November 30, 2021 The infections grow and the classes return to Dad even with only one infected. This was established by a ministerial circular signed yesterday evening, as anticipated today by some newspapers, such as Repubblica and Stampa. Weekly incidence still growing in the number of new cases of Sars-CoV-2 infection, in school age, equal to 125 per 100,000 inhabitants in the period 19-25 November, "a value far from the optimal value of 50 per 100,000, useful for a correct tracking of the cases "for which it is considered appropriate" to temporarily suspend the 'surveillance with testing' program.   



Thus the circular signed by the dg Prevention of the Ministry of Health, Gianni Rezza, and by the Head of the department for human, financial and instrumental resources of the Ministry of Education, Jacopo Greco, which establishes the Dad even with a single infection.



Costa: "Choice of prudence"


"On school we face a situation where the picture is constantly changing". This was stated by the Undersecretary of Health, Andrea Costa, a guest of Radio Anch'io. "We changed the protocol by providing three positives for the dad - he explained - but considering that there is a sharp increase in the number of infected people under 12, who are not yet vaccinated, we felt prudent, making a shared choice with the regions, to go back to the initial forecast. With the presence of a positive in the class, the dad redeems - concluded Costa - it is a measure that takes into account the current situation ".



The principals: "Tracking was missing"


"We were easy cassandre, we had already raised the alarm a few days after the publication of the joint Health-Education note no. 1218 of last November 6. The schools, despite the many difficulties and with an enormous workload on the shoulders of managers and staff, they held up. The same cannot be said of the prevention departments that failed to guarantee the timing of testing right away and in many cases did not apply those tracking procedures. "

This is the comment of Antonello Giannelli, president of the Deans' association on returning to Dad even with only one infected.
