“It will probably not reopen.” The governor of Campania Vincenzo De Luca put his hands out, as they say, and in the usual social intervention on Friday he prepared families for a postponement of the reopening on Tuesday, November 24, of kindergartens and first primary classes, such as provided for by regional ordinance number 90. On Monday, the Crisis Unit will decide definitively, but it seems clear that De Luca has already faced those who have to deal with numbers, statistics and contagion curves. The front of the no to the opening of schools on Tuesday is enriched with new protagonists, with the Campania section of the Italian Federation of Pediatricians on the one hand and the Anci Campania on the other, with numerous mayors of the Region who have already voted for one postponement at the end of the month, while in Pagani the return to classes is scheduled for January 11, 2021.

THE DECISIONS
The probability that the preschool and primary school will reopen on Tuesday in Campania is very low. The decision belongs to the regional crisis unit but during the live Facebook, De Luca expresses perplexity. “We have approved an ordinance that foresees the possibility of reopening kindergartens and the first primary schools on November 24, but we have subordinated this eventual opening to an epidemiological investigation,” he explains. “It’s possible, perhaps likely, that it won’t reopen when we plan to open. Right now we have a wave of requests not to open, parents are really concerned. The reopening for the 24th was a forecast but we will not open anything if we are not sure from the epidemiological point of view. The reopening is likely to be postponed for a week, setting up a new Crisis Unit showdown near the Dpcm deadline of December 3, putting decisions about the red zone and the school back in the hands of Prime Minister Conte.. “Students will return to the classroom if there is security to do so. We move first of all for the protection of health ”, reiterated the Regional Minister of Education. Lucia Fortini. However, if schools open, the risk that classrooms will be empty is very high since the adhesions of families that prefer to have their children at home with their father multiply.
THE NO OF ANCI AND FIMP
Confirming the fears of families with school-aged children to resume activities in the presence, there are pediatricians from the Campania section of the national Federation who have written to the Regional Crisis Unit. “It would be a very serious mistake to reopen the schools now and return to face-to-face teaching,” stress Antonio D’Avino and Giannamaria Vallefuoco de Fimp, aware that “the risk is given above all by contacts outside the school complexes, waiting of the beginning of the lessons “. or at the exit, when dozens and dozens of students come into contact with the adults who accompany or come to pick up their children. Anci Campania has also moved along the same lines, with the voice of President Carlo Marino asking to postpone the reopening on Tuesday, extending the closure until December 6 to complete the planned health examinations. The data show that the chain of infections encounters high-risk conditions at school (especially at the exit when students relax the distance). Those of ASL Napoli 1 show how infections multiplied from October 15 to 20, five days after the closure, among students (+ 93%), teachers (+217), collaborators (+ 5%) and close contacts (+ 30 %). Trends also confirmed by the report coordinated by Giuseppe Signoriello of the Vanvitelli University for the municipality of Naples, which until November 15 observed a sharp increase in cases in October in the range of 6 to 18 years “probably due to the start of activities schoolchildren “.
THE CLOSURE OF THE STATUTORY AUDITORS
Meanwhile, the list of mayors who oppose the reopening of schools, albeit partial, on Tuesday is being expanded. The ordinances signed so far extend the closure until the end of the month or until December 3, the end of the Dpcm, or directly until January, as happens to Pagani, which joins the thick branch of the non-Salerno. In the metropolitan city, schools will not open on Tuesday in the municipalities of Casandrino, Calvizzano, Melito, Cardito, Villaricca, Marano, Mugnano, Afragola and the entire Sorrento peninsula. Schools also closed in Irpinia and Caserta.
