China Introduces Vaccine Mandates for Most Public Venues for First Time_我的网站

一 |     Beginning next week, people wanting to enter certain public facilities in China will need to show proof of COVID-19 vaccination or of having a medical reason for not getting the shot, Li Ang, deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Health Commission, told reporters on Wednesday.,The list includes museums, theaters, stadiums, gyms, and other entertainment venues; in addition, elderly people will also have to show proof of vaccination to enter community facilities such as game rooms. Restaurants and public transportation are exempt from the new requirement.,The new mandate is in addition to a standing requirement for residents of the Chinese capital city to get tested every three days and to need a negative test to enter public venues.,A year ago, when the Delta variant of COVID-19 caused the worst outbreak in China since the one that started the pandemic, and Beijing responded by ushering in the “Zero Covid” policy, the National Health Commission urged provincial authorities to keep the vaccination program “informed, consented and voluntary” and not to introduce mandates for public access, as many Western states had done.,However, that was before China succeeded at vaccinating 87% of its 1.4 billion-strong population, including 97% of Chinese adults, and before the Omicron variant caused the worst and most persistent outbreaks for China until now in the pandemic.,The change also comes as the NHC relaxes travel quarantine requirements for the first time since the start of the pandemic in early 2020, but also as Beijing health authorities indicated they were planning for “Zero Covid” to last another five years.,The NHC reported 427 new cases on the Chinese mainland on Wednesday, most of them concentrated in the eastern provinces of Anhui and Jiangsu, and no new deaths. The news brings the total detected cases on the mainland since the start of the pandemic to 226,176, while total deaths remained at 5,226. The situation has been less rosy in Hong Kong, a special administrative region with greater autonomy, and in Taiwan, where an autonomous government with foreign backing rules in defiance of Chinese claims of sovereignty.,Paradoxically, Chinese elders have a lower vaccination rate than younger generations. Last month, the Financial Times reported that Chinese cities had begun offering “vaccine insurance” to people over the age of 60, pledging to cover their medical costs related to any potential complications caused by vaccination. Some two-thirds of Chinese citizens over 60 are under-vaccinated, with 95 million not having gotten their booster shot as of June 5.,Ma Chaofeng, a health official in Shaanxi’s capital of Xi'an, told reporters on Tuesday that more than two dozen cases had been detected in the city and were identified as the BA 5.2 subvariant of Omicron. The city introduced new mass nucleic testing on Wednesday in an attempt to stay ahead of a larger outbreak, with most commercial and medical institutions remaining open as normal. Nonetheless, in the West, where essentially all pandemic mitigation measures have been discarded, the move was described as “Xi’an shuts back down.”,“The transmission chain is clear, the source is clear,” Pang Xinghuo, deputy director of the Beijing Centre for Disease Prevention and Control, told reporters on Wednesday about the imported cluster in Xi’an. “The outbreak is considered to be controllable overall, based on the existing epidemic development trend.”。    　　宁夏西吉8月24日电 题：闽宁协作三十载：西吉小菌棒成为群众增收“金棒棒”　　记者于晶　　24日，记者走进固原市西吉县新营乡甘井村菌菇种植基地，连片大棚整齐排列，棚内菌棒码放整齐，平菇、杏鲍菇蓬勃生长，村民忙着采摘分拣，处处是丰收忙碌的景象。依托闽宁协作山海纽带，福建福清企业家周长金带着技术扎根六盘山区，让一根根菌棒成为群众稳岗增收的“金棒棒”。　　2007年，周长金初到宁夏中卫，南北气候差异曾让他萌生退意。担任食用菌技术员后，他潜心钻研菌种培育与大棚管护。实践中他发现，西吉冷凉干燥、昼夜温差大，菌菇品质出众，还可与东南产区错峰上市，市场潜力巨大，便决心扎根西北发展菌菇产业。　　在中卫、武威积累产业经验后，2024年，经闽宁协作西吉工作组对接，周长金将产业布局落在甘井村，注册成立宁夏闽荣鑫农业科技有限公司。此前村里150栋温室大棚种植蔬菜收益不高，部分设施闲置。企业引入福建种植团队与标准化管护模式，发展多品类食用菌，配套建设菌棒车间与700吨冷链冷库，年产菌棒超240万棒，年产值达1000万元，鲜菇销往北京、上海、四川等地。　　福清市投入390万元建设甘井村菌菇鲜储加工基地，年周转鲜菇2000余吨，带动村集体年增收15万元以上，提供5个固定岗位，助力闽宁示范村建设。周长金表示，这不是单向帮扶，而是闽宁两地合伙干事，福建输出技术渠道，西吉提供土地人力，资源互补才能让产业行稳致远。

二 | 　　当地推行“村集体+企业+农户”联营模式，村集体闲置大棚对外租赁，年获租金24万余元。

三 | 企业推出低门槛合作，农户仅需缴纳1元定金，菌棒余款从卖菇收益中抵扣，降低创业门槛。基地带动群众就近务工，日薪130元，采收高峰单日用工160人，务工群众月入3000余元，年增收近20000元。　　产业壮大的同时，废弃菌棒处理成为难题。

四 | 西吉每年产生千万根废旧菌棒，填埋焚烧存在生态风险。

五 | 企业引进福建微生物发酵技术，在火石寨乡建成有机肥加工厂，上门免费回收菌渣，经破碎腐熟加工成优质有机肥，预计年产有机肥5万吨，实现农业废弃物变废为宝。　　企业还联合西北农林科技大学选育苹果新品种，建成249亩苹果示范园，打造“种菇—菌渣制肥—果园还田”循环链条。有机肥厂吸纳56名村民稳定就业，累计发放薪酬230余万元。菌渣有机肥改良盐碱地效果突出，企业计划对接本地枸杞基地拓展销路。　　下一步，新营乡将联动中国商飞帮扶团队与闽籍企业，优化联农带农机制，培育榆黄菇等新品种，完善收益共享，让更多群众共享产业发展红利。
