A
Healthy people who catch A(H1N1) flu do not need antivirals like Tamiflu, but the young, the old and the pregnant(怀孕的) surely do, the World Health Organization declared Friday in new advice to doctors.
The UN health agency said people who are otherwise healthy with mild to moderate cases of A (H1N1) flu don't need the popular drug. But people thought to be at risk for complications(并发症) from A (H1N1) flu—children less than five years old, pregnant women, people over age 65 and those with other health problems like heart disease or HIV—should definitely get the drug.
The WHO also recommended that all patients, including children, who have severe or worsening cases of A (H1N1) flu, with breathing difficulties, chest pain or severe weakness, should get Tamiflu immediately.
The advice contradicts(与……矛盾) some current government policies, such as those in England, whose health agency liberally hands out Tamiflu to healthy people with A(H1N1) flu cases; Tamiflu has been available to anyone suspected of having the disease, including healthy people.
At its summer peak, there were about 110 000 new cases of A(H1N1) flu, also known as swine flu, every week in Britain. Boasting that Britain had the world's largest supply of Tamiflu, enough to cover 80 percent of its nearly 61 million people, Andy Burnham promised the drug would be available to anyone who needed it. Britons who call the national flu line can get Tamiflu without ever seeing a doctor—it is given out by call center operators who have no medical training.
Some experts have criticized that approach, warning that blanketing the population with Tamiflu increases the chances of resistant strains emerging. Flu expert Hugh Penington of the University of Aberdeen called the strategy “a very big experiment” and said England's approach was out of step with the rest of the world. WHO said most patients infected with A(H1N1) flu worldwide recover within a week without any medical treatment.

A．pregnant women
B．children under five

China news, Beijing, Feb. 9—Housing price in China has always aroused heated discussions among property developers and ordinary Chinese. To many property developers and local government officials, housing price in China is still low compared with many developed countries. However, the average housing price in the United States is only 8 000 yuan per square meter, while in China, it is even higher than in the United States. This shows that there are some bubbles(泡沫) in Chinese real estate market, the International Finance News reported.
Although the average price of residential houses in the United States, after converted to Renminbi, is about 8 000 yuan per square meter, the houses in the US are not sold in terms of building area, as most Chinese property developers do when they sell their houses. If US property developers sell their houses according to the building area, then the housing price will be even lower than 8 000 yuan per square meter. In most big Chinese cities, such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Shenzhen, houses are sold at a price even higher than those in the US.
The high housing sales price in large cities in China proves that Chinese real estate market does have some bubbles. Moreover, Chinese houses can not be compared with houses in the US in terms of building quality, environment and supporting facilities. Furthermore, it should be noted that American people's average income is several dozen times higher than that of Chinese people. How can the Chinese afford to buy a house which is even more expensive than that sold in the US?
At the beginning of 2007, Chinese government issued a set of policies that aimed to benefit the public. Now in order to reduce the high housing prices, the government can regulate(控制) the real estate market by raising tax on property industry and controlling the release of loans and lands to property developers. At the same time, the government should allow people to build
more houses through various fund?raising channels, such as funds collected from buyers or raised by working units. By applying these multiple means, it is expected that the high housing prices can be lowered.
