In the special year of 2020, during the fight against the new virus, China has used lots of powerful technologies. They help scientists find treatments for the virus, as well as control the infection(传染). In recent years, new technologies, such as supercomputers and drones(无人机),have made progress in China. Now they are playing a big role in fighting the new virus.
Supercomputers can run faster than ordinary ones. Supercomputers can also "analyze" the genetic data (基因数据) of the virus and help scientists learn more about the virus in order to make vaccines (疫苗). Chinese companies like Ten cent (腾讯) have opened up their supercomputers to scientists, helping them analyze medicine and find treatments for the virus.
Drones and robots are also giving a hand. They not only make work easier for people, but also prevent cross-infection (交叉感染). Chinese company DJI makes drones that can spray disinfectant(喷洒消毒剂) and give information. If people gather in large groups or do not wear masks, drones can warn them. The DJI drones have gone to more than 50 cities in 18 provinces.
Robots can do work at hospitals, as well as help delivery (快递) workers. For example, e-commerce company JD is using robots to send packages in Wuhan. Other robots bring medicine or meals to patients, conduit (进行) disinfection or check patients' body temperatures. Outside of hospitals, robots help check people's temperatures in public places like train stations and airports
