The interior is still old-fashioned, but is it worth buying a Toyota Flanders with many shortcomings?

Mr. Wang bought a Toyota Fenglanda (parameter picture) two months ago, which is mainly used for commuting to work and going out to play in his spare time. Because his father still drives a Toyota Camry at home, it has been used satisfactorily for several years, and the whole family has always had a good impression of the Toyota brand. Coupled with the limited budget, the appearance of Toyota Fenglanda is also in line with Mr. Wang’s aesthetics, so the car selection process of Mr. Wang is not too complicated. At present, this car has been driven for 3,000 years.

Advantage one:Power and fuel consumption.

The 7.3L naturally aspirated engine carried by Toyota Flanders has a maximum power of 171 HP and a maximum torque of 205 Nm, matching with a CVT gearbox that can simulate 10 speeds. The reliability of this power combination used in many higher-end Toyota models is beyond doubt. Although the power is not "explosive" and not strong, there is not much problem in daily driving, and the advantages are still driving smoothness and low fuel consumption. The owner’s current comprehensive fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is about 7.

Advantage 2:Trunk space.

The length of the vehicle is 4485mm, and the wheelbase is 2640 mm. The legroom in the vehicle is not much different from that of competitors of the same level. It is at a normal level, and naturally it is not very spacious. However, the trunk space of Toyota Flanders is quite large, with considerable height and depth. In the conventional mode, the volume is 438L, which is enough to meet the luggage loading needs of a car driver and the placement of some large items in daily life.

After talking about the advantages, let’s talk about a few disadvantages.

Disadvantage 1:Interior.

As far as design is concerned, the interior is exactly the same as the current Toyota Corolla, which is not only lacking in fashion sense, but also somewhat crude. The owner’s requirements for the interior are not particularly high. If many young people of the same age pursue the trend, this interior design alone is enough to "persuade" many consumers, plus the materials used are quite cheap, and both the visual perception and the touch feel are unsatisfactory.

Disadvantage 2:Configuration.

The owner bought the luxury version of CVT, a mid-equipped model, with a landing price of 160,000 yuan+.The configuration of the vehicle can only be said to be what it should have at this price, but some of the missing configurations should not be. For example, even the basic parking radar is not equipped, the steering wheel is made of plastic, and the car system supports fewer functions, which is a bit like "old man machine". The configurations such as car networking, OTA upgrade and voice recognition control system only appear on higher-equipped models.

Disadvantage 3:Suspension.

Toyota Flanders chassis is equipped with front McPherson independent suspension and rear torsion beam non-independent suspension, which is obviously not conscience enough for this price model, and it has also attracted a lot of criticism. The performance of the vehicle in comfort is really ordinary. When passing through speed bumps and potholes, the rear passengers generally reflect that it is hard and the filtering effect on vibration is not good.

Write at the end:Generally speaking, Toyota Flananda is a model with distinct advantages and disadvantages. If you are a consumer who is running for Toyota’s "logo" and stable and durable quality, the inexpensive Toyota Flananda is still good. Of course, the premise is that you can accept the shortcomings of low configuration, old-fashioned interior and "scooter".

The fifth day of Xi’ an city’s blockade: the fifth round of full-scale nucleic acid was launched, and the prevention and control measures continued to escalate.

  According to the latest data released by Shaanxi Provincial Health and Health Commission on December 27th, from December 9th to 26th, the province reported 651 confirmed cases in COVID-19, of which 635 cases appeared in Xi ‘an. On the 25th and 26th, for two consecutive days, the number of newly confirmed cases in Xi ‘an exceeded 100 in a single day … This ancient city with a population of 10 million is being hit by the COVID-19 epidemic.

  According to the latest news from the COVID-19 Epidemic Prevention and Control Headquarters in Xi ‘an, Xi ‘an started a new round of all-round nucleic acid screening at 12: 00 on the 27th-this is the fifth round of all-round nucleic acid testing since Xi ‘an officially announced the first round of all-round nucleic acid testing on December 19th.

  In the past few days, Xi ‘an’s prevention and control policies have also been continuously strengthened and upgraded. On the 23rd, Xi ‘an began to implement the "Eleven Measures to Strengthen Prevention and Control", which required the city’s residential units to close their management and suspend business in non-essential places. From 0: 00 on the 27th, the city’s epidemic prevention and control measures were further strengthened.

  Up to now, there are 1 high-risk area and 115 medium-risk areas in Xi ‘an. The battle against the epidemic continues.

  A large number of confirmed cases were screened out by multiple rounds of total nucleic acid testing.

  According to the news of the Office of Xi ‘an Epidemic Prevention and Control Headquarters on December 26th, Xi ‘an will usher in a new round of all-round nucleic acid testing at 12 o’clock on the 27th. The Paper (www.thepaper.cn) combed and found that this is the fifth round of total nucleic acid after the current outbreak in Xi ‘an.

  On the afternoon of 19th, the press conference on the prevention and control of epidemic situation in COVID-19, Xi ‘an announced that all the staff in Xi ‘an had been tested for nucleic acid. Since then, on December 21st, 23rd and 25th, Xi ‘an has carried out three rounds of all-round nucleic acid testing. At present, the government has only publicly disclosed the relevant data of the second round of nucleic acid screening in Covid-19: in this round of testing, 127 cases of nucleic acid positive persons were found.

  Several rounds of full-scale nucleic acid development have played a role in finding out the epidemic situation. The data showed that among the 155 newly confirmed cases in Xi ‘an from 0: 00 to 24: 00 on December 25th, 56 cases were found in nucleic acid screening, accounting for 36.1%. From 0: 00 to 24: 00 on 26th, among the 150 newly confirmed cases in Xi ‘an, 59 cases were found in nucleic acid screening, accounting for 39.3%.

  Zhang Yi, director of the Institute of Infectious Disease Prevention and Control of Shaanxi Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said in an interview with Shaanxi Daily that there are two main reasons for the recent sudden increase in cases. First, the intensity of nucleic acid detection has been increased, the coverage has been increased, and the detection frequency has been increased, thus more cases have been discovered; The other is that there have been some new punctate outbreaks, such as Photoelectric Valley and JD.COM Logistics Park, and many cases have appeared in a short time. There is no need for the public to worry too much about the rapid increase of confirmed cases in the short term. At this stage, the more you find through nucleic acid testing, the better, which is also the purpose of nucleic acid testing. We have quickly taken control measures for these punctate outbreaks, and with the implementation of containment measures, the epidemic situation will tend to be flat on the whole.

