The introduction of health code is to better understand people's health status. If it is used by people with ulterior motives, it will also affect the normal operation of society. In this incident, Feng Xianbin, executive deputy secretary of the Political and Legal Committee of Zhengzhou Municipal Committee and director of the social control headquarters of COVID-19 epidemic prevention and control headquarters, and other relevant personnel went to Zhengzhou without authorization to give red codes to depositors of some village banks, which triggered a hot discussion among netizens. It is not difficult to see from this incident that the greater the power in their hands, the greater the responsibility on their shoulders, and the improper use of their rights and interests will also affect their career.
What happened?
Villagers went to Zhengzhou to communicate, and depositors who had difficulty withdrawing money from village banks were forced to give them a red code, which triggered a hot discussion among netizens on the Internet. After the reporter learned, it was learned that some depositors in rural banks who were paid the red code were in low-risk areas. After arriving in Zhengzhou, their health codes turned red, and some of them had never been to Henan before scanning the Zhengzhou long code to turn red. After the incident, the local authorities immediately paid attention to it and punished the relevant personnel.
How should this matter be characterized?
As for the health code, it belongs to personal information. According to the relevant laws of our country, citizens' personal information, personal freedom and other rights are protected by law. The scope of use of health codes is limited to occasions directly related to epidemic prevention and control, and shall not be used for other purposes. In this incident, the manager discouraged others without authorization and paid others' health codes in red, which has been suspected of violating the personal information protection law, and of course may also touch the criminal law.
What is my personal opinion?
In my opinion, in the process of forcing public officials to pay the red code, there are behaviors of relevant enterprises seeking improper benefits and accepting bribes. At the same time, the established crime of accepting bribes must be severely punished according to law in order to better warn each other and ensure social stability. I believe that after this incident, the people involved will also realize their mistakes and will definitely turn over a new leaf in their later lives.
