, the vast majority of bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract are beneficial to the human body, but due to various factors, the intestinal flora will also be unbalanced, and once it is unbalanced, it is easy to induce various chronic diseases.

The second organ of the human body

We collectively refer to the bacteria living in the intestine as intestinal flora. Their total weight in the human body is 2~3 kg, and there are more than 1,000 species. More than 50% of the feces we excrete every day are composed of these bacteria and their corpses. These small bacteria are symbiotic with our human body. They are rooted in the intestine for a long time to maintain our health, so we also call the intestinal flora "the second organ of the human body".

First of all, intestinal flora can shield and influence the immune system by itself, and prevent pathogenic bacteria from invading the human body. Intestinal flora adheres to the mucosal layer on the surface of the inner wall of the intestine, forming a barrier composed of bacteria. Intestinal flora inhibits the growth of pathogenic bacteria through the dominant symbiotic bacteria activities, and prevents pathogenic bacteria from entering the human body through this barrier. At the same time of passive defense, intestinal flora can stimulate the body to form more lymphatic organs in the intestine, and increase the level of immunoglobulin in plasma and intestinal mucosa, so that the immune system is in a moderately active state, so as to maintain an effective immune effect on invading pathogens.

In addition, intestinal flora has regulating and nutritional effects on the intestine. It has been reported that the existence of intestinal flora, especially the nutritional function of short-chain fatty acids produced by it, can make the growth of intestinal epithelial cells more active. In addition, intestinal flora can also regulate the differentiation of intestinal mucosal epithelial cells. This means that with normal intestinal flora, intestinal mucosa can be repaired more quickly.

Recent studies have shown that intestinal flora has an important relationship with human metabolic diseases. In addition, there are many other relationships between intestinal flora and health. Carotenoids produced by intestinal flora can reduce the risk of atherosclerosis and stroke to some extent. Normal intestinal flora can regulate the body’s response to allergens through the influence on lymphocytes, thus affecting the occurrence of allergic diseases. Even more surprising, there is evidence that the structural changes of intestinal flora can even affect the behavior patterns of the body.

Bacteria are also divided into good and bad

"Bacteria exceeded the standard" and "food was found to have bacteria" … People often talk about "bacteria" discoloration, but they don’t know that bacteria are also good or bad. Microbial communities are constantly influenced by many factors in the process of growth, including heredity, age, gender, diet and lifestyle. Everyone’s intestinal microbes have their own characteristics, but in healthy individuals, the relative abundance and distribution of bacterial species are very similar, and they all play a role in maintaining people’s overall health. There are "beneficial bacteria" that provide positive energy, "harmful bacteria" that love to make trouble, and some originally harmless bacteria that may take advantage of the situation and cause harm to the body. Such bacteria are called "opportunistic pathogens" or "conditional pathogens".

The normal flora of gastrointestinal tract can be divided into aerobic bacteria, facultative anaerobic bacteria and anaerobic bacteria. The most dominant is anaerobic bacteria, accounting for 99% of the total flora. The types and quantities of bacteria in the stomach, duodenum and jejunum are less, and the bacteria in the ileum begin to increase. In the colon, the types and quantities of bacteria increase more significantly, most of which are anaerobic bacteria, and Bifidobacterium, Bacteroides and Lactobacillus are absolutely dominant, while Clostridium and Staphylococcus, which are potentially pathogenic, account for only a few.

The imbalance of flora leads to many diseases.

If the intestinal flora is out of balance, health will go wrong. When beneficial bacteria can’t compete with harmful bacteria or conditional pathogens, they show bacterial infection, and symptoms of gastrointestinal diseases such as diarrhea, abdominal pain, vomiting and fever appear. For example, the endotoxin produced by the imbalance of intestinal flora will increase the burden of liver detoxification and cause liver damage. These toxins will also enter our brain, causing abnormal brain development, causing autism, depression, Alzheimer’s disease and other symptoms. In addition, the imbalance of intestinal flora will also lead to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis.

There are five main reasons for the imbalance of intestinal flora: 1. Long-term unbalanced diet. For example, eating too much meat or vegetables and eating unhealthy food for a long time; 2. Ingestion of food contaminated by bacteria. Reduce resistance, make conditional pathogens "worse", or ingest too many harmful bacteria, imbalance of intestinal flora, and diarrhea symptoms; 3. Age increases. With the increase of age, some beneficial bacteria decrease and harmful bacteria increase, and the body’s immunity weakens; 4. Use certain drugs. Excessive use of antibiotics leads to imbalance of intestinal flora and decreased immunity; 5. Gastrointestinal dysfunction. Organic causes lead to imbalance of intestinal flora and decreased immunity.

Diet regulation is safe and effective.

Now we have a safe, effective and scientific conditioning method, that is, taking microecological preparations. This preparation mainly includes three types, namely probiotics, prebiotics and synbiotics. Probiotics contain a certain number of live bacteria preparations; Prebiotics can promote the growth of intestinal probiotics; Synbiotics is a mixture of probiotics and prebiotics, which can not only supplement the probiotics in our body, but also promote the growth of probiotics.

Yogurt is a good choice to supplement probiotics. It contains plenty of protein, and also contains Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus, but these two kinds of bacteria can’t colonize in our intestines, and yogurt at room temperature contains no live bacteria.

In addition to yogurt, there are many lactic acid bacteria drinks on the market at present. This kind of drink has a very high sugar content, and its nutritional value is relatively low compared with yogurt. Moreover, most of these drinks are stored at room temperature, so it does not contain live bacteria.

There is also an active lactic acid bacteria beverage, which requires strict cold chain transportation and cold storage. However, for people with gastrointestinal discomfort, drinking cold drinks often stimulates the intestines, and there is no way to guarantee the probiotic activity contained in such drinks.

In addition, bad eating habits will destroy the balance of intestinal flora, for example, a high-fat diet will change the intestinal flora. Adjusting the dietary structure and developing good eating habits play an important role in maintaining the dynamic balance of intestinal flora.

Intestinal flora changes with age, and some studies show that the number of bifidobacteria in the intestine of the elderly is significantly reduced. Therefore, in the diseases related to intestinal flora imbalance in the elderly, proper application of microecological agents is conducive to the recovery of the health of the elderly.

Commonly used microecological agents include live bacterial agents such as Bifidobacterium, Lactobacillus and Enterococcus. Increasing the number of beneficial bacteria can not only regulate the balance of intestinal flora, but also enhance the immunity of the body. ▲ (This lecture was written by Cui Yuyan, a special correspondent of this newspaper)

China food and drug administration issued the Measures for the Administration of Food Recall.

