Kindergarten teachers, staff, and group parents – self-isolated
The National Center for Public Health (NVSC) urgently urged the entire nursing team, including educators and assistants, to be quarantined for 14 days. On Monday, the NVSC called the parents of the children in the group and asked that they be isolated for two weeks.
Parents asked if they had interacted with the infected child, but did not even know who the child was because the kindergarten had not informed him under the personal protection requirements.
According to the kindergarten, the parents could not have direct contact with the child, since they left the offspring at the door of the institution in the morning and picked them up in the afternoon when they played outside. The children, of course, may have had close contact.
Kindergarten parents reported that the Covid-19 test for the student will be repeated and cannot be confirmed.

On Monday morning, the Ministry of Health and NVSC announced that 15 new cases of Covid-19 had been registered in the country. On Tuesday, the NVSC announced tv3.lt that the Vilkpėdė kindergarten student is one of 15 cases reported Monday morning.

On Tuesday afternoon, the NVSC reported that a Covid-19 case was detected last Saturday in a wolf nursery at a nursery.
“The director of the Vilkpėdė kindergarten was contacted, the contact persons (children, employees) were identified, all were contacted and explained that they would have to isolate themselves for 14 days, all signed consents.
The werewolf nursery was instructed to disinfect the facility. Everyone who has been in contact is informed that they should monitor their health and request an examination for symptoms, “replied Akvilė Sakalauskaitė, Senior Specialist in the Communicable Disease Management Division of the Vilnius Department of the NSC.
Kindergarten director: the mother had a negative test and the child a positive test
L. Banaitienė, director of the Vilkpėd jardín kindergarten, stated that on Monday she received unexpected news from NVSC that a Covid-19 case had been identified for her student.
“It was like a message or thunder from a clear sky. The boy was asymptomatic, with nothing. Preparations for elective surgery were made, tests were performed, and a negative test was performed on the mother and a positive test on the child. That Covid-19 test should now be done before any surgery.
We get a call from NVSC fast enough with all the instructions and actions we need to take. In order for us to isolate the group, we had to send the contacts of all the parents whose children had direct contact with that child. NVSC specialists contacted parents and gave them all instructions on what to do.
Now we are all waiting, that group is isolated for 14 days, until July 31. The tutor and the tutor’s assistant do not work either, they are isolated at home. Educators have registered for the test and will do so on Thursday.
Throughout the summer, we follow the recommendations in place during quarantine to prevent parents from being admitted to institutions, and educators greet children at the door. We will continue to do so. We put disinfectant mats everywhere on the door. Disinfectants are everywhere. The Educator’s Assistant disinfects all surfaces. We disinfect that group, remove the bedding, ventilate it and close it. We will disinfect and clean everything again before the children return.
All the children were healthy and no one felt any symptoms. Now all parents are watching responsibly and are not taking children with a runny nose or other symptoms to kindergarten, “he said.
I didn’t feel any symptoms
The director of the kindergarten said the message to the family of the infected boy was unexpected and no one felt any symptoms of coronavirus.
“I feel like this was also unexpected for the family, because the whole family has not felt any symptoms so far.” We don’t know and parents don’t know where this is from. They are very eager to do a new test because all kinds of thoughts arise, maybe that test is inaccurate. We know that the father of that family has registered to take the test in the near future.
The other parents reacted very calmly when we asked that the children be picked up by that group as soon as possible so that we could do things right. Other groups are working because there were no recommendations to close the entire kindergarten, because the case is unique and asymptomatic, we simply closed that group according to the recommendations, the teachers and an employee were isolated, now we are waiting for more information, “he said. the director L. Banaitienė.
