A child with fever and the alarm rings in one Crema nursery by suspected Covid-19. It happened last Friday morning when a small student from the municipal preschool Iside Franceschini he was feverish. It was the boy’s parents who took the temperature at home and alerted the school. The result of the hyssop is expected by Tuesday afternoon, the whole class has been in solitary confinement for four days. Everything happened according to the protocol of Ats Valpadana, which requires the emergence of a suspected case that contacts must be isolated until positivity is verified.

Suspicious case of Covid-19 in the Crema kindergarten

“It was conceivable that, with such young children, a case of low-grade fever could soon occur that would induce doctors to do a swab,” he confirmed. the mayor of Crema, Stefania Bonaldi. According to the Ats protocol, which applies a DGR dated 7.5.2020 (3114), at the beginning of the suspected case, all close contacts, therefore also classmates and teachers, must be “isolated” and this is the procedure that the school. activated since Friday afternoon, pending the result of the swab ”.

Distribute: Isolation only with positive buffer more compatible with school dynamics

The first citizen expressed his own doubts about the sustainability of this protocol. “The ministerial indications (Health, Education and IIS) for the management of Covid in schools do not regulate the pre-buffer phase, but establish the isolation of the class only after the positive result of the same. Which is perhaps more compatible with school dynamics, because in a class, especially for the little ones, there will always be a child with some symptoms similar to Covid. I personally brought this, in my opinion, incongruity to the attention of the General Director of Ats Salvatore Mannino and the Director Giulio Gallera, both have captured the positive and concrete spirit of the observation and the commissioner has expressed an indication of why the regional technicians “coordinate” the regional standard with ministerial provisions. Until new official regulations we will abide by the current Ats protocol, hoping in any case that for school swabs there will be at least preferential channels, because otherwise there will soon be paralysis ”.
