People get vaccinated against COVID-19. Photo: AFP/VNA In Singapore, technology has really been “powering” to increase the efficiency of vaccine use. Behind every immunization center in Singapore is a vast virtual infrastructure that can capture and categorize each COVID-19 vaccine shot to make the vaccination campaign as effective as possible. Singapore has built integrated solutions to collect and handle data disparities. The system is also flexible to adapt to new cases should Singapore change its COVID-19 vaccination strategy. One of the solutions that Singapore is applying is the development of error detection software. These software can detect errors when people misrepresent personal information during vaccination scheduling before this information is entered into the database and need human correction. Since Singapore launched its COVID-19 vaccination program at an early stage in January, the Integrated Health Information System of Singapore (IHiS) has processed between 4,000 and 5,000 vaccination data per day. . At that time, there were about 200 false declarations every day and all of these errors had to be corrected manually. However, thanks to the software’s continuous improvement, now the number of cases to be corrected is reduced to just 20 per day, while IHiS’s system processes up to 50,000 records per day. In Denmark, technology is used to attract and encourage people to get vaccinated. Researchers from the University of Copenhagen in Denmark are testing a game with virtual reality technology to educate people about the benefits of vaccination. Users will wear virtual reality glasses, playing the role of an elderly person trying to walk through a crowded square. In this game, the people in the red shirt are infected with COVID-19, while the blue shirts are people who have been vaccinated. Professor Robert Bohm of the University of Copenhagen said that after players experience the virtual reality game for themselves, their intention to vaccinate will be even more motivated. In the United States, several cities and counties in the country, including Los Angeles, Philadelphia, New Orleans and Newark, are using advanced psychoanalytic technology to help build and expand vaccination programs. These cities have partnered with the company Zencity and the Ash Center of Harvard University’s Kennedy School to study people’s psychology when vaccinating. Through this program, US localities will use Zencity’s tools to collect and analyze citizen feedback from available sources, such as social media posts, online channels, and online channels. local news site. The tool then uses artificial intelligence (AI) to classify and sort the data based on topics, trends, anomalies, and people’s perceptions. Cities will receive a report from Zencity, which includes different demographics about vaccines as well as public sentiment towards the vaccination program. In addition, the report also displays misinformation that may need to be addressed and recommendations on how to communicate the vaccine. This tool is highly appreciated by cities in the US. Deana Gamble, head of communications for the city of Philadelphia, said that thanks to the app, the city government understands that it needs to provide accurate and up-to-date information to those who are still uncertain about the benefits of using the app. vaccinations and how to administer them. Not only does it help speed up vaccination progress, but technology also makes access to a COVID-19 vaccine more equitable for many groups. In Italy, the Lombardy regional government has approved the application of an algorithm developed by scientists to decide who should be given priority to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. A team of scientists from the University of Bicocca in the city of Milan has developed an algorithm that aims to end the controversy over which groups should be given priority to get the COVID-19 vaccine. The researchers divided the patients worst affected by COVID-19 into groups based on age, epidemiological history and many other factors. In addition, a team of experts from the University of Bicocca has also identified 34 conditions and diseases that may increase the risk of contracting COVID-19, including diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, anemia and other diseases. blood cancer. “We believe that by vaccinating those most at risk, we can avoid hundreds of intubation and deaths in Lombardy and beyond,” said Professor Giovanni Corrao of the University of Bicocca. all of Italy”. Currently, the Italian Ministry of Health is also considering recommendations for the use of this technology nationwide. If vaccines are considered a powerful weapon for humans against the SARS-CoV-2 virus, the above specific examples show that technology, in many different forms, can increase the strength and effectiveness of the virus. this weapon, thereby helping people soon “reach the target” of herd immunity.

The main goal of the architecture firm was to create a building with a pleasant space and lots of vegetation. The architects designed a central garden inside the 2,300 square meter building with a winding path leading to the outside space. All apartments have natural light and ventilation throughout. The building has 14 units, of which four are apartments on the ground floor. The remaining units are three-storey townhouses occupying the upper part of the complex. Each apartment has its own outdoor space, be it a balcony, courtyard or roof garden. On the upper floors, lush potted greenery adds to the building’s garden atmosphere. The exterior walls are clad with textured galarza stone, a material that can be found at other buildings in the vicinity. The gable roof gives the building a distinct look. On the ground floor, an area is carved to form a doorway with a white porcelain staircase leading to the commercial space. Another threshold leads to the apartment building’s foyer and also leads to an underground garage. The interior facades around the central courtyard have different architectural languages ​​with different windows, openings and gable roofs, aiming to create a simple, dynamic and ingenious form. The outdoor space – home to low-maintenance native plants – is intended to provide residents with a place of relaxation and reflection. Balconies are arranged around the courtyard to promote interaction among the residents. In addition to the courtyard, some rooms have access to a terrace. These upstairs patios are bordered by pink walls. The apartments have glass doors to let in daylight and connect to the outside space. Interiors include gray porcelain tile floors, tzalam cabinets and black granite countertops. The materials are chosen to adapt to the humidity in the city and retain their durability and aesthetics over time. See more photos of this impressive project:

