Bringing unique "lecture halls" to the elderly

In the cold winter, the outdoor activities of middle-aged and elderly people decrease, the amount of sunlight decreases, and the bone strength decreases at an accelerated rate. In addition, the thick and long winter clothing makes it inconvenient to move around, and the wet and slippery rainy and snowy road surface greatly increases the risk of fractures among middle-aged and elderly people. Director Zhao Changgeng led a medical team to provide knowledge on the prevention, treatment, and health care of winter fractures for middle-aged and elderly people.
