　　The new crown pneumonia epidemic is still spreading globally.

The key to defeating the epidemic depends on technology.

But how to dance the "sharp sword" of technology?

During the National Two Sessions this year, the representatives gave their opinions.

　Let the vaccine build a barrier

　　China's new crown vaccine research and development is in the first echelon internationally.

The adenovirus vector vaccine developed by Chen Wei, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and a researcher of the Academy of Military Medical Research of the Academy of Military Sciences, has been conditionally approved for marketing by the China National Medical Products Administration.

Now, she is leading a team with the National Nanoscience Center team to develop new vaccine nanocarriers.

　　Zhao Yuliang, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and director of the National Nanoscience Center, described a "nano carrier" as a vehicle with navigation and capable of delivering drugs to designated locations.

He said that in this way, the efficiency of the drug can be improved and the side effects can be reduced.

　　At present, China has conditionally approved the listing of four new crown vaccines.

Gao Fu, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and director of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, told reporters that it is preliminary estimated that vaccine production capacity can keep up with demand.

For a long-term plan, he suggested "establishing a national vaccine research center."

　　People are also required to have technology "escort" for vaccination.

Zhou Yunjie, a representative of the National People's Congress and president of Haier Group, is concerned about the standardized construction of the vaccine supply chain system. He suggested that digital and fine management of vaccine distribution, transportation, and vaccination should be carried out.

　Promote social reshaping after the epidemic

　　Digital payment, telecommuting, telemedicine, face recognition, immersive experience...Under the epidemic, these technologies have become hot due to social barriers.

Will the new technologies triggered by the epidemic be "short-lived"?

The deputies and committee members expect that technology can be used to truly reshape society.

　　Ding Lei, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and CEO of NetEase, suggested that digital cultural tourism should be built as a new growth point for the internal circulation after the epidemic, and a batch of "immersive tourism" model projects should be created to promote the transformation and upgrading of the cultural tourism industry.

　　Liu Qingfeng, a representative of the National People's Congress and chairman of iFlytek, suggested using artificial intelligence to promote balanced education and teach students in accordance with their aptitude.

　　"Using artificial intelligence technology to integrate high-quality English teaching resources at home and abroad, to solve the problem of the shortage of rural English teachers." Yu Minhong, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and chairman of the New Oriental Education Technology Group, said that this will better eliminate differences in regional teaching resources and teaching levels.

　Need to eliminate negative effects

　　It is undeniable that technology is also a "double-edged sword."

Faced with issues such as information leakage and excessive epidemic prevention, the representative committee focused on how to eliminate the negative impact.

　　Facing the "digital divide" of the "silver-haired people", many representatives from the Internet industry hope to promote the "ageing of old age" smart devices.

Lei Jun, a representative of the National People's Congress and founder of Xiaomi Group, suggested that the general requirements and standard system for the ageing standards of smart technology should be formulated.

Li Yanhong, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and Baidu's chairman and chief executive officer, suggested that artificial intelligence assistants that use voice as the core and combined with multi-mode interaction such as eye contact and gestures should be fully popularized, and "carry them into devices commonly used by the elderly."

　　During the epidemic, the use of the Internet to commit fraud, manufacture and sell counterfeit products, spread rumors and spread rumors has become the "severe disaster area" of cybercrime.

The key to the root cause is to protect information security.

　　In the joint proposal of six members including Cai Xiaohong, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and a researcher of the Institute of Modern Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, there is "improving the relevant systems and regulations for face recognition supervision, and speeding up the formulation of laws and regulations for personal information protection" and "accelerating the promotion of big data related legislation. , To clarify the company’s rights and obligations for the collection, transmission, storage and use of personal image data" and other content.

　　It is not difficult to see that the epidemic has triggered people's thinking about science and technology.

Adhering to the people-oriented principle and giving more social responsibilities to science and technology is the key to good "sharp swords".
