  After a lapse of several months, the Ministry of Education ushered in the first press conference after the outbreak of the new coronary pneumonia on the 12th. At this moment, the epidemic prevention and control has entered a normal stage. Under the careful deployment of all regions, large and elementary schools are starting classes and returning to school in an orderly manner.

  Watching the lively students flood into the campus and the sound of reading in the classroom again, the whole society is more concerned about the question: how does the campus epidemic prevention and control work start after the school resumes? How can students be allowed to study and live in school safely and worry-free? What other risk points need attention? In response, Wang Dengfeng, the director of the Office of the Leading Group for New Coronary Pneumonia Epidemic Work and Director of the Department of Physical Health and Art Education, gave an authoritative answer.

  39% of over 100 million students return to school

  A series of figures show that the work of starting classes and returning to class is gradually on the right track.

  "As of May 11, the total number of students who have started resumption of classes is 107.792 million, which has exceeded 100 million, and the proportion of resumption is 39%. Among them, 56.361 million are high schools, including 21.61 million high schools, 3.27 million secondary schools, and 3148 junior high schools. Tens of thousands of people; 43.844 million elementary schools; 4.68 million kindergartens; 2.907 million high schools. "Wang Dengfeng said that in the resumption of primary and secondary schools, 31 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities across the country and the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps high school section have begun resumption. In 29 junior high schools, 29 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities and the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps began to go back to school. There are 24 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities in the secondary vocational schools and the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps resume their studies. 21 primary schools and 21 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities and Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps returned to school to resume school. Kindergarten has returned to school in 8 provinces.

  Wang Dengfeng said that in terms of college resumption, Tianjin, Shanxi, Inner Mongolia, Liaoning, Jilin, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui, Fujian, Jiangxi, Henan, Hunan, Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan, Chongqing, Sichuan, Guizhou, Yunnan, Tibet, Shaanxi Universities in 26 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities in Gansu, Qinghai, Ningxia, Xinjiang and Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps began to return to school. "At present, the universities have not yet started school, leaving only five provinces and cities, namely Beijing, Hebei, Shandong, Hubei and Heilongjiang."

  However, Wang Dengfeng also reminded that at present, the entire education system has 278 million students plus 17 million faculty and staff, and there is one confirmed case, which is a related case imported from outside Heilongjiang Province. There are 14 asymptomatic patients who are undergoing medical observation. "The education system has 43 cases imported from abroad, and all of them have been cured and discharged."

  Large-scale personnel movement and gathering bring serious challenges

  "Although the national epidemic prevention and control has achieved decisive victory, the pressure of overseas imports continues to increase, the sporadic sporadic and local clustering cases, asymptomatic infections and many uncertainties, especially after the school starts, Large-scale personnel movement and personnel gathering activities have brought more severe challenges to our school opening work and epidemic prevention and control. "Wang Dengfeng said that the comprehensive resumption of classes from primary and secondary schools to colleges and universities brings a larger range and larger scale of personnel Mobility, student gathering activities, and management of foreign students have brought new risks to school epidemic prevention and control. The education system epidemic prevention and control has changed from "positional warfare" before the start of school to "sport warfare".

  He said that the risk of sudden cluster epidemic situation increased, and emergency response needs to be further strengthened. The number of students returning to school nationwide is expected to reach 150 million to 200 million by the end of May. The more students returning to school, the harder it is to prevent and control the "hard requirements" such as the distance of personnel in various activities, and the probability of emergencies increases. In particular, the continuous emergence of asymptomatic infections in China brings the potential risk of the epidemic rebounding to return to school.

  At the same time, the weather is also a factor that needs to be focused on. "After the summer, the temperature gradually increased, the weather became hotter, the skin exposed area increased after the clothes were thinned, the uncomfortable feeling of students wearing masks increased, and there were unexpected incidents in which individual students wore masks that exceeded conventional prevention and control requirements during physical exercise. , The prevention and control of epidemic situation is facing new challenges. "Wang Dengfeng explained.

  "In addition, we need to pay attention to the associated problems under normalized prevention and control. The epidemic prevention and control has entered the normalization stage, and various associated problems continue to emerge, such as psychological problems such as stress response, anxiety, people's livelihood problems such as college and employment, online and offline Teaching management issues such as teaching convergence. "

  Precise classification and refinement measures

  How will campus epidemic prevention and control be done in the future? Wang Dengfeng gave the answer.

  He said that campus epidemic prevention and control should be accurately classified. "The so-called accurate classification means that the personnel returning from overseas, cured and discharged, asymptomatic infected persons and high-risk areas should be classified accurately, comprehensively and accurately arrange the health information of teachers, students, school employees and other relevant personnel, and increase the nucleic acid detection and Antibody testing efforts ensure that everyone who enters the campus after school starts is healthy. "

  At the same time, it is necessary to refine the measures for school opening and prevention. Wang Dengfeng said: "After the school starts, from the campus sports activities, wearing masks, classrooms, dorms, canteens, playgrounds, medical offices, etc., as well as the process of students going to and from school and the contact history of teachers and students, all prevention and control must be refined Measures, as soon as possible to establish and improve the daily reporting system for teachers and students ’health and the tracking system for absences from school. For example, we now have clear requirements for the distance between each student in the classroom, which is for the purpose of prevention and control Because the size of the classroom is fixed, how to get more students to come back, some places are discussing the placement or the afternoon, half of the students in the school, the teacher, and the other half of the students at home to receive classroom education through video, and then Carry out rotations. These are all methods that have been devised by various regions, and they are all refining prevention and control measures. "

  "Strengthen the conditional guarantee, we must prepare sufficient anti-epidemic materials. We also need to make a rapid response. The measures we have taken aim to be foolproof, but at the same time, on the basis of ensuring" none ", we must also ensure that once there is "One loss" can quickly respond, form a closed loop, and be able to deal with it in a timely manner, which is also a very important aspect of doing the resumption of school work now. "He said.

  In addition, the Ministry of Education proposed to control aggregation, flow, quality, and safety. During epidemic prevention and control, strictly control large-scale gathering activities, suspend and resume large-scale sports activities such as individual school sports events and comprehensive sports meets, and strengthen the management of the use of key places. Pay close attention to the movement of teachers, students and family members, and strengthen health and safety monitoring and unit group management in classes and dormitories. Do a good job in connecting online and offline teaching, provide targeted teaching guidance, innovate teaching forms, and ensure the quality of teaching. Strengthen the management of the wrong peaks and wrong times and the implementation of prevention and control measures, and continue to carry out the prevention and control education of teachers and students to ensure the safety of the campus and the safety of teachers and students.
