HKU finds anti-leprosy drug can prevent C.C.P. pneumonia at low cost

The University of Hong Kong, in collaboration with institutions in the United States and Denmark, has found that the anti-leprosy drug clofazimine is effective in reducing the Newcastle pneumonia virus and reducing the inflammation caused by the virus; the effect is even more pronounced when added to another drug used to treat Newcastle, raltegravir.

In the study, published in the international scientific journal Nature, the anti-leprosy drug clofazimine prevented the entry of NCCV into cells and disrupted viral replication, significantly reducing lung damage and preventing the “cytokine storm” caused by the virus.

Studies have also shown that clofazimine effectively inhibits the replication of other human pathogenic coronaviruses, including Sars, or atypical pneumonia, as the Chinese Communist Party calls it, and Middle East respiratory syndrome.

Hong Kong’s unemployment rate rises to 7.2%, a 17-year high

Interface News reports that the employment situation in Hong Kong continues to deteriorate. The latest unemployment rate in Hong Kong rose to 7.2 percent, a 17-year high, and the number of unemployed rose to 261,600, according to data released by the Hong Kong SAR Government’s Census and Statistics Department on March 16.

During the period from December last year to February this year, the number of unemployed people increased by about 8,300 to 261,600,000, and the number of underemployed people increased by about 6,400 to 154,600. Total employment decreased by about 20,500 to 3.61 million people from November last year to January this year, and the total working population decreased to 3.87 million people during the same period.

Is it useful to impose secondary sanctions on senior officials involved in Hong Kong? Expert analysis

Is it useful to have a second sanction against senior officials involved in Hong Kong? Current affairs commentator Yokogawa analyzes that this is the first U.S. diplomacy to confirm that it is being implemented in full accordance with the former Trump administration’s policy of maintaining coherence. Sanctions definitely work, and while they may not directly affect Hong Kong policymaking at the highest levels, they can affect the morale of participants and implementers of the CCP’s Hong Kong-related policies.

To cite 2 examples, one is Bo Xilai, who, after being prosecuted by Falun Gong practitioners in Canada, abandoned his plan to visit the U.S. and returned to mainland China, was obstructed by Wen Jiabao and others in official circles on the grounds that being prosecuted too much overseas was detrimental to the CCP’s image, lost the struggle for access to the central core, and was relegated to Chongqing, in order to return to the center of power, which led to the singing of red and black, the flight of Wang Lijun and the earthquake in the political arena.

Another thing is the legend that at that Time the CCP officials at the provincial level and above were discussing who had been prosecuted again when they met, which was seen to be extremely deterrent. At least after 2005, the Chinese Communist Party covered up the persecution and stopped making a big deal about it. These were disclosed in the U.S. diplomatic messages released by Wikileaks back then, and have a fair amount of credibility.

PLA to attack Taiwan in 6 years? Taiwan’s defense chief: has envisioned to within 6 hours, accompanied by the end

Philip Davidson, commander of the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command, said Taiwan could face a military threat from the Chinese Communist Party within six years. Radio Free Asia reported that the Republic of China’s newly appointed Defense Minister Qiu Guozheng, 17 in the Legislative Yuan Defense and Foreign Affairs Committee to report on the Ministry of Defense, said: their own country to save their own, how many days people come, which is not in our consideration. There is no limit to the number of days. How many days he wants to fight, we will accompany the number of days. “Do not talk about 6 years, I have guarded to the next 6 bells if there is any situation to deal with.”

Chinese Communist Party armed unification of Taiwan? U.S. Department of Defense: a leader will become a weakness

In the U.S. Secretary of State Blinken (Antony Blinken) and Secretary of Defense Austin (Lloyd Austin) visit to Asia, the U.S. Department of Defense issued an article on the 15th “Department of Defense officials explain the situation in the Indo-Pacific” in response to the Communist Party of China armed unification of Taiwan analysis.

The U.S. Department of Defense said the centralized leadership of the Communist Party of China (CPC), which is concentrated in the “one nation,” is destined to prevent the Communist military from adapting to the situation and will be helpless in case of an emergency. And, the U.S. partnership with its Indo-Pacific allies and partners will be the best weapon for the U.S. to deal with the CCP.

The U.S. Department of Defense noted that the rapid development of Chinese Communist weapons systems has shaken the traditional U.S. deterrent power, but the Communist leadership is vulnerable. The U.S. military focuses on decentralized operations, taking full advantage of the initiative and independence of lower-ranking officers. When U.S. GIs or Marines have grenades thrown at them, they are able to fight at their best and do not need someone next to them to tell them how to respond to the enemy.

The U.S. Department of Defense said the Communist Party’s leaders talk a lot about reunifying Taiwan under Chinese governance, but the U.S. believes “Taiwan has never been part of the Communist Party.

Echoing the Defense Department article, Blinken and Austin denounced the Communist Party’s “coercion and aggression” against its neighbors and domestic people during visits to Japan and South Korea, where Blinken publicly stated that the U.S. military would step in when necessary and “will use coercion or aggression against China when necessary to be deterred.”

Still afraid of Trump? U.S. media exploded Beijing will do so in the U.S.-China dialogue…

With the U.S.-China Alaska dialogue about to begin, the Wall Street Journal reports that the Chinese Communist Party is proposing a different agenda that barely overlaps with Washington and goes south. Citing sources familiar with the content of the plan, the report said that Yang Jiechi, director of the Office of the Foreign Affairs Working Committee of the CPC Central Committee, and Foreign Minister Wang Yi intend to urge Secretary of State Blinken and National Security Adviser Sullivan to lift sanctions and restrictions imposed by the Trump Administration on Chinese Communist Party entities and individuals.

The measures that the Chinese Communist Party wants the U.S. to roll back include U.S. sales restrictions on Chinese companies such as huawei and SMIC, visa restrictions on Communist Party members, Chinese students and state media reporters, and the closure of the Chinese consulate in Houston.
