"the two sides have sought to keep Hong Kong and trade issues separate, said Tu Xinquan of the University of International Business and Economics."

“China doesn’t want to connect the two things together,” said Tu. “China believes trade issues should not be politicized.”

"Trump has not devoted much attention to Hong Kong, and Chinese leaders likely understand he had little option politically but to sign the legislation. It’s not the first time Beijing has been incensed by U.S. moves on Taiwan and other issues."

“If the U.S. takes sanctions against Hong Kong based on those future reviews, China will take countermeasures,” he said. “The kind of measures will depend on how serious the U.S. actions are.”

"Nobel Prize winner Tu Youyou combed ancient Chinese texts for malaria cure"

"She scoured ancient texts and folk manuals and traveled to remote parts of the country for clues, ultimately collecting 2,000 potential remedies. She whittled these down to 380 and tested each one on mice."

"One of the compounds tested reduced the number of malaria parasites in the rodents' blood. Derived from sweet wormwood, its use as a treatment for malaria was first recorded in 1600 years ago in China, when a manual recommended drinking juice extracted from the plant."

"Her discovery resulted in the drug artemisinin – humankind's best defense against the mosquito-borne disease, which kills 450,000 people each year."

"On Monday, she was one of a trio of scientists awarded the Nobel Prize for medicine."
