Participate in the live broadcast of NTV Member of the Scientific Committee on coronavirus of the Ministry of Health, Prof. Dr. The highlights of Tevfik Özlü’s comments are as follows;
-I am a doctor, I will count the risks associated with opening schools. But this does not mean that schools are not open, they are open late. I have to express the danger, this is my responsibility. I talk about these risks, possibilities, but I am not a decision maker.
If I brake myself, the balance will not be good. What is the health risk; I will speak The public administration itself will make a decision.
The situation of schools in the world is not the same in all countries. Some values are mentioned, but they are not the same. There are some schools, some cultures, differences in life.
-It has been shown that the opening of schools did not contribute to the spread of the epidemic. The infection occurred within the school, but no common transmission was reported. There is no evidence of transmission from the school.
Schools are not considered places that should be closed primarily. Or it can be said as a priority for the opening. In Israel, for example, there is an increased risk of serious infections in schools. How is the situation with us? There is no data to support this. But I also read the studies on this topic in the world.
-The decision maker is the Ministry of Education. I’m a doctor, I’ll mention the risks associated with opening schools. But this does not mean that schools are not open, they are open late. I have to express the danger.
You know that there is a mutation in the virus and it is spreading all over the world. the cases were detected in Turkey. The characteristic of this is that more patients are seen at an early age and in infantile age, and that they progress slowly. Therefore, it seems like a greater threat that we cannot know more clearly.
– By bringing these three together, the Ministry of Education will decide. I had reservations about August 31st. Unfortunately, it was confirmed that these reserves would be closed again in the following period.
-I hope that if these steps are to be taken during this period, they will be taken with caution, gradually and without haste. Because the epidemic did not stop in the world.
-We closed schools, the number of cases was less than the current number of cases in Turkey. We closed schools at that time. The number of cases in Turkey is not reduced. The number of cases in the world is also much higher. The epidemic did not subside, it did not subside.
