Parents and teachers are quite concerned about the reopening of schools next Monday, January 8, due to the aggressive rise in coronavirus and flu cases.
The country’s children’s hospitals are in chaos. According to the Action 24 TV channel, more than 1,000 children come to them every 24 hours due to an explosive cocktail of coronavirus, flu and ODS. Moreover, the wait for an appointment with a doctor exceeds 8 hours. According to the same information, on January 3, 25 children with coronavirus, 10 with influenza and 7 with RSV were hospitalized at the Aglaia Kyriaki Children’s Hospital.
The ministries of health and education are collaborating to discuss the upcoming reopening of schools. At the same time, Deputy Minister of Health Irini Agapidaki announced today on the ANT1 channel that In the next few hours, EODY will make an announcement about the protective measures that must be observed by students and parents in view of the reopening of schools from Monday. The Deputy Minister called on all citizens to comply with personal protective measures, such as using a mask and washing your hands regularly.
For her part, Deputy Minister of Education Zetta Macri, speaking on Action24 yesterday, speaking about the opening of schools, noted that at the moment there is no reason to introduce measures such as the use of masks. Ms. Macri noted that during the holidays, students and teachers were “generally in contact” socially (i.e., not returning to school from an isolated environment). As the Ministry of Education noted, they are in standby mode and “there is no reason for alarm and, therefore, panic.”
The provision that will be made by the ministry will concern absence from work (school classes). In other words, the situation that still exists concerns absences due to Covid, which are registered but not taken into account (the test was done independently. But you need confirmation from doctors from the ICA and the issuance of a state-issued bulletin).
