Emphasizing the social distance and wearing masks in schools, the Deputy Minister of Health said: "If the implementation of health protocols by the school principal is weak, we may experience the sixth wave."
According to the social group of the Pouya Reporters Club; Kamal Heydari on the ambiguities raised in the reopening of schools, despite the fact that students under the age of 12 have not been vaccinated, said: "Except in a few countries, nowhere in the world has corona vaccination been performed for people under the age of 12; Because researchers believe that the human immune system at this age is responsible for fighting coronary heart disease, however, the Covid 19 National Scientific Committee did not reach a conclusion on vaccination under the age of 12, and if it does, the vaccination under the age of 12 will certainly succeed. It was done because stockpiles of vaccine were sufficient. This issue is under investigation.
He added: "Due to these conditions and the lack of vaccination coverage for children under 12 years of age, the need to follow health protocols in schools becomes more and more necessary."
The Deputy Minister of Health stated: "The concern is that the reopening of schools if they do not coordinate with the health sector and the schools have not announced their readiness to admit students in advance and have not been supervised and reviewed and will not receive the necessary permission." And on the other hand, if the observance and implementation of health protocols by the school principal, who is responsible for the implementation of these protocols, is faced with weakness, we will definitely suffer serious damage from this point and we may experience the sixth wave from this very point.
Social distancing and wearing masks are mandatory in schools
Heidari emphasized: "Our request is that the school teachers and students 'parents pay more attention to the students' observance of the protocols and repeatedly emphasize the necessary and sufficient training to the students and justify them well, and if they observe Students are said to have symptoms of the disease or to be in contact with people suspected of having the disease and to prevent them from going to school. Social distancing and wearing masks are mandatory in schools. Fortunately, students over the age of 12 are currently vaccinated, and those under the age of 12 who have not yet been vaccinated will not have to worry if they follow the protocols well.
