Photo: AFP/VNA Ms. Mami Mizutori, the UN Secretary-General’s special representative for disaster risk reduction, said that drought risks becoming the next great disaster and there is no cure. A United Nations report released on June 17 found that drought caused at least $124 billion in economic losses and affected more than 1.5 billion people between 1998 and 2017. United Nations, now that global warming has increased droughts in Southern Europe and West Africa and the number of victims will “increase significantly” unless the world acts, Ms. Mizutori said. Some 130 countries could face a major drought risk this century under the UN high-emissions scenario, another 23 would face water shortages because of population growth, and 38 countries are affected by both factors. Ms. Mizutori likens drought to a virus – which tends to be long-lasting, has a wide geographic range and causes severe damage. Countries are not affected by drought but are still affected indirectly through food insecurity and rising food prices.” The United Nations forecasts that droughts will be more frequent and severe in most of Africa, Central and South America, Central Asia, South Australia, Southern Europe, Mexico and the United States. More than 40% of European Union (EU) agricultural imports could be “vulnerable” to drought by mid-century due to climate change, according to a study published in Nature Communications in the journal Nature Communications. this week.

SecuriAlert will send a notification to the vehicle owner’s smartphone if there is abnormal boarding activity Ford will warn you when using your smartphone if your car is stolen. Despite containment, vehicle crime remains a problem, and is even increasing in some countries. In cities where cars are parked on the street overnight, car owners don’t hear the alarm at all, or hear their car start up and drive away. Ford recognizes this problem and is testing an enhanced security system that connects to smartphones it calls SecuriAlert. Once activated, SecuriAlert will send a notification to the vehicle owner’s smartphone if it detects any vehicle activity, including door opening or key start, providing peace of mind. to vehicle owners when their vehicle is out of sight. SecuriAlert will work in tandem with FordPass, an app that connects car operating systems to smartphones, which is currently unavailable in some Asian markets. However, vehicles equipped with the latest versions of the SYNC 3 system come pre-installed with Ford Pass, meaning the technology is already on board, just waiting to connect to SecuriAlert. The FordPass app, through SecuriAlert, will reveal the time and cause for any alerts, as well as the vehicle’s last location. If someone tries to open the car door with the key, SecuriAlert will still send an alert. This can be especially helpful in identifying someone who wants to get into a car with a copied or stolen key. When owners return to their vehicle – to drive to work in the morning, they simply dismiss the SecuriAlert alert via the FordPass app and continue their journey.

Preparing to test Covid-19 isolation monitoring bracelet The first type is the Bluezone smart bracelet, manufactured by a Vietnamese enterprise. The expected price is 6 USD / unit, equivalent to about 138,000 VND. The bracelet uses Bluezone open source core, 30-day battery, and is used in cases where smartphones are not used like in factories, used for the elderly … to support monitoring, medical declaration… The second type is a GPS navigation bracelet to help manage in the isolation area, priced at 35 USD/piece (equivalent to 800,000 VND). This bracelet will identify the wearer’s location, have a warning to destroy or remove the bracelet; 30 days battery, can be charged repeatedly and reused. The bracelet has a warning sent to the quarantined person, the medical officer in charge when leaving the allowed range or violating the predetermined route. Previously, to comply with the request of the National Steering Committee for the Prevention and Control of the Covid-19 epidemic to complete the application to manage entry people from the time of entry, at the isolation area and to monitor their health after the end. On May 8, the Ministry of Information and Communications proposed to apply a specialized bracelet to support the monitoring of people in concentrated isolation and after centralized isolation developed by Vietnamese technology enterprises. According to the Ministry of Information and Communications, some countries have exported solutions to monitor quarantined subjects, but the use of available foreign solutions will lead to many limitations in mastering and customizing to suit the Vietnamese context. Male. The purchase of foreign solutions is also dependent on the production capacity of the partner, which can significantly affect the Covid-19 prevention and control plan. Meanwhile, Vietnamese enterprises now also have solutions (mastering technology and data stored in Vietnam) and sufficient production capacity, ready to deploy on a large scale in a short time. The quarantine bracelet can open up a new management direction for low-risk quarantined people, who will be fitted with a bracelet to monitor their self-isolation at home. This approach helps to reduce the risk of cross-contamination in the isolation area, and at the same time reduces the social burden, especially the epidemic prevention and control team. Besides this bracelet, a number of other technological solutions have been deployed by the National Center for Technology for Covid-19 Prevention and Control to manage isolation, manage vaccinations and certify electronic vaccines… the fight against the Covid-19 epidemic.

Eyes and lips are particularly sensitive and vulnerable areas when exposed to PFAS chemicals. Photo: CNN Susan Collins said: “The American people have a right to know that the products they are applying to their hair or skin are safe? PFAS substances are a class of man-made chemicals, including PFOA, PFOS and GenX that have can accumulate in the body over time and have been linked to cancers, such as thyroid, liver damage, reduced fertility, and hormone disruption. Accordingly, out of 231 beauty products sold in the US and Canada, the highest PFAS index was found in foundation (63%), waterproof mascara (82%) and lipstick. anti-drift lips (62%). The study was published yesterday (June 15) in the journal Environmental Science & Technology Letters. In addition, the study said, about 88% of the products sampled for testing did not declare any ingredients on the label, despite this being a mandatory requirement of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). FDA). David Andrews, senior scientist with Environmental Action for Consumers, said: “I was a bit shocked and hopefully this will be a wake-up call to the cosmetic industry about the extent of PFAS abuse. spreading across all kinds of makeup products.” The bill was introduced to the Senate Tuesday by Republican Senator Susan Collins of Maine, Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut and Representative Debbie Dingell, Democrat of Michigan. In a letter to CNN Health, Ms Dingell said: “These chemicals are in the products we use every day and most people don’t even know the dangers they face. daily”. If approved into law, Congress will require the FDA to issue a regulation banning the intentional addition of PFAS in cosmetics for 270 days, before the final regulation is enacted within 90 days. More than three-quarters of waterproof mascaras, nearly two-thirds of liquid foundation and lipsticks, and more than half, says study author Graham Peaslee, professor of physics, chemistry and biochemistry at the University of Notre Dame. eye and lip makeup products with a high concentration of fluorine. In addition, of the 29 products above contained at least four PFAS chemicals of concern. However, the most disturbing finding, according to Professor Peaslee, was that 28 of the 29 products containing the apparently toxic PFAS chemicals found did not declare the chemical ingredients on the label. “Although I often advise my patients to avoid products that are harmful,” says Dr. Whitney Bowe, clinical associate professor of dermatology at the Icahn School (Mount Sinai Medical Center) who was not involved in the study. contain perfluor or polyfluor, but this new study worries me because many products are contaminated with toxic compounds containing PFAS – commonly used near and around the eyes and lips, even if they are not listed on the label. “That is a real danger because PFAS chemicals can easily be absorbed through the delicate cells, right near the capillaries. In addition, women often lick their lips and they accidentally ingest the ingredients in this lipstick…”, Ms. Bowe warned. Now the Care Products Council, a 600-member trade association representing more than 90% of the beauty industry in the US, says “we are awaiting internal scientific review” before commenting. official commentary. CNN also reached out to the Canadian Cosmetics Coalition but received no response. What is PFAS? PFAS chemicals are made up of a linked chain of carbon and fluorine atoms, which do not break down in the environment. It is used in a wide variety of products such as non-stick cookware, infection-resistant surgical gowns and drapes, mobile phones, semiconductors, commercial aircraft and low-emission vehicles. Synthetic chemicals used in health-related items have doubled in the past 5 years in the US. Photo: CNN PFAS chemicals are also used to make carpets, clothing, furniture and food packaging resistant to stains, water and grease. Foods that are high in fat – like burgers, fries – are prime candidates for wrapping paper made with PFAS. While two of the most common PFASs – 8-carbon chain perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) – were now phased out of consumer products in the US in the early 2000s, now the consumer industry is created many new versions, with more than 4,700 types of PFAS as of 2018. Newer PFAS chemicals are manufactured with four or six carbon chains, experts say, but they appear to have more hazardous health effects than older versions, leaving consumers and the environment at risk, experts say. still at risk. Microbiologist Linda Birnbaum, former director of the Institute of Environmental Health Sciences and the National Toxicology Program, told CNN: “Manufacturers look to shorter-chain carbons. They weren’t really required to be fully tested for safety before anything was put on the market.” According to a 2015 report by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, PFAS chemicals are considered “permanent” chemicals because they do not break down in the environment, and concentrations of PFAS are so widespread that they have been detected. present in the blood of 97% of Americans.

Digitalization empowers food safety risk management and control. Since 2020, Nanhai District has been continuously optimizing and accelerating the layout. The construction of the food safety risk detection and early warning system has progressed as scheduled, and the detection data has been uploaded and monitored in real time.

Since the launch of the food safety risk detection and early warning system on September 23, 2020, as of March 28, 2021, a total of 450,694 batches of rapid inspection data have been generated and collected, of which 4834 batches of positive suspicious samples were detected, with a suspicious rate of 1.1 %. 19.7 tons of edible agricultural products involving positive batches have all been initiated follow-up disposal mechanisms for harmless treatment and traceability, effectively ensuring the safety of the people’s tongue.

Big data empowers to realize food safety risk management and control in advance

“Food safety” is a core topic of concern to the whole society, and governments at all levels are under “pressure”. The quality and safety of agricultural products and food still have problems such as “difficult supervision, difficult law enforcement, and disorderly competition in the market”.

Focus on Nanhai District. At present, Nanhai District invests millions of financial funds for food sampling inspection every year. A large amount of result data is obtained in daily work. If these data can be used reasonably, centralized evaluation and analysis and unified forecasting and judgment can be carried out. Realize the early warning of food safety risks, and then realize the risk management and control in advance.

Therefore, in order to enhance the effectiveness of food safety supervision, maximize supervision efficiency, optimize supervision costs, and improve the level of food safety in Nanhai District, the Nanhai District Market Supervision Administration has innovated work ideas, proposed big data development concepts, and introduced food safety risk detection in Nanhai District. The early warning system does practical things for the masses.

It is understood that the system conducts centralized evaluation, analysis and unified prediction and judgment on a large amount of random inspection data generated in daily edible agricultural products quick inspection and food supervision and random inspection, establishes a risk assessment management system, and realizes risk early warning and forecasting and pre-control functions.

Currently, the system collects about 4,000 test data every day. The data comes from the 618 edible agricultural products rapid testing points that have been established in Nanhai District, covering farmer’s markets, primary and secondary schools, government agencies, catering centers, hospitals, supermarkets, etc. The detection points are equipped with new pesticide residue detectors, and all pesticide residue fast detectors realize the direct upload of detection results and process data.

The intelligent system uses big data analysis technology to issue early warnings to companies that fail to conduct pesticide residue detection on time and in accordance with the amount, and issue risk warnings to high-risk vegetable varieties and vegetable supply companies.

It is worth mentioning that the system’s early warning and hierarchical disposal mechanism automatically pushes risk warning information to the corresponding supervisors through mobile phone WeChat, SMS and computer terminals, and supervisors activate the corresponding disposal mechanism according to the actual situation. For edible agricultural products that fail to pass the inspection at each inspection point, they shall be removed from the shelves and destroyed in strict accordance with the requirements of relevant laws and regulations. Depending on the discovery of unqualified products, it will initiate traceability joint law enforcement, promptly issue consumer warnings, and list the product or supplier as a key subject of supervision, and carry out relevant investigations to prevent risks.

Continuously optimize and upgrade to ensure the safety of the people’s tongue

Now, when you walk into all the farmer’s markets in Nanhai District, you can see that the market has a testing room. The staff will conduct a quick inspection of the agricultural products on sale in the testing room every morning.

The testing room is also equipped with a pesticide residue rapid detector, which can detect the result data of pesticide residues in just 15 minutes. The detection data has been seamlessly connected to the Nanhai District Food Safety Risk Detection and Early Warning System in real time, and the data will be uploaded to the District Data Coordination Bureau. Through in-depth analysis of food inspection data in the whole district, the regulatory authorities can intuitively understand the high and frequent risks of food safety in different regions and various fields, and formulate relevant policies in a timely manner to make supervision more targeted and efficient, thereby establishing a region The long-term food safety supervision mechanism effectively guarantees “safety on the tip of the tongue.”

Specifically, the first is to promote comprehensively around the “four bases (machines)”. That is, fund + base + institution + mechanism: one is the fund. The source of input is “district and town government + unit + enterprise”, which ensures the normal operation of the project. The second is the base, which is 1+1000, “1” is the regional bureau headquarters system, and “1000” is the construction of 1,000 inspection points. At present, there are 618 rapid inspection points in use, and the target number is 1,000 by the end of this year. The third is the organization, the establishment of district and town leadership structures and work teams, and the establishment of inspection teams, training and guidance teams, and supervision teams respectively. The fourth is the mechanism to establish a series of working mechanisms, such as the positive handling mechanism of the district and township market supervision and management system, the inspector training and education reward mechanism, and the district bureau’s supervision mechanism (verification and spot check mechanism) over the supervision offices, construction sites, and institutions. )Wait.

The second is to improve the level of data analysis. In terms of the implementation of quick inspection and quick processing, the system generates about 3,600 batches of quick inspection data for edible agricultural products every day. Since the new system was launched on September 23, 2020 to March 28, 2021, a total of 450,694 batches of quick inspection data have been generated and collected. Among them, 4834 batches of positive suspicious samples were detected, with a suspicious rate of 1.1%, and 19.7 tons of edible agricultural products involving positive batches. The follow-up disposal mechanism has been activated for harmless treatment and traceability.