  In addition, at the epidemic conference held in Xi ‘an on 26th, the person in charge also said that through many rounds of large-scale nucleic acid screening, most hidden cases and community-infected people can be found quickly, which is beneficial to realize early detection, early isolation and early blocking, and minimize the possibility of transmission. This is the dual effect of Xi ‘an’s blockade and large-scale screening. There may be more reported cases in the next few days of nucleic acid screening, reminding citizens and friends not to panic.

  Strengthen and upgrade prevention and control measures.

  With the increasing epidemic situation in Xi ‘an, the prevention and control measures have been strengthened and upgraded many times.

  On December 15th, a press conference was held in Xi ‘an, and relevant departments advised citizens not to leave the city unless necessary. It is proposed that people in medium and high-risk areas and their districts and counties should strictly restrict travel; Personnel from other districts and counties in the city where the medium and high-risk areas are located do not have to travel unless necessary. If they really need to travel, they must hold a negative nucleic acid test certificate within 48 hours. All people from other provinces who return to Xi ‘an need to provide negative proof of nucleic acid test within 48 hours.

  On December 18th, the control was upgraded. It is clear that all personnel in this city who do not really need to leave the city must hold a negative nucleic acid test certificate within 48 hours. Bar dance halls, sports and fitness, theaters, mahjong halls, script killing, bathing and other indoor entertainment venues are closed. Retail pharmacies suspend the sale (including online sales) of antipyretic, antitussive, antiviral and antibacterial drugs to the public.

  On the 20th, primary and secondary schools and kindergartens in the city were closed. Citizens need to hold a negative report of nucleic acid test within 48 hours when they go to work.

  Starting from the 22nd, people who leave Xi ‘an by bus from Xi ‘an Railway Station and Xi ‘an North Railway Station must not only hold the negative certificate of 48-hour nucleic acid test and the green code of one code, government code and itinerary code, but also the personnel of party and government organs and state-owned enterprises and institutions need to leave Xi ‘an with the necessary official letter issued by the unit and the examination and approval procedures of the main person in charge; Other personnel also need to hold an official letter issued by the street office, township and the main person in charge of examination and approval procedures. In addition, the city’s long-distance passenger lines were suspended.

  From 0: 00 on the 23rd, Xi ‘an officially implemented eleven measures to strengthen prevention and control. In particular, it is mentioned that all communities (villages) and units in the city are required to implement closed management, and the citizens generally live at home. Every family can assign one family member to go out to purchase daily necessities every two days, and other family members generally do not go out except to participate in epidemic prevention and control, get sick and seek medical treatment, and are in urgent need of work.

  From 0: 00 on the 27th, Xi ‘an further strengthened the city’s epidemic prevention and control measures. Suspended the previous "two-day-one-out" purchase policy. It is required that all residents do not leave home or gather except for participating in nucleic acid sampling as required. Residents in the prevention area can only implement the original purchase regulations after completing a new round of nucleic acid sampling and showing negative results.

  The epidemic prevention and control headquarters of COVID-19 in Xi ‘an said that after the completion of this round of nucleic acid screening on 27th, the control measures will be adjusted according to the test results.

  Fully protect the lives of citizens.

  Since the implementation of the closed management of residential quarters on the 23rd, some citizens in Xi ‘an have been worried about their daily life: Will the price of living materials increase? How to ensure the treatment of daily diseases?

  Zhang Fenghu, deputy director of the Office of Xi ‘an Epidemic Prevention and Control Headquarters and deputy secretary-general of the municipal government, previously publicly stated, "We will further improve the monitoring, analysis and early warning mechanism of the’ vegetable basket’ market and price, and closely track and analyze market supply and demand and price changes. Severely crack down on illegal activities such as driving up prices, hoarding, making and selling fake goods in key medical prevention and control materials and daily necessities. Strengthen the visits of people with difficulties in life, and timely include eligible objects in the scope of assistance to ensure basic living. Street communities and units should grasp the medical needs of special people in a timely manner, provide basic health services first, and help those who really need to go out for medical treatment with personal protection. "

  The Paper noted that in terms of price protection, the Xi ‘an Municipal Market Supervision Administration has investigated and dealt with more than ten illegal incidents, which involved price gouging or unclear pricing. In a supermarket, the price of cabbage increased by 2 yuan per catty within two days, and it was fined 50,000 yuan.

  For some patients with special diseases, Xi ‘an has also taken corresponding safeguard measures. For example, among the management personnel, patients with chronic renal insufficiency (uremia) need hemodialysis (hemofiltration) urgently. At present, Xi ‘an High-tech Hospital has been designated as the designated hospital for hemodialysis (hemofiltration) of isolated control personnel in the near future.

  Yang Baoli, the second-level inspector of Shaanxi Provincial Health and Health Commission, said that he would spare no effort to ensure the urgent need for dialysis for patients with chronic renal insufficiency (uremia) in isolation and control areas during the epidemic prevention and control period, so that patients with isolation and control can be treated in time.

  According to Xi ‘an Daily, Xi ‘an has arranged a number of hospitals, such as the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi ‘an Jiaotong University and the First Hospital of Xi ‘an, to provide online consultation services for citizens to meet their medical needs.

  In addition, in order to protect the public’s health and life safety, the Xi ‘an Epidemic Prevention and Control Headquarters decided to carry out a comprehensive disinfection in Xi ‘an from 18: 00 on the 26th.

Jinan sentenced the largest gutter oil case in China.

  At 10: 40 on the 7th, Zhu Chuanfeng, Zhu Chuanqing and Chuanbo Zhu stood in the dock of the Fifth Trial Court of Jinan Intermediate People’s Court. On behalf of the collegial panel, the presiding judge pronounced that Zhu Chuanfeng was sentenced to death, suspended for two years, deprived of political rights for life, and confiscated all his personal property. Zhu Chuanqing and Chuanbo Zhu were convicted of producing and selling toxic substances and harmful food; He was convicted of falsely issuing special invoices for value-added tax, and was sentenced to life imprisonment, deprived of political rights for life, and confiscated all personal property. At this point, the first trial of the case of Shandong Zhu brothers making waste oil, which had caused a sensation in the whole country, had a result.

  crime

  one

  Zhu’s three brothers work together to process and sell waste oil.

  In March, 2001, Zhu Chuanfeng, Zhu Chuanqing and Chuanbo Zhu brothers jointly invested and registered the Guoliugou Village Oil Factory in Kongcun Town, Pingyin County, engaged in the processing and sales of animal oil. In March 2007, three people registered and established Chengnan Xingcai Oil Factory in Kongcun Town, Pingyin County, engaged in the acquisition, processing and sales of biodiesel and animal oil. In March, 2009, three people invested with Du Hengqiang, the brother-in-law of Zhu Chuanqing, as the legal representative, and registered and established a developed company, engaged in the production and sales of industrial oils such as biodiesel, oleic acid, stearic acid and plant asphalt.

