>High-risk groups to be jabbed
重點人群接種新冠疫苗
China will start inoculating some key groups with COVID-19 vaccines during the winter-spring period, said a National Health Commission official on Saturday.
國家衛生健康委疾控局負責人崔鋼12月19日在新聞發布會上介紹,在冬春季節到來之際,我國將針對部分重點人群開展新冠病毒疫苗的接種工作。
In a two-step vaccination drive, the vaccines will be given first to priority groups, including those engaged in handling imported cold-chain products and people working in port inspection and quarantine, aviation, public transport, fresh markets, medical treatment, and disease control, Cui Gang, an official with the NHC's Disease Control Department, said at a press conference. The vaccination program also will cover those who plan to work or study in countries and regions with medium or high risks of exposure to the virus, Cui added.
崔剛表示,我國的疫苗接種工作將"兩步走"。第一步,主要是針對部分重點人群開展接種,這些人群包括從事進口冷鏈、口岸檢疫、航空空勤、公共運輸、生鮮市場、醫療疾控等領域的工作人員,以及前往中高風險國家或者地區去工作或者學習的人員。
Next, with COVID-19 vaccines officially approved to enter the market or the yield of vaccines improving steadily, China will put more vaccines into use, inoculating the eligible population as widely as possible, Cui said.
第二步,隨著疫苗獲批上市,疫苗產量逐步提高,將會有更多的疫苗投入使用,符合條件的群眾都能實現"應接盡接"。

To optimize the employment market, new policies have been reinforced to nurture high-quality and skilled workers.
為了優化就業市場,我國實施一批新的政策加快培養高素質勞動者和技術技能人才。
Tang Tao, vice-minister of human resources and social security, said at a news conference organized by the State Council Information Office on Friday that in the next five years vocational education will continue to be a vital way to produce high-quality and skilled workers.
在12月18日國新辦舉行的發布會上,人力資源社會保障部副部長湯濤介紹,未來五年將繼續把技工教育作為培養高素質勞動者和技術技能人才的重要抓手。
"So far, the nation has nearly 2,400 vocational schools with about 3.6 million students on campuses. What's important is that there are about 1 million vocational school graduates joining the group of skilled workers every year, so we have to make sure the educational instruction is done well," he said.
"目前技工學校接近2400所,在校生360萬,每年有100萬的技校畢業生進入產業工人和技術工人隊伍。這個工作要做好。"
In addition to enhancing vocational education, it's also of great importance to improve income for skilled workers to give them stronger incentives, he said.
他還表示,與提升技工教育同樣重要的是要改善他們的待遇,給予他們更多激勵。
According to the latest figures from the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, there are more than 200 million skilled workers on the Chinese mainland, among whom 50 million are highly skilled.
根據人社部最新數據,目前中國大陸的技能勞動者超過2億,其中高技能人才5000萬。
Skilled workers account for only about 26 percent of the total work force.
