We are in an intimate and permanent relationship with the Ministry of Health and we are following the protocols that they mark us, it is a stage of containment, it is not an issue that arrives at school, but if there were a case that would affect any student in any school in the country, we already have a protocol to act immediately, at that time we would ask that the school be closed in that case, ”explained the official.