  Since 2006, they have successively purchased a large number of raw materials such as hogwash fat and clay from Shandong, Beijing, Jiangsu and Xinjiang to produce waste oil. Knowing that others will pass off the gutter oil they bought as cooking oil, they still sold the gutter oil to 17 cooking oil business households, including Liaocheng Changquan Cereals and Oils Industry Co., Ltd. in Shandong Province, Jinan Qianmen Business Center, Jinan Dazhong Cereals and Oils Co., Ltd., Shanxi Houma Tiancang Cereals and Oils Co., Ltd., Yahui Cereals and Oils Distribution Department in Sanfeng Road, Baoding City, Hebei Province, and Yongxing Yinghua Edible Oil Retail Department in Jianli County, Hubei Province, with a total sales amount of 52,418,544.2 yuan. During the production and sales of waste oil, Zhu Chuanfeng is responsible for the overall work of the company, Zhu Chuanqing is in charge of salesmen, and is responsible for raw material procurement and product promotion, while Chuanbo Zhu is responsible for product sales and company finance.

  crime

  2

  In 10 years, falsely issued VAT invoices of more than 13.35 million yuan.

  In the course of operation, the developed company funded by the Zhu brothers had to issue a special invoice for output value-added tax to the other party when they sold the oleic acid and stearic acid products because there was no special invoice for input value-added tax in the purchased hogwash fat. In order to offset the tax, Zhu Chuanqing offered to help Ma Yuwang (a self-employed household in edible oil, which was handled separately) to issue a special invoice for input value-added tax.

  After Ma Yuwang agreed, the developed company signed a false contract with the other party in the name of the developed company in the absence of actual purchase and sale business with 11 companies including Shandong Yu Wang Industrial Co., Ltd., Shanghai Yihai Trading Co., Ltd. Shandong Branch and Qingdao Bohai Agricultural Development Co., Ltd., and asked the other party to issue special VAT invoices to the developed company. During the ten years from 2001 to 2011, 53 special invoices for input value-added tax were obtained for developed companies, with a total amount of 13,353,312.68 yuan, a total tax amount of 1,735,930.72 yuan and a total price tax of 15,089,243.4 yuan.

  The other seven defendants were also sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment ranging from five to fifteen years and fined accordingly.

  On-site direct attack

  Family members listened to the verdict under the stage.

  On the morning of the 7th, in the gallery of the Fifth Trial Court of Jinan Intermediate People’s Court, more than 20 spectators waited for the judge’s verdict with a dignified expression. When Zhu Chuanfeng and others entered the court, they turned their heads from time to time to look at the audience, looking for the family members under the stage. A staff member of Jinan Intermediate People’s Court said that with permission, Zhu Chuanfeng and others’ families can enter the court to attend the verdict. With the verdict of the presiding judge, the reporter heard crying from the audience gallery, and several ladies hid their faces and cried. When Zhu Chuanfeng and others were taken to court by the bailiff, a young woman shouted "Dad" at the trial seat and then burst into tears.

  [Case Review]

  Pingyin country, known as the tradition of operating oil mills. In 2001, Zhu’s three brothers in Guoliugou Village, Kongcun Town, Pingyin County began to engage in oil refining business. According to insiders, Zhujiajian started the gutter oil business in Pingyin County the earliest, and other places followed suit. Since 2009, more than 1,500 tons of waste oil with a case value of more than 13 million yuan have been produced and sold to more than 60 grain and oil enterprises-this is the "black record" of Jinan Fada Oil Industry Co., Ltd.

  On July 20th, 2011, according to the clues, Jinan Public Security Bureau filed an investigation on the case of the company’s production and sale of waste oil, and arrested 16 people involved in the case, including Zhu Chuanfeng, the general manager of the company, and knocked out the largest criminal group that produced and sold waste oil in Jinan in one fell swoop, becoming the first major case of production and sale of waste oil successfully detected in Shandong.

  On March 3, 2009, the three Zhu brothers registered and established Jinan Fada Oil Industry Co., Ltd., whose registered business scope is biodiesel processing and sales. Subsequently, the Zhu brothers’ industry grew bigger and bigger. A villager once described it as follows: A trailer with a length of 20 to 30 meters transporting waste oil raw materials from other places is full of diesel barrels, and there can be at most five or six cars a day, coming down from the intersection of Xiaozhi Expressway nearby, traveling 10 kilometers northbound along National Highway 105, and heading straight for Zhujia Factory at the east end of Guoliugou Village. Tankers who come from other places to pull oil usually come at night or Saturday and Sunday. Among the oil trucks, villagers saw cars in Nanjing, Jiangsu, Jining, Shandong and other places, while an edible oil factory in Tai ‘an came in a few days. In the countryside, it was once said that Zhujiajian could earn 200,000 to 300,000 yuan a day.

  The raw material oil of gutter oil, known as "crude oil" in the industry, is mostly refined from the meal waste pulled out from the restaurant trench, and some of it is refined from the discarded oil of fried food and animal fat. The site of refining crude oil is generally extremely dirty, and what the Zhujiajian brothers did was to buy crude oil and process red oil. According to a boss who has processed it, in 2011, the "crude oil" acquired was more than 5,000-6,000 yuan per ton. The main product of gutter oil factory is refined oil, which is called "red oil" in the industry. The price is about 8,300 yuan, the production loss per ton of "red oil" is about 800 yuan, and the production cost is about 600 yuan. Processing 1 ton of "crude oil" can earn about 500 to 600 yuan.

  Grain and oil are mixed with waste oil for sale.

  In less than four years, the sales reached more than 280 million yuan.

  On July 4th, 2011, the campaign of encirclement and suppression of gutter oil, which was specially supervised by the Ministry of Public Security and originated in Zhejiang, started with Jinan wesen Energy Co., Ltd. and then swept across Shandong and Henan. According to the confession of the person in charge of Jinan wesen Energy Co., Ltd., 95% of the waste oil he produced was sold to a company in Henan and Jinan Qianmen Trading Company. On the 7th, Jinan Intermediate People’s Court sentenced Yu Haibo and Xing Hongsheng, the registrants of Jinan Qianmen Business.