In order to implement the first responsibility for food safety of food producers and operators, strengthen food safety supervision, and ensure public health and life safety, on February 9, 2015, the china food and drug administration executive meeting deliberated and adopted the Measures for the Administration of Food Recall. On March 11th, Director Bi Jingquan of china food and drug administration signed Order No.12, which will be implemented on September 1st, 2015.

  China food and drug administration conscientiously implements the spirit of the Fourth Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee, adheres to scientific and democratic legislation, and strives to improve the quality of legislation. On the basis of fully absorbing and drawing lessons from useful experience at home and abroad, after extensive investigation and repeated argumentation, the Measures for the Administration of Food Recall was formed. The main contents include:

  First, strengthen the prevention and control of food safety risks.First, if unsafe food is found in the process of production and operation, the food producers and operators shall immediately stop production and operation; If the products have entered the market, the food producers and operators shall recall the unsafe food in strict accordance with the time limit, and inform the relevant food producers and operators to stop production and operation and consumers to stop eating, and take necessary measures to prevent and control food safety risks. Second, if the promoters of centralized food trading markets, lessors of food counters, organizers of food fairs and providers of third-party platforms for online food trading find unsafe food, they should take effective measures in time to ensure that relevant operators stop operating unsafe food. The third is to standardize the recall time limit of food producers and operators. If the first-level recall has caused or may cause serious health damage or even death after eating, it shall be started within 24 hours after knowing the food safety risks and completed within 10 working days; If the second-level recall has caused or may cause general health damage after eating, it should be started within 48 hours after knowing the food safety risks and completed within 20 working days; Three-level recall refers to the food with false labels and labels, which should be started within 72 hours after knowing the relevant food safety risks and completed within 30 working days. Fourth, unsafe foods such as illegal addition of non-edible substances, corruption, sick and dead livestock and poultry, which seriously endanger human health and life safety, should be immediately destroyed on the spot.

  Second, strengthen the implementation of corporate responsibility.The first is to clarify the main obligations. Food producers and business operators shall assume the obligation of being the first person responsible for food safety, and perform the responsibilities of stopping production, operation, recall and disposal of unsafe food according to law. The second is to standardize the announcement. Food producers and business operators shall publish unsafe food recall notices on the websites of food and drug supervision departments at or above the provincial level and major media. The third is a strict written report. If there is a great food safety risk in unsafe food, food producers and operators shall report in writing to the food and drug supervision department within 5 working days after stopping production and operation, recalling and disposing of unsafe food. The fourth is to standardize information recording. Food producers and business operators shall truthfully record the names, trademarks, specifications, production dates, batches, quantities and other contents of unsafe foods that have stopped production and operation, recalled and disposed of. The record retention period shall not be less than 2 years. The fifth is to strengthen accountability. Legal responsibilities have been set for acts such as not stopping production and operation immediately, not taking the initiative to recall, not starting the recall within the prescribed time limit, not recalling unsafe food according to the recall plan or not disposing of unsafe food according to regulations. While strengthening the main responsibility of food producers and operators, it is also stipulated that if food producers and operators take the initiative to stop production and operation, recall and dispose of unsafe food to eliminate or mitigate the harmful consequences, they will be given a lighter or mitigated punishment according to law; If the illegal circumstances are minor and corrected in time, and no harmful consequences are caused, no administrative punishment shall be imposed.

  Third, strengthen strict supervision according to law.First, it is ordered to perform according to law. If a food producer or operator fails to stop production and operation, recall and dispose of unsafe food according to law, the food and drug supervision department at or above the county level may order him to fulfill the above obligations. The second is to issue early warning information. In order to effectively prevent and control risks, the food and drug supervision department can issue early warning information, require relevant food producers and operators to stop producing and operating unsafe food, and prompt consumers to stop eating. The third is on-site supervision and inspection. The food and drug supervision department may conduct on-site supervision and inspection on the situation that food producers and operators stop production and operation, recall and dispose of unsafe food. The fourth is to carry out effect evaluation. The food and drug supervision department may evaluate the reports submitted by food producers and operators on the cessation of production, operation, recall and disposal of unsafe food. If the evaluation conclusion is that the measures taken by food producers and operators are not enough to control food safety risks, the food and drug supervision department shall order food producers and operators to take more effective measures to stop production and operation, recall and dispose of unsafe food. The food and drug supervision department shall organize the establishment of a food safety expert database to provide professional support for the cessation of production, operation, recall and disposal of unsafe food. The fifth is to strengthen the implementation of responsibilities. If the food and drug supervision department fails to perform its duties according to law, resulting in adverse consequences, administrative sanctions shall be imposed on the directly responsible person in charge and other directly responsible personnel according to law.

  China food and drug administration requires local food and drug supervision departments to conscientiously publicize and implement the Measures for the Administration of Food Recall, further standardize the work of stopping production, operation, recall and disposal of unsafe food, continuously improve the ability and level of food safety supervision, effectively prevent and control food safety risks, and ensure public food safety.

Scientific and technological innovation leads high-quality development

  Innovation is the first driving force for development. In 2021, scientific and technological innovation will support and lead the high-quality development of China’s economy.

  In recent years, the global economy has been hit by the COVID-19 epidemic, but China’s economy has maintained a growth trend. In 2021, China’s innovation-driven development trend continued to improve, the profit growth rate and investment growth rate of high-tech industries maintained a high level, and the transformation of old and new kinetic energy was accelerated during the epidemic.

  The economic growth of national high-tech zones is good.

  National High-tech Zone has become an important strategic support and new growth point of China’s economy. From January to August this year, 169 national high-tech zones realized an operating income of 29.5 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 21.9%; The total profit was 2.3 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 36.8%; The total export volume was 3.0 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 25.4%; The profit rate of national high-tech zone enterprises’ operating income was 7.8%, an increase of 0.9 percentage points over the same period of last year; The number of newly registered enterprises in the National High-tech Zone was 436,000, a year-on-year increase of 34.1%.

  "These data show that the national high-tech zone economy has maintained a good growth momentum and innovation and entrepreneurship have continued to be active." Jia Jingdun, director of the Torch Center of the Ministry of Science and Technology, said.

  The performance of high-tech zones such as Zhongguancun in Beijing and Donghu in Wuhan is quite outstanding. From January to August, the technology income of Zhongguancun Science Park was 996.68 billion yuan, up 26.3% year-on-year, and the sales income of new products was 592.58 billion yuan, up 96.0% year-on-year. Together, they accounted for about 30% of the total income, and the income structure continued to be optimized. The profit rate of the enterprise was 10.5%, 1.6 times that of the same period of last year. From January to August, the leading industries in Wuhan Donghu High-tech Zone continued to develop strongly, and the industrial output value of optoelectronic information industry reached 125.52 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 40.2%.

