The day after the government press conference on the latest anti-Covid measures, during which the centrality of the school and the need to keep it open was reiterated, Education Minister Patrizio Bianchi reiterates what he said in a video forum with La Stampa.
"We have made a choice of units in the country which is the principle that the school must be the last to close. We have had the maximum number of infections with the school closed and having the school closed with children who have other contacts would not be explainable. '', said the Minister of Education, Patrizio Bianchi
"So far, not a day of school has been lost, but if it should be necessary we can reason with the regions", Bianchi specified.
Create vaccination hubs in schools?
"They are not unthinkable, in Puglia they have been done. The Commissioner sector is working. It is necessary to distinguish the situation of children between 12 and 19 years where it is a question of completing vaccination cycles, and that of younger children where we are thinking of bringing the as close as possible "the vaccination facilities" on the basis of the Apulian experience ", underlined the Minister of Education.