  In September 2006, Yu Haibo and Xing Hongsheng registered and established Qianmen Trading Company, engaged in grain and oil sales. They signed contracts for the purchase and sale of soybean oil with a number of pharmaceutical companies. In order to obtain high profits, Yu Haibo and Xing Hongsheng bought waste oil produced from hogwash fat at low prices from developed companies, Bohui Company and Green Company, mixed it with soybean oil and sold it to several pharmaceutical enterprises such as Qifa Pharmaceutical, Yitian Pharmaceutical and Inner Mongolia Company. Meanwhile, in order to avoid attracting others’ attention, Yu Haibo and Xing Hongsheng registered Dazhong Grain and Oil in October 2009 with Yu Haibo’s wife Zhang Hong as the legal representative. After the establishment of Dazhong Grain and Oil Co., Ltd., it alternately sold blended soybean oil to the above pharmaceutical enterprises with Qianmen Commerce. From September 2007 to July 2011, the two companies sold a total of 32,628.38 tons of waste oil, amounting to 280,202,899.26 yuan. It is understood that Yu Haibo is responsible for the comprehensive business activities of thousands of businesses and large and medium-sized grain and oil; Xing Hongsheng is responsible for purchasing and financial management; Liu Taijin and Yu Zhaorong are responsible for purchasing waste oil, blending and transporting it. Yu Haibo, Xing Hongsheng and Liu Taijin participated in all the sales activities. Since December 2010, Yu Zhaorong has participated in the sales of RMB 77,533,863.8.

  On the 7th, the court sentenced Yu Haibo to 15 years’ imprisonment and confiscated all his personal property. Xing Hongsheng was sentenced to 15 years in prison and all his personal property was confiscated; Liu Taijin was sentenced to nine years in prison and fined one million yuan; Yu Zhaorong was sentenced to seven years in prison and fined 500,000 yuan; The proceeds of crime and the property used for the crime shall be confiscated by the Jinan Municipal Public Security Bureau and turned over to the state treasury.

[Xin ‘an Evening News]Bao Xinhe, deputy to the National People’s Congress and president of China University of Science and Technology: The Ministry of Life Sciences and Medicine may add clinical medicine this year.

At the end of 2017, the Department of Life Sciences and Medicine of China University of Science and Technology was inaugurated, and Anhui Provincial Hospital was merged into the University of Science and Technology of China in the form of directly affiliated, named as "The First Affiliated Hospital of China University of Science and Technology". In more than a year, the talent training of the Ministry of Life Sciences and Medicine has started, and many top teams have settled in. The innovative practice of "New Medicine of HKUST" has accelerated, and the First Affiliated Hospital of China University of Science and Technology is moving towards a first-class hospital in China. In Beijing, Bao Xinhe, deputy to the National People’s Congress and president of China University of Science and Technology, was interviewed by Xin ‘an Evening News, Anhui Net and Dawan client reporters to talk about the integration of schools and colleges, personnel training and areas of concern at the meeting.


Top team settled in the First Affiliated Hospital of China University of Science and Technology.

The Department of Life Sciences and Medicine of China University of Science and Technology, jointly established by China Academy of Sciences, Anhui Provincial Government and National Health Planning Commission, has attracted much attention since its establishment. It is reported that Professor Cheng Linzhao, a well-known scholar in the United States and deputy director of the Department of Hematology, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in the United States, officially took charge of the Department of Life Sciences and Medicine after the Spring Festival in 2019 through the publication of a global recruitment notice in Nature magazine and the selection of a working group of the advisory committee. 

Not only that, over a year, many academicians such as Wang Hongyang, Ge Junbo, Bian Xiuwu, Jiang Hualiang, Zhao Yuliang and their research teams, as well as Academician Tian Zhigang and Professor Shen Yong of the University of Science and Technology of China have settled in the Department of Life Sciences and Medicine, and established oncology, artificial intelligence and medical innovation, intelligent pathology, medicinal chemical biology, intelligent nano system for tumor diagnosis and treatment, immunotherapy and neurology respectively. 

Bao Xinhe told reporters that at present, the Ministry of Life Sciences and Medicine has established 8-10 research centers or institutes, all of which are located in hospitals, and they are basically led by academicians or famous experts, and each team has a very high level in their respective fields. Basic research will be closely combined with clinic, which will not only help to improve the level of medical research, but also benefit Anhui people.


Exploring the "5+3" Medical Talents Training Mode

"Last year, we recruited nearly 60 graduate students, basically in life sciences and basic medical research." Bao Xinhe said that China University of Science and Technology is one of the 20 universities recognized by the Ministry of Education that can set up their own specialties. This year, it plans to explore the establishment of a new clinical medicine specialty in the Department of Life Sciences and Medicine. 

"This year, we hope to set up a postgraduate major in clinical medicine. Recently, we have been promoting this matter, and the Ministry of Education attaches great importance to it. We have also declared the direction of undergraduate clinical medicine. " Bao Xinhe said. 

If clinical medicine is added this year, will the enrollment scale be expanded? Bao Xinhe said that University of Science and Technology China has always adhered to the excellent school-running route, and the overall enrollment scale of both undergraduate and graduate students will not be very large. 

Bao Xinhe revealed that the training of top-notch innovative medical talents is being accelerated. On the basis of "China University of Science and Technology and Peking Union Medical College Biomedical Interdisciplinary Talents Training PhDPro?gram", China University of Science and Technology and Peking Union Medical College signed a cooperation agreement on innovative medical talents training, drawing on international medical talents training experience, following the laws of medical education and medical talents training, and reflecting the requirements of medical education for talents with multidisciplinary education background. 

It is understood that last year, China University of Science and Technology set up a medical talent class for freshmen and sophomores. After interview and selection, 21 students from School of Life Sciences, Junior College and School of Chemistry and Materials were selected. 

"We are making some reforms and exploring the 5+3 talent training model." Bao Xinhe said that in this "5", students are actually required to study basic subjects for three years at the undergraduate level, then study medical knowledge for two years, and then study medical knowledge for three years at the postgraduate level. "This forms a’ 3+2+3′ model."


The first phase of high-tech park is expected to be capped in September.

Last September, the foundation stone laying ceremony was held in the High-tech Park of China University of Science and Technology. It is reported that the high-tech park of the school is adjacent to the Advanced Technology Research Institute of China University of Science and Technology in the north, the Institute of Quantum Information and Quantum Science and Technology Innovation of Chinese Academy of Sciences in the west, and the National Laboratory of Quantum Information (under construction) is a complete innovation subject. Both of them are planned synchronously. After completion, they will form an innovative closed loop of talent training, scientific and technological innovation and achievement transfer with the Institute of Advanced Technology of China University of Science and Technology, and become an important part of Hefei Comprehensive National Science Center. 

