Covid in schools: what are the three measures announced by Castex on the health protocol?

In an attempt to calm the discontent of teachers because of the school’s health protocol against Covid, Prime Minister Jean Castex, guest of France 2 this Monday, January 10, announced new measures to simplify the constraints weighing on students and their parents.

Ads to try to calm the situation, two days before a strike call in primary and elementary schools, to protest against a heavy health protocol. Jean Castex, guest of France 2 this Monday, January 10, has indeed unveiled three measures to simplify this protocol and try to relieve the parents, who must respect binding rules in the event of a positive case in the class.

The school health protocol will be simplified:
– if a positive case is detected in a class, the students can stay there until the end of the day
– 3 self-tests negative will suffice for contact cases
– only one parental certificate will be necessary. pic.twitter.com/58zh8BWw3k

Because behind strict measures, the objective displayed by the government is clear, and Jean Castex once again reminded us this Monday evening: “to leave the schools open as much as possible”. Here are the three relaxations announced by Jean Castex concerning the health protocol at school.

Possibility of waiting for the exit if the child is sick contact

“When a positive case is found in a class, we ask all the children to be tested. From now on, we will wait for the release of the establishment school , we will not call the parents immediately, “said Jean Castex.

Three free self-tests

“Today, the child in contact must undergo three tests, including a PCR or an antigen. I have asked the scientific and health authorities to be able to use three self-tests, which will have an effect on the queues in front of pharmacies. The self-test is less invasive than the others. ” And the minister added that these three self-tests will be completely free for them. Matignon, interviewed by France Télévisions, confirmed that if a student is positive in a class, a contact case certificate will be issued to parents, thus allowing them to have access to these three free self-tests in pharmacies. Regarding saliva tests, the Prime Minister on the other hand ruled out, considering that they were more of a prevention tool.

A certificate instead of three

“This time, we will only ask only a test certificate, once and for all instead of three . ” “This week, 11 million self-tests will be delivered to pharmacies” also indicated the Prime Minister.

unions are not satisfied, call to strike maintained

Guislaine David, co-secretary general, spokesperson for SNUipp-FSU reacted on France Info after the intervention of Jean Castex. The teachers’ union, which calls for a national strike movement this Thursday, January 13, confirms its dissatisfaction. She denounces that these announcements are made overnight without consultation with the teaching staff and that the government lightens the protocol while the cases continue to explode. “The teachers who were able to hear the Prime Minister this evening announce yet another protocol relief, while we are asking for greater health security in schools, will not be able to be satisfied,” she explained. For her, relaxing the protocol can only increase the number of contaminations. The call to strike this Thursday is maintained. For its part, the FCPE, the main federation of parents of pupils, calls on parents not to put their children in school on that day.
