The school did not even start because the first infections among the teachers appeared in Galaţi. The director of a private institute, also a professor at a state institute, confirmed himself with Covid 19, after attending a meeting with 25 other colleagues.
Immediately, the two high schools switched to the red dash, and for the good of all, students will learn online only on Monday. There have been 1,311 new illnesses in the last 24 hours and 27 deaths.
The principal of the private high school in Galaţi, a pregnant woman, has been feeling ill since Wednesday. On Thursday, she was hospitalized with covid 19 at a city hospital. And her classmates, even from the state high school where she teaches, were on alert,.
Nicoleta Constantin, Principal of Marin Coman High School in Galați: “7 days ago I met with the teaching council under the following conditions: the activity was carried out in the schoolyard with all preventive measures, respecting the distance, everyone wore protective masks, disinfectants were used. The teacher who proved positive stayed for a very short time. “
Ionuț Atanasiu, Galați School Inspector General: “Since they were close to the lady at the time, Anghel Saligny’s management decision was to enter the red dash. Marin Coman High School also requested a similar scenario.”
All the teachers at the board meeting with the principal chose to isolate themselves.
Liliana Moise, Director of DSP Galați: “If they stayed within 2 meters, if they did not stay more than 15 minutes and if they used a mask, it is not considered direct contact”
Gabriel Avramescu, prefect of Galați: “The epidemiological investigation has not been completed so far. The person named 33 people as contacts. At the moment, the DSP is still determining which people will be isolated and which people will be quarantined.”
The students of the two institutes learned that as of Monday they will study exclusively online, at least for now. In Galaţi, 5 educational units will start the school year on the red screen. Another 25 schools and kindergartens will also have courses exclusively online, but for administrative reasons.
Fear of illness has led to the retirement of hundreds of teachers across the country, and in many places schools cannot find replacements.
Ionel Spânu, retired teacher: “I realized that it was my time to retire. Many years have passed, we have to trust that God is great, he does not leave us like this. In these circumstances, we must accept it. “
Nationwide, more than 12,000 schools will open on Monday. Instead, 238 schools will be closed and another 5,000 schools will take their students in shifts, for a week or two.