"HKUST’s existing campus in Hefei City covers an area of about 1,800 mu. As a new campus of HKUST, the planned total land for high-tech parks is more than 1,500 mu. The master plan is expected to be delivered by the end of next year. After the completion of the (high-tech park), we will make some adjustments to the functions of the school park. " Bao Xinhe said that the East Campus of University of Science and Technology China mainly focuses on the training of science talents, while the West Campus mainly focuses on the education of basic disciplines such as engineering and medicine. In the future, High-tech Park will focus more on new engineering and high-tech development, which also matches the development orientation of Hefei High-tech Zone. 


Building a nationwide scientific and technological innovation system

Innovation is the gene of China University of Science and Technology. Bao Xinhe said that from the end of December last year to February this year, China University of Science and Technology has published five articles in top journals such as Nature》《Science and Cell. "We can’t just talk about papers, but we encourage the publication of this innovative high-level work. The recent work covers quantum science, chemistry, ground and air, medicine and so on, which also reflects the strong vitality of the school in many fields of original basic research." 

"At last year’s People’s Congress, I proposed to build a transformation system for scientific and technological achievements in Anhui. In one year, we have gradually established such a transformation system for scientific and technological achievements in several cities in the province, such as Wuhu, Bengbu, Fuyang and Tongling." Bao Xinhe told reporters that China University of Science and Technology will build some scientific and technological achievements transformation centers in these cities, and send researchers, hoping to deliver the good scientific research achievements not only to China University of Science and Technology, but also to alumni of Chinese Academy of Sciences and China University of Science and Technology directly to users. Our goal is to build a scientific and technological innovation system based in Hefei, covering Anhui and facing the whole country, relying on the Advanced Research Institute of the University of Science and Technology of China. "In fact, it is to send our scientific research results directly to places where there is a demand for local science and technology, and at the same time, cities will also participate in the construction of our center to jointly build such an institution for the transfer and transformation of achievements." 


It is suggested that a national science and technology ethics committee be established.

As an educational researcher, Bao Xinhe has always been very concerned about the construction of scientific and technological ethics in China. "In fact, I have proposed the" Proposal on Establishing a National Ethics Committee for Science and Technology "for two years, and it will be the third year to mention it at this year’s meeting." Bao Xinhe said that in the past, people may not pay much attention to the ethics of science and technology, but last year, there were some things about the ethics of science and technology. He obviously felt that people’s awareness of the ethics of science and technology was increasing, and their opinions and feedback on the suggestions were also very specific. 

"There are a lot of uncertainties in the development of high technology now, which will also bring a lot of uncertainties to the future development of society. What kind of attitude to treat these uncertain scientific research involves the issue of scientific ethics." Bao Xinhe said that both the national level and researchers should seriously consider this issue, "including the design of scientific and technological programs and the determination of scientific and technological goals, we should also consider scientific ethics".

                           (Comprehensive report by news center)

The family was turned yellow by P, and the mobile phone was blown up. "Soft violence" means bad debt collection.

CCTV News:Mr. Wu, who lives in Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, borrowed a small loan online to solve the financial problem at home. Unexpectedly, in addition to the economic pressure brought by high interest rates, he also suffered from serious mental torture, living in harassment, curse and fear day and night.

Victim Mr. Wu: Because something happened at home, and then my salary was not in place, I went online to borrow such money. If you borrow 1000, you will get it, 900. If you pay it back, you have to pay 1200 yuan. Later, because of the situation of funds, I borrowed it again.

Originally, it was an urgent need, but then the hole became bigger and bigger, and Mr. Wu gradually began to fail to pay the loan. Unexpectedly, Mr. Wu still received frequent harassment from dunners, which seriously affected his work and life.

Mr. Wu: Send those verification codes and keep sending them. My company’s phone was also ringing off the hook, and later I lost my job because of this incident. Later, they also revised some photos, some coffin photos, and posted my parents’ photos on them.

Not only Mr. Wu, but also some victims suffered the same thing because of borrowing money.

Due to the failure to pay the loan, Mr. Lie began to be harassed by debt collection companies one after another.

Mr. Lie: He will call all the phones in the address book. Sometimes if I don’t answer the phone, he will scold you. For example, it’s boring to be a person like you. Forget it if you die. These mainly affect work, and sometimes you get calls at work, like we work at a place more than ten meters high, and you will be very irritable when you hear these calls.

There are not a few victims like Mr. Wu and Mr. Lie. Although they borrowed money on different online lending platforms, they were harassed by the same dunning company.

Regarding this dunning company, Zengcheng Branch of Guangzhou Public Security Bureau of Guangdong Province received a report in early 2019. After investigation, the police found that the dunners were all from the same building in Changping District, Beijing.

Li Changhua, deputy head of the Interpol Brigade of Zengcheng Branch of Guangzhou Public Security Bureau, Guangdong Province: This financial outsourcing company will undertake some business for collection. Divide according to a certain proportion. At present, more than a dozen software companies have entrusted them to collect money. We also looked for those software companies. The agreements they signed were all perfect. All the responsibilities of the software company can be evaded.

After investigation, it was found that this was the first case of "soft violence collection" in Guangdong Province, and it involved inter-provincial crimes. Compared with other criminal cases, the collection company in this "soft violence collection" case uses financial companies as the operating platform to collect loans, but their methods and methods in the collection process seriously infringe on the rights and interests of the victims.

Li Changhua, deputy head of the Interpol Brigade of Zengcheng Branch of Guangzhou Public Security Bureau, Guangdong Province: If the loan is not paid back for more than 60 days, it is considered as a bad online loan. They buy some "call you to death" software. Once connected, he didn’t speak, hung up, hung up and called, and kept calling for 24 hours. This is some of their common practices.

Zengcheng Branch of Guangzhou Public Security Bureau immediately set up a task force to investigate the dunning company. However, the police of the task force encountered the first problem: it is difficult to obtain evidence.

The police of the task force spent more than half a year. Among the nearly 10,000 victims involved in the case, dozens of people agreed to take notes and provide evidence to the police.

After collecting the evidence, the police found that there was still a difficulty in the investigation of the case: the dunning company used soft violence, which threatened the victim’s psychology and made the victim panic. So, how should the police convict the victim?

The Supreme People’s Court, the Supreme People’s Procuratorate, the Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of Justice jointly issued the Opinions on Several Issues Concerning Handling Criminal Cases of "Soft Violence", which pointed out that "Soft Violence" refers to the behavior of people who seek illegal interests or have an illegal influence, harassing, pestering, clamoring and gathering people in relevant places, which is enough to make others feel fear and panic and then form psychological coercion, or to influence, restrict personal freedom, endanger personal property safety and so on.

