At the same time, he emphasized the need to promote the vaccination of teachers in a timely manner. «It would be a “free gift” to do this in the spring or early summer.”, Affirmed during the week the president of OLME, Theodoros Tsouchlos.
OLME calls for immediate, free, massive and repeated Covid tests in schools for teachers and students and that measures be taken “for the effective follow-up of cases and not to upload this process to teachers.”
