China News Service, June 18, according to the US "World Daily" report, the University of Maryland announced on the evening of June 15 local time the new semester resumption plan starting on August 31, including monitoring the school teachers and students body temperature and symptoms, contact Tracking, mobilization of health behaviors, etc. Lu Daokui, a Chinese school principal, pointed out that while the school plans to give priority to the health and safety of the Malaysian University community, it will begin a new semester on August 31 as originally planned.

  Lu Daokui said that in the past few weeks, seven special working groups composed of more than 200 people, including faculty members and external experts, have discussed plans to reopen the campus. The measures mainly focus on five aspects:

  First, the school will provide a temperature measurement and electronic reporting system. If someone has a fever or other suspected symptoms of new coronary pneumonia, a test will be provided, and the positive result will be quarantined; second, the school's goal is to allow the whole school teaching staff to do the new crown test Last week, we tried to test 250 faculty members. The process was quick and painless. The result was announced 24 hours later.

  Third, if a confirmed person appears in UM, the State Department of Health officials will contact it immediately to control the scope of infection through contact tracing. UM itself will also set up early contact tracing on campus; Fourth, UM experts will monitor the campus The waste water, the air in the teaching building and the high-frequency contact surface changes, early warning of possible outbreaks of disease; finally, school-wide health information mobilization will be launched to educate the community to wear masks, maintain social distance, wash hands frequently, stay home sick, etc.

  Lu Daokui said that the risk management of the new coronary pneumonia epidemic is a continuous development process. "The risk cannot be eliminated, but it can be reduced. The University’s response will continue to be updated until the vaccine or cure plan is released."

  UM will require teachers, students, faculty or other personnel of the school to wear masks, maintain a social distance with others, and take daily temperature measurements. School dorms and dining halls will also reduce beds and seats to reduce crowd density and maintain social distance.

  After the resumption of classes at the end of August, UM will not immediately begin face-to-face classes. Courses with more than 50 students in the class will be combined with remote and on-site teaching. The specific how to take classes will be announced in July. (Luo Xiaoyuan)
