Recently, at a critical moment in the global fight against the epidemic, a news story in the UK has caused a huge uproar: mobile signal towers in many parts of the UK have been set on fire, and as of April 6th, more than 20 telecommunications base stations have been burned down in Liverpool and other places.
There was a rumor that "5G network spread COVID-19", and this was arson or related to it. Despite official denials from the UK, conspiracy theories surrounding 5G technology are gradually gaining popularity in some developed countries in Europe and America.
Burned down base station
As the cornerstone of economic and social digitization, 5G, which can be called the "Fourth Industrial Revolution", should have been a communication technology that benefits all mankind. Why has it become a product of "conspiracy" and "harm to humanity" in the eyes of these people? The author believes that the main reasons are the differences in Western ideology and the solidification of classes. Developed Western countries, especially the upper class, have always been in a stage of blind confidence, believing that capital can manipulate everything. When uncontrollable extreme events occur, one may be at a loss and even engage in anti intellectual behavior; On the other hand, the social classes in Europe and America have been entrenched for too long, with the wealthy receiving elite education and the poor not receiving guaranteed education. Many people may not even know what 5G is, leading to cognitive differences.
In fact, 5G not only does not spread viruses, but also plays an important positive role in this epidemic.
5G+live streaming supports' cloud supervision '
Real time live streaming of the construction of the Volcano God Hospital
5G video live streaming is the most intuitive application of 5G. In the construction of Huoshenshan and Leishenshan hospitals in Wuhan, hundreds of millions of "cloud supervisors" from all over the country witnessed the Chinese miracle together. This is precisely thanks to the technical support of 5G. Basic telecommunications companies provide 5G+fiber optic dual gigabit network technology support for "cloud supervision", and provide 24-hour construction scenes to multiple media platforms such as Xinhua News Agency and CCTV, supporting millions of people to watch simultaneously online. From live broadcasts of CCTV Spring Festival Gala, National People's Congress and Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, 70th anniversary celebration of the founding of the People's Republic of China, to the current "24-hour epidemic" live broadcasts, 5G live broadcasts have gradually matured in practice.
5G+remote healthcare enables' thousands of miles of consultation '
This epidemic can be regarded as an important turning point for the application of 5G technology in the medical industry, and 5G remote medical care has moved from the "experimental stage" to the "clinical stage".
To fully utilize the expert resources of big cities and hospitals, the 5G+remote consultation system has been quickly implemented in many hospitals across the country. Through the remote consultation system, experts can conduct consultations and provide treatment guidance for critically ill patients in remote hospitals. At present, this type of 5G telemedicine technology has been widely used in various scenarios of telemedicine in China, providing medical personnel with safer and more efficient treatment of patients.
5G+artificial intelligence alleviates shortage of medical staff
Recently, multiple 5G intelligent medical robots have entered Wuhan Union Medical College Hospital and Tongji Tianyou Hospital. They will assist medical staff in performing tasks such as guidance, disinfection, cleaning, and medication delivery, helping ward medical staff reduce cross infection and improve ward isolation and control levels. It is reported that with the support of 5G networks, intelligent medical robots from multiple technology companies have been promoted and applied in hospitals and health service centers in Hubei, Shanghai, Shandong, Jiangsu and other places, mainly for patient guidance and inquiry, registration and diagnosis.
Intelligent medical robots
The application of 5G+AI has effectively alleviated the difficulties of insufficient medical staff, shared the work of medical staff, reduced cross infection between medical staff and nurses, and boosted confidence and courage in fighting against COVID-19.
Numerous cases have shown that 5G related applications have played an important role in ensuring resumption of work and production, improving medical efficiency, reducing crowd gathering, and blocking the spread of the epidemic.
Rumors stop at those who know. I hope that while developing the 5G industry, government and enterprise units can increase their efforts in popularizing 5G related knowledge, so that more people can understand and recognize 5G, have more 5G fans, and reduce 5G black.