In terms of building the legal inspection database, the current legal inspection data import module in the system has been tested, and the data import is in progress. For the newly generated legal inspection data, it is planned to update once a month; for the past data, it will be gradually collected from near to far in time. At the same time, the legal inspection data will be classified and summarized and the analysis module debugging and analysis will be carried out to extract high risks. Industry, high-risk product information.

Food safety affects thousands of households. In the future, Nanhai District plans to add 382 quick inspection points based on the original 618 quick inspection points for edible agricultural products. By the end of 2021, the total will increase to 1,000, covering all the agricultural markets in the district, most schools, nurseries, and institutions. Unit canteens, some key catering companies, food material distribution associations and supermarkets, etc., continue to optimize the food safety risk detection and early warning system. Through in-depth analysis of the quality detection data of edible agricultural products in the whole district, we can understand the high incidence and frequency of food safety in different regions and various fields. Where the risks are, timely formulation of relevant policies to make supervision more targeted and efficient, so as to establish a long-term monitoring mechanism for regional food safety, open up a new situation in the food safety supervision work in the South China Sea, and effectively guarantee the safety of the people’s tongue.

Rising producer prices “Hidden inflation” as a warning sign

As of: 06/09/2021 1:32 p.m.

In China, producer prices have risen faster than they have been in 13 years. In Germany, too, inflationary pressure from producers is growing. When will consumers feel this? From Angela Göpfert, tagesschau.de In China, producer prices rose by 9.0 percent in May, the strongest they have been since 2008. Anyone who thinks what is happening in China does not affect the German consumer is wrong. As far away as China may feel for some German consumers: The fresh data from China are fueling the inflation debate in this country, as they reveal a problem that Germany and the euro zone are also facing.

“Hidden inflation” also in Germany

In April, producer prices in the Federal Republic of Germany soared by 5.2 percent compared to the same month last year. That was the highest increase since August 2011, when prices rose sharply after the financial and economic crisis. The producer prices are considered to be an important leading indicator for the development of consumer prices. They usually only meet with far less media interest, which is why they are sometimes referred to as “hidden inflation”.

Energy prices as a driver of inflation

So the crucial question is: Will producer price inflation also reach consumers? So far, not much of that has been felt. In April consumer prices in Germany climbed by 2.0 percent compared to the same month last year. Around half of this increase was due to the rise in energy prices. A look at the recent past of the German economy also shows that consumer prices have mostly only increased significantly at a much slower pace when producer prices have risen similarly. The producer price inflation was therefore only to a small extent reflected in rising consumer prices.

Consumers have saved a lot of money

But this time everything could be different. The reason is a special effect of the corona pandemic, which has never come to fruition in this pronounced form: the deferred demand. “The corona pandemic inhibited private demand for months and led to a kind of compulsory saving. The savings surplus now amounts to over 150 billion euros and is likely to rise to around 200 billion euros by the end of 2021,” said LBBW economist Jens-Oliver Niklasch across from tagesschau.de . This corresponds to a potential increase in consumer demand of up to 17 percent compared to the pre-Corona year 2019.

Companies can pass on more costs

“If we open everything now, then this strong additional demand will meet an offer that has become more expensive in terms of costs. The probability is correspondingly high that the companies will be able to pass on a larger part of the costs,” says Niklasch. Michael Holstein, chief economist at DZ Bank, is convinced that “the manufacturing companies will certainly try to pass on part of their cost increase to their customers.”

Savers are actually expropriated

Against this background, LBBW economist Niklasch initially expects inflation rates to continue to rise over the remainder of the year. In the second half of the year, the VAT effect should come into its own: “Then we will probably reach inflation figures of over three percent.” This has very real consequences for consumers and savers in Germany: With interest rates of zero percent and an inflation rate of over two or even three percent, the real interest rates, i.e. the nominal interest rates minus the inflation rate, are negative. Savers who invest their money in overnight money accounts or savings books are actually expropriated. This is fueling the flight into stocks and real estate, which in turn continues to inflate the price bubbles in these markets.

Wage-price spiral not yet in sight

After all: LBBW expert Niklasch sees the rising inflation rates as a temporary phenomenon, the ingredients for a permanent increase are not there. “For inflation rates to rise over the long term, wages would have to go along with them; a wage-price spiral like the one in the 1970s would be needed. But we are not seeing that in Germany at the moment.” From January 2022, the inflation rate should quickly drop below the two percent mark.

Stress on industry harms the economy

But even if the rising producer prices were not or only slightly reflected in rising consumer prices, that would not bode well. If producers cannot pass the rising prices on to consumers, that would indicate weak consumption dynamics. That seems to be the case in China at the moment, as Commerzbank foreign exchange expert Hao Zhou points out. “As a result, there is a risk that industrial profits will shrink rapidly, which will weigh on the general economic outlook.” So regardless of whether the producers pass the rising producer prices on to the consumers or not: they are always a warning signal.

Warning: Hackers take advantage of the Covid-19 epidemic to spread malicious code. Illustration Taking advantage of the complicated development of the Covid-19 epidemic in many countries around the world and even in Vietnam, hacker groups have opened many cyberattack campaigns through fake emails with documents containing malicious code. , with titles and content related to the Covid-19 epidemic to trick users into opening documents. As noted by experts of CyRadar Information Security Joint Stock Company, the hot topic of the Covid-19 epidemic and the Covid-19 vaccine has continued to be exploited by many hacker groups in their campaigns to defraud Vietnamese users. Nam through the form of sending fake emails with attached document files containing malicious code. Specifically, two cyberattack campaigns in the form of sending fake emails with attached documents related to the Covid-19 epidemic, including “Jam Gia Dien dich Covid-19.docx” and “Covid-19– Vaccines.xlsm”. The above docx and xlsm file formats, according to experts’ analysis, have malicious code installed. When the user opens the document file, the malicious code will penetrate the computer, allowing the remote hacker to control the computer through commands. From there, hackers can also order to download many other malicious codes, steal data, passwords, screenshots… Currently, as noted by CyRadar, the number of cases where users are tricked into downloading and opening fake documents related to the Covid-19 epidemic and the Covid-19 vaccine are not many. However, in the context of a complicated epidemic and a growing remote working model, experts predict that in the coming time, there may be more hacker groups that continue to take advantage of the Covid-19 epidemic to attack scams. user island. Therefore, in addition to recommending the use of protection software, experts also recommend that organizations, businesses and users need to be careful and consider carefully when downloading email attachments.

This malicious application is called Mods Minecraft. The app doesn’t function like an ad at all, instead it turns the victim’s smartphone and tablet into an ad-player in an extremely sophisticated way. (Photo: Kaspersky) Accordingly, after the first run, the application will hide its icons from the screen and continuously open the browser to display ads. The app can also play videos from YouTube, access the Google Play app store, and more. Security experts at Kaspersky found that the app opens the browser every two minutes, rendering the device essentially inoperable. use to be. (Photo: Kaspersky) What’s especially worrisome is that it’s hard for users to know what’s going on with their devices, which apps are responsible for the trouble, and how to prevent it. The security experts at Kaspersky informed Google of their findings and the malicious app was quickly removed from the store. Minecraft is one of the best-selling games in the world with about 180 million copies worldwide. (Photo: Mojang) However, removing this app from Google’s app store does not mean the removal of all malware. In the past, developers of this type would simply upload new, slightly modified versions, using different names, from different developer accounts to further trick victims. An example can be mentioned is the VK Music Trojan. This app stole VK user accounts, but despite being reported, the app has survived on the Google Play app store for several years. (Artwork: Unsplash) Kaspersky ran a search for malicious Minecraft Mods-like apps – and found a few. In addition to the malicious application Mods Minecraft, a utility called File Recovery was also found to contain malware in version 1.1. However, that version has since been removed and version 1.1.1 of the app, available on Google Play, is safe.

US President Joe Biden. Photo: AP “He’s smart, he’s tough, and I see him as a worthy opponent,” Biden said. At the same time, President Biden said that the upcoming meeting with President Putin is important and he will ask Moscow to cooperate in areas of mutual interest if the Kremlin chooses to do the same, according to Reuters. “I want to make it clear to President Putin that there are areas where we can cooperate if he chooses to go this way. If he chooses not to cooperate and act the way he has in the past with regard to cybersecurity and certain other activities, we will respond in the same way,” Biden said. However, President Biden also said that he would make it clear to Putin where the “red lines” are. “I have shared with our allies what will convey to Putin, that I do not seek conflict with Russia but we will respond if Russia continues its harmful activities and we will not. failed to defend the transatlantic alliance. We stand for democratic values,” Biden said. In addition, the White House president also noted that “it would be a disaster” if Russian opposition figure Alexei Navalny died in prison. Specifically, according to the US leader, “Mr Navalny’s death will be another sign that Russia has little or no intention to adhere to basic human rights. It was a disaster. That does nothing but hurt Russia’s relationship with the rest of the world.” It is known that the meeting between President Biden and his counterpart Putin is scheduled to take place in Ho Chi Minh City. Geneva (Switzerland) on June 16. Both Washington and Moscow welcomed the upcoming summit as a positive step towards finding stability in the bilateral relationship.

US President Joe Biden and Russian President Vladimir Putin. Photo: RT President Joe Biden arrived in the UK on Wednesday, June 9, ahead of a meeting with Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Thursday and the start of the G7 summit on Friday. His schedule in the coming days is quite busy. From the G7 in Cornwall (UK), Mr. Biden will travel to Brussels (Belgium) to attend the NATO summit, then to Switzerland to meet his Russian counterpart on June 16. Speaking Wednesday to US forces in Suffolk (UK), Mr Biden strongly announced he would meet with President Putin to “tell him what I want him to know”. Mr Biden’s tough statement received a standing ovation from the troops attending the event, and was described by many commentators as a “warning”. Mr Biden later said he wanted a “stable, predictable” relationship with Russia, built on the “responsibility” shouldered by both powers. “But I have made it clear that the United States will respond strongly if the Russian government engages in harmful activities,” Biden added. “I will inform him that if Russia violates the sovereignty of democracies, in America, Europe and elsewhere, they will have to bear the consequences.” Nearly three years after American commentators criticized former President Donald Trump for being too soft on Putin during a meeting in Helsinki (Finland), lawmakers from both parties expect Biden to take a tough stance. stronger in the next meeting. Biden has previously declared that Putin is a “murderer” and promised during the campaign that he would make Putin “pay” for alleged election interference. Meanwhile, Mr Putin described Mr Biden as “an experienced and careful man” who has devoted his life to politics. The Russian President hopes that these qualities of his American counterpart will have a positive impact on the upcoming negotiations. But Putin also said that Moscow “does not expect any breakthrough in Russian-American relations”. Although Biden’s allies often portray the president as being tough on Putin, in reality, Biden still gave his Russian counterpart a huge opportunity after taking office, by wading orders. sanctions on the Nord Stream 2 pipeline, facilitating the completion of the project connecting Russian natural gas fields with European consumers. Former President Donald Trump, despite his “soft” accusations against Russia, has stalled the project for more than a year with sanctions.

Original SIM card but still occupied by others Ms. ATH (in Binh Duong) reflected on 2-3 days, she discovered that her phone displayed a message that could not be called, so she went to VNPT Binh Duong Business Center to ask for a check. Here, the technical staff said that the SIM card is not damaged, still works two-way. On March 4, she went to the center to ask for a new SIM card. After that, the phone works normally. On March 12, Ms. H. logged into her credit card account to check and found that the money in the account had been withdrawn in the form of payment for purchases. Suspecting that her SIM information was exposed during the SIM rework, Ms. H. went to VNPT Binh Duong Business Center to find out. Only now did she know that on 2-3 days there was a transaction to replace her SIM at a VNPT center in Ho Chi Minh City. Ms. H. said that this SIM phone number has been registered by her owner before. Now suddenly my SIM was declared and appropriated by someone else, leading to the loss of her credit card more than 58 million dong. “During the settlement process, the representative of VNPT HCMC (where the SIM exchange happened) said he would support me with a scratch card worth 2 million VND, but I did not accept it. The main reason for losing money is because the network operator re-issued the SIM in the wrong process, not because of me, “- Ms. H. shared. Ms. ATH was upset because someone else took control of her phone SIM, so her credit account lost more than 58 million dong. Photo: DANG LE Another case is Mr. Trieu Duc Khai (in Thai Binh) also said on April 21, he made a complaint to VNPT Center in Thai Thuy district, Thai Binh. The content of the complaint about his VinaPhone SIM, although registered by the owner, was still controlled by others, leading to the loss of 35 million VND in his credit card. Through working with VNPT in Thai Thuy district, it was determined that someone had impersonated him to carry out the procedure to lose the SIM and make a new SIM with the subscriber number that Mr. Khai was using. This person only declared five phone numbers to call out, come to the nearest, and then be given a new SIM. Occupying SIM is a trick to appropriate money Exchange with Ho Chi Minh City Law Vo Do Thang, Director of Athena International Security and Network Administration Training Center, said that through the two cases above, it shows that if anyone reports the loss of SIM and only needs to provide five phone numbers to call. going, calling recently, committing to subscriber owner rights to be re-issued with a new SIM is not good at all. This has created a loophole for crooks to steal other people’s SIMs, to the detriment of genuine SIM users. According to Mr. Thang, most of the victims in the SIM loss cases were taken by fraudsters by making online payments. To pay for online purchases, there are three factors: The first is a mobile phone number. The credit card holder must register this phone number with the bank to authenticate transactions and receive bank notifications. The second is the card number (a series of numbers printed on the front of the credit card). The third is the OTP (one-time password) verification code sent to the phone number registered with the bank. In the working minutes and written responses to Ms. H. and Mr. Khai, the network operator confirmed that re-issuing SIM cards to others was not in accordance with the process. Photo: DANG LE. After hijacking the right to use the SIM, the crooks will take the victim’s credit card number to pay online, then use the newly issued SIM to receive the OTP code and complete the payment. The victim’s credit card number has been stolen by the crooks before, appropriating the phone SIM is only the last step to perform the act of appropriating money. According to Mr. Thang, not everyone who loses their phone SIM will lose money in their credit cards and bank accounts. Only when they have had their credit card or account information exposed before can crooks steal money. The victim’s credit card information may be exposed during previous online transactions. The cause is usually because the victim has filled out information on fraudulent websites, installed malicious code on the phone to steal card information, opened attachments of unknown origin or it can also be due to credit institutions. does not guarantee safety in terms of security,” Thang shared. In the working minutes and written responses to Ms. H. and Mr. Khai, the network operator confirmed that re-issuing SIM cards to others was not in accordance with the process. Photo: DANG LE The network operator did the wrong process In both cases mentioned above, in the process of working with customers, the operator has confirmed that the teller when carrying out the SIM reissuance procedure only requires the customer to provide five outgoing and incoming phone numbers. subscriber ownership is not the correct procedure. In response to the recent complaint of VNPT Center in Thai Thuy district, Thai Binh province against Mr. Trieu Duc Khai, it is clear that because of this unfortunate incident, VNPT Center of Thai Thuy district has apologized to customers. The material damage that the impostor causes to the customer, the center will fix and compensate for the loss. As for the case of Ms. ATH, VNPT HCMC said that it will accompany the customer to provide necessary information to serve the investigation agency.