On April 16, 2019, Zengcheng Branch of Guangzhou Public Security Bureau of Guangdong Province and Changping Branch of Beijing Public Security Bureau jointly arrested this debt collection company.

In this operation, the police arrested more than 400 suspects and seized a large amount of evidence at the scene.

 

Li Changhua, deputy head of the Criminal Police Brigade of Zengcheng Branch of Guangzhou Public Security Bureau, Guangdong Province: The judicial interpretation of soft violence has given us a tonic. This judicial guidance was issued in a timely manner. As far as I know, after we finished this case, crimes were committed all over the country, including Shenzhen.

Huang Weining, a policeman of the Criminal Police Brigade of Zengcheng Public Security Bureau, Guangzhou City, Guangdong Province: These employed people call and send text messages to collect money in the company. They think this is the company’s requirement. Even if the crime is the company’s business, it has nothing to do with themselves. They will have such a misunderstanding.

The police suggested that the debtor should first actively fulfill his obligation to repay the loan, and the creditor should also collect the debt according to the law within the scope of the law. During this period, if there is a problem, both parties should safeguard their rights through legal channels.

The dual clutch is not bad, but you don’t know how to drive, and teach you the correct driving method to unlock the dual clutch.

It seems that the dual-clutch gearbox has always had a bad reputation in the market, saying that it is all kinds of setbacks, and then the low-speed shift is irregular, and there are some design defects and some ghosts. Actually, I agree with you.

Although the dual clutch does bring some uncomfortable experiences at low speed, it also has its own outstanding advantages, such as high shift efficiency and fast shift speed, and makes the power almost seamlessly connected. However, there are also wet and dry types in powershift. Generally speaking, the wet type will be better, because the heat dissipation will be better, and it will not prompt the gearbox to overheat and then start the overheating protection because of a little intense driving …

Because of the special structure system and logical thinking of the dual clutch, it still needs some skills to be "comfortable" when driving a dual clutch vehicle. Let me give the dual clutch a wave of "rehabilitation".

Don’t let the clutch whine

Many owners of dual clutch gearboxes complain that their dual clutches are easily broken, but most of them are caused by improper use. For example, when stopping at a red light, many car owners like to step on the brakes, and then the car stops, just fine. The brakes are not stepped to the end. In fact, this is very burning the clutch plate, which is equivalent to the manual car stepping on the brakes without stepping on the clutch. Originally, the clutch plate was replaced about 80 thousand kilometers, and then the clutch plate of 50 thousand kilometers was GG.

Make more use of neutral position

Many old drivers like to stop and step on the foot brake, which is very irrational and even stupid. N-block is for you to stop for a short time. Others are good to say. If the vehicles in powershift keep stepping on the brakes when parking, the loss of your vehicles will be much greater than others. So it’s always right to park in N gear and be diligent.

Remember to step on the brake to the end.

If you change gears frequently in traffic jam, it will be troublesome, so I will teach you a method, that is, brake to the end, so that the clutch plate will loosen, because the computer has detected that you have to park.

Don’t worry about starting.

Many car owners who drive dual clutch vehicles often report that when they start in D gear, they don’t understand when they step on the accelerator. This is because the clutch plate will have 0.7 seconds to engage in the semi-clutch state after you put it in gear, so the engine will idle before stepping on the accelerator, and the best way is to wait for the idle speed to bring the car up before stepping on the accelerator.

Try to avoid low-speed peristalsis

Many times, when a female driver with dual clutch stops in the basement, the temperature of the gearbox is too high and she needs to stop to dissipate heat because of moving the car for a long time. That’s because the clutch plates are always in a state of semi-linkage. If the friction time is too long, the protection mechanism will be activated. Therefore, when driving a dual-clutch car at a low speed, it must be wretched and don’t wave.

Research: ferrets and cats are susceptible to Covid-19, which can cause "cat-to-cat transmission"

  Covid-19 is thought to originate from bats, and it is 96.2% similar to RaTG13 (collected by Shi Zhengli, Wuhan Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, in Yunnan, China in 2013) in nucleotide sequence level. However, it is a kind of novel coronavirus that has not been detected in humans and other animals before, and its appearance has brought many new problems to be solved urgently, including whether other pets, livestock and poultry may be infected by Covid-19 besides humans?

  On April 8th, local time, the top academic journal Science published the paper "Susceptibility of Ferrets, Cats, Dogs, and Different Domestic Animals to SARS-coronavirus-2" online. The purpose of this study is to find out some questions: Will Covid-19 be transmitted to other animal species, thus becoming a "reservoir" of infection? Covid-19 infection has many clinical manifestations in humans, ranging from mild infection to death, so how is it manifested in other animals? With the development of vaccines and antiviral drugs, which animals can be used to simulate the effects of these drugs or vaccines on humans most accurately?

  In order to solve these problems, research teams from the State Key Laboratory of Veterinary Biotechnology of Harbin Veterinary Research Institute of Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the National High-level Biosafety Laboratory of Animal Disease Prevention and Control evaluated the susceptibility of different model experimental animals, pets and livestock to Covid-19, infected Covid-19 through experiments, observed the clinical manifestations and pathological changes of vaccinated animals and cohabiting animals, and detected the viral load of organs and tissues, the emission of respiratory and intestinal viruses, and the seroconversion of antibodies against Covid-19 in animals.

  Their research shows that Covid-19 has weak replication ability in dogs, pigs, chickens and ducks, but it can replicate efficiently in ferrets’ upper respiratory tract and cats’ respiratory system and digestive system. Experimental infected cats can spread Covid-19 through the air; Some cats can cause serious illness or even death after infection, and the illness of young cats is obviously more serious than that of older cats.

  Histopathological observation confirmed that virus infection in cats can cause lung inflammation and intestinal mucosal damage to varying degrees. Immunohistochemical study showed that there were a large number of virus infections in mucosal epithelium and olfactory bulb cells of upper respiratory tract (nasal cavity, maxilla, tonsil), mucous gland epithelial cells of trachea and bronchial mucosa, and intestinal mucosal epithelium.

  The correspondent of this paper is Chen Hualan, academician of China Academy of Sciences, chief scientist of the innovation team of animal influenza basic and prevention research in Harbin Veterinary Research Institute of China Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Bu Zhigao, director of Harbin Veterinary Research Institute of Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and director of the national high-level biosafety laboratory for animal disease prevention and control, and Wu Guizhen, secretary of the Party Committee of Institute of Viral Disease Prevention and Control of China CDC and director of BSL-3 laboratory. Previously, on March 31st, local time, the research team had taken the lead in publishing the research on the preprint platform bioRxiv.