  High-tech Zone solves problems for enterprises in the park and optimizes various services.

  "Haidian Pioneer Park has solved the financing problem of enterprises, and the service has achieved results and the amount has reached a new high." Zhao Xinliang, director of in haidian estate of zhongguancun science park Innovation Service Center, introduced that Haidian Pioneer Park has classified and integrated the resources of more than 800 high-quality cooperative institutions, effectively linked financing needs and reduced corporate financing costs. In 2021, 9 financing docking activities have been held, including the "three or three meetings" and investor meetings, with 180 sub-enterprises and more than 600 sub-investment institutions participating. They also joined the Beijing Equity Exchange Center to recommend 240 high-quality enterprises to land on the "four boards" for free, helping enterprises to standardize their operations and enter the multi-level capital market.

  High-tech zones actively responded to the requirements of self-reliance and self-improvement in science and technology, and launched a number of reforms.

  The "Minshan Action" plan is a special practice launched by Chengdu High-tech Zone this year. It is based on the actual ability and effectiveness of solving the problem of "sticking the neck" in industrial development. After the release of the first demand list, 92 application teams were attracted, including 18 academicians leading the team. At present, six new R&D institutions, including Chengdu Minshan Institute of Hydrogen Energy and Carbon Neutralization Technology and Chengdu Minshan Institute of Power Semiconductor Technology, have successfully unveiled the list and obtained support funds of about 450 million yuan.

  "The team that successfully unveiled the list needs to sign the task book for unveiling the list and set up ‘ Military order ’ , according to the established goals and ‘ Milestone ’ Node to attack, and take ‘ Assessment once a year, elimination once every three years ’ Management methods, timely suspension of non-performance or poor progress of the project. " Wang Xiaoning, deputy director of Chengdu Hi-tech Zone Science and Technology Talent Bureau, said.

  High-tech enterprises operate efficiently

  High-tech enterprise groups have gradually become the main force of scientific and technological innovation. At present, there are 278,000 high-tech enterprises in China, accounting for only 0.6% of the total number of enterprises in the country, but the R&D expenditure is as high as 1.33 trillion yuan, exceeding 70% of the R&D expenditure of enterprises in the country.

  Some high-tech leading enterprises aim at the future and increase investment.

  At the Guangzhou Auto Show on November 18th, Iflytek Smart Car unveiled many intelligent interactive products, and officially released a set of "Flying Fish Intelligent Audio Management System". Advanced sound algorithms such as 3D immersion surround sound with independent intellectual property rights can instantly restore audio with high quality, bringing users a richer and fuller listening experience.

  "The automobile has a long industrial chain and high technical complexity. In the context of the Internet of Everything, the automobile has become one of the main battlefields for the application of artificial intelligence." Wu Xiaoru, president of Iflytek, said that at present, Iflytek is making joint efforts from many aspects, such as intelligent interaction, intelligent service and intelligent sound field, to help the automobile industry upgrade in an all-round way.

  With the rise of a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation, the global intelligent networked automobile industry has ushered in a new major historical development opportunity. Iflytek has been deeply involved in the automobile field for 18 years, and delivered more than 1,000 models, with a front-mounted capacity of over 31 million and an annual installed capacity of over 6 million.

  Some traditional industrial enterprises use technology to drive transformation and upgrading.

  Xin ‘an Chemical is a leading enterprise in glyphosate production industry in China. In view of the widespread phenomenon of "flue gas tailing" in the industry, Xin’ an Chemical has stepped up scientific and technological research and pioneered the "deep treatment technology of directional conversion flue gas" nationwide; More than 20 million yuan was invested in six new projects of tail gas treatment technology after the production of glyphosate by-product crude phosphate. The flue gas treatment system of directional conversion unit realized the upgrading of the process and the upgrading of environmental protection devices.

  Yu Meidong, director of phosphate plant in Xin ‘an Chemical Industry, introduced that the technology deeply treated the directional conversion flue gas and realized the ultra-low emission of tail gas from chemical production. "We believe that the enterprises that take the lead in bid upgrading can gain market opportunities and realize transformation and development."

  High-quality input brings high-quality output. According to the statistics of China National Intellectual Property Administration, by the end of September 2021, high-tech enterprises had 5.617 million valid patents, an increase of 15.8% over the same period of last year, including 1.127 million valid invention patents, an increase of 20.1% over the same period of last year.

  The cultivation and development of high-tech enterprises has become an important starting point for all localities to promote high-quality economic development. According to statistics, from January to August this year, the number of industrial high-tech enterprises in China exceeded 101,000, accounting for 25.1% of the total industrial enterprises in China, with 37.3% of the total assets, achieving 33.4% of operating income and 40.3% of total profits.

  "In the first three quarters, high-tech enterprises generally operated well, and the benefit indicators were generally better than the national level." Jia Jingdun said.

  The vitality of innovation and entrepreneurship continues to be released.

  In 2021, China’s "double innovation" vitality continued in generate, and its innovation and entrepreneurship continued to upgrade. Scientific research institutions took the initiative to connect with the market, and the total transaction volume of technology contracts increased significantly.

  In recent years, the Institute of Microbiology of China Academy of Sciences has made outstanding achievements in the fields of recombination vaccines in COVID-19, therapeutic antibodies, low-carbon intellectual production in polyamide industry and cultivation of innovative crop varieties with disease resistance, resulting in a market value of over 100 billion yuan. Qian Wei, director of the Institute, said that the Institute’s major needs and goals lead to basic research, and in the core innovation fields such as "microbial frontier", "life and health" and "green and low-carbon sustainable development", it has established an efficient linkage mechanism with "innovation chain driving the industrial chain", focused on major tasks and objectives, and solved outstanding problems in reality with modern biotechnology such as modern vaccines, gene editing, synthetic organisms and microbiome as sharp edges.

  "The Torch Center will speed up the improvement of the market-oriented allocation system and mechanism of technical factors, and continuously open the channels for technical factors to enter the economic system and industrial system." Jia Jingdun introduced that as of September 20, 2021, a total of 347,748 technology contracts were registered, with a turnover of 2,071.98 billion yuan, up 33.4% and 45.6% respectively, and the total transaction volume of technology contracts continued to grow.

  The service capacity of scientific and technological innovation carriers has been continuously improved, helping enterprises tide over the epidemic situation.

  In the first three quarters of this year, there were 46,000 creative teams of 1,692 creative space services submitted by 2,251 countries for record, and the total rent reduction for entrepreneurial teams and start-ups was 210 million yuan; Among the 1,287 state-level science and technology business incubators, 91,000 enterprises are incubating in 1,093 incubators, and the total rent reduction for incubating enterprises is 370 million yuan; Among the 139 national university science parks, 103 submitted statistics reduced or exempted the rent by 38.067 million yuan for incubating enterprises.

