  The Ministry of Education held a press conference on the 12th to introduce the progress of work such as the resumption of classes and campus epidemic prevention and control, college entrance examination enrollment and graduate employment. A reporter asked whether there are uniform requirements for students to wear masks while in school?

  In this regard, Wang Dengfeng pointed out that there are several prerequisites for the online statement that "elementary and middle school students can wear no masks at school": first, in low-risk areas; second, to ensure that everyone entering the campus is healthy; third, The prevention and control measures for outbreaks in schools should be put in place. For example, classrooms should be seated facing each other, facing teachers, and dormitories and canteens have relevant personnel distances and prevention and control requirements. After doing this, primary and secondary schools in low-risk areas can wear masks. In addition, it is not necessary to wear a mask on the sports training ground, but there is a requirement for the distance of personnel.

  Wang Dengfeng said that because college students have a large number of students, colleges and universities currently require masks in places where people are dense, such as in classrooms.

  Wang Dengfeng emphasized that it is not necessary to wear a mask under the premise of meeting the prevention and control conditions. If the prevention and control conditions cannot be met, they should be worn if they are uncomfortable. Many elementary school students may have to put in more effort to require them to strictly regulate the wearing of masks, and they must be reminded often, especially because of the epidemic. Lifestyle is crucial.

  "Since the epidemic is here, each of us needs to overcome some difficulties, including the difficulty of wearing masks in summer." Wang Dengfeng said.
