FOLLONICA – An elementary school class in via Buozzi has been closed for Covid. In fact, the ASL of Grosseto has registered a positive child and, therefore, the manager has communicated the home isolation (quarantine) for 10 days, until the completion of the diagnostic tests of the class and the school personnel involved.

Therefore, teaching activities are suspended: Follonica’s class is one of the first to adopt a quarantine reduced to 10 days compared to the 14 so far regulated. In fact, the new circular of the Ministry of Health has foreseen 10 days of isolation of the last positive contact for asymptomatic patients and a single negative swab to be able to return to school or, in any case, to resume normal activities.

Meanwhile, the other classes can continue to follow the lessons safely.

“I am very sorry about what is happening in one of our schools – says the mayor Andrea Benini – A great effort was made over the summer to prepare the school for a safe restart, with the utmost attention to adherence to protocols by all school personnel. School today is a place of absolute safety thanks to this great work, if anything we must show a great commitment and sense of responsibility for everything that is outside the school, starting with the precautions we must take every day: from use of the mask. attention to personal distancing. With these situations, I imagine, we will have to face more and more in the coming months, situations that are nevertheless rigorously managed by the school and the Local Health Authority, with the collaboration of the municipal administration ”.

“I regret to have to communicate that today it was necessary to close the class of the Primary School” Buozzi “- says the director of the Integral Institute” Leopoldo II di Lorena ” Paola Brunello – the families were notified immediately, the girls and boys returned to their homes, like their teachers.

It is the first class to be placed in fiduciary isolation in Follonica and it is a record that we really wanted to avoid. However, I can assure families that all other classes can attend school regularly and that we will scrupulously follow, as has been done so far, all the safety protocols that we have adopted.

I can tell the children who stay at home that it will be our care that the school remains present in their daily lives ”.