On June 3, a large plastic surgery hospital in the south of Seoul announced on its website that its server had been attacked with ransomware and that hackers appeared to have stolen data. patient’s personal data. This is the latest in a series of recently reported ransomware attacks – a tactic used by cybercriminals to infiltrate businesses’ systems and use their data to demand ransom. ransom. According to the South Korean Ministry of Science and Information Technology, last year there were 127 ransomware attacks, a threefold increase from the previous year. Since the beginning of this year, the country has recorded 65 attacks with ransomware. Malware attacks blackmail was aimed at various businesses in Korea. Last month, food delivery company Super Hero’s operations were paralyzed for hours after an attack that affected 15,000 delivery workers nationwide. Last November, local fashion and retail group E-Land was also “inquired” by hackers, forcing 23 of the 50 branches of the NC Department Store and NewCore Outlet to suspend operations. Mr. Kim Seung-joo, Professor of Cyber ​​Security at University Korea , commented that as companies are forced to choose to increase their reliance on remote work during the pandemic, cyber attacks malicious code Blackmail has become a bigger threat because they can paralyze the entire working system. This has led to many companies paying a ransom and has led hackers to carry out more attacks. He urged businesses to invest in cybersecurity to prevent the threat in the first place. In response to ransomware attacks in the near future, last month, the Korean Ministry of Information and Communications Technology set up a 24-hour monitoring group to support hacked companies. . The government is now providing assistance to affected companies in system recovery.

“Computer Vision” technology is capable of warning behaviors such as: Not wearing a mask and not wearing a seat belt. Accordingly, Binh Anh Electronic Technology Development Co., Ltd (BA GPS) began to install the “Not wearing a mask warning” feature for free for some passenger transport units starting from June 2021. . Specifically, this analysis system is connected to the camera on the vehicle to get image data, then AI technology will automatically analyze and send a notification to the transport unit whenever it detects someone not wearing a mask. or wearing a mask incorrectly. The system also ticks green boxes for faces wearing masks and red boxes for faces not wearing masks. The warning system is sent to the transport business unit via software on smartphones and computers if there are passengers. People who do not wear masks are circled in red by the computer and sent an alert to the system Pham Thai Hoa – Technology Director of BA GPS shared: “The technology to process and analyze the necessary information in the photos is called Computer Vision (CV), translated into Vietnamese as Machine Vision. This CV technology is applied by us on the vehicle camera system”. Previously, in mid-May, Tien Phong reflected that surveillance cameras recorded images of many people not wearing masks on passenger cars, even the drivers and assistants. After that, the Ministry of Transport and the Directorate for Roads issued a document to correct this situation.

A wake-up call about SMALL governance Recently, on social networks in Vietnam, a computer screen shot of a famous artist’s NH account statement related to the incident has attracted a lot of public opinion. Although NH has admitted that its employees spread the word, this is a wake-up call for those working in the banking sector, as well as the leaders of these organizations. In the era of information technology, customer data security can be said to be the most important for banks. Previously, the prestige of the banks was in the solidity of the safes, which were dug deep in the tunnels, through many layers of thick steel doors, resistant to fire and explosion and even earthquakes. Today it is the NH’s security system. Because most assets and liabilities are stored in the form of numbers, lines of data. The disclosure of customer data is often considered an accident of the security system, due to unintentional human error, or due to an external attack. But security risks do not only come from information technology systems. There are three places where security risks arise, that is from a governance perspective in relation to processes, monitoring, information systems, and operations. The above incident shows an error in the operation of the staff, related to the management of the bank. Normally, when signing a work contract, in the contract terms, of course, there must be things that employees must not do, not to mention the business ethics of the industry. And so this is not entirely the fault of the staff, NH is also responsible for regular training, as well as supervision. The consequences of customer data being disclosed are serious on several levels. For example, the bank must be responsible for the damages incurred because the customer account is attacked individually, or the entire information system of the bank is the prey of hackers. Equally important damage is the reputation of NH. As a customer, no one wants to send money or do business with NH but “house” is loose. The more important partners are not. NH is also confused Customer data in banks is the survival of banks. Security is the new generation of “safes”, and the prestige lies in the system, as well as the consciousness and skills of the key holders. In the matter of customer data, banks also have a big confusion between needing a lot of customer data (KYC), security and customer privacy (privacy). Banks themselves also need a lot of KYC, not only to manage risks, but also to develop services to provide to customers, especially cross-selling and value-added services. State regulatory agencies also require banks to perform KYC, mainly for the purpose of anti-money laundering and illegal activities. But when customer data increases, integration from many sources, many systems with heterogeneous standards or formats, is a huge challenge for NH’s information system. Because the more sources, the more “entrances” there are more exposed points, many places can be hacked. The collection of customer data is also met with a certain reaction from them because of privacy. In many developed countries, such as Europe with the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 aka GDPR, there is a huge shift from service providers in general and the sector. NH in particular. There are data, currently NH wants to collect the consent of customers. In short, customer data in banks is the survival of banks. The security is a new generation “safe” form, and the prestige lies in the system, as well as the consciousness and skills of the key holders. Domestic banks need to pay attention In terms of customer data security risks, domestic banks compete with each other in technology and there is almost no big difference between banks in the same group, for example, large banks have enough resources to Get the best system. Even later banks have an advantage because technology costs decrease over time. The problem for data security, therefore, mainly lies in the management system of the bank, as well as in the daily operation. In administration, besides processes and monitoring systems, leaders’ awareness of security issues is extremely important. Not only investing properly for the information technology system, leaders must always closely monitor this issue, considering this as their important task. Therefore, there is a need for consistent direction and coordination between the banks’ departments, considering this as the core activity of the bank. In the course of daily operations, it is the awareness and skills of the employees. Periodic and continuous training is absolutely necessary for all employees, especially functions and positions of authority. If the employee is aware of the seriousness of the disclosure of the customer’s account, no employee would dare to act so impulsively, not to mention, besides internal handling, it may also be involved in legal regulations .

With many different boycott content, but which of course includes mixed opinions about this popular tourist resort, most recently, participants suddenly received a warning from Facebook when join this group. Community Violation Notice from Facebook Specifically, the message: “This group has allowed posts that violate our community standards. Please review this group before joining” will appear to new members, when clicking join the group. Despite being warned to violate Facebook’s community policy, the Dai Nam Boycott group is currently continuing to increase in number of new members joining the group. Compared to the time of May 25, there were more than 800 members, as of May 29, it increased to 2.4k members and today (May 30) it has increased to 3.2k members (calculated at the time of screen capture). Figure). And it seems that the number of members joining this group has not shown any sign of stopping at the present time. The number of members of the group is still increasing Previously, the review content of Dai Nam resort was also posted on this group and received a lot of attention from the members. Of course, in the boycott group, it is not unusual that the majority of comments expressed dissatisfaction about this resort. The opinion that they will not come back again because most of the people who have gone (some have gone several times) say that they will not come back again. However, it is worth mentioning that there are netizens who have not yet gone but boycotted (?!). However, there are still some actual review comments that are quite “contemplative” when actually recounting their experiences in Dai Nam with fair comments. There are compliments, there are clear criticisms and at the same time give some advice on experience for those who intend to go to Dai Nam. Most of the comments were criticized for many different reasons. However, there are still people who insist that they will still go after the epidemic is over.

The Rice Trader affirmed that up to now, only Ho Quang Tri private enterprise is the first and only Vietnamese enterprise officially approved to use the unique “World’s Best Rice” award logo. rights for marketing and business purposes. According to the Rice Trader, there are about 10 Vietnamese companies that use the ST25 rice brand to print on packages and promotional materials in the country and for export without asking for permission or consent from TRT. TRT officially warns Vietnamese piracy companies about the respect needed when using the brand logo “World’s Best Rice” in their rice packages being traded in the market. Photo: TL. Through this release, TRT officially warns Vietnamese companies that infringe on piracy about the necessary respect when using the brand symbol “World’s Best Rice” in their rice packages being traded. business in the market. This is an illegal use of intellectual property rights and provisions of the “World’s Best Rice” award logo. According to TRT, contest participants acknowledge that they have no right to use the contest trademarks without permission and that the winning country is also required to abide by the contest’s commitments. Without a proper resolution to this action, those company names will be made public because of their influence on the overall direction of the industry. “In addition, our organization takes this matter seriously that the country may even lose the right to participate in this competition in the following years. We firmly believe that value creators deserve it. deserves a reward and this has always been our intention throughout the process of organizing this contest,” said a representative of TRT.

Illustration. Dry skin is one of the signs that the skin has begun to age. Because over time, the natural moisturizers will be reduced in both quantity and quality, making the skin dry, rough and less smooth as the original. Tiny brown spots In addition to estrogen deficiency and age, the sun is also the cause of melasma, pigmentation, freckles, age spots, and makes the skin age faster than usual. In addition, the signs that ultraviolet rays cause are very small, difficult to recognize, thereby making you subjective, such as small, faint brown spots on the surface of the skin. This is the first stage of the problem of melasma, freckles and age spots. Therefore, even if you are in your 20s, you also need to take steps to cover up and protect yourself from the sun before going out every day. Wrinkles and sagging skin Wrinkles are a sign that collagen and elastin in the body is reduced, causing the skin to lose its elasticity. Women can check the youthfulness of their skin by pinching a piece of skin under two fingers for a few seconds and then releasing. The longer the skin takes to return to its normal state, the higher the risk of aging. “Turkey neck” Older people can leave marks on the neck because the skin on the neck is thinner than most other parts of the body, so it is easier to lose elasticity faster. This will create “turkey necks” – layers of loose skin in the neck. If you see this sign, your skin is aging. In addition to the natural aging process, fluctuations in weight, sun exposure and even genetics can cause “turkey neck”. Tips to delay the signs of premature skin aging – Use sunscreen daily and limit time out in direct sunlight – Moisturize the skin regularly, as dry skin is prone to wrinkles. – Do not go to bed without removing makeup. – Wash your face twice a day and after sweating a lot. Exfoliate once a week to help exfoliate dead skin cells that cause skin to age. Eat foods rich in protein and calcium as they are important for skin and hair health. Cut down on sugary and processed foods. Drink plenty of water every day because water helps keep your skin soft and supple. – Spend 7-8 hours each night sleeping. When you sleep, your body repairs and rejuvenates itself. Stop smoking as it accelerates the aging process. Avoid using skin care products that contain harmful chemicals that can irritate and damage the skin. Choose organic and herbal skin care products. Avoid swimming in high-chlorine pools as it can irritate skin and hair. Do not shower for a long time as this will strip the skin of its natural oils and contribute to dryness. – Avoid repetitive facial expressions. Drink less alcohol, as it dehydrates the body. Exercise most days of the week to improve circulation and skin health.

