“Last March, I flew to Hanoi for work. Before that, I made a medical declaration on the web, but forgot to take a photo. I thought the data would be on the Bluezone app because this app also has a declaration section. , when I went to the airport to open the app, I knew I had to make a medical declaration from the beginning, which took time,” shared Ngoc Mai, an office worker living in Ho Chi Minh City. “On the last election day, I still had to make a medical declaration when I went to the place. I don’t understand why they didn’t let me scan the QR code that I just declared a few days ago,” said Ngoc Phuong, living in Ba Dinh district, Hanoi. said.

Share with Zing , a representative of the Department of Informatization, under the Ministry of Information and Communications affirmed that the database of applications is now interconnected, helping to increase the efficiency of the applications and reduce the cumbersome for people. Why does the application need data communication? Mr. Do Lap Hien, Deputy Director of the Center for E-Government, under the Department of Informatization, explained the inconvenience when applications use independent and unconnected data. “In the past, there were cases where people declared their health on the NCOVI app, then downloaded more Bluezone to protect themselves. When going to a quarantine point, opening the health declaration function on Bluezone, there is no previously declared data. This is really inconvenient. In the opposite direction, the trace group when accessing the information of the Bluezone app, the data in the app is just the phone’s code. They have to find the corresponding information in the NCOVI or VHD database to know who and where the close contact is. This process will reduce the tracking speed,” said Mr. Hien. Anti-epidemic applications all have medical declaration functions. Data warehouse interoperability ensures this functionality works across applications. Photo: Tuan Anh. During the National Online Conference on the situation and urgent solutions to prevent and control the Covid-19 epidemic on the morning of May 29, Minister of Information and Communications Nguyen Manh Hung said that the current anti-epidemic applications have used a unified data warehouse. . “Once synchronized, only one operation can access all information on the applications, more effective in fighting the epidemic,” Mr. Hien shared. Centrally connected IT applications, linked data. This is an important development step in the application of technology and data. Minister of Information and Communications Nguyen Manh Hung According to the representative of the Center, when updating to the latest version, the applications will use the linked data. This is to ensure that the people’s experience is seamless and unaffected. The latest version of Bluezone will be updated on the iOS and Android app stores this week. “For citizens and users, all changes must be ‘transparent’ to them. The application must not change anything about the user experience, only more convenient, “said Mr. Hien. App data will delete itself after a month Despite being propagated about anti-epidemic applications, many users said they encountered difficulties and inconveniences when using. For example, with the Bluezone application, having to constantly turn on the Bluetooth connection makes users worry about consuming the smartphone’s battery. “I installed Bluezone since last year, but sometimes it bothers me because there are too many notifications. Also, I don’t know if the app is effective because now I don’t see the number of people exposed to almost the same amount of time,” Anh Hoang said. , working in Hanoi shared. In addition, the information that people who do not install Bluezone may be fined is also confusing. Reply Zing , a representative of the Information Technology Department, Ministry of Health said that the fine or not will depend on local regulations. Bluezone application supports the process of tracing, close contact.

If it is in a personal space, at home or in a place where there are not many people, it is not necessary. The sanction will depend on the risk or development of the epidemic in the locality. Thus, depending on the local situation, the sanction will be assigned to the People’s Committees of the provinces and cities for their own consideration and decision”, said Mr. Nguyen Truong Nam, Deputy Director of the Information Technology Department, Ministry of Industry and Trade. Health said. Personal data will be deleted after one month of storage so that people can rest assured to comply. Minister of Information and Communications Nguyen Manh Hung In addition, there are also concerns about the security of people’s personal information. Sharing about this issue, a representative of the Center for E-Government said that current data according to regulations will be deleted after 30 days. This number may change depending on the development of the disease and the requirements of the Ministry of Health. “Currently reserved data will be deleted after one month. When deleted, it will be completely deleted and cannot be retrieved, in order to ensure the privacy of users, “said Mr. Hien. Due to anti-epidemic requirements, many units and objects can access anti-epidemic data. However, depending on the scope and needs, these objects will have limited access. Not everyone can access the user’s data and information. In addition, according to the Minister of Information and Communications, wearable isolation monitoring devices will be deployed from June 1, immediately for workers in industrial parks. This bracelet is part of a seamless system, data will also be shared with other applications to ensure isolation. “Currently, the new bracelet solution is being tested at the request of the Ministry of Health. Regardless of the technology application, we will ensure that the data is attached to the application, which is part of the system.” representative of the Center for E-Government said.

Some factors many families do not pay attention to but are the culprits that make people feel stressed and uncomfortable. For example, the living room does not have enough light or there are too many technology equipment in a small space, many plugs, wires are not designed to cover carefully. According to American psychotherapist Weena Cullins, some common mistakes many families make when designing a living room increase stress: Interior and living room design bright colors It is undeniable that the living room is designed with a very beautiful light color tone. However, Weena Cullins thinks that turning the family living room into a ‘gallery room’ with the main bright white tones can make people stress. Weena Cullins said: “The owner of the bright white living room will always want to keep everything clean and always find a way to maintain it. “. Lack of natural light Living in a space with insufficient light makes everyone mentally feel depressed and sad. Moreover, a room with insufficient light is definitely not good for eye health. Of course homeowners can use artificial lighting, but this can affect sleep. Indoors, Weena Cullins recommends using neutral tones, with sunlight shining in. Take advantage of natural light in the living space to get fresh air whenever. Too many sound devices in the living room Noise is one of the most common stressors. Noise comes from many different media such as televisions, music players, radio … “Not all noise causes discomfort, but I want people to be more concerned with quality than quantity,” Weena Cullins said. TV screen too close, too much Overexposure to televisions, electronic screens can make people easily stressful, especially looking at close range or in a small, limited space. The living room is cluttered A cluttered space cannot make the person living in it relax, even increase the tension. The most common problem is messy wires. Each electronic device in the living room comes with tangled wires, this is uncomfortable for many people. So you need to arrange, arrange the location to hide them reasonably. Freeing up space is how you rest your mind. Old furniture, sofa Looking at old furniture, outdated decorations, and discolored sofas makes people feel uncomfortable and uncomfortable. The thing to do is to try to replace or find new ways to make it more eye-catching. Surely looking at the pile of old, dirty things in the home space cannot make you feel fresh.
