Why should travel be healthy?

17 years ago during the SARS period, I was still in primary school. At that time, there was a factory closure and shutdown, but it didn't seem to have much impact on me. Besides taking my temperature in my daily life, I had more time to stay at home and watch cartoons.

17 years later, coronavirus was rampant. I began to pay attention to the epidemic situation, brushed the news over and over again, began to wear masks to disinfect my home over and over again, and told my family over and over again not to go out to visit relatives and friends this Spring Festival.

Just like a friend circle I saw two days ago wrote: "SARS", I was still a child, but now I have my own child.

Perhaps, when we grow up, we suddenly seem to have too many troubles, but it is undeniable that we have also learned to take on more responsibilities.

The epidemic affects everyone's heart. The outbreak coincided with the Lunar New Year, and Wuhan, where coronavirus first appeared, was also an important transportation hub, known as the thoroughfare of nine provinces, with 6,543,805 people passing through Wuhan and flowing to all parts of the country. So we see that the map is gradually filled with red, and the number of infected people and the number of confirmed cases are rising.

But the good news keeps coming. The provinces organized medical teams to rush to Wuhan. As a major agricultural province, Shandong continued to deliver fresh vegetables to the epidemic areas, and the patients were cured and discharged. Recently, the Volcano God Hospital, which is under emergency construction, began to treat patients. ...

The most effective way to control the epidemic is early detection and early isolation. For most people, it is essential to choose "grounding gas at home" to reduce population flow.

So we can often see everyone's "confusing behavior rewards" at home, such as playing mahjong with ourselves, turning the living room into a badminton room, and turning the dining table into a table tennis table ... but sometimes, we have to go out, but even if we are fully armed, we are still worried.

You know, the virus is very contagious. Buses, subways, high-speed trains, airplanes, and even online cars are almost the best hotbeds for the spread of the virus. These modes of travel will always contact more people directly or indirectly, and there are considerable hidden dangers.

Obviously, in this special period, more people will choose to drive private cars when they encounter some necessary trips.

Judging from the transmission characteristics of the virus, we are driving in a relatively closed space. If the outside air wants to enter the car, it must run to the hood of the car, pass through the long air-conditioning duct from the air-conditioning inlet outside the car, and then pass through the air-conditioning filter before entering the car.

The air inlet of the automobile air conditioner itself is out of the reach of ordinary people. The probability of the virus appearing here is very small, and the probability of entering the car is even smaller. So sitting in the car, the outside world is not a crowd distance zone, which is relatively safer.

Of course, when driving a private car, you should also take some preventive measures, such as ventilation in an open place; In a closed environment such as an underground parking lot, it is recommended to close the windows and turn on the internal circulation mode of the air conditioner for ventilation.

It is suggested that drivers use hand disinfectant for hand hygiene after returning to vehicles in public places. After getting on the bus, relatives and friends (with unknown health status) should open the window in time to ventilate and disinfect the surface of related items in the car. You can choose a legal and effective disinfectant or disinfectant wipes to wipe and disinfect.

Of course, we should also pay attention to this.

In recent years, the changes of automobile design are more light weight, luxurious interior, clean power, comfortable space and quiet. However, under the increasingly serious urban pollution and congested road conditions, one of the signs of comfortable interior space is the air quality inside the car.

In many mid-to-high-end new models, the air filter with PM2.5 removed has become a standard configuration, and there are even other aromatherapy functions. For example, some models of Tesla are equipped with HEPA high-efficiency air filtration system, which can effectively prevent viruses and bacteria from entering the compartment and achieve medical-grade air quality in the car.

Not long ago, Geely Holding Group decided that Geely Automobile will invest 370 million yuan in advance to start the research and development of "all-round health car" with virus prevention function.

It is understood that the "all-around health car" will be different from the professional medical protection car, and it is a consumer-grade product mainly for ordinary consumers. It not only has the existing functions of Geely automobile products, such as isolating harmful substances from the outside air and purifying the air in the car quickly and efficiently, but also will focus on breaking through the virus prevention functions and technologies in the car to effectively eliminate the virus or reduce the harm of the virus to the human body.

At the same time, all materials in the car are not only environmentally friendly, but also have the ability to inhibit bacteria or surface sterilization by adding certain antibacterial substances, thus achieving more practical "all-round health".

With the outbreak of this epidemic, we gradually realized that when cars are safer and smarter, which functions are really needed by users? In addition to daily needs, we should also consider the environment in the car and what kind of help we can provide to users at the last minute.

This is not only the design and manufacture of a car, but also a comprehensive understanding of car life and the best guarantee for mobile travel.

Keigo Higashino said: Your task is to cherish your life and cherish it more than before.

We also know that spring is coming and winter won't stay long. What we have to do now is that unity is strength, and * * * can tide over the difficulties.