People wait in line to get tested for COVID-19 in New York, US, February 5, 2021. Photo: THX/VNA Specifically, over the weekend, the number of new COVID-19 cases in the 7-day average in the US was about 40,800 cases, down 30% from the previous 2 weeks and down 43% from the most recent peak in the middle of the epidemic. last April (71,000 cases/day). This number is also the lowest number of new cases recorded in the US since September 19, 2020. Meanwhile, the average number of deaths from COVID-19 per day in the past 7 days in the US is 667 cases, much lower than the epidemic peaks last winter. Currently, about 46% of the US population has received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine and more than 30% have received the full dose. US President Joe Biden announced last week that the country’s new goal is to vaccinate at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine by July 4 by Independence Day for 70% of the adult population and 160 million adults. receive a full dose of vaccine. In Washington, D.C., the number of new daily COVID-19 cases is now at its lowest level in nearly a year. The city government plans within the next two weeks to lift restrictions on most businesses and public places. Accordingly, museums, zoos, restaurants, shops, religious facilities … are allowed to reopen completely from May 21, while bars, nightclubs, entertainment venues … entertainment, stadiums can reopen from June 11. Wearing a mask is still mandatory in enclosed spaces, except when eating and drinking. More than 225,000 people out of a population of 700,000 in Washington are now fully vaccinated. Meanwhile, in New York state, more than 60% of its nearly 20 million population has received at least one shot of the COVID-19 vaccine. To increase immunity, Governor Andrew Cuomo on May 10 announced a pilot program, allowing people who have been vaccinated against COVID-19 to ride the subway for free. Specifically, from May 12-16, New Yorkers can get a single dose of Johnson & Johnson’s vaccine at one of six selected medical facilities. Once vaccinated, they will receive a free metro pass for a week or a suburban rail return ticket. Governor Cuomo said the program, if successful, would be replicated. On the same day, May 10, the US State Department announced that it had lowered its travel advisories to the UK and Israel to level 3 and level 2, respectively, from the highest level of warning level 4. Last month, the Department of State US delivery has put 119 countries, including the UK, Israel, Canada, France, Mexico and Germany, on the alert level 4 list, which recommends not to go to these countries because these are places with a high risk of infection. COVID-19 infection is very high. Currently, about 150 of the 209 destinations on the US State Department’s list are under Level 4 alert.

Illustration. According to Hai Duong Police, recently, many mobile subscribers have received messages impersonating financial institutions and banks, sending fake and fraudulent content in order to appropriate people’s money. Through verification and evaluation, the authorities found that these fake messages did not come from the systems of financial institutions, banks and telecommunications businesses, but were distributed through transmitters. fake mobile signal. These are devices of foreign origin, which are illegally traded and used by objects for the purpose of carrying out attacks to spread spam messages to deceive users, especially users in remote areas. urban area. Fraudsters often use fake broadcast devices to send spam messages directly to the phone without going through the mobile telecommunications network. These messages are sent by objects that change source information in order to create trust and deceive users. The message content is often advertising, instructions or contains links to fake websites like official websites of financial institutions, banks to lure and steal users’ information such as accounts, password, OTP code. Many users do not recognize the fake website, so they provide personal information to access the bank account such as entering the account name and password. After the user provides the information, the fake website will redirect to another website or notify the user to wait. The subject uses the user’s personal information to log in to the official website of financial institutions and banks to get the OTP authentication code (if necessary).

This time started in the summer, the demand for cooling devices increased, leading to a dizzying increase in electricity bills, so solar fan models were sold on the market. They are advertised, instead of running on electricity like conventional types, this type of fan operates entirely on solar power. Specifically, each solar fan will come with a solar panel to help absorb sunlight and produce electricity to maintain operation. Depending on the type of panel, when placed in the sun, the fan controller will charge the battery, which takes 4-6 hours. After the battery is fully charged, the fan will work for 6-10 hours continuously, even on rainy days without sunshine. In addition, users can use grid electricity to charge the battery for storage and use. Solar fans are causing fever in the market this summer Currently, on the market, these fans come from many places such as: China, Korea, Vietnam, … with very diverse prices, depending on size and function. In which, the lowest price is about 200,000-300,000 VND (mini fan), tree fan costs 800,000-2 million VND. Many fan lines are being discounted by 20-50% to attract buyers. For example, the 20W mini solar fan line is being discounted by up to 50%, from VND 830,000 to VND 417,000; mini fan 3.5W X9E is 40% off, from 510,000 VND to 306,000 VND; The Sunisi FT-30 fan model is priced at 1 million VND, 50% less than the original price of 2.1 million VND; Korichi KRC 6300 fan model reduced from 1.2 million VND to 890,000 VND; Jenpect 220V fan model has the original price of 1.3 million VND, down 34%, now only 850,000 VND,… According to the advertisement of the staff of household electrical stores, compared to traditional fans, solar fans have many advantages such as: no electricity costs, no fear of sudden power outages in hot summer days. Not only that, they are also very convenient when going on a picnic or camping trip; can directly charge other mobile devices such as phones, flashlights, … via USB port, which is very convenient. Moreover, long battery life 3-5 years of use, battery capacity up to 12,000 mAh, using time up to 8-12 hours. With “divine” functions, especially without consuming electricity, this type of solar fan immediately caused a fever in the market and was sought after by many people. Mr. Nguyen Hung – an employee of an electronics store in Ho Chi Minh City – said that at this point, the demand for cooling fans has begun to increase sharply, in which the solar fan line is the best-selling model. . As at the beginning of summer, his shop sold about 300 solar fans, at the peak of last year’s heat, he sold up to 800 units. Many fan models are having super cheap prices to attract buyers Similarly, Mr. Hoang Van Binh – an employee of an electrical appliance store in Thanh Xuan (Hanoi) – also said that in recent years, the price of electricity has tended to increase, people have the need to buy and use electricity. Use energy-saving appliances and take advantage of natural energy sources. Therefore, from May, customers looking to buy solar fans are busier. Currently, he only has 15 more fans to sell out. According to him, this type of fan is often suitable for low-rise houses, level 4 houses rather than high-rise buildings and apartments like in the city. Because the fan and solar panels are separate, it is necessary to choose a location to mount the panels to catch the sun (roof, rooftop, balcony, front yard, …) then connect to the fan set. Therefore, with high-rise buildings, moving equipment is quite difficult. But Binh also admitted, when it rains, the charging capacity of the fan will be poor, so in the prolonged rainy season solar fans will not be able to promote their full benefits. At that time, the fan can still be used by the grid as usual. Talk to PV. VietNamNet, Mr. Le Van Kien – a technical staff member of an electrical appliance store in Khuat Duy Tien (Thanh Xuan, Hanoi) – shared, when buying a solar fan, it is necessary to pay attention to the lifespan of the panels. The origin of the battery is unclear, poor quality will make the fan’s performance worse, the fan runs erratically, the lifespan is reduced, and it pollutes the environment. Moreover, the life of the battery is usually only 2-3 years, then it has to be replaced at a considerable cost. In addition, the capacity of the battery will determine the operating time of the fan, the battery is designed with a high capacity, the better the charge will be and vice versa. Limit the selection of multi-function rechargeable fans that are equipped with lights, alarms or clocks… because these features consume power from large batteries, making it easier for the battery to fail faster. Users should not be greedy, but buying low-quality fans will have many potential risks, so consider when choosing and need to choose to buy products of reputable brands and addresses.

This is the second time this giant predator has been found to have COVID-19 after eight tigers and lions at Bronx Zoo, New York, USA, had similar results in April 2020. According to experts, it is likely that these lions were infected with COVID-19 from people working in the NZP, because more than 25 NZP staff has reportedly been infected with COVID-19 to date. NZP is a 54-hectare zoo, caring for more than 2,000 animals, the most visited place in India today. Because the incident on the NZP had to close and wait until further notice. Lions infected with COVID-19. Viruses can be transmitted from animals to humans and vice versa Many studies have found airborne transmission and animal-to-animal contact, from human to animal, and vice versa. Cats and weasels are the two animals most susceptible to SARS-CoV-2, while dogs are shorter; chickens, pigs and ducks are not infected. ZS-CoV-2 reverse transmission from animals to humans in dogs and cats has been confirmed by genetic analysis of virus strains isolated from domestic animals and domestic animals. Most studies show no clinical symptoms in infected dogs and cats. There is no evidence of animal-to-animal transmission of SARS-CoV-2, although this possibility is not excluded. COVID-19 in mink farms showed both human-to-mink transmission and vice versa. This raises concerns about weasels becoming an unexpected vector for SARS-CoV-2. According to three studies updated by the European Center for Infectious Diseases and Policy (CIDRAP), a high proportion of dogs and cats may have acquired COVID-19 from the owner, and the virus “jumps”. People and weasels go back and forth on farms in the Netherlands. Weasel is the most susceptible animal to SARS-CoV-2. First, a small study conducted by the University of Guelph in Ontario, Canada. As a result, most dogs and cats may have acquired COVID-19 from their owners, scientific evidence finds antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 in their blood. “Testing an animal’s blood after the owner has recovered is the best way to assess human-to-animal transmission because the time it takes to determine the current infection in the pet is narrow. There is sufficient evidence from many studies to recommend that people infected with SARS-CoV-2 should be isolated from humans and animals. Dr. Dorothee Bienzle, University of Guelph, key author. The second study was published in the journal Emerging Infectious Diseases late September 2020. Scientists in Hong Kong examined respiratory and fecal samples from 50 cats from COVID-19-infected households or their close contacts for SARS-CoV-2 RNA from November 11. 2 to 11/8/2020. 6 out of 50 cats (12%) tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 RNA on RT-PCR and the viral genome from a pair of hosts and cats were identical. All cats show no symptoms but have lung abnormalities similar to those found in infected people. The researchers call for broader serological monitoring of cats connected to COVID-19 patients to determine the incidence of human-to-cat transmission. The third study, presented at the ESCMID conference, monitored COVID-19 contamination in 16 mink farms with more than 720,000 animals in the Netherlands. As a result, SARS-CoV-2 was found to have “jumped” back and forth between people and weasels, in the case of animal-to-human transmission or vice versa. Researchers who examined and sequenced the entire genome showed that 66 out of 97 people (67%) who lived or worked on farms were diagnosed with COVID-19 on PCR or a resistance test. can. Currently, COVID-19 is still spreading in farms, despite human efforts, the authors reveal. In order to minimize the risk of transmission of the virus between humans and animals and vice versa, scientists argue that close cooperation between animal health agencies and people is essential for early identification and control of schools. infection with SARS-CoV-2. Cats need to be isolated to prevent infection with SARS-CoV-2. In addition, to avoid transmission of the virus from infected households and pets to livestock, the livestock must be in the same quarantine as applies to humans. Letting your pet roam in a community increases the likelihood of spreading the virus. The original origin of the virus has not been determined yet, so livestock should be strictly managed and all measures are taken according to the veterinary authorities, especially pets in areas where epidemics have occurred. and has been translated.

Several types of masks are floating, of unknown origin in the market. The reason is that it contains microscopic graphene particles. Inhalation of graphene can cause serious lung damage … How toxic is graphene? According to disseminated information, this mask is sold and distributed by the company Métallifer based in Quebec (Canada). However, during quality testing, the authorities discovered that this disposable mask contained microscopic graphene particles. Graphene is a very thin, durable material used in fabrication, but it can harm the lungs by inhalation and can cause long-term health problems. A team of biologists, engineers and material scientists at Brown University tested graphene’s potential toxicity on human cells. What they found was that the jagged edges of super-sharp and super-hard graphene nanoparticles could easily penetrate cell membranes in human lungs, skin and immune cells. These materials can be inhaled unintentionally or they can be injected or transplanted into the body as components of biomedical technology. Assoc.Prof. Dr. Pham Van Nho, University of Science of Science, Hanoi National University said that graphene or graphene is an atomic thick flat sheet of carbon atoms with sp2 bonds forming a crystal array. honeycomb shape. Its name is composed of “graphite” (graphite) and suffix “-en” (English is “-ene”). Graphene has the ability to fill its electron holes with other electrons almost instantly. Meaning it transferred a large amount of charge in a short amount of time. The graphene in the mask is only a few nanometers in size, a million times thinner than a human hair, easily sensing and preventing tiny particles containing virus molecules. Graphene is the first two-dimensional material found in nature, is 100 times stronger than steel, is paper thin, is more flexible than plastic, and has good resistance to a wide variety of gases and liquids. However, its safety is still controversial. Worry about raw materials to make imported masks Assoc.Prof.Dr Pham Van Nho said that the most dangerous on the market today is not the name of the warning mask mentioned above. The biggest concern is the imported raw materials to make the masks of the manufacturers that do not guarantee the quality. The raw materials for the production of pages of many enterprises are currently imported from the Chinese market. These ingredients are difficult to control origin as well as safety. That is not to mention that many establishments use poor quality chemical fiber fabrics. When used as a mask, it can form particles that cause respiratory toxicity. Or the simplest thing when it comes to exporting masks, the ingredients that are not clean enough are also very harmful to users, especially disposable masks. “Asbestos fibers harm the lungs because they are in the form of microscopic crystal fibers. It can enter the airways and then enter the lungs easily. Masks that use inexpensive ingredients do the same thing. This type of dust is usually very small in diameter, not visible to the naked eye, so there is only way to buy products from reputable brands, which are inspected by safety authorities ”, Assoc.Prof. Dr. Pham Van Nho said . According to Dr. Nguyen Van Thong, former Director of Textile Research Institute, in the current context, the quality of antibacterial fabric for export of pages needs to meet the requirements of conformity certification according to QCVN 01 / BCT: 2017 and bactericidal ability ≥ 90% tested according to AATCC 100: 2012 standard. Research and application of antimicrobial treatment technology for fabrics have been concerned by many units and individuals at different scales. That is the laboratory scale and the industrial scale. Treatment technology and antibacterial fabric production have been applied by many textile and garment enterprises in fabric production according to the requirements of domestic and international customers. With the current equipment conditions, many businesses have enough conditions to develop antibacterial fabrics. Only worrying is the source of imported raw materials with low prices, no quality control as well as the export process of the page. Mr. Nguyen Minh Tuan, Director of the Department of Medical Equipment and Medical Works, Ministry of Health, said that Vietnamese enterprises have been proactively able to export masks to provide for the domestic market and also export to other different market. The possibility of importing masks from China is very low. But to ensure safety in the manufacture of masks, the Department of Medical Equipment and Works will coordinate with relevant agencies to check and inspect those exporting manufacturers using raw materials. Made from China. To buy quality masks, according to Assoc.Prof. Dr. Pham Van Nho, before buying, customers should choose a reputable and reputable manufacturer. Check the outside of the box: When the mask is in its original case, the user should see the information printed on the box. If the parameters are fully printed (name of manufacturer, distributor, barcode number, batch number, manufacturing date, especially the declaration number of the medical device standard), this is the mask. medical. The fabric for fake masks is often mixed with stone powder, so when touching, the mask’s surface will be rough, not soft. Real medical masks have a certain thickness. Proper mask, the inside has a filter. This filter is soft, smooth, thick. Along with the antibacterial filter cloth, this fabric has a different color and texture compared to the other filter layers.

