Has it become convenient for the elderly to use health codes?

Recently, with the General Office of the State Council issuing the "Implementation Plan on Effectively Solving the Difficulties of the Elderly in Using Intelligent Technology", it has become convenient for the elderly to use health codes. The "health code" is no longer the only pass certificate, and it is also convenient for the elderly without smart phones to travel.

When it is necessary to query the "health code", the information related to epidemic prevention and control can be automatically integrated into the "health code" through technical means, so as to simplify the operation to suit the use of the elderly, optimize the agency investigation and other services, and continue to carry out the national mutual recognition of "health code" to facilitate the cross-provincial passage of the elderly.

According to national regulations, it is not allowed to use "health code" as the only voucher for people to pass. For the elderly and other groups, alternative measures can be taken, such as registering with valid identity documents, passing through with paper documents, and showing "Traffic travel itinerary" as an auxiliary travel itinerary. Conditional regions and places should set up "no health code channels" for the elderly who do not use smart phones, and do a good job in service guidance and health verification.

On the premise of fully ensuring the security of personal information, we will promote the association of "health code" with ID card, social security card, old-age card and citizen card, and gradually realize "swipe card" or "brush face" access.

Breaking the "intelligence gap" of the elderly

In recent years, with the rapid development of digitalization and intelligence, people's travel, consumption and lifestyle have undergone tremendous changes. Among them, mobile phones are even laughed at as people's new "organs". However, when we are enjoying the convenience of the Internet, QR codes and smart products, and proudly moving towards the intelligent age, 250 million people are blocked from the door.

Statistics show that in 20 19, the population aged 60 and over in China has reached 250 million, including 654.38+800 million people aged 65 and over. It is estimated that by 2050, the elderly population in China will increase to 480 million. On the other hand, the latest Statistical Report on Internet Development in China shows that by June 2020, the number of netizens in China was 940 million, while the number of netizens aged 60 and above was only 10.3%, which means that most elderly people have never been exposed to the Internet.

In order to break the "intelligence gap" encountered by the elderly, the General Office of the State Council issued the "Implementation Plan on Effectively Solving the Difficulties of the Elderly in Using Intelligent Technology". The plan points out that the number of elderly people in China is growing rapidly, and many elderly people encounter the problem of "digital divide" in daily life scenes such as travel, medical treatment and consumption because they can't access the Internet and use mobile phones. In order to effectively solve the difficulties encountered by the elderly in using intelligent technology, the plan focuses on high-frequency matters and service scenarios in daily life, and puts forward 20 items.

At the same time, the plan requires that by the end of 2020, the level of intelligent services enjoyed by the elderly will be significantly improved, the convenience will be continuously improved, online and offline services will be more efficient and coordinated, and a long-term mechanism to solve the "digital divide" problem faced by the elderly will be basically established.
