In five pupils attending Modena schools (“G. Pascoli” primary school, “San Carlo” secondary school, “Wiligelmo” state scientific secondary school and “E. Fermi” state industrial technical institute) and an institute in Carpi (Instituto Commercial Technician “Meucci”).
The Directorate of the USL of Modena reports that cases of positivity to covid-19 have been found in five students from schools in Modena (Elementary school “G. Pascoli ”,” San Carlo “High School,” Wiligelmo “State Scientific High School and” E. Stop “) and an institute in Carpi (“Meucci” Commercial Technical Institute). The five had been identified as close contacts of positive cases in the after-school setting and were already in home isolation: in fact, it is likely that the positivity is attributed to different outbreaks diagnosed in recent days.
As soon as the news of the positivity was heard, the Modena Local Health Authority immediately notified the schools they attended; Representatives of the Covid school promptly provided the list of students and operators and the Department of Public Health is communicating with all families: the students of the classes attended by the 5 positive cases were placed as a precaution in isolation and placed control panel, while school operators were offered the opportunity to perform samples without the need for isolation, due to the low probability of contagion among students of these age groups and school personnel.
Based on regional indications and swab results, the Department of Public Health will evaluate any additional measures.