Vietnam Electricity warned of fraud Vietnam Electricity is a State-owned enterprise operating in the electricity sector that always fully and seriously complies with the provisions of the law. On April 23, 2021, Vietnam Electricity announced: In recent times, in Ho Chi Minh City and some southern provinces and cities appeared leaflets to publish information. support unsecured loans in fake form and take advantage of the image, logo and name of Vietnam Electricity. Vietnam Electricity confirmed that it does not have any unsecured lending activities as the above leaflet content. Vietnam Electricity does not have any affiliated units or affiliated enterprises of Vietnam Electricity named “Vietnam Electricity Bank”. Vietnam Electricity is a State-owned enterprise operating in the electricity sector that always fully and seriously complies with the provisions of the law. In recent years, there have been a number of units and individuals forging information, advertising and distributing leaflets with the logo and brand name of Vietnam Electricity without obtaining approval and permission from Electricity of Vietnam. Vietnamese forces in many different activities. This is a violation of the law, with signs of fraud. Electricity of Vietnam Corporation respectfully requests the press and news agencies to promptly inform the people to prevent and raise their vigilance, not to let the bad guys take advantage of them. Previously, Vietnam Electricity also warned about fraudulent advertisements of “energy saving devices”, “smart energy saving cards” … Technical experts have warned about the types of “super power-saving devices” advertised on the Internet that can reduce electricity consumption by 30-40% with the simple operation of plugging into any power outlet. in the home, and recently appeared more ads on social networks about the so-called “Smart Energy Saving Card”. Reality shows that it is completely impossible to reduce power consumption as advertised. This is just a trick to deceive customers, and hit on the psychology of consumers to want to save spending. If there is a type of equipment that directly interferes with the operation of the meter, causing the electric meter to slow down, it also means that the user of this equipment is committing acts of violation of electricity use, will be collection of electricity bill, even may be criminally dealt with in accordance with the law.

Celebrity endorsements of financial products must be careful, and financial consumers must treat celebrity endorsements rationally, and effectively guard against financial traps.

On April 22, the Consumer Rights Protection Bureau of the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission issued the second issue of 2021 risk warning, reminding financial consumers to treat celebrity endorsements rationally, to “three look and one prevention”, and to effectively prevent financial traps.

The China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission stated that when consumers choose financial products or services, they should not blindly believe in celebrity endorsements, and should treat the products or services of “star endorsements” rationally. We must insist on rational investment and value investment. It is not advisable to pursue “quick money” blindly, and we must abandon the concept of getting rich overnight. Be cautious about financial products that promise higher-than-average returns, and don’t believe in false propaganda such as high returns and risk-free.

In recent years, with frequent P2P thunderstorms, many celebrities who have endorsed P2P products have also become the focus of public opinion. There are also endless debates about whether celebrities should be responsible for the endorsed P2P products and whether they should participate in compensation. The China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission emphasized this time that celebrities and other public figures should abide by the “PRC Advertising Law” and other laws and regulations, and must not recommend or certify unused products or unreceived services, and must not know or know that advertising is false Still make recommendations and proofs. Before accepting endorsements, it is necessary to check whether the endorsement agency has legal qualifications, and whether the endorsed products and services are true in content and meet regulatory requirements.

Supervisory breakdown of the five common models of celebrity endorsement financial products

In recent years, with the rapid development of network technology, various Internet platforms and wealth management investment products have emerged one after another. Some institutions have invited celebrities to endorse promotion or platforms. Problems such as excessive publicity, promised high returns, and misleading publicity have seriously damaged financial consumption. The legitimate rights and interests of the person.

The China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission stated that currently, celebrities endorse a wide variety of Internet platforms or financial products, and there are roughly five common models:

One is to endorse the P2P platform. In recent years, platforms endorsed by celebrities have exploded, causing participants’ funds to be damaged.

The second is to endorse products suspected of illegal fund-raising. For example, the “Zhongjin Group” fund-raising fraud case has caused more than 10,000 investors to suffer capital losses.

The third is to speak for the Internet financial platform. The network platform is more convenient to operate, but it is also prone to problems such as risk warnings and insufficient insurance notification. Consumers should not ignore risk notifications due to celebrity endorsements.

The fourth is for financial products and platforms. For example, “Pan Asia Nonferrous” once invited a scholar to attend an event, using the aura of celebrities to mislead the public in consumption.

The fifth is to endorse certain types of products or the overall brand of bancassurance institutions. For example, celebrities act as bank credit card promotion ambassadors or publicity ambassadors.

In addition, the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission proposed that some fans have no bottom line to chase stars, and irrational star-chasing behaviors such as raising funds for celebrities have also been used by criminals, causing some fund-raising chaos. Others use the celebrity effect to over-market and induce over-consumption and over-consumption, which may lead to problems such as excessive debt and violent collection.

The China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission emphasized that spokespersons and financial product suppliers should perform their responsibilities in compliance with laws and regulations. On the one hand, financial product suppliers should effectively regulate the financial marketing and publicity activities of their institutions and partners. Market operating entities that have not obtained the corresponding financial business qualifications must not carry out marketing and publicity activities related to the financial business; they must not use fraud or attract others. Marketing and promotion of financial products or financial services in a misunderstood manner; no guarantee promises regarding the future effects, returns or related conditions of the asset management products shall be made, and no explicit or implied guaranteed principal, no risk or guaranteed return shall be made.

On the other hand, celebrities and other public figures should abide by the “Advertising Law of the People’s Republic of China” and other laws and regulations, and must not recommend or certify unused products or unreceived services. Make recommendations and proofs. Before accepting endorsements, it is necessary to check whether the endorsement agency has legal qualifications, and whether the endorsed products and services are true in content and meet regulatory requirements.

Don’t blindly believe in celebrity endorsements, and be careful when you “call” young people

In response to the above-mentioned chaos, the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission reminds financial consumers that financial product information is highly asymmetry and professional. If the spokesperson himself does not distinguish the endorsement product qualifications and does not understand the product risks, it may cause misleading publicity risks. Financial consumers should treat celebrity endorsements rationally, not blindly believe in celebrity endorsements, and should rationally treat the products or services of celebrity endorsements, so as to achieve “three look and one prevention” to effectively guard against financial traps.

The so-called “three look and one prevention” mainly include the following four aspects:

The first is to see whether the institution has obtained the corresponding qualifications. The financial industry belongs to the franchise industry, and it is not allowed to operate without a license or to operate financial business beyond the scope.

The China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission reminded that consumers should choose formal institutions and formal channels with corresponding financial business qualifications to obtain financial services. You can log on to the website of the financial supervision department and the website of the industry association to inquire about the relevant information of the institution, or verify the qualification of the institution with the local financial supervision unit.

The second is to see whether the product meets its own needs and risk tolerance. When consumers purchase financial products, they must understand important information such as product types, terms, risk levels, notifications and warnings, and choose appropriate financial products based on their own needs and risk tolerance.

“We must insist on rational investment and value investment. It is not advisable to pursue’quick money’ blindly, and we must abandon the concept of getting rich overnight.” The China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission emphasized.

The third is to see whether the income is reasonable. Investment and financial management risks and benefits coexist. Consumers should pay attention to whether they disclose risks and benefits truthfully in the face of marketing and promotion to prevent misleading or fraud. Be cautious about financial products that promise higher-than-average returns, and don’t believe in false propaganda such as high returns and risk-free.

The fourth is to prevent excessive borrowing. Look at advertising and publicity such as loan consumption and financial investment rationally, maintain a rational financial concept, and do not blindly follow the trend of consumption, lending and investment.

The China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission emphasized that young people, in particular, should be sensible in responding to fan support, borrowing and chasing stars, and beware of financial traps such as illegal fund-raising.

Do a good job in dealing with P2P stock risks in three aspects

In recent years, with frequent P2P thunderstorms, many celebrities who used to endorse P2P products have also become the focus of public opinion. Stars such as Lang Lang, Tang Yan, Wang Han, Du Haitao have “stepped on thunder” as P2P endorsements. There are also endless debates about whether celebrities should be responsible for the P2P products they endorse and whether they should participate in compensation.

According to previous reports from many media, attorney Song Yixin, a partner of Shanghai Hanlian Law Firm, stated on “Tencent News Related Topics” that from the level of legal liability, there are two aspects.

First, if there is fraud in the products (including financial products) and services (including financial services) purchased or consumed by the victim, the victim should undoubtedly be held accountable from three aspects: criminal sanctions, administrative supervision, and civil claims. If there is no fraud in itself , According to the principle of de-rigid redemption, the company can only liquidate the company’s existing assets or even go bankrupt.

Second, if the relevant product has celebrity endorsements, according to the Advertising Law and other laws and regulations, check whether there are any false advertising and publicity, and there are endless and reasonable inspection obligations (as far as the scope of its ability is concerned, such as whether the agency product is legal Approved products, etc.), if not, the celebrity will not bear the responsibility after endorsement. If there is, it depends on the degree of infringement of the false advertisement and decides whether it should bear the responsibility for withdrawing the endorsement fee.

In January this year, the Beijing Chaoyang District Financial Dispute Mediation Center issued an announcement stating that some online lending institutions have hired well-known entertainers and public figures as advertising spokespersons for illegitimate gains, and used their influence to attract investors to buy illegal financial products. The above-mentioned advertising spokesperson failed to fulfill reasonable inspection obligations, made false propaganda, was at fault for the occurrence and expansion of the damage results, and bears inescapable responsibility.

The announcement emphasizes that from now on, please contact the natural person, legal person, or other organization (ie, advertising spokesperson) who has or is still in the P2P online loan advertisements and recommends or certifies related products and services in your own name or image. The center explained related issues and cooperated with the clearing of online loan platforms.

The relevant person in charge of the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission recently stated at a press conference of the first quarter of 2021 that the P2P institutions in operation have been cleared, which means that P2P institutions have stopped developing new online lending businesses, and the existing risks have been reduced in an orderly manner. The follow-up is mainly to do a good job in the disposal of existing risks. The next step will be to work hard in several aspects:

The first is to increase the efforts to resolve the risks of normal exits from institutions. First, strengthen monitoring to prevent existing institutions from violating regulations. Secondly, innovate working methods, increase the intensity of asset disposal, comprehensively use a variety of methods to increase the repayment rate of lenders, and in particular, consolidate the main responsibilities of major online lending platforms. At the same time, we are accelerating the promotion of more online lending institutions to access the credit investigation system, intensifying punishment for dishonesty, and severely cracking down on malicious evasion of debt.

The second is to speed up the asset disposal of criminal case filing agencies in accordance with the law, coordinate the public security, judicial and other departments to increase the overall planning for the recovery and disposal of the assets involved in the case, improve the efficiency of case investigation and trial, achieve smooth case handling, and actively respond to the concerns of lenders.

The third is to focus on improving the long-term mechanism of online loan risk supervision. On the one hand, we will strengthen the monitoring of exiting institutions in stock, and at the same time prevent the emergence of P2P-like institutions. On the other hand, at the legislative level, relevant departments are promoting relevant legislation, such as the “Regulations on the Supervision and Management of Non-deposit Lending Organizations” as soon as possible. , Regulations will be promulgated as soon as possible, and continue to improve the long-term supervision mechanism in terms of system construction.

By Klaus-Rainer Jackisch, MR New money to stimulate the ailing economy is generated by the European Central Bank rather silently and unspectacularly. To combat the crisis, the central bank does not buy meters high paper or tons of paint to use to print new banknotes. Their delivery vans also do not transport cash from the catacombs of the Eurotower. And there is no printing press in the cellar that rattles, runs hot and steams vigorously. No, central bank money is usually created with a few clicks of the mouse on the computer – and in times of Corona even in the home office. The ECB thus produces book money, writes it in its books and distributes it on the markets.

Almost two trillion just for PEPP

1.85 trillion euros are generated almost incidentally in this way to combat pandemics alone. For this huge sum, the ECB buys bonds on the international financial markets in its PEPP program, which was set up especially for the coronavirus pandemic: government bonds, for example, with which the euro countries raise money for their budgets. Municipal bonds, the proceeds of which municipalities use to finance a new waterworks or the renovation of their town hall. And corporate bonds, which companies use to finance the development of new e-cars, economical washing machines or unusual chocolate creations, for example. Some of these bonds have excellent credit ratings and sell like hot cakes. You shouldn’t have others in your depot. The ECB will buy them anyway if they do not fall below certain criteria. The large amount of money that flows into the cycle is supposed to keep the economy going. It enables banks to lend companies cheaply so that they can continue to exist and hopefully expand again soon. Overall, it lowers interest rates because the central bank buys almost everything and the issuers can easily get rid of their bonds: So you only have to pay low interest. And finally, it provides the entire system with sufficient liquidity so that there are no bottlenecks. Since the financial crisis, the ECB, like other central banks, has seen bond purchases as a panacea for getting the economy going again. She didn’t really succeed. But at least the economy was able to recover a little for a while and did not slide down completely.

