How will the antigen tests be divided? This is the problem parents expect Israel today

The next day, the education plan will take effect, but the distribution of tests is currently seen as a major obstacle. • The IDF Spokesman noted:


Get ready to stand in line.

The next day, the education plan will come into force, according to which about 3 million students will have to take antigen tests twice a week.

Already on the first day, millions of parents will have to perform tests on their children, but the distribution of tests currently seems to be a major obstacle and a expectation of real chaos.


In recent days there have been disagreements over who should distribute the tests to parents - while the education system practices distribution and holds tests - the biggest problem is among half a million toddlers and children between the ages of three and three who are educated in private settings (kindergartens, daycare centers, nurseries).

This means that the parents will not receive the tests at the daycare center, but will have to collect them when no one still knows where they are from.

Although the Ministry of Education has accepted responsibility for early childhood, ministry officials admit that they have only partial information about these frameworks (for years the information was not collected at the Ministry of Welfare and the Ministry of Economy), in an attempt to mitigate the disorder Responsibility for Home Front Command.

An IDF spokesman noted last night that: "The responsibility for the assistance has been transferred to the Home Front Command in the last few hours and will begin with the receipt of the list of those eligible.

The Home Front Command will assist the local authorities in distributing antigen kits for children up to the age of three. "

It is estimated that in Israel there are about 10,000 private settings for birth students up to three, but no one knows the exact details of them.

For this reason, the only way to distribute the tests to parents would be at city stations as they used to be - which at the time led to a serious mess, donor and parents who simply gave up and did not collect the tests.

The problem is not only in the private kindergartens, but also supervised subsidized day care centers such as WIZO, Naamat, Emuna, etc. claim that although their information is exposed and known, they were not tested until the daycare center opens as in the municipal kindergartens.

Recall, according to the program, students who have been exposed to a verified student will no longer be required to enter isolation - even if they are not vaccinated or recovering (exemption from isolation).

Students throughout the education system will be required to perform two home antigen tests a week - on Sundays and Wednesdays, before school day.

A student whose home test result is negative will come to the educational institution.

On the other hand, a student whose home test result is positive will not attend school and will be examined at a supervised test station (institutional antigen).

If the test result is negative - the student will return to school straight away.

If the result of the supervised test is positive - the student will perform five full days of isolation until recovery (subject to home tests on days 4 and 5 and a negative result in both).

Were we wrong?

Fixed!
