Presence Yes or no? Or a mixture of both, with or without a mask … There are many variables and measures to go back to school. In Germany, the mask will be mandatory, there will be ventilation every 20 minutes and face-to-face classes in primary and secondary, unless a case of coronavirus is detected, in which the entire classroom will be quarantined.
In neighboring France, there are four levels of prevention and it will only be compulsory to physically go to class in primary school. There will be no quarantine even if a student tests positive. Italy, for its part, has implemented a formula equivalent to the compulsory vaccination against COVID-19 for teachers.
Meanwhile, whether the children are vaccinated with the coronavirus or not is up for debate. In the UK, the covid vaccine is not recommended for healthy children under the age of twelve. In addition, on the other side of the Atlantic, Cuba will be the first country in the world to immunize from two years. “Every drop of the vaccine is experience,” they say from the Caribbean country.
Be that as it may, for the WHO, going back to school is a priority as it may have serious consequences for future generations. “We are very concerned about the mental impact that the pandemic may be having on children.”
In Indonesia, strict protocol that contemplates the permanent mask and the total ban to speak or sing. And in China, a kind of health passport will be mandatory for students and teachers.