The “village” is like a symphony of colors under the sunlight in a peaceful setting. In 1979, after receiving a postcard from his daughter with a picture of a glass castle – an attraction on Vancouver Island in the province of British Columbia (Canada), Edouard T.Arsenault was inspired to build the park. Present your own glass bottles. In the summer of that year, he began collecting bottles from the surrounding area, mainly from local restaurants, friends, relatives and neighbors. He then spent the winter in his basement cleaning bottles, removing labels, and brooding about the project. In the spring of 1980, at the age of 66, he began work on the project on the grounds of his house on Prince Edward Island. More than 12,000 recycled glass bottles are cleverly linked together to form a 6-gable house measuring 4x6m. The house opened to visitors in 1981. Impressed with the unique architecture, visitors urged Mr. Arsenault to build more buildings out of glass bottles. By 1983, he had completed a tavern made of 8,000 glass bottles and a prayer hall made of 10,000 glass bottles. The “village” made up of about 30,000 recycled glass bottles of various colors and sizes and surrounded by beautiful flower gardens has become a paradise for photographers, nature and soul lovers. with recycling projects. After Mr. Arsenault’s death, this wonderful work continued to be maintained by his family. Some pictures of the unique “village” made from glass bottles by Mr. Edouard T.Arsenault: Inspired by his daughter’s postcard, Edouard T.Arsenault built his own glass bottle architecture. All bottles must be cleaned and labels removed before construction work can begin. About 30,000 recycled glass bottles were used. In 1983, Arsenault completed his own pub. The “village” made of thousands of recycled glass bottles has become a tourist attraction.

Located in Yen village (Thach Xa commune, Thach That, Hanoi city), Khum bridge is a hundred years old, an ancient tile bridge with unique and rare architecture. This is a bridge made in the style of Thuong Gia Ha Kieu, which means the top is the house and the bottom is the bridge.

The people in the village do not know exactly how old the bridge is, even the oldest people in the village were born to see this bridge. Khum bridge spans the stream of water flowing from Huong Ngai, Canh Nau, and Bui field to Tich river. In the past, the only path to Yen village had to cross the Khum bridge and the bridge acted as the village gate. All activities of production, daily life and communication of the villagers all pass through this bridge. The bridge was repaired in year 1935, in which the lower part was completely redone. In 1948, French invaders swept over, burned bridges, villagers came to extinguish fire to cure, the remaining dark gray burns are up to now. The entire front part of the bridge. Above the gable, there are concave boxes, thread edges, flowers and leaves, zucchini, lantern pillars, very sophisticated artifacts. The bridge roof is covered with funny nose tiles. The entire wall is made of ancient laterite, the rest of the truss system and rafters are made of solid wood, under the upper house there are 3 sluice gates which are swept with laterite, hewn orange, very strong. In the low water season, the middle drain is nearly 3m wide so small boats can pass. The Thuong Gia section is over 12m long, divided into 5 compartments, 2 of which are made of quartet wood, with 2 rows of pillars, 2 rows of pillars. The middle part is higher and lower to the 2 gable heads, creating a characteristic “cambered” shape for the project. Bridge frame structure is made of trusses throughout, with a bridge connecting the two trusses, the armpit beams connecting the female column with the child column, no screws, following the traditional construction style of the Vietnamese. Khum bridge structure. And the two sides of the nave were rebuilt to serve as a worshiping committee of Quan Than Linh, Than Kim Quy, and Than Dai Eagle. The three sides are left empty to make wooden stalls, which is the resting place of the villagers. Old man Nguyen Van Toai – 70 years old, the keeper of this bridge said that, in the last few decades, when the roads were built, the Khum bridge did not have much transport value but was still an important spiritual place. of the local people. People around the area still regularly come to the bridge to burn incense to pray for good things, especially on holidays and the full moon. Both a bridge and a place of worship, Khum Bridge makes many people think of the famous Japanese Covered Bridge of Hoi An ancient town.