  Yang Bin, president of China Science and Technology Development Institute, said that up to now, the incubation system of China Development Institute has operated 30 incubation carriers nationwide, with 1,815 incubating enterprises and 1,164 graduated enterprises. "After the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic, in order to cope with the operational difficulties of small and medium-sized enterprises, the China Development Institute actively responded to national policies. The Shenzhen Incubation Base and the national holding bases successively reduced the rent and incubation service fees for small and medium-sized technology enterprises, reaching 17 million yuan."

  Science and technology enterprises have received continuous support from financial institutions, and technology stocks have increasingly become the main force in the capital market.

  According to statistics, by the end of August, 51.1% of high-tech enterprises had received loan support from financial institutions, and the number of high-tech enterprises that received loan support increased by 5,655 compared with the beginning of the year; The loan balance of 142,000 high-tech enterprises was 8,868.77 billion yuan, with an average loan support of 62.466 million yuan for each enterprise; The loan rate of small and medium-sized science and technology enterprises was 42.9%, and the number of enterprises supported by loans increased by 5,723 compared with the beginning of the year, and the accumulated loan amount exceeded 1 trillion yuan.

  By the end of September, 43.9% and 50.2% of high-tech enterprises had publicly issued shares on the main board of Shanghai Stock Exchange and Shenzhen Stock Exchange, and 95.0% and 87.1% had publicly issued shares on the Growth Enterprise Market of science and technology innovation board Stock Exchange and Shenzhen Stock Exchange.

Wonderful moment

Excerpts from interviews

Rough study will eventually lead to angels in white’s dream

Lin Dong (hereinafter referred to as "Dong"):Where are you from? What was life like as a child?

Ling Xiuzhen (hereinafter referred to as "Ling"): I was born in a poor peasant family in Zengjiazhuang, Anxin County, Hebei Province on November 15th, 1923. Farming is the main task at home, because near Baiyangdian, my father sometimes cooks fish and my mother spins and weaves, thus making a living. When I was a child, I went to primary school in the village for a few days, but later I stopped going because of difficulties at home.

When I was about 11 years old, an American missionary of Baoding Presbyterian Church was also the head nurse of Silo Hospital in Xiguan Presbyterian Church in Baoding. Her name was Kai Aide. She came to our village with several people to preach and treat the villagers. At that time, I had a serious trachoma, and they treated me patiently, and it didn’t take long for me to be cured. They also taught me to read and sing. Kai Aide saw that I was smart, and he heard that my aunt was studying at Xiguan Presbyterian Church School in Baoding, so he discussed with my family and wanted to take me to Baoding to study with my aunt, which was funded by the church. Considering that there are many children at home and life is difficult, my parents agreed.

▲ Ling Xiuzhen in primary school

In 1935, I left home and went to Baoding to go to my aunt. I started primary school in Baoding Xiguan Gospel Girls’ School and graduated from high school in September 1938. After graduation, there was no funding from the church. A primary school teacher introduced me to Tongxian Fuyu Girls’ Middle School [1] for junior high school. This is a work-study school founded by the Christian Congregation, which takes care of the poor, and my conditions are just right.

Dong:How did you continue your studies without church support? Did you ask your family for help?

Ling: Shortly after I left home, the Japanese army invaded Baoding [2]. Anxin County was an anti-Japanese guerrilla zone. Under the war, I was cut off from my family. It was not until Beiping was peacefully liberated in 1949 that I got in touch with my family again.

I haven’t seen Kai Aide since I left Baoding to attend junior high school in Tongxian County. Later, I heard that she has returned to the United States. Fuyu Girls’ Middle School is also a missionary school. After studying, students make cross-flowers by hand and process them into tablecloths and pillow towels. The principal sells the finished products, and the money sold is used to help us poor students. I didn’t have a place to go during the summer vacation, so I stayed at school to continue to do handicrafts and earn some money. My life depended on this until I graduated from middle school in 1941.

Dong:Is it your ideal to be a nurse?

Ling: I have long liked nurses. When I was a child, I got trachoma, and the nurse in the mission hospital cured me for free. I am particularly grateful. It would be great to cure the disease in the countryside without spending money. I also want to have the ability to help people treat diseases. When I was in primary school, there was a missionary hospital next to the school. I often saw nurses dressed in white clothes, like angels, and I thought they were beautiful and envied their lives. Since then, I have liked the profession of nurses.

When I graduated from junior high school, the Senior Nurse School of Boji Hospital in Dexian County, Shandong Province [3] came to recruit students. Considering that I have no financial resources and can’t get in touch with my family, I can study as a nurse for the time being without spending money. I also like this profession, so I signed up with my good friend Zhang Shumin [4], and her situation is similar to mine. This nursing school is also a missionary school. The principal is a foreigner, and tuition and meals are free. In order to save money for the trip to Shandong, after graduating from junior high school, Zhang Shumin and I continued to do manual work of picking flowers at school for two months.

In September 1941, we arrived in Shandong. However, I only attended classes for more than two months. In December, the Pacific War broke out. Because the hospitals and nursing schools were in the charge of Americans, Japanese soldiers came soon and announced the closure of hospitals and the dissolution of nursing schools.

Dong:Where did you go after the school was dissolved?

Ling: The nursing school with food and shelter was dissolved, and Zhang Shumin and I had no place to live. We had a primary school teacher named Liu Lanfang, who was working in Tianjin Enguang Hospital, so we went to Tianjin to find a teacher. A friend of the teacher is an old lady, and her lover works as a personnel worker in Beiyang Spinning Factory, Haihe Road, Tianjin, so she introduced us to the factory as female workers.

In the spinning mill, we work 12 hours a day, starting at six in the morning and leaving at six in the evening. Every day, we often don’t see the sun at the end of the day. The factory also stipulates that workers can’t go through the main entrance after work, but only through the small door at the back. They have to be searched from head to toe when leaving the factory, which is greatly insulted. Therefore, Zhang Shumin and I rarely leave the factory, only occasionally go out to see the teacher.

We have worked in Beiyang spinning mill for 20 months, and the monthly salary is only enough to buy a bag of flour. At that time, I mainly wanted to find a place to live. I could earn some money to support myself by working, and I could also save some money, so that I could continue to study in a nursing school later.

▲ In 1942, Ling Xiuzhen (third from left) and Zhang Shumin (third from right) took a group photo with the workers in the spinning mill.

Dong:What kind of opportunity did you have to return to school later?

