Back to school amidst a thousand unknowns. What you can do: Dad, quarantines, Ffp2

After the New Year and with the Epiphany now approaching, we are already thinking about returning to school, in a situation that becomes more complex every hour, due to the resurgence of infections (those certified yesterday to a new record of 144 thousand).

The return to the stalls is in fact put at risk by the holidays we are leaving behind. The Christmas effect was revealed in the week before the New Year, so to assess the damage of the New Year’s Eve festivities it will be necessary to wait a few days until Epiphany. Many regions have already extended the return to school from 7 to 10 January.

The Omicron variant does not give you peace of mind and the return in the presence appears increasingly at risk, even if the alternative of the No one wants her dad. The school node was the focus of a meeting of the Ministers of Education Patrizio Bianchi and of Health Roberto Speranza with the President of the Conference of Regions Massimiliano Fedriga to evaluate the da Fari.

Bianchi firm on returning to attendance

Minister Bianchi, as repeated several times, wants to avoid Dad at all costs. “For the government it is essential to protect face-to-face teaching”, said the head of the Dicastery of Via Venti Settembre on several occasions.

Speranza is aiming for a reinforced Green Pass

Minister Speranza, for his part, is weighing the extension of the “strengthened” Green Pass. The Minister stated that at the moment “it is a priority to reduce the area of ​​the unvaccinated and to further enlarge that of the vaccinated in order not to overload the hospitals” and that it is necessary to consider “both the extension of the obligation to all and the extension of the green pass strengthened to the world of work “.

The proposal of the Regions

The Regions, considering that last December 27 started the vaccination campaign for the baby range (5-11 years), which covers both elementary and sixth grade, have proposed new rules for infections at school.
For the vaccinated no quarantine, but only self-surveillance with double test over a period of 5 days (T0-T5), for the unvaccinated a 10-day quarantine, with lessons in Dad and final test at the end of the ‘isolation.

Among other measures …

There are also a series of other proposals that the Ministry of Education would be considering , such as the possibility to provide all institutions with Ffp2 masks to be distributed to students and school staff for free.
And again, some regions are considering providing quick free tests to the entire student population to increase tracking and reduce infections.