Risks and Side Effects

The side effects of this monetary policy are visible everywhere: the stock markets are exploding as if there is no tomorrow. Because of a lack of returns, the money flows to the stock exchanges. In the real estate markets, the home is becoming a barely affordable luxury property. After all, the sheer mass of liquidity also produces inflation in the long term, so it devalues ​​the money if it is not collected again in time. The first signs are already noticeable in real life. Another phenomenon that has so far received little attention is developing more in the dark. Experts call it the “zombization” of parts of the economy – a development that causes great damage in the long term and is likely to further reduce the level of welfare. The somewhat creepy term describes companies for which the large amount of cheap money from the ECB ensures their survival, although under normal circumstances they would have been bankrupt long ago. Either because your business idea is out of date or you cannot adapt to new circumstances. Or finally, because they are simply working inefficiently. So there are companies that can no longer pay their interest from current profits and would therefore have to file for bankruptcy. But given the current conditions, they can easily get more loans to service their interest.

Thousands of “zombie” companies in Germany alone?

The Cologne Institute of the German Economy estimates that around 5000 such “seemingly dead” companies have emerged in Germany alone in the wake of the pandemic. Their processing is also prevented because the obligation to report bankruptcy is currently suspended in this country. Worldwide, the share of such “zombie” companies is now around 18 percent, estimates the Bank for International Settlements in Basel (BIS), the central bank of the central banks and, so to speak, the mother of the entire central banking world. This value is the highest ever measured. Before the crisis it was twelve percent. This is partly due to the corona crisis. But the BIS experts have calculated that around 70 percent of these companies have no chance of getting back on their feet even without the virus. Instead, they would be artificially kept alive with the cheap money. The BIS has viewed this development with great concern for years. That is why it repeatedly calls on its members to end the loose monetary policy and return to reasonable interest rates. From an economic point of view, dragging sick and unproductive companies through is fatal in the long term because it lowers the welfare of societies and thus widening the gap between rich and poor.

Innovation slowed down, dynamism paralyzed

The structural problems of the European economy, which have at least been aggravated by the ECB policy, can be seen in bare figures: The productivity of workers in Europe has stagnated for years and continued to decline during the crisis. The number of start-ups, particularly in Germany, is also falling. In the land of inventors and inventors, the volume of patent applications is also stagnating. In fact, the monetary policy of the ECB is also causing economic dynamism in the euro zone to slacken because the “seemingly dead” companies are clogging the system. Because they occupy market areas and thus make it more difficult for new, innovative companies to enter. “Zombie” companies tie up capital, expertise and skilled workers that are lacking elsewhere in order to get new developments off the ground. The OECD has been warning of these developments for years and has repeatedly made it clear that Europe in particular is falling behind in global competition. Because in order to be able to keep up with an aggressive China and the self-conscious USA, functioning, dynamic economies are needed in Europe that are characterized by high innovative strength. Otherwise, they will not be competitive in the long run. However, this is exactly what the current monetary policy prevents.

ECB fears turbulence in the financial markets

The ECB is well aware of these connections. But when it comes to choosing between plague and cholera, it is better to stick to current politics. Even the appearance of a change in monetary policy immediately triggers unrest in the financial markets, as the rise in bond yields a few weeks ago as a result of higher inflation rates showed. The ECB is not primarily concerned with the welfare of the financial markets. But severe turbulence there always has very negative consequences for the real economy – especially for the labor market. ECB boss Christine Lagarde will probably also assure this week after the council meeting that the ultra-loose monetary policy will be continued. In fact, as announced in March, the pace of bond purchases has increased significantly in recent weeks. The ECB regards this monetary policy as a blessing. But how much it will become a curse for the economy in the long term will only be able to be assessed in years.

An image of polluted air was taken on February 13, following the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, in Beijing, China. Photo: Reuters. On April 20, the International Energy Agency said that global CO2 emissions from electricity use will increase by nearly 5% this year. This suggests that an economic recovery from Covid-19 could bring many benefits, except for climate sustainability. The IEA’s 2021 Global Energy Assessment predicts that carbon dioxide emissions will rise to 33 billion tons this year, 1.5 billion tons higher than in 2020, the highest increase in more than a decade. IEA Executive Director Fatih Birol said this year’s increase in emissions this year could be increased by the recovery of coal use in the power sector, which is forecast to be particularly strong in Asia. It will also put pressure on governments to take action on climate change. US President Joe Biden will hold an online summit involving dozens of world leaders this week to discuss climate change ahead of global negotiations in Scotland at the end. this year. Last year, as electricity usage fell due to the Covid-19 pandemic, energy-related CO2 emissions fell 5.8% to 31.5 billion tons, after reaching a peak in 2019 of 33, 4 billion tons. The IEA’s annual review analyzed the latest country data from around the world, economic growth trends and new energy projects. Global energy demand is expected to grow 4.6 percent by 2021, led by developing economies, pushing it above 2019 levels, the report says. Demand for fossil fuels is on the rise in 2021, with both coal and gas rising above 2019 levels. IEA said more than 80% of its forecast for coal demand growth by 2021 will come from Asia, led by China. Coal use in the US and the European Union is also on the rise but will remain below pre-crisis levels.

Families should take the necessary safety measures to avoid unfortunate accidents to their children. According to the Westmead Children’s Hospital (CHW) in Australia, an average of 10 children are brought to CHW every year after falling from a balcony. Most of these children fall from their balconies, of which approximately 75% are under the age of five. Westmead Children’s Hospital provides care and treatment for 80,000 sick and injured children each year. This is the largest pediatric center in the state of New South Wales, Australia, with the capital city of Sydney; Child treatment in New South Wales, Australia and Pacific Rim countries. To protect children from unfortunate accidents from balconies, CHW has introduced balcony and railing safety recommendations. As defined by the CHW, a balcony is an area of ​​a building that is positioned higher than the ground. If the balcony is at a height of 1m above the ground, it must be surrounded (barrier) by a railing. A balcony railing as a guard or barrier is usually made of iron or wooden slats. Glass panels are also commonly used. How can children be injured at the balcony? Young children may get their heads, arms or legs stuck in between the gaps in the railing. Young children may fall over the gap between the railing if the distance between them is too large. The slightly older kids may slip or stumble over the balcony doorway and fall to the balcony floor. Children can also fall off the balcony if they can climb over the balcony railing. For example, horizontal bars on a railing can allow a child to climb over the railing. Items such as potted plants or outdoor furniture placed next to the railing can also be used as ladders for children to climb. According to CHW statistics, an average of 10 children are brought to this hospital every year after falling from a balcony. Most of these children fall from their balconies. Of the children brought to the CHW, approximately 75% are under the age of five, 40% occur in the summer, and three out of every five cases that are taken to the hospital are boys. During the period 2008-2018, 88 children were taken to CHW for treatment due to a fall from the balcony. A large number of those injuries are rated serious. Fall injuries, even from low heights, can be serious; “40% of fatal falls, among children under 15 years old in Australia, are from a height of less than 3 feet (91.44cm). Corridor windows on each floor are also potentially unsafe if precautions are not taken. How to prevent accidents from the balcony? Australia’s National Building Act requires balcony balustrades to be at least 1m high if the balcony is more than 1m above the surface below. Any space in the handrail should not allow a circular object 12.5cm in diameter to pass through. Where balconies are located more than 4 meters above the lower surface, the barriers must not have horizontal sections or resemble horizontal (climbable) sections between 15cm and 76cm above floor. According to CHW, to ensure the safety of children, families need to ensure that their family’s balcony or railing is at least 1m high and the distance between vertical bars is not wider than 12.5cm. Balcony balustrades should not have cross bars or the like that can allow young children to climb. All furniture, potted plants and other climbable objects should be kept away from the edge of the balcony. Adults should also beware of furniture that is light enough that children can pull to the edge of the balcony; Check the balustrades regularly to make sure they are in good condition; Supervise children while they are on the balcony and can lock the balcony doors to keep them out. In Vietnam, nowadays, one of the most popular ways to keep children safe from unfortunate balconies is to install safety nets. Especially in high-rise apartments, areas such as corridors of each floor, balconies, windows are places with potential risks of unsafety. The balcony safety net is made up of three main parts: the cable, two aluminum bars and the screws. The stainless steel core cables and plastic shells will be woven into a specialized aluminum bar system that is tightly mounted on the ceiling and railing. The usual distance between two cables is 5cm. This distance is enough to prevent children and many objects from getting through. The cost of installing safety net ranges from 150,000 VND to 180,000 VND / 1m2, depending on the installation area and materials. Answering questions of people related to the installation of safety cable nets in apartments, the Ho Chi Minh City Fire Department said: “The installation and supplementation of protective cable nets at the department The building does not affect the fire safety conditions of the building, however, these protective cable nets must be easily dismantled in case the fire department is approached. to serve the rescue and rescue work in case of fire and explosion incidents “. The safety net has a fairly simple structure, the installation cost is not too high and provides great support in ensuring safety for families in apartments or high-rise buildings, especially families with young children. Families should take the necessary safety measures to avoid unfortunate accidents to their children.

“This tuning is better for the current, unpredictable and ever-evolving threat of Covid-19. We continue to recommend that US citizens reconsider traveling abroad and postpone trips if possible, ”the ministry wrote in an email. In a media statement, the agency said the change does not “imply an assessment of the current health situation in a particular country”, but rather an advice for US citizens, in addition to information from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). America warns people not to move to 80% of the countries of the world. Photo: Reuters. In addition to reflecting on travel health notices issued by the CDC, US State Department advisers are looking at logistical factors, such as travel restrictions for US citizens. If the passenger decides to go to the countries with a level 4 warning, the State Department recommends that they carefully read the information about the risks of arrival. The warning comes as the number of US passengers continues to increase and many countries around the world begin to open their borders to Americans. On April 19, Greece started to allow US citizens to re-enter if they have a negative test certificate for the virus or have been vaccinated. United Airlines has also announced new flights to Greece, Iceland and Croatia, starting in July. Earlier this month, the CDC said fully vaccinated people could move, and the risk this group poses is quite low. Even so, the agency said it still discourages movement as the number of new Covid-19 infections is still increasing in the US and globally. On its website, the agency recommends that residents postpone international trips until everyone is fully vaccinated. The agency warned: “Passengers who are fully vaccinated are less likely to become infected and spread Covid-19. However, international migration is still potentially risky and even fully immunized people are at risk of catching new virus strains and spreading them to the community ”.

Send a petition to Ho Chi Minh City Women’s Newspaper, Ms. TBC – in Thu Dau Mot city, Binh Duong province – said that she had just been stolen by an object, appropriated more than 58 million dong in credit card. Ms. C. said, on March 2, she saw the phone displaying a message “unable to call”. The next day, she went to VNPT Binh Duong Business Center to check and rebuild a new sim, but the staff said that the sim card was not damaged, it was still working in two directions; “Cannot call” may be caused by phone malfunction. A fake message on the network operator calling for users to upgrade to a 4G sim. Phone subscribers need to be very wary of this kind of message – Photo: Provided by Competition and Consumer Protection Department On March 4, she asked to renew a new sim and a new one to work properly (listen, call). On March 12, when she accidentally read an article about the theft of money from her credit card, she immediately logged into her Fe Credit credit card account to check, and discovered that the money in the account was completely withdrawn in the form of purchase payment. Suspecting that her sim information was leaked during the sim remake process, Ms. H. came to complain at VNPT Binh Duong Business Center, just learned on March 2, there was a transaction to replace her sim card in Ho Chi Minh City. “I live in Binh Duong, have never made a transaction to replace my sim card in Ho Chi Minh City. VNPT Binh Duong Business Center also confirmed to only perform one SIM replacement transaction in Binh Duong. Thus, there is a fraudster who falsified my papers to perform a sim replacement transaction in Ho Chi Minh City and then appropriated property “- Ms. C. said. Not long ago, Dang Thanh Hai – in Ho Chi Minh City, the owner of a Viettel subscriber – suddenly blocked his mobile phone number, then was withdrawn 30 million dong from his bank account. Mr. Vu Minh Nhat – in Hanoi, the owner of a Mobifone subscriber – also had his sim stolen and then hacked into his bank account, losing 74.8 million dong via online payment. In the above two cases, the fraudster used a notarized copy of the identity card (ID card), went to the phone store (also the agent of the network operator) to register the procedure. In the case of Mr. Hai, the employee does not compare the copy of ID card with the original ID card; In the case of Nhat, the staff did not see the original ID card, nor did they require the latest contacts to verify. Recently, Thanh Hoa City Police, Thanh Hoa Province prosecuted seven subjects for counterfeiting ID cards according to customer information and then pasted their photos, to transaction points of network operators such as Viettel, Vinaphone to report the loss of their sim cards. suggest to redo the sim with the old number After being granted phone numbers from the carriers, the subjects used fake IDs and stolen phone numbers to make unsecured loan contracts from Fe Credit with loans from 20-70 million VND, appropriating a total of 500 million dong. The network operator can not be indifferent In the case of Ms. TBC, the representative of Vinaphone’s mobile phone network admitted, Vinaphone staff made a mistake in the process. Rather, in order to be reissued (in case of no sim), the subscriber must present his ID card, fill out an application form to reissue the sim, provide five outgoing and five dialed phone numbers. come. But the transaction staff in Ho Chi Minh City did not ask the replacement sim (the fraudster) to present ID card, just provide five phone numbers to call out and call. As a result, the fraudster easily obtained the sim of Mrs. C. and then appropriated more than 58 million dong in the credit card. Why does the fraudster know the five dialed and dialed numbers of the sim owner? According to Mr. Vo Do Thang – Director of Athens International Security and Network Management Training Center – the crook can use many of his own sims to phone, send text messages to the subscriber owner to call back and easily get the list. these calls. The situation of sim theft is happening more and more, but the network operators have not changed the sim re-issuance process as well as require transaction staff to be more cautious in re-issuing the sim, in order to ensure safety for customers. According to Mr. Vo Do Thang, the easy re-issuance of sim cards has created a gap for the fraudster who steals the sim. Employees often check for passport or not check, while counterfeiting ID is not difficult; Furthermore, they also have no inspection skills so it is difficult to detect tampering. “If the network operator takes one more step, such as issuing a password when issuing the sim for the first time, there is a secret question that only the subscriber knows, using artificial intelligence to detect the sim owner’s face … Having forged papers, it is not possible to steal the sim card ”- Mr. Vo Do Thang proposed. The representative of Vinaphone added that this company had collected information related to the theft of Ms. C.’s sim and transferred it to the police station to assist the victim. According to FeCredit Finance Company, because Mrs. C. was not at fault in this case, she is not responsible for the lost credit card amount. Why do I lose money in credit card when I lose my sim card? Most of the victims in the sim lost cases are stolen money by fraudsters by making online payments. Three factors are required to pay for online purchases: First, a mobile phone number – the credit card holder must register this number with the bank to authenticate transactions and receive bank notices. Second is the card number (the serial number printed on the front of the credit card). Third is the OTP authentication code (one-time password) sent via registered phone number with the bank. According to Mr. Vo Do Thang, the victim’s credit card number has been stolen by the fraud before, the sim theft is just the last step to steal money. After the sim is stolen, the fraudster will take the victim’s credit card number to pay online, then use the sim to receive the OTP code. Therefore, not everyone who loses their sim card will lose money in their credit card, in their bank account, only when they have revealed their credit card or account information before that the fraudster can steal the money. The victim’s credit card information may be exposed during previous online transactions by entering fraudulent websites, being infected with malicious code on the phone to steal card information or possibly due to The credit institution does not guarantee security. According to Mr. Vo Do Thang, criminals just need to steal credit card information, steal sim cards, and get OTP codes to steal money in the victim’s account shows that it is a great risk. Online payment processes of most credit institutions are still lax. “In this situation, the most important card users need to closely protect their card and account information, to avoid providing it to strangers. Absolutely do not visit strange websites or open attachments that are sent to unknown origin to avoid being installed with malicious code. Should be equipped with anti-virus software, anti-software with self-copy function (Trojan), keyboard manipulation monitoring programs (Keylogger), equipped with firewall protection … (According to Women HCMC)