Ling: In August, 1943, the opportunity came to continue studying nursing school. Teacher Liu told us that the nursing school of Shanxi Taigu Renshu Hospital [5] is recruiting students, and there are our classmates there. Hearing this news, we were so happy that we contacted our classmates as soon as possible. Zhang Shumin and I scrimped and saved a little money, but it was easy to lose money in those days [6], so we bought some flower cloth to take with us, and then we wanted to exchange it for money, so we left the spinning mill and went to Shanxi.

Dong:How do you feel about going back to the nursing school again? What is study and life like?

Ling: I left the spinning mill in darkness and went back to the nursing school that I had been looking forward to day and night. I was in a very happy mood and made up my mind to study hard and become a nurse. The study content of nursing school is similar to that of now, including culture class, operation class, anatomy, pharmacology and so on. After the theoretical class, there will be clinical practice in Renshu Hospital. At that time, I got good grades in my homework and nursing skills, and I won a scholarship. Although I only had a few dollars, I felt great. But I didn’t expect that in December 1944, the Japanese army invaded the hospital and the nursing school was closed.

▲ Ling Xiuzhen during her study in nursing school.

Dong:Forced to leave school again, where did you go?

Ling: After the school closed, many students went home, and my life with Zhang Shumin was lost. I feel very sad because my nursing studies have not been completed. At that time, three sisters Liu Jialan, Liu Jiahui and Liu Jiaqi who had worked with us in Beiyang Spinning Factory also left Tianjin to work in Yangquan. Hearing that we had nowhere to go, they took us to Yangquan. After arriving in Yangquan, I didn’t dare to go out at all. The streets were full of Japanese soldiers and I stayed at home all day. Later, with the help of Wang Jingguo, the husband of my middle school classmate Rong Fenglan, Zhang Shumin and I found a job temporarily. I was introduced to the business office of Yangquan Electric Company to copy the user’s electricity meter and electricity bill.

In 1946, on the second day of the first lunar month, Taigu Renshu Hospital resumed nursing school. After getting the news, Zhang Shumin and I hurried back to Taigu to continue our education until we graduated in January 1948. My nursing school can be regarded as finished, which adds up to nearly four years.

Dong:Looking back on this tortuous life and school experience, what do you think?

Ling: This experience has a great influence on me. People’s life is not easy. If you want to live, you have to struggle, and you have to do everything well, otherwise you may not have the opportunity to continue doing this job. If I work in a cotton mill, if I don’t work by the hour, people won’t want you. So is learning to be a nurse. If you don’t study hard, people won’t want you. Especially in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression’s time, it was not easy, so we had to struggle on our own and be a good person. Of course, I also relied on the help of teachers and classmates in this period. They introduced me to work, and I worked hard to earn some money to finish the nursing school, otherwise it wouldn’t work.

Toss and turn to the west and the east to determine the concord.

Dong:What’s your first job after graduation? Did you get your dream of being a nurse?

Ling: When I graduated, there was a Seventh Epidemic Prevention Brigade in Taiyuan. Several nurses in the team graduated from our school, so they introduced us to the past. Their main job was to get vaccination.

Six months later, the captain’s secretary was going back to Beijing. Several people in our team discussed with him and wanted to come together. He agreed. Taking this opportunity, I was also brought to Beijing. I came by plane. It was my first time to fly. A classmate’s brother worked at the airport and helped to buy a plane ticket, so friends helped me everywhere.

After arriving in Beijing, through the introduction of Wang Dimin, the former captain of the epidemic prevention brigade, our lesbians were arranged to help in Dongsi Qianliang Hutong Maternal and Infant Health Center and work as nurses. After working for about a month, my colleague Lu Yueying introduced me to the children’s hospital at the south exit of Fuyou Street, where I worked as a night nurse for another month.

Dong:How did you come to work in Peking Union Medical College Hospital?

Ling: In November 1948, a colleague from Taiyuan, Beijing, called me back to the newly established Eleventh Epidemic Prevention Brigade in Qianliang Hutong, which organized doctors and nurses to go to the countryside for epidemic prevention. I still want to be a nurse in the hospital, so I’m going to find another place to work. I discussed with Zhang Shumin and other friends, and they all advised me to come to Concord. I was worried that I was from a nursing school in a small hospital, and I was afraid that I could not keep up with my work, but they encouraged me to try. Zhang Shumin asked for a nurse registration form for me, so I got up the courage and came to Concord with my diploma in nursing school in Renshu Hospital.

I went in from the west gate of the hospital, walked to the nursing department office downstairs in Building 5 of the old building, and found Nie Yuchan, the director of the nursing department. She was the first person I met in Concord. I handed her my diploma. She asked me about my previous work and whether I had ever been to Concord. After chatting for a while, she said, "OK, come for a physical examination on the 13th, and go to work if there is nothing wrong with the physical examination." She is very capable and kind, and she is very organized and decisive.

▲ Ling Xiuzhen (right) and Zhang Shumin (left) took a group photo in front of the Union Nurse Building.

This is the result I am looking forward to, and I am very happy in my heart. One is that I have a fixed job, and the other is that I have finally stabilized. On December 13, 1948, I officially entered Concord, and I have been a Concord person since then. Until I left Concord in the Spring Festival of 1990, I spent most of my life in Concord, so my feelings for Concord are closer than home.

Dong:What impressed you when you first entered the Union Medical College Hospital? What are the differences between nursing work and before?

Ling: After I arrived at Concord, the first thing I felt was the grandeur of the building, which was my first impression. The equipment and facilities are good in all aspects, so it is very convenient to work. Like Shanxi Taigu Renshu Hospital, the conditions are worse, and many of them are simple because of their ignorance.

The other is that the attitude towards patients is really good. After work, I was assigned to the outpatient clinic, which is located on the first floor of Building No.10 in the current old building, mainly to accompany patients to see doctors. I especially remember that a mother came to see a doctor with a child of six or seven years old. The child had a sore on her leg and cried and was afraid to see the doctor. Wu Weiran [8], a doctor who makes house calls, has a particularly good attitude, speaks gently and has skills. When the child chats with him, he stops crying. Dr. Wu Weiran puts the child in his arms and sees the disease. The nurse next to him also said, "Little friend, I’ll get it for you. It doesn’t hurt." When the doctor said this and the nurse was so coaxed, the child stopped crying and went with the nurse to change the medicine. I went behind my mother and followed the nurse. Look how much this has changed. I watched, thinking how good this doctor is, how good this nurse is, and patients don’t suffer. This is my education, so I also learn from them in my later work and never yell at patients.

▲ Ling Xiuzhen (right) and colleagues took a group photo at the platform of the old building of Peking Union Medical College Hospital.

