Child with fever in a kindergarten in Crema, isolation is activated for all. The Mayor: “Pre-buffer rules are not clear”

A child has the temperature and take theisolation for the whole class and for the teachers. It happened last Friday at Iside Franceschini nursery, formerly Montessori, by Cream, where, in the face of a “fever” manifested by a small pupil, the procedure foreseen by theAts Valpadana. The child’s companions, who had the temperature. more than 37.5 degrees – stayed at home on the recommendation of the principal, who contacted all the families in the class one by one. However, the school remained open to the other children and to the other teachers who continued to teach regularly. the the child’s swab was negative, so from September 9 everyone, teachers and students, they can go back to class.

The isolation, however, has posed a not insignificant problem, which has pushed Mayor Stefania Bonaldi to ask for clarification: “According to the Ats protocol, which applies the resolution of the regional council (3114 of last May 7), before the occurrence of a suspicious case all close contacts, therefore also colleagues and teachers, should be isolated pending the result of the swab ”. And this is the procedure that the school activated on Friday afternoon. “However – continues Bonaldi – the ministerial indications for the management of Covid in schools they do not regulate the pre-buffer phase, ma establish isolation just from class after successful Of the same”.

An incongruity that the mayor has made known to both the director of Ats Valpadana Salvatore mannino both of themregional health councilor Giulio Gallera, who got in touch with Stefania Bonaldi. “I spoke with the commissioner – explains the first citizen of Crema – who understood that there is indeed a problem. Yesterday afternoon there was a meeting in the Region with the directors of the Ats but we await clear indications, in black and white ”.

The problem lies precisely in the administrative documents. In regional council resolution, it is written that in the case of a suspicious case the “doctor is obliged to organize the isolation of the patient and his relatives / partners and work contacts”. On the contrary, the relationship ofFaculty of Health (Iss) mentions: “If the test is positive, the case is notified and the search for contacts and extraordinary actions to clean up the school structure in its interested party begins.” There Lombardy region has already committed to coordinate this protocol with ministerial and ISS guidelines, govern the tracking and isolation of close contacts alone in the case of a successful of the tampon, and not during the waiting period like the Ats.

On the case, the mayor of the city is ready for battle: “For school swabs there should be at least gods preferential channels to speed up the times, because otherwise it will soon be there paralysis. We need to clear up the pre-swab issue in a short time because in a class, especially for the little ones, there will always be a child with some Symptom similar to covid. At this point, if these are the rules, it did not do much to reopen the schools because soon we will have dozens of classes closed due to suspected infection.
