Schools closed in Campania, toll-free chaos and test delays: towards the postponement of the opening

“The detection data will be reviewed by the Crisis Unit. If we have a high rate of positive children and teachers and we feel that safety at school is not guaranteed, I imagine the Crisis Unit can review the option to reopen. We are certainly not going to undo. This was stated by the councilor for education of the Campania region to Ansa Lucia Fortini watching the projection of bumblebees and school staff before reopening of the nursery and first class of primary school on November 24. “The screening procedure – he explains – is strategic for recovery, it will give us an image of the situation, but recovery is not mandatory. We closed first and then also closed in many other Regions, so we were right and now let’s reflect. This is a message that I also send to mothers who tell us that we are not reopening. I wonder where they were four weeks ago when the street demonstrations against Dad took place. I understand that there are concerned parents but I repeat to everyone that we will return to the classroom if there is safety to do so. I’m sorry to hear that we use children as guinea pigs, we move first in protecting health. For the nursery there will be no problems because it is not an obligation, for the primary we will find solutions so as not to force anyone. Some school directors are trying to orient themselves in a mixed didactics that they had tried even when schools were open with children in isolation to let them do a few hours at a distance.

“Everyone is calling the school’s toll-free number to find out about their swab or to explain that they have a fever and ask for advice. The number is only for screening, not for other information – continues Councilor Fortini – the operators tell me that of about six thousand calls so far, 70% are not for school tests. They call to find out the results of the swab, to say they have a fever and want a medical check-up. Those operators do not have data on swabs and are not medical, so that line should be left only for the reservation of the test. The jammed numbers are causing delays, and in fact even today there are not many swabs that have been made: “We have to do a screening – explains the commissioner – and we will, If it takes us a few more days, it won’t change much, the important thing is that we go back to school looking first at the right to health, given that we are in a pandemic ».
