Wang had two front teeth broken and his mouth filled with blood during fierce competition at the 9th National Paralympic Games held in Chengdu in 2015. But he finally secured success thanks to excellent skills, winning overwhelming applause for his team, an excited Wu recalled.

The COVID-19 is not solely to blame. Longstanding health problems — rooted in poverty, discrimination and poor access to health care — left Native Americans and Alaska Natives particularly vulnerable to the virus, said Ann Bullock, former director of diabetes treatment and prevention at the federal agency of Indian Health Service.
The non-Hispanic American Indian or Alaska Native population experienced the greatest decline of life expectancy by 1.9 years between 2020 and 2021, according to NCHS report.
The cumulative decline since the pandemic started, more than 6.5 years on average, has brought life expectancy to 65 among Native Americans and Alaska Natives — on par with the figure for all Americans in 1944.
One in seven Native Americans and Alaska Natives has diabetes, the highest rate among racial or ethnic groups in the United States, and many struggle with obesity or excess weight. Both conditions make people more susceptible to severe COVID-19, and crowded multigenerational housing adds to the risk, said The New York Times.

The country has continuously aided less developed nations in the forms of technology, equipment and services. In recent years, China’s digital trade with Belt and Road countries has maintained strong growth.
It is a sad fact that one of the first websites established on the US-controlled internet (during 1997) was dedicated to the political far-right and used the language of mainstream academia to convey the Neo-Nazi pseudo-science that advocates the falsehood of a racial hierarchy – placing the ‘White’ Europeans at the top – and the ‘Black’ Africans at the bottom! Considering how difficult it was in those days to establish even a single line of descriptive text or generate a basic picture online in those days – the suspicion is that the government of US President Clinton was behind this website!