  It is worth mentioning that the National High-level Biosafety Laboratory for Animal Disease Prevention and Control is one of the existing two P4 laboratories in China, and the other is in Wuhan National Biosafety Laboratory of Chinese Academy of Sciences. All the experiments of Covid-19 infection in this study were carried out in P4 laboratory, which was approved by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs of China. Animal research and animal welfare programs were approved by the Animal Experimental Ethics Committee of China Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

  According to the press release issued by official website, Harbin Veterinary Research Institute of Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, different coronaviruses have been prevalent in mammals and poultry, but most of these coronaviruses are limited to specific species of animals and generally cannot infect humans. Similarly, several common coronaviruses in humans do not infect other animals. However, some coronaviruses from bats, such as SARS and MERS virus, can often infect many animals and humans.

  At present, Covid-19 is popular among a wide range of people in the world, and the risk of introducing animals in close contact with human beings is increasing. Therefore, it is urgent to study the susceptibility of domestic animals in close contact with human beings to Covid-19, evaluate whether domestic animals are exposed to Covid-19 hazards and become potential intermediate hosts, and provide scientific basis for prevention and control of Covid-19.

  In addition, in view of the current global epidemic situation of COVID-19, it is very likely that it will evolve into a common infectious disease, and it is urgent to establish a stable and reliable animal infection model to meet the needs of vaccine and drug research and development evaluation.

  The research team stressed that the monitoring of cat COVID-19 should be regarded as an auxiliary means to eliminate the current Covid-19 epidemic. They called for close monitoring and protection of cats in epidemic areas, avoiding their contact with infectious sources and preventing them from becoming possible transmission hosts or storage hosts.

  In addition, it was previously questioned that cats infected with COVID-19 were caused by large doses under laboratory conditions. However, in addition to this research, on April 3rd, Academician Jin Meilin, professor of the State Key Laboratory of Agricultural Microbiology of Huazhong Agricultural University, director of the Key Laboratory of Veterinary Diagnostic Preparations of the Ministry of Agriculture, director of the Research Center for Emerging Infectious Diseases of Wuhan Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and researcher Shi Zhengli, director of the Key Laboratory of Highly Pathogenic Biology and Biosafety of Chinese Academy of Sciences, also published a study on the preprint platform bioRxiv. Through the investigation of cat serum, they found that the serum ELISA test of 102 cats collected after the outbreak of COVID-19 in Wuhan showed that the serum from 15 cats (14.7%) was positive for Covid-19 receptor binding domain (RBD).

  Nadia, a 4-year-old tiger from Bronx Zoo in new york, USA, was recently diagnosed with Covid-19. On April 5, local time, the US Department of Agriculture issued a statement confirming that a tiger in a zoo in new york was diagnosed with Covid-19, and several other lions and tigers also showed symptoms of respiratory diseases. Officials at the Bronx Zoo in new york said that nadia, three other tigers and three African lions had symptoms of dry cough and loss of appetite, but they are expected to recover. Public health officials believe that these animals were infected by an asymptomatic employee.

  Covid-19 can be replicated in the upper respiratory tract of ferrets for up to 8 days, but it will not cause serious illness or death.

  Ferrets are often used as animal models of human respiratory viruses. Therefore, the research team first tested ferrets’ sensitivity to Covid-19.

  Two Covid-19 strains were used in this study: F13-E from Wuhan South China Seafood Market and CTan-H from a patient infected with Covid-19.

  The research team inoculated 10 5 PFU (Plaque Forming Unit) F13-E or CTan-H into ferrets through nose respectively, and euthanized them on the 4th day after inoculation (P.I.). The turbinate, soft palate, tonsil, trachea, lung, heart, spleen, kidney, pancreas, small intestine, brain and liver of each ferret were collected, and the viral RNA was determined by qPCR and virus titration.

  Viral RNA:A in ferrets’ organs or tissues: A, F13-E, B, CTAN-H..

  The results showed that viral RNA and infectious virus were detected in the turbinate, soft palate and tonsil of all four ferrets, but not in other tissues.

  C, virus titer in organs or tissues of ferrets inoculated with F13-E, D and CTAN-H.

  The research team believes that these results show that Covid-19 can replicate in the upper respiratory tract of ferrets, but it has not been detected in other tissues.

  In order to study the replication dynamics of virus in ferrets, the research team intranasally inoculated 6 ferrets with 10^5pfu of F13-E(3) or CTan-H(3), and then placed them in three isolated cages. On the 2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th and 10th day, ferret nasal wash and rectal swab were collected for virus RNA detection and virus titration. At the same time, their body temperature and COVID-19 signs were monitored for two weeks.

  Viral RNA in the nasal wash of ferrets inoculated with F13-E(E) and CTan-H(F). Viral titers in the nasal wash of ferrets inoculated with F13-E(G) and CTan-H(H).

  The results showed that viral RNA was found in the nasal wash of all six ferrets on the 2nd, 4th, 6th and 8th day. Viral RNA was also found in some rectal swabs, but the copy number was significantly lower than that of nasal wash. Infectious virus was detected in nasal wash of all ferrets, but none of them was found in rectal swab.

  One ferret in each group developed fever and loss of appetite on the 10th and 12th days respectively. In order to investigate whether these symptoms are caused by virus replication in the lower respiratory tract, the research team euthanized the two ferrets on the 13th day and collected their organs for virus RNA detection.

  However, except for the ferret turbinate inoculated with CTan-H, the low copy number was detected, and no viral RNA was detected in any other tissues or organs.

  Pathological studies showed that two ferrets euthanized on the 13th day had severe lymphoplasmacytic vasculitis and vasculitis, the number of type II alveolar cells, macrophages and neutrophils in alveolar septa and alveolar cavities increased, and the lungs had mild bronchiolitis.

  The asterisk indicates that the animals were euthanized on the 13th day after inoculation, and the other four animals were euthanized on the 20th day.

  Covid-19 antibody was detected in all ferrets by ELISA and neutralization test, and the antibody titers of two ferrets euthanized on the 13th day were significantly lower than those euthanized on the 20th day.

  In order to further study whether Covid-19 was replicated in ferrets’ lungs, the research team inoculated 8 ferrets with 10^5 pfu of CTan-H through trachea, and euthanized 2 animals on the 2nd, 4th, 8th and 14th days, respectively, and detected virus RNA in tissues and organs.

