Due to the prevailing situation in Corona, the decision of the state government to start schools and colleges in Gujarat from November 23 has been postponed for the time being.
From the very beginning, the parents were angry about starting school
The government's decision to start schools in Gujarat from November 23 had already sparked outrage among parents and guardians. The All Gujarat Board of Governors (AVB) demanded the withdrawal of the decision to start schools and expressed support for the November 23 school closure announcement.
Data so far indicate that children under the age of 18 represent about 8.5% of reported cases, with fewer deaths compared to other age groups and generally mild disease. However, cases of serious illness have been reported. As with adults, pre-existing medical conditions have been suggested as a risk factor for serious disease and intensive care admissions in children.
Whether a child should go to school depends on their health status, the current transmission of COVID-19 in their community, and the protective measures taken by the school and the community to reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission. Current evidence suggests that the overall risk of serious disease for children is lower than that of an adult, special care may be taken to reduce the risk of infection in children, and the benefits of returning to school should also be considered.
People over the age of 60 and those with an underlying health condition have an increased risk of serious disease and death. The decision to return to the teaching environment is based on the individual and should take into account local disease trends, as well as measures to prevent further spread to schools.
The following criteria are recommended for the use of masks in schools in countries or areas where there is intense community transmission of COVID-19 and in settings where physical distance cannot be achieved:
1. Children under the age of 5 should not be required to wear a mask.
2. For children aged six to 11 years, considering the risk-based approach, the decision to use a mask should apply to:
Evidence of the severity of transmission in the area where the child is and the risk of infection and transmission in this age group.
Beliefs, customs and behaviors.
The child's ability to use the mask properly and adhere to the availability of adult supervision.
Potential effect of wearing a mask on education and development.
Additional consideration such as sports activities or disabled children or underlying diseases.
12. Children and adolescents 12 years of age or older should follow the National Mask Guidelines for Adults.
Teacher. Teachers and support staff may need to wear masks when they cannot guarantee a distance of at least 1-meter from others or have extensive transmission in the area.
Types of masks:
Fabric masks are recommended to prevent further transmission to the general population in public areas, especially where distance is not possible, and in areas of community transition. This may include the school grounds in some situations. Masks can help protect others, as wearers can become infected before symptoms appear. The policy of wearing a mask or face cover should be in accordance with national or local guidelines. Where used, the mask should be worn, cared for and disposed of properly.
Yes, ensure adequate ventilation and, if possible, increase the total airflow supply to the occupied areas. Clean, natural ventilation (i.e., opening windows) should be used wherever possible, indoors, without re-circulating air. If heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems are used, they should be regularly inspected, maintained and cleaned. Strict standards for installation, maintenance and filtration are essential to ensure it is effective and safe. Consider operating systems at maximum outside airflow, after occupying the building and two hours before, according to the manufacturer's recommendations.