The big screen and big lens are what attracts me the most about Mi 11 Ultra. A mobile phone always has some gimmicks, otherwise I don’t know what to say when I introduce it to others. And the huge rear lens design of Ultra is enough to become a hot topic for everyone to discuss.

The reason why it is so big is because Xiaomi has inserted the largest GN2 image sensor in the current mobile phone industry into the Ultra’s body. It is said that the bottom level is crushing people. At least in terms of area, Ultra’s image sensor is already unmatched. . The big bottom can capture more light, easily take brighter and clearer photos, and GN2 also has stronger focusing ability and night scene ability, of course 8K video is also supported. The three lenses are just right, at least in terms of composition, they are all lenses with strong practical value. Xiaomi also emphasized that these three lenses are all main camera-level lenses, thus ensuring stable image quality at different focal lengths.

The outsole, the large lens, and a small screen form the entire Ultra back lens module, which is recognizable in appearance. With a white ceramic body, it has both texture and beauty. Of course, different people have different opinions on appearance, and everyone has different aesthetics.

At the first glance of opening the camera, the picture in the preview box is basically the same as the picture seen by the human eye, but the color is slightly faint; the arrangement of various function buttons is clear, the upper part is the auxiliary function setting, and the lower part is the camera mode selection. Compared with the iPhone, the camera of Android phones will have many interesting functions built-in, such as beauty, movie mode, macro mode, tilt-shift shooting, etc. You can manually choose to turn off and on. Although it is a little complicated, it is also enhanced. Playability.

I pressed the shutter and took a few photos. The sudden delay caught me off guard. Obviously, the shutter has been pressed, but the camera hasn’t responded for a long time. This is an accident, but the frequency is not low, and it also makes the photo experience very fragmented. The same sense of fragmentation is also reflected in the multi-zoom switching. The rough switching without transition is really not elegant. Although it is innocuous, it can’t be called the performance of a flagship machine. This kind of software optimization problem does not only appear in the process of taking pictures, there will be some small bugs or inadequate optimization points in the whole process of using the machine, which will seriously affect the performance of Ultra’s flagship. Fortunately, these problems will be resolved later, and all that needs to be done now is to wait patiently.

In addition, there are several camera problems that bother me very much. Since these problems may be my own feelings, I will only list them.

1. The ultra-wide-angle distortion is serious, and the image quality loss is serious in the dark environment;

2. 5Difficult to focus, often pull the bellows;

3. The viewfinder is not displayed in full resolution. I am not sure about this. I personally feel that it is not as comfortable as an iPhone;

4. The color shift of the three lenses is large. I have said a lot of shortcomings, not because of deliberately embarrassing 11 Ultra, but because of giving enough expectations.

   There are also many good places, including:

5. The natural optimization effect brought by the outsole. You don’t need to turn on the portrait mode to take close-up shots, and you can get a good blur effect when you take a shot. This is a natural blur, not an effect that can be compared with computational photography.

   2, 2 and 5 the creative fun brought by zoom. I have expressed my love for multiple zooms many times, and many proofs are also taken with 2. The hard power of GN2 makes 2 still have good picture quality and tolerance even after the main camera is cropped. 5 and Periscope 10 are even more powerful tools for shooting distant scenes.

6. Later fun brought by software functions. Xiaomi’s photo album features are very rich, with a wealth of filters, as well as magical magic, you can also directly add stickers, text, frames, etc. to photos.

   Next are some samples taken with 11 Ultra for your reference.

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   After taking the picture, let’s talk about other things

   I really like the appearance of the 11 Ultra, especially the rear lens module design. Although the bulge is strong, it is also recognizable because of this. This is the 11 Ultra, and there is no doubt that it will not be mistaken.Of course, more people hate this design. On the one hand, it is visually uncoordinated. On the other hand, there are some inconveniences due to such a strong bulge. For example, there will be nowhere to put the hands close to the lens module when playing games.

   

   As for the weight, it is very heavy, but it doesn’t make me feel top-heavy, and the bulge of the lens module is just enough to let the fingers rest on the phone. It feels safe when standing on the subway and playing with the phone. The look and feel of the ceramic back cover is completely different from that of glass. It is gentle and delicate, just like holding an ex-girlfriend’s hand.

   

   All the buttons are integrated on the right side of the fuselage, which is quite convenient to use, but the size of such a large fuselage is definitely more difficult for girls to hold. The upper and lower frame design is very simple, and the dual-speaker sound quality is good, much better than the iPhone 12 Pro used before. Infrared transmitter is a function that iPhone will never experience. It is very convenient to control the air conditioner and TV daily.

   

   The screen is amazing

   Don’t forget the slogan of Xiaomi Mi 11-a good screen. This one-billion-color four-curved screen is one of the top-level screens that deserves it, not to mention that it also supports 2K+120Hz simultaneous opening. The screen display itself is a very subjective thing. Everyone has different preferences and tendencies, but this Xiaomi screen is one of the few screens that made me amazed at first sight, even better than this year’s OPPO and OnePlus’s screens. All amazed me.

   

   The screen display of Android phones often has a variety of color styles. I prefer the primary color mode of the 11 Ultra, which is the most natural display mode that restores the original color of the content. At the same time, 2K and 120Hz must be turned on, which brings silky high-definition enjoyment. I must also praise that Ultra’s automatic brightness function really makes me very satisfied, almost as smart and reliable as the iPhone.

   Of course, there are some regrets. The 11 Ultra does not support the original color display function similar to the iPhone, and the 120Hz high brush does not achieve global coverage like the Samsung S21 series. The curved screen still cannot avoid accidental touch, and the edge return is sometimes not so sensitive.

   

   On the back of the screen, I have not explored any practical application points, because I did not put a film on the phone screen, so I would not choose to buckle the phone on the desktop, so I can’t see the content on this small window.

   Battery life and heat

   The originally highly anticipated Snapdragon 888 can only be reminiscent of heat and high power consumption. Although it is not called a fire dragon, under many heavy load scenarios, the continuous performance output of 888 is indeed less stable than that of 865. (The above is extracted from the major evaluations).

   

   In my actual use, the glory of the king with the highest special effects turned on in a round can feel the heat emitted by the body in about 20 minutes. The heat is concentrated under the lens module, and the perception is more obvious. In addition, if you are a serious game enthusiast, you must choose 11 Ultra carefully, because the thick lens module seriously affects the feel of the game.

   

   What’s more disturbing than fever is battery life. Regardless of the large 5000mAh battery of 11 Ultra, it feels no different from Android 4000mAh mobile phones in daily use. The most exaggerated thing happened on the first working day after I got the phone. 40% of the electricity was consumed on the subway, and I only stayed on the subway for less than 40 minutes.

   In addition to the 2K+120Hz high-speed brush, 5G is also a typical power-hungry consumer, so I generally turn off the 5G network, and the battery life will be improved significantly. The problem of large power consumption has been improved to a certain extent in the update of version 12.10. The actual use time can be extended by about 1 hour, which also reflects that the road to system optimization of 11 Ultra is still very long.

   MIUI

   Good hardware must have good software to play its full strength. Obviously, 11 Ultra and MIUI do not cooperate well.

   Frame dropping, power consumption, heat generation, and system bugs such as screen cuts and dislocations and application crashes are not rare. Of course, I believe that Xiaomi will solve these problems, and pay attention to the stability of the system while adding new functions.

   In addition, I still have to complain about the proliferation of MIUI advertisements. I have not used MIUI for many years. I can’t accept that there are so many advertisements on my mobile phone. It is refreshing and clean by turning off one by one according to the operation guide given by cool friends.

   The system localization and convenience functions are very rich. The more important thing is that the notification function of MIUI makes me feel that it is almost the same as the iPhone experience. I can receive the notifications I want to receive, which is very reliable~

   MIUI is a system with historical accumulation and unique thinking. After 11 Ultra updates the 12.5 system, another article will introduce it in detail~

   to sum up

   In my opinion, the 11 Ultra is not a regular digital flagship. It has a bold design and powerful hardware configuration. Even if it is a little exaggerated, it has enough qualifications. On the road to hit the high-end, Xiaomi tried many times but there was no strong response. Although the 11 Ultra has taken off violently, it is a bit insufficient from the current second-hand transaction price.

   I have been jumping horizontally between iPhone and Android phones many times. What impressed me is the rich functions and imaginative appearance and configuration of Android phones. However, in terms of system stability, Android phones have never been able to do the same as the iPhone. Reliable, just like the 11 Ultra camera, the shutter response delay problem still exists after several system updates. Therefore, on the basis of rapid update and iteration, Android phones should slow down appropriately so that the software and hardware can be better matched, so as to be able to exert the strongest strength.

   

   At present, it seems that I will continue to use 11 Ultra for a period of time. On the one hand, this multi-fold telephoto really brings me a lot of fun in taking pictures, and on the other hand, because the value of 11 Ultra has depreciated so quickly that it can’t be replaced. The Samsung S21 Ultra I originally intended. I hope that during this time, Xiaomi can strengthen the optimization of the system, especially the expected MIUI12.5, which is the match that Android Light should have.

Specifically, over the past several months, representatives of the US administration led by President Joe Biden have repeatedly threatened Russia that it will pay a “very high price” for the situation in the Donbass.

Moscow responded to Washington on warning of ‘it will cost money for the Donbass’. Illustrative image / Reporter

Before the above developments, Moscow gave an official response. Specifically, according to Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov, Washington’s aforementioned statements are unacceptable. Russia will continue to defend the self-proclaimed republics of the Donbass, as well as the interests of its Russian-speaking residents, and threats from the other hemisphere of the planet will only convince Moscow of the correctness of the planet. my movement.

“They talked about a high price, but they never specified. What they have done so far, first we have done enough research, second we have adapted to this” …

Ryabkov noted with regret that the current Ukrainian authorities and their Western patrons have concluded that the field situation is not helping to become more positive.

In addition, Deputy Minister Ryabkov mentioned the fact that the military alliance of NATO, the United States and a number of other countries are deliberately promoting Kiev to confront the Russian Federation, assisting Ukraine in increasing military pressure. declaration in the East.

In related developments, the NATO Air Force has deployed more fighter jets to countries close to Ukraine as a readiness move for the worst case scenario.

Speaking to the defense subcommittee of the European Parliament in Brussels, Minister Taran warned that Moscow could attack Ukraine to secure water supplies for the annexed Crimean peninsula.

Besides, Mr. Tahan said, does not rule out the possibility that Russian forces in Crimea could “carry out major military provocations” in 2021, but he did not provide immediate evidence for this hypothesis.

Regarding developments, on the same day, the SBU national security agency of Ukraine announced that it was conducting a large-scale “anti-terror” exercise in the Kherson region near Crimea. SBU’s announcement said units of the Ukrainian armed forces together with police and border guards participated in the exercise.

