[Photo/IC] Institutions and individuals are prohibited from using overstatements and misleading words implying their myopia treatments could cure the eye disease, according to a notice released Wednesday. The words such as full recovery, a cure for shortsightedness and to conquer myopia could not be used in the advertisements, according to the notice calling for greater oversight of the industry of myopia prevention and treatment. Myopia cannot be cured under current medical technology, according to the notice jointly issued by six ministries including the National Health Commission, the Ministry of Education and the State Administration for Market Regulation. The notice also said that authorities would crack down on activities that deceive the public and damage their interests in the name of using Chinese medical technology to treat myopia. Hu Ailian, vice-director of the Beijing Institute of Ophthalmology at Beijing Tongren Hospital, said that myopia can't be cured at the current stage but children and teenagers could prevent, control or slow its progression by using their eyes properly, increasing outdoor time, and avoiding looking at close objects for long time. Once parents find their children have problems with eyesight, they should send them to ophthalmic medical institutions for examination, listen to doctors' suggestions and receive vision correction, Hu added. In addition, the NHC also asked the health authorities of all levels to crack down on ophthalmic medical institutions without a legal license and strengthen inspection of ophthalmic products and medical instruments in the notice. fundraising rubber wristbandsimprinted rubber braceletswholesale rubber braceletsbasketball silicone braceletspersonalized rubber band bracelets
Taiwan compatriots arrive at Wutong in Xiamen, Fujian province, after taking a ferry from Jinmen, Taiwan, on Jan 21. CHINA DAILY A mainland spokesman on Wednesday strongly condemned Taiwan independence separatist forces who proposed drafting a new constitution for the island. Taiwan is not an independent sovereign entity but part of China, said Ma Xiaoguang, spokesman for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, adding that the mainland will not remain silent. To promote 'Taiwan independence' in the name of making a new 'constitution' will only push Taiwan into a dangerous situation and seriously undermine stability across the Taiwan Straits, he said. 'Taiwan independence' is the greatest scourge to the fundamental interests of Taiwan residents and the greatest threat to peaceful development of cross-Straits relations, he added. On Jan 23, the island's former executive head Lai Ching-te said it's time that Taiwan draft a new constitution to solidify national unity and address issues arising from national identity. Lai made the remark at the opening of the Taiwan Constitution Foundation set up by prominent Taiwanese independence supporter Koo Kwang-ming. In response, Cho Jung-tai, the new chairman of Taiwan's ruling Democratic Progressive Party, said the DPP will not be absent in the move to push forward Taiwan independence. Cho assumed the post earlier this month after party head Tsai Ing-wen resigned following the DPP's disappointing performance in local elections in November. Ma said Lai's remark shows that the DPP is a saboteur of cross-Straits relations and a troublemaker not interested in working for peace and stability across the Straits. If they dare to promote various separatist activities aimed at 'Taiwan independence', the mainland will never sit idle, he added. Aside from mayoral elections in November, a referendum was held on changing the name under which Taiwan athletes will compete in the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games from Chinese Taipei to Taiwan. The motion failed. Zhang Wensheng, a professor of Taiwan politics at Xiamen University, Fujian province, said it showed that Taiwan residents do not support the DPP's Taiwan independence policy, and the party was taught a lesson by the election results. Ma also spoke on the Taiwan administration's intention to publish a list of mainland technology companies that it considers possible threats, and to ban relevant products. A ban would be harmful to both sides of the Taiwan Straits, Ma said. With the increasingly close cross-Straits economic and trade exchanges, the move would not only harm the interests of mainland enterprises, but also consumers and many manufacturers in the supply chain in Taiwan, thus affecting Taiwan's own economic development, Ma said. Such a practice of creating division and harming the rights and interests of the people of Taiwan is unpopular. We firmly oppose such practices by the DPP administration that undermine normal cross-Straits economic and trade cooperation. forza horizon how many wristbandschristian silicone wristbandspersonalized wristbands canadamake your own silicone bracelet kitcancer wristbands<%2fcenter>