Later, I was transferred from the outpatient department to the obstetrics and gynecology department, and after a period of time, I went to the internal medicine department. At that time, the internal medicine ward was on the second floor of Building 8 of the old building, and the head nurse was Li Yixiu, who graduated from Concord Nursing School. She is very strict and has given me a lot of education. For example, I can’t talk loudly in the ward, I can’t wear hard-soled shoes, and I can’t eat delicious food such as garlic and onions during work. In addition, when you go to work, you should patrol the patient’s bed more, and you can’t get together and chat in the office. She is also very strict in checking. When she sees what you did wrong, she points it out at once, and then checks it after you finish. I don’t know when she will stand behind you and look at you at work. She often gives lectures at morning meetings and encourages us to talk to patients more. I learned a lot of nursing knowledge from her. I think nurses should be like this, serious and solemn, but also cute and gentle.

After coming out of the internal medicine ward, I went to work in the foreign guest ward for a while. In 1951, the hospital wanted to set up a separate neuropsychiatric department, so I was transferred to the neuropsychiatric ward.

Dong:What are the characteristics of the work in the neuropsychiatric ward?

Ling: In order to prevent mental patients from jumping off buildings, the neuropsychiatric ward is located in Building 8 of the old building, with more than 20 beds. The ward is divided into a big room and a small room, and there is a place like a living room in the middle, where patients can do manual work and have work and entertainment treatment. Guo Jufen, the head nurse, also graduated from Xiehe Nursing School, and her working methods and attitude also made me very educated. Different from the patients in the internal medicine ward, the owners of neuropsychiatric diseases are mainly schizophrenic patients, some of whom are completely unconscious, others are clear and sometimes unconscious. In addition to medical and nursing work, we should also prevent them from committing suicide and hurting others. At that time, there were two or three male nurses in the ward, and each staff member had a key. The door should be kept locked, otherwise the patient would run out. Once, a patient ran out and shouted, "I ran, I ran!" " As a result, he was stopped by the doorman and called us quickly.

Later, the neuropsychiatry was changed to neurology, and the ward was moved to the first floor of Building No.8 in the old building, and the number of beds was increased to more than 40. No mental patients were treated, only patients with basically clear consciousness and neuroorganic diseases were treated, among whom there were many comas and urinary incontinence. The patient’s situation is different, and the focus of nursing work is different. The nursing workload of neurology department is very heavy. Take the urine pad replacement of patients with urinary incontinence as an example. Half of the urine pads in the hospital are used in neurology wards, which shows that the number of changes is frequent and many people use them.

To resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea and care for the loveliest people.

Dong:Please talk about your experience in participating in the volunteer surgery team to resist US aggression and aid Korea.

Ling: At the end of 1950, Beijing set up a voluntary surgical team to resist US aggression and aid Korea, and called on all hospitals to actively register. I thought it was a glorious thing, so I signed up. After being approved by the hospital, in April 1952, I followed the surgical team to the 13th Army Hospital in Xingcheng, Liaoning Province, which was the rear battlefield of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and all the wounded soldiers who came back from the front were treated there.

After I went, I worked as a head nurse in the supply room. At that time, there were many surgical operations. The supply room in their hospital was quite large, and there were several little nurses there. We exchanged experiences. I introduced the situation of Concord to them, and everyone cooperated happily. Although I have never worked in the supply room before, the general nurses know which surgical instruments should be packaged, which should be steamed and how long it should be disinfected. In fact, it is material management. I combined the specific situation at that time and discussed the process with them to make the work more convenient.

After the work was carried out in an orderly manner, I made time to go to the ward. I saw that the soldiers had only one eye, some had missing arms, some had broken legs, some had missing ears, and some had only half their faces … I was particularly unhappy. I will try my best to help them, such as writing letters, reading newspapers and telling stories. But I think it’s more important that they told me how they killed the enemy at the front and how they got their injuries. They were all heroic and selfless acts, which taught me a lot. I think they are really lovely and respectable.

In this way, I ran to the ward as soon as I was free, and I gradually became familiar with the soldiers. Sometimes when I was late or didn’t go all day, they asked me, "Why are you late today?" "Why didn’t you come yesterday?" Everyone has a lot of affection for each other. Some soldiers gave me photos as souvenirs when they left the hospital, and some said to me, "Head nurse, I’m leaving. I don’t know when I can meet again!" They need psychological comfort and help, but while helping them, I am more educated.

Dong:How long have you worked there?

Ling: The operation team rotates every four months. Originally, it was stipulated that everyone only participated in one phase. After I finished my first phase as head nurse, the organization arranged for me to stay and continue to work as the secretary of the operation team. At that time, the team leader was Zhang Jinzhe [9]. So I returned to Concord in early 1953 and worked there for less than a year.

There was tension and happiness in that life. The soldiers in the ward and our diet were good. After dinner, everyone gave back a big apple and put it on the bed, which meant peace. Xingcheng is near the sea. Every Sunday, the team members can go to the sea together. I also use my spare time to organize employees of the 13th Army Hospital to play basketball with the surgical team.

Dong:What impact does this work experience have on you?

Ling: I haven’t done much work in recent months. If I have time, I can do more. The deeds of the volunteers should be publicized. They fought bravely at the front line, paying for us and bleeding for us. What should we do? We should at least help. After I come back, I often think of those soldiers, especially those who meet soldiers at work. I will be very kind to them. Before I went to work in Concord, I tried my best to live. After I joined the volunteer operation team to resist US aggression and aid Korea, I wanted to not only live, but also know why I lived. This experience is really a great education for me, and I didn’t go in vain.

Everyone is in charge and manages the ward together

Dong:After you came back from the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, you worked as a head nurse in a neurological ward for more than 30 years. What did you learn from being a head nurse?

Ling: The management of the ward mainly depends on the head nurse. The nurses have done the specific operation. The head nurse should worry more about the management. If there is something to discuss, let’s unite as a fist and move forward. It’s very important for the head nurse to take the lead. If you just say no, you have to do it, and you have to be sincere. If you are sincere, you will keep your word, and comrades will see it.

After working for decades, I have never had a knot in my heart with anyone, but I am very honest with them, so that everyone is happy and the work is done well. At present, our comrades on the eighth floor still often get together and miss their work. This friendship was formed by helping each other and uniting with each other at work. So I think it’s easy and not easy to be a head nurse.

▲ Ling Xiuzhen works in the ward.

Dong:Do you have any innovative practices in nursing work?

Ling: Shame, there is no innovation in my life, just trying to do a good job in ordinary work.