  Among the two ferrets euthanized on the second day and the two ferrets euthanized on the fourth day, the researchers only detected viral RNA; in the turbinate and soft palate of one of them. Among the two ferrets euthanized on the eighth day, viral RNA; was detected in the soft palate of one ferret and in the turbinate, soft palate, tonsil and trachea of the other ferret. No viral RNA was detected in the two ferrets euthanized on the 14th day.

  These results indicate that Covid-19 can replicate in the upper respiratory tract of ferrets for up to 8 days without causing serious illness or death.

  At the end of the paper, the research team also mentioned that, comparatively speaking, Covid-19 is different from other influenza viruses that can replicate in the upper respiratory tract and lower respiratory tract of ferrets, and even human SARS-CoV. Covid-19 is only replicated in ferrets’ nasal bones, soft palate and tonsils. It can also replicate in the digestive tract, but even if the virus is inoculated in the trachea, the virus is still not detected in the lungs of ferrets.

  Cats are highly susceptible to "cat-to-cat transmission": the monitoring of cat Covid-19 should be regarded as an auxiliary means of epidemic prevention and control.

  It is worth noting that cats and dogs are in close contact with humans, so the research team thinks that besides laboratory animals like ferrets, it is very important to know the susceptibility of domestic animals that often live with humans to COVID-19 for the control of Covid-19.

  The research team first studied the replication of Covid-19 in cats. Five 8-month-old subadult domestic cats (inbred lines) were intranasally inoculated with 10^5pfu of CTan-H, and two of them were scheduled to be euthanized on the sixth day to evaluate the virus replication in their organs. Three cats were put in separate cages in the isolator. In order to monitor the spread of respiratory droplets, an uninfected cat was placed in a cage adjacent to each cat vaccinated with the virus.

  Because 8-month-old cats are aggressive, it is difficult to carry out routine nasal cleaning on them. In order to avoid possible harm, the research team collected the feces of these cats and checked the viral RNA in their organs after euthanasia.

  Virus RNA was detected in the nasal bone, soft palate and tonsils of two sub-adult domestic cats euthanized on the 6th day, and virus RNA was also detected in the trachea of one cat and the small intestine of the other cat. However, no viral RNA was detected in any lung samples of these two cats.

  Infectious viruses were detected in the nasal bones, soft palate, tonsils and trachea of these cats, but no infectious viruses were found in the small intestine with positive viral RNA.

  The spread of Covid-19 among cats.

  In the study of virus transmission, RNA virus was detected in the feces of two vaccinated cats on the third day, and RNA virus was detected in the feces of all three vaccinated cats on the fifth day. Among the three cats at risk of virus exposure, viral RNA was detected in the feces of one cat on the third day.

  Virus-infected cats with positive feces were euthanized on the 11th day. Virus RNA was detected in the soft palate and tonsils of the infected cats and in the nasal bones, soft palate, tonsils and trachea of the exposed cats, indicating that respiratory droplets spread between cats.

  On the 12th day, the research team euthanized the remaining cats. Viral RNA was detected in the tonsils of one virus-infected cat and the nasal bone, soft palate, tonsils and trachea of another virus-infected cat, but it was not detected in any organ or tissue of the two virus-exposed cats.

  Through ELISA and neutralization test, Covid-19 antibody was detected in all three cats inoculated with virus and one cat exposed to virus.

  Covid-19 replicates efficiently in respiratory system and digestive system of infected cats, causing pathological damage and inflammatory reaction. Histopathological and immunohistochemical study on cats that died or were euthanized three days after virus infection. (a) The arrangement of nasal mucosa epithelium is disordered, cilia fall off (arrow), and lymphocytes in lamina propria infiltrate (arrow). (b) The tonsil epithelial cells are degenerated and necrotic, and the surface of mucosal epithelium (asterisk) is covered with cell fragments and neutrophils (arrow). (c) Epithelial degeneration and necrosis of tracheal mucosa (arrow), with mucus (asterisk) mixed with a large number of cell fragments on the surface. (d) Epithelial necrosis of tracheal mucous glands and infiltration of lymphocytes (arrow). (e) Normal lung tissue structure of uninfected cats. (f) Aggregation of inflammatory cells in pulmonary blood vessels and coagulation of fibrin (arrow). (g) A large number of macrophages and lymphocytes infiltrated in alveoli, that is, alveolar septa. (h) Infiltration and proliferation of alveoli and alveolar septitis. (i) Some cells in the epithelium of small intestine are degenerated and necrotic, and lymphocytes in the lamina propria are moderately infiltrated (arrow). (j) A large number of epithelial cells of turbinate mucosa were positive for virus antigen (brown). (k) A large number of exfoliated cells in tonsil mucosa epithelium and mucosa surface were positive for virus antigen (brown). (l) A large number of virus antigens were positive (brown) in serous cells of tracheal mucous glands. (m) A large number of small intestinal mucosal epithelial cells were positive for virus antigen (brown). Ruler line A, I = 100 μ m, B-H, J-L = 200 μ m, M = 500 μ m

  The research team also repeated the above-mentioned replication and transmission research in sub-adult cats in young cats (70-100 days). Histopathological studies on the samples of young cats who died or were euthanized on the third day after being inoculated with the virus showed that the nasal cavity and tracheal mucosa epithelium and lungs of the two cats had a lot of damage.

  These results indicate that Covid-19 can be effectively replicated in cats, and young cats are more susceptible to infection. More importantly, the virus can spread from cat to cat through respiratory droplets.

  Next, the research team also studied the replication and spread of Covid-19 in dogs, and the results showed that dogs were less sensitive to Covid-19. Similar studies also show that pigs, chickens and ducks are not sensitive to Covid-19.

  Overall, the research team found that ferrets and cats are highly sensitive to Covid-19, dogs are less sensitive, and domestic animals including pigs, chickens and ducks are not sensitive to the virus.

  In addition, it is reported that Covid-19 uses angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) as its receptor to enter cells, and ACE2 is mainly expressed in type II lung cells and serous epithelial cells of ferrets’ tracheal-bronchial submucosal glands. Therefore, the research team believes that the potential mechanism to prevent Covid-19 from replicating in ferrets’ lower respiratory tract remains to be studied.

  The results of this study show that ferrets can be used as animal models for vaccine and drug evaluation in Covid-19. Dogs, pigs, chickens and ducks are not susceptible to Covid-19, which has important guiding significance for the traceability of virus hosts; More importantly, cats are highly susceptible to Covid-19.

  The research team called for close monitoring and protection of cats in epidemic areas to avoid contact with infectious sources and prevent them from becoming possible transmission hosts or storage hosts. The monitoring of cat COVID-19 should be regarded as an auxiliary means to eliminate the current Covid-19 epidemic.