The announcement emphasized: “The key strategic targets of key infrastructure in the Kherson region are being tightly controlled … These are seaport areas, power supply facilities, airports, demand and gas production plants “.

Earlier, the Ukrainian military posted a video, on a rock music scene, showing the country’s tanks deployed in formation with soldiers loaded and fired for artillery during a pushback drill. the attack of tanks and infantry infiltrated the defensive area near the Crimea border.

The drill comes a day after US President Joe Biden telephoned Russian President Vladimir Putin to discuss Russian troop reinforcement in Crimea and near eastern Ukraine, among other US concerns.

On April 10, Real Madrid defeated Barca in a super classic match. It was also the match that Zidane had to use a series of “B class” players such as Alvaro Odriozola, Isco, Marcelo, Eder Militao.

Answering the reporters, the French legend could not hide his anxiety. He is afraid the home team “runs out of battery”. After the super classic match, Real Madrid had to move to Merseyside to meet Liverpool in the quarter-finals of the Champions League second leg.

Distracted Zidane?

Zidane’s real suffered many physical and mental losses from the beginning of the season. A ruthless storm of trauma swept the headquarters of the club, causing the team to lose people consecutively.

“Los Blancos” shuffled it. Each time, Zidane received criticism. He was also questioned by President Perez after a bad start in the Champions League group stage.

Amidst the storm, the fate “Zizou” is still saved. Stars like Karim Benzema, Luka Modric or Toni Kroos … have “loaded” all the best qualities to pull the teacher out of the quagmire.

However, that also does not help the French legend get rid of skepticism. At one point, everything seemed to shut down for Zidane. He had to “hide” in the dressing room.

The relationship between the French rulers and President Perez is said to be no longer salty. That partly comes from the controversy related to central defender Sergio Ramos.

The Real Madrid star informed Zidane that he had to undergo surgery and needed 6-8 weeks of rest. The French strategist is said to have not communicated with the club.

The move of “Zizou” further divided his relationship with other high-ranking figures. At that time, everyone said that the former “Les Bleus” player was very passionate about the team.

Immediately, a warning bell about Zidane’s future rang out in the Bernabeu courtyard. The French legend still has a contract with the club until June 2022, but that does not guarantee anything.

During his first term at Real Madrid, “Zizou” left the club before the binding effect ended. That was 2018, not long after the Champions League final.

Zidane and President Perez once existed a close relationship, but there was a time when the most powerful man representing Madrid “fell in love” with captain of the team.

President Perez is even said to probe the situation of coaches like Max Allegri, Antonio Conte, Julian Nagelsmann and Joachim Loew … If Real Madrid slips, a ruthless decision could be made by the club’s super-head. given.

Zidane understands that. In recent days, thoughts in this ruler have started to shake. After winning Liverpool in the quarterfinals of the first leg of the Champions League, the French legend said: “Back to leading Juventus? That place is still important to me.

But now I’m coaching the best football team in the world and I feel lucky. ”

Zidane always has plans B. In January, before the match against Celta Vigo, former Juventus star said: “You can sign a 10-year contract here (Real Madrid – PV), but tomorrow you can leave completely. On the contrary, you can sign a year and stay for a long time.

El Confidencial for that “Zizou” mind began to flutter. The 48-year-old strategist no longer holds a firm stance. Specifically, Zidane is looking for another opportunity if the club no longer needs him.

It is not easy for Real Madrid to find a “copy” of Zidane on the coaching chair. Photo: Getty.

The value of Zidane

At Real Madrid, cruelty is everywhere. The world doesn’t stop for one person either. Zidane is very good, but not bigger than the team. Outside of President Perez’s office, many candidates were willing to wait for the opportunity.

Zidane is unique. On ESPN, journalist Mark Ogden once described the excitement of “Zizou” in that he knows how to solve problems. On the field, the French captain always finds the formula to win.

The French strategist has done that. From Madrid to Anfield, Zidane’s Real Madrid subdued Liverpool and Barca, respectively. “Los Blancos” did that even when Cristiano Ronaldo left the club, famous midfield pair Sergio Ramos and Raphael Varane were sidelined for different reasons.

Zidane also has a close relationship and is in regular contact with Kylian Mbappe, the target of President Perez. El Confidencial revealed “Zizou” persuaded his compatriot striker to go to Madrid, and Mbappe fell in love.

Recently, France Football said Mbappe refused to renew his contract with PSG. He wants to wear a Real Madrid shirt “at request from Zidane”. Kylian Mbappe even refused 3 offers to extend the contract that the Parc des Princes team made.

If Mbappe goes to Real Madrid, it is because he wants to work with Zidane. A few days ago, President Perez was re-elected and will run the club until 2025. The most powerful man in the team will have many projects to do.

The Madrid representative’s plan could be broken if Zidane is no longer there. Up to now, the French legend has not yet confirmed whether he will continue to stick or break up with “Los Blancos”. This worries President Perez.

On the morning of April 15, Zidane put on a patchwork, if not the worst, squad to face Liverpool at Anfield. At the end of the match, the representative of Madrid completed the goal when they won a 0-0 draw, the score was enough to help the club reach the semi-finals.

Zidane humbly celebrates, and that is also a message to President Perez. Even without a really powerful squad, Real Madrid still advanced in the Champions League and was part of the race to win the La Liga championship.

If President Perez handed Mbappe striker Mbappe to Zidane, Real Madrid would have created even more interesting things. For the most powerful man in the team, “Zizou” is the club’s priceless treasure. Keeping this military leader, the team is also close to owning Mbappe.

Casemiro is the best Real match against Liverpool The Brazilian defensive midfielder possesses impressive statistics on the day Zinedine Zidane’s team eliminated Liverpool from the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

Recently, medical examination and treatment facilities have received many complications after cosmetic surgery for the eye area. At the National Hospital of Dermatology, a 29-year-old girl in Hanoi came to see her with a skewed eye, scarred and slanted eyes.

TS-BS. Nguyen Huu Quang, Deputy Head of Plastic Surgery and Rehabilitation Department, Central Dermatology Hospital, said that this patient performed eye opening technique at a newly opened salon that she happened to known through advertising on facebook.

After the surgery, the dream of big round eyes suddenly disappeared, instead this girl saw herself in the mirror and was alarmed by the scarring of the lower eyelid, the corner of the eye was in a skewed state.

Eye opening is intended to create accents for the eyes, but those inexperienced in opening the corner of the eye will make the eyelids turn upside down, and the slanted eyes cannot close the eyes. The widening of the eye angle is only a procedure but still needs to be done in medical facilities and because doctors must have expertise in plastic surgery, not in spas by staff. each other’s self-study and then implementation will risk causing complications-BS. Quang recommends.

Similarly, another case came to Ophthalmology Department, Military Central Hospital 108, in which the left eye was aching and the eyesight was severely reduced. The doctor diagnosed the patient with severe uveitis. During an ultrasound, doctors discovered a suspicious image of a small foreign object in the vitreous chamber.

Taking careful history, the patient said that he had previously implanted only the face and eyelids under the eyes at a beauty facility. During the course of treatment, doctors removed a segment of 4-0 catgut about 10 mm long. The patient’s eyes stopped stimulating, his vision recovered.

According to TS-BS. Hoang Thanh Tuan, Plastic Surgery-Aesthetic Center, National Burn Institute: The purpose of implantation is only on the face and lower lids to rejuvenate the skin. When only transplanted into the subcutaneous fat layer or the deep dermis will have the effect of proliferating fibroblasts, collagen helps to increase skin thickness and firm skin, fade shallow wrinkles, shrink pores.

At the same time, the transplanted skin will only become firmer, helping to lift structures under the skin to help a younger face. Implantation only stimulates vascular growth factors that increase metabolism, making the skin pink and radiant.

However, this may be because an operator other than a physician has inserted a thread (this should not be used in rejuvenation) through the sclera into the vitreous chamber. When the foreign body appears in the vitreous chamber, there will be an allergic reaction, the appearance of inflammatory cells in the iris, the eyelid, the chorum causing the intraocular infection – total uveitis.

The release of many inflammatory cells in the vitreous causes opaque to the transparent environment of the eye that the patient will see blurred vision. Inflammatory cells, chemical mediators will stimulate the V-nerve in the eye area, causing pain very uncomfortable for the patient.

The woman fell into a condition that her eyes were always backward, unable to close after eyelid surgery (TL photo)

At the same time, the inflammatory process to create fibrin, blocking the anterior chamber or the iris sticking to the front of the vitreous body, obstructing the circulation of the aqueous humor, causing glaucoma, causing pain for the patient. If not handled in time, it will damage the optic nerve causing blindness.

Therefore, to avoid unfortunate accidents that can occur in the process of transplanting the special eye area around the eyes to rejuvenate, women need to choose reputable establishments, use only high quality products that are certified. by safety quality accreditation organizations-BS.

Before that, a woman over 50 years old in Binh Duong, after having her eyelid cut off and being “corrected” by the cosmetic facility by patching, her eyes became deformed, even in a state of rolled up, exposing the lower eyelid mucosa, making the eyes always in a state of redness, burning.

TS-BS. Nguyen Phan Tu Dung (working at a cosmetic hospital in Ho Chi Minh City) shared that the patient came to the examination in the state that the eyelid was operated again and again, the lower eyelid was patched up like tire patch. After surgery, the patient’s eye was increasingly exposed due to the lower eyelid being pulled down, this facility cut the corner of the inner eye to close the eyelid but failed.

In addition, the patient is placed by this facility threaded from the forehead running down the nose to pull the eye skin up. After more than a year of surgery, this part is still intact, causing the patient’s forehead to appear a large triangular scar like a knife cut.

In this case, the treatment is difficult because the eye has been patched up too many times, the scars are located inside. To treat, doctors will first treat the front eye roll to reduce inflammation in the patient by lifting the muscles of the outer cheekbones and closing the angle of the inner eyelid cartilage muscle. After that, patients need a minimum of 6 months to 1 year to recover before entering other cosmetic surgeries.

The eyes are not only “windows to the soul” but in the old saying “rich with two eyes”. Therefore, when wishing to beautify, everyone should be alert when choosing cosmetic facilities, avoiding money lost, handicapped because the technology of re-surgery of the eye after complications is relatively difficult and complicated. Depending on the person’s location and how the eye condition needs to be improved, the doctor will prescribe when it is appropriate to re-operate.

Before the excitement of virtual money, the virtual money market, also known as electronic money in Vietnam, became active again when investors realized that this currency had promising potential. As can be seen, the appearance of Pi, a new cryptocurrency and other virtual currency units in early 2021 has attracted a large number of new investors to join.

In Vietnam, virtual money in general and currencies like Bitcoin, Litecoin … in particular are still not recognized and are not legal means of payment. The issuance, supply and use of virtual currency are prohibited acts and will be sanctioned according to the Government’s Decree No. 96/2014 / ND-CP on sanctioning of administrative violations in the monetary and banking sector. Criminal Code 2015 (amended and supplemented). Previously, the State Bank of Vietnam had warned many times that investing in virtual money caused great risks to investors.

Unpredictable risks

According to market research Statista, Vietnam has the 2nd highest cryptocurrency usage rate in the world, after Nigeria. With millions of dollars traded every month, crypto exchanges are a good prey for cybercriminals.

But the downside of the coin’s development has actually created a series of risks of “junk” virtual money investment channels appearing more and more.

Worryingly, virtual money “trash” tends to increase sharply and is “sucking blood” of investors. Specifically, with an attractive offer of great profits from virtual currency exchanges, investors massively poured money into “junk” virtual currency floors and then after a short time, the floor suddenly collapsed, when Then new investors fall back to be deceived. More sophisticated, when many cryptocurrency exchanges have “lured” investors to buy real virtual money, then use these virtual currencies to buy back virtual money “trash” “In order to make high profits and then the investors lose all their investment money.

However, according to the experts, it is very difficult to sanction fraud on these type of exchange owners. Because, if investors contribute with real money to the property, it can also be sanctioned, but if you contribute virtual money – a currency that is not an asset or a means of payment, there is no legal status, so it is not. there are grounds for punishment

Chris Connell, Managing Director of Kaspersky Asia Pacific said: “The development of cryptocurrencies is an integral part of digital transformation in the region and in Vietnam. Therefore, we encourage individuals accessing these financial technologies to have a basic knowledge of security measures to keep their cryptocurrencies safe.

Specifically, before investing, learn about cryptocurrency exchanges. These platforms provide the means for buying and selling virtual currency units as there are more than 500 exchanges. Do research, read feedback and talk to experienced investors before going any further.

After buying cryptocurrencies, investors need to know how to choose a digital wallet to keep. Because there are different types of wallets, each has different benefits, technical requirements and security. Therefore, players should research hosting options before investing.

However, according to the warning of financial expert – securities Phan Dung Khanh, Investment Advisory Director of Maybank Kim Eng Securities, do not put all your capital in Bitcoin just because it is the only name you know. There are thousands of options and it’s best to divide your investments by a few different units of money. Even so, cryptocurrencies are a volatile market, so if their investment ability or mental health cannot withstand the volatility, cryptocurrencies may not be a wise investment.

In particular, always uphold security when trading virtual money. Ideally, home trading is safer than using a public network, but you need proper security. For starters, it’s a good idea to change your router’s default password because the root password is usually the same for all routers of the same model, making your Wi-fi vulnerable to attack. In any case, it is best to do all electronic transactions over an encrypted VPN channel, which will add an extra layer of security.