After the downfall of the Gang of Four, the hospital called for rectifying wards, strengthening clinical nursing and improving the quality of medical care. How to do it? I discussed it with my comrades, and everyone came up with ideas. Some old comrades suggested that we should restore the effective system in the past. We classify the work of the ward, so that "everyone is in charge of everything, and everyone is in charge", and everyone is the master of the house.

Rectifying the ward begins with the companion system. At that time, there were 43 beds, 23 accompanying family members, plus doctors and nurses, and dozens of people were going back and forth in the ward. It was really chaotic. Some people said that our ward was a small Dongan market, so we must reduce our companionship. There was a patient who was completely paralyzed, but he was conscious and weighed more than 200 kilograms. More than one person at home took care of him, and two nurses in the ward struggled to turn him over. Hearing that the ward asked the family members not to accompany the bed, the patient immediately began to cry, and the family members were also uncomfortable. We patiently explained to him, and the comrades also took good care of him. Three days later, the patient said, "Head nurse, I don’t need my family to accompany me. You are doing better than them!" We have completed the task of the hospital, and the patients feel quite good, which is the result of our joint efforts.

To prevent patients from falling out of bed, one of our nurse comrades, Lao Sun, thought that patients fell because there were no fences on both sides of the bed, so it might be useful to weave nets. I brought him a thick rope, and he made a net and put it on both sides of the bed, so that the patient was safe. When a nurse visited, she found a patient in a net bag, so she quickly got him up. So for so many years, we have never had a patient fall.

Ward clothing management is also a difficult problem, because there are many serious patients and frequent changes, we will arrange special personnel to take charge of it, set a number of rules, and strengthen the inventory when handing over to the laundry room to ensure that the number is correct and will not affect everyone’s use.

One of the ways to improve the quality of medical care is to strengthen morning and evening care. Because there are many patients in the neurology department who are bedridden and have urinary incontinence, they are prone to bedsores, so we give them a "small bath" in the morning and evening, so that the patients are clean and comfortable, and we can also carefully observe and detect the changes in the patient’s condition in time. When the shift is over at the bedside, patients with slight early signs of bedsore will be marked at the bedside, so no patients here have ever had bedsore.

Besides clinical nursing, other auxiliary things should also be done well. We also rectify the ward environment, standardize the management of goods, make everything in its place, clean the environment and so on. When the hospital summarizes the work of rectifying the ward, I will be assigned to make a report to the whole hospital to introduce our experience on the eighth floor.

▲ Ling Xiuzhen gave a report on ward management experience to the whole hospital in Concord Auditorium.

Dong:"Everyone is in charge of everything, and everyone is in charge of something" is a particularly good idea, which is why the neurological ward has been rated as an advanced group for many years, right?

Ling: Work depends on everyone’s efforts to do it together, so everyone is happy to have achievements. Although things in the ward are trivial, everyone has the idea of being the master of their own affairs, and it is easy to manage them well if they are serious and responsible. We often check the established rules and measures. For example, at the morning meeting, everyone has a piece of paper and a pen, so I ask, where is the laundry bag? Where is the treatment tray? What should be in the first aid tray? Like an exam. In addition, there are good people and deeds that I also focus on promoting at the morning meeting. Mobilizing the masses and doing things is also training the masses, which is one of my gains. Our ward has produced five head nurses.

We emphasize not to get together in the office, encourage all nurses in the ward to patrol and observe the patient’s condition, and also find many patients’ condition changes in the process. A nurse found that a patient had a bad complexion, poor breathing, rapid pulse and unequal pupils during her patrol, and she was particularly anxious. She quickly said to her colleagues passing by, "You should prepare 20% mannitol as soon as possible and pull the rescue vehicle, and I will tell the doctor!" When the doctor came, the rescue vehicle was in place, and the infusion was given immediately, and the patient’s pupil slowly recovered. Later, neurosurgery consultation was invited, and after the operation, the patient recovered and was discharged. Without solid professional knowledge, the patient could not be found and rescued in time.

In addition to improving nurses’ knowledge of diseases in clinical practice, we also organize training, such as asking senior nurses to tell young or unfamiliar nurses about some nursing technical operations; Some professional knowledge, we ask a specialist doctor to talk about it, and everyone has improved through learning. The medical staff in the first ward on the eighth floor are very United and the working atmosphere is harmonious, so everyone is not bitter or tired when working.

Dong:Are there any patients who impressed you particularly during your work in the neurology ward?

Ling: There was a 21-year-old boy, Xiaoliang, who I remember very clearly. He was a patient with Guillain-Barre syndrome, with quadriplegia, respiratory muscle paralysis and lobar pneumonia. He went to the ward for immediate rescue and entered the iron lung [10]. He can’t breathe by himself, and he relies entirely on iron lungs to press him to breathe, and he sucks oxygen. Despite the shortage of manpower, we took out three classes of people to do intensive care, sucked sputum for him under protection and isolation, and observed the amount and color of sputum. His body can’t move, so we scrub and move his limbs. He can’t speak, but he is conscious and has an expression on his face, so we will write and communicate with him. Write "Your leg hurts, doesn’t it?" Show him. As soon as he closes his eyes, we will know that he is right. Once, I wrote several wrong words, but I accidentally touched his nose. He smiled, so we wrote "Is it a nose?" He closed his eyes and it turned out that his nose was itchy.

He can’t leave oxygen for a moment. Once, Comrade Lao Sun knew that the oxygen in the hospital was running out. On his way to work, he ran back to tell the comrades in the ward: "Our hospital’s oxygen truck is back, so you should change it quickly!" On another occasion, the iron lung could not support Xiaoliang’s breathing, and the Haiyan ventilator needed to be replaced. The Union Medical College Hospital didn’t have it, so it was necessary to borrow it from the 301 hospital. Comrade Lao Wang forgot to eat and immediately borrowed the machine. However, it takes several hours to borrow the machine. During this period, Xiaoliang’s breathing is not stable. We quickly made a careful nursing plan. Before the ventilator was borrowed, we organized nurses to maintain his breathing with artificial balloons without interruption, in order to gain valuable time for treatment. You see, everyone is working hard for a patient. How lovely these actions are.

Xiaoliang was treated in neurology for 318 days, including 4 months and 22 days of intensive care, 71 days of artificial respirator, more than 200 barrels of oxygen and more than 120 infusions. With the joint efforts of many departments, through the treatment of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine and the close cooperation of medical care, Xiaoliang finally recovered and was discharged. Everyone was overjoyed to see the patient cured and discharged from hospital.

Dong:Do you regard the ward as another home?

Ling: It’s not another home. I wish it were a main home. I think the work in the ward is the main thing, and a lot of work is also taken home. When children are young, they don’t have time to take them to the park to play. As for my half, he is also quite supportive, because he works in the Chinese History Museum and has time to go to and from work, which is not necessarily the case here. What’s more, the neighbors are also good. They help look after the children, so they also worry.

