The Minister of Health discusses with those responsible for all RHI a common protocol of action in cases of COVID during the school year

The number of people infected with coronavirus in intensive care units is decreasing.

This was reported by the directors of the regional sanitary inspections to Minister Kostadin Angelov. He did a video conference with them. There is no tendency to increase the total number of infected, says the press center of the Ministry of Health.

174 new confirmed cases were reported by the national information portal on September 17, three were new victims. There are 43 people in intensive care.

However, the infection increasingly enters schools and kindergartens with the start of the school year. Due to the different reactions of the RHI

will be written

additional

guidelines

General rules were established weeks ago on how RHIs work in children and teachers infected with coronavirus. However, it turned out that not all followed. We have been working in a common framework not only since the beginning of the COVID epidemic, but annually, in the implementation of the sanitary control of infectious diseases. But the ministry will prepare additional guidelines to facilitate and refine the activities of RHI employees, Professor Angelov said.

“We want RHI to have a unified approach to quarantine prescriptions and examination of contact persons in schools and in the families of students and teachers. This, of course, is difficult given that epidemiological studies depend on a series circumstances such as the establishment of first and second line contacts, the presence of symptoms of coronavirus infection, information on social contacts, etc., he added. Therefore, the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Education and Science, as well as The other institutions involved have also developed detailed guidelines for work during the school year.

After the identification of 8 infected teachers in the 55th school in the capital, “Petko Karavelov” yesterday began testing contact students. The list sent to the RHI is for 70 students, but only yesterday

8 children gave

samples. All

they are negative

Parents will be tested only if the child tests positive. The school remains open.

“We have gone to great lengths to ensure the safety of our children,” said Principal Tanya Ivancheva. There are 6 open entrances and division of sectors, markings inside the corridors and hallways to the classrooms, discrepancies between breaks and 4 different schedules for the schedules so that the flows do not occur.

Teachers unofficially comment on social media that the cases are much more than publicly known. They also knew of their infected classmates from other schools in the capital.

An entire class from the language school in Stara Zagora was also quarantined after an 11th grader tested positive. The child feels fine, realizing that he is ill, after having a PCR test with his parents to travel to Greece.

The samples from the Orizovo closed kindergarten staff are negative. There are no other infected among the staff of the “Banner of Peace” kindergarten in Stara Zagora, of which 2 groups are in quarantine.