My family told me that you have no home. I said, isn’t my ward home? Ha ha. This ward is a home. It’s a pleasure to do it well. The patient is grateful to you and the doctor is happy. I didn’t do enough work all my life. After retiring in 1986, Corey kept me, and I was willing to stay in the clinic for another four years.

On-duty clinic to help patients with heart

Dong:What are the differences in nursing work from ward to clinic?

Ling: The job content is really different. Although they are all neurological diseases, the patients in the ward usually lie still there, while the patients in the outpatient department are mobile. They leave as soon as they come today, which is different in nature and different in work focus. When I was in the outpatient department, I also stressed the need to observe patients more.

For example, I once met an old lady holding a boy and sitting in a chair in the waiting room crying without talking. I asked her why she was crying, and she said that they were from other places, and the doctor didn’t prescribe medicine for the child, so she called them back for treatment. The local hospital diagnosed encephalitis sequela, and there are not many treatments in neurology. We advised her not to feel bad, and found an old doctor to see her. It was also this diagnosis that gave the child some nutritional medicine, and the old lady went back with confidence. If we hadn’t observed and found the old lady’s problem, it wouldn’t have been solved. How uncomfortable she was with her child in her arms, and so was her family when she went back to her home. Everyone who gave them that piece said that they were not satisfied with the Union Medical College Hospital. If this is solved, she will be calm and there will be no problem.

▲ Ling Xiuzhen is at the neurological service desk.

Another time, I saw a gay man yelling there, and the little girl next to him was crying, so I went over and asked what was going on. The gay man said that the doctor would give the child an EEG examination, but the child had lice on his head and had to get a haircut first. The girl was seven or eight years old. She wore two pigtails and didn’t want to get a haircut. As soon as she said it, she began to cry. I took them to Dongdan to find a barber shop and asked them to give the girl a haircut with a curtain. The girl looked in the mirror and was very happy. When she came back, she had her EEG done. They are Mongolians, and they don’t speak Mandarin very well. They keep saying thank you to us. Outpatient service is basically this kind of thing, that is, more care and observation are needed to help patients solve problems in time.

It seems quite simple to work in the outpatient department, but sometimes there are many problems, involving many aspects, such as patients from other places, ethnic minorities, farmers, overseas Chinese, etc. We should all think about what the party’s policies are for different groups and implement them.

Dong:I heard that you also carry out health education for patients, mainly through what forms? What effect has it achieved?

Ling: We also think it is very important to educate patients. At that time, it was mainly through oral preaching, blackboard newspaper, small cards and other forms. In addition to disease knowledge, there are also common sense science such as preventing gas poisoning. Some patients read it and said, I have to go back and clean up the stove at home.

Besides listening and watching, there are also thoughts. We guide patients to think carefully about when they got sick, whether they saw a doctor, what treatments they had, what the treatment effect was, and what the situation is now … So when they see the doctor, they will be comprehensive and the doctor can better understand the condition.

We do this propaganda, everyone is quiet, and the order of seeing a doctor is better. Later, the hospital encouraged us and awarded us a tape recorder, so we recorded well and told stories related to people’s health and life, which everyone loved to hear.

Dong:You have done a lot for patients. Have any patients done anything that moved you?

Ling: A female middle school teacher from Taipusi Banner, Inner Mongolia came to see a doctor and did many tests, but the results haven’t come out yet. She told us that she couldn’t wait any longer because the school was about to start and she couldn’t delay the students’ class. I say you go first, and we’ll concentrate these test results on the doctor and write a diagnosis for you after reading them. Later, I sent her the examination and diagnosis results, which solved her problem. She was so moved that she wrote a thank-you letter and sent a big bag of soybeans. We have "three disciplines and eight points for attention" [11], and we don’t take the needle and thread from the masses, so we sent the soybeans back to her.

Some brought us potatoes and wrote letters of commendation, and some suggested that we print out popular science materials and sell them to everyone as a bonus for nurses … People still have to get along with each other in good faith. From the interests of patients, you did the right thing, and everyone will support you. On this correct basis, we will unite and work together, and gradually it will get better and better.

Be indifferent to fame and fortune and walk with love

Dong:How is your life arranged after retirement?

Ling: My life is quite dull. I went abroad to stay with my daughter for two years after retirement. When I came back, I thought it was not a problem to just stay here, so I ordered a lot of newspapers and magazines. Some articles were quite good, so I cut them out and pasted them into a book. I sorted out ten boxes of state affairs, heroes, health knowledge, flowers and birds, Chinese paintings … I wanted to wait for the children to come back and show them how many great events have taken place in the country. This is an education for them, and this is the most content of my life. In addition, I also learn health knowledge from the Internet. I insist on walking for 30 minutes every day in the corridor outside the door. It was very difficult at first, but it became natural after a long time. I haven’t thought about how to live a long life, and I don’t think I’m old now. I don’t feel that way.

Dong:What do you think of the profession of nurse, from the dream of being a nurse to the life of nursing?

Ling: I chose this profession and still love it. Nurses are an indispensable and important part of medical treatment. I don’t have much knowledge and technology, and that’s all I can do, so I’ll do it well and contribute my strength to this. I’m glad to help others a little.

Dong:During the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, you won the third-class merit. In 1981, you were named as a model worker in Beijing, and in 1983, you won the national March 8th Red Flag Bearer, and you were the first national March 8th Red Flag Bearer in Peking Union Medical College Hospital. After several decades, what do you think of these awards?

Ling: I don’t think it’s anything. I don’t think all these praises seem like a thing. When the prize is awarded, this meaning will pass.

Dong:What is the most fulfilling thing for you?

In response to the hospital’s call to clean up the ward, after half a year’s work, I was able to report to the whole hospital as a typical example. Although it was a small achievement, it was the result of the joint efforts of comrades, who forged a deep friendship in the process. Up to now, they still miss me. I think this is an achievement. I hope I can pass on the story of the eighth floor and inspire young people to do a good job.

Dong:What messages and instructions do you have for young people?

Ling: For young comrades, I hope that one should listen to the Party’s words, and the other should be strict with oneself, work hard and strictly abide by various rules and regulations. Without rules, Fiona Fang cannot be established. At the same time, we should innovate, strive to be a nurse who has both ability and political integrity and serves patients wholeheartedly, be the vanguard of the nursing field in China, and win glory in the world.

Concord has trained many medical and nursing talents. Concord’s work is very rigorous and strives for perfection, and it has treated countless difficult and serious patients, which is a great contribution. I hope that in the future, we will continue to protect people’s health, walk with love and create greater glories.
