  Many schools are infected by the new crown virus

  Class A and other announcements of suspension of classes

  With the news of multiple school closures

  Some netizens raised questions:

  Has entered the period of "Class B and B pipe"

  Entire class suspended due to illness of some students

  Is there a corresponding basis?

  High incidence of respiratory diseases in spring

  How to prevent it?

  Jiangsu CDC issued a reminder!

  Students are sick and the whole class is suspended

  Is there any basis?

  According to the "Operational Guidelines for the Prevention and Control of Novel Coronavirus Infection" formulated and issued by the Joint Prevention and Control Group of the State Council, it is mentioned that primary and secondary schools use classes as units. The administrative department will make a report, and the education administrative department will propose and implement prevention and control measures in conjunction with the health and health, disease control and other departments. When the proportion of infected people is relatively large, offline classes can be stopped and online teaching can be implemented in units of classes or grades .

  In fact, suspension of classes caused by infectious diseases such as measles, chickenpox, flu, noro, hand, foot and mouth disease is a very common way to deal with the epidemic . The public should not be overly panicked by the word " suspended classes".

  After the new crown was included in the "Class B and B management", a similar approach was adopted to deal with the new crown epidemic. Therefore, after a cluster of epidemics is found in schools, everyone does not need to panic too much . Just follow the latest version of the "Work Plan for the Prevention and Control of Novel Coronavirus Infection in Schools" issued by the Ministry of Education for emergency response. After the epidemic is lifted, normal education and teaching will be resumed in time.

  It should be reminded that

  The "disappearance" of the new crown has not disappeared

  just currently at low prevalence levels

  According to the latest "National Novel Coronavirus Epidemic Situation" released by the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention on February 18, although the number of new crown infections has dropped significantly, the number of new crown infections still exists, with more than 5,000 new infections every day. Therefore, we still try our best to take personal protection every day.

The types and trends are similar to those of the country and province.

Question two:
What is the epidemic situation of the new crown epidemic in Danyang?
Municipal CDC:
The daily number of newly confirmed cases of new coronavirus pneumonia in medical institutions in Danyang City, and the number of new coronavirus nucleic acid positives in nucleic acid monitoring institutions are all in single digits; key institutions in the city, such as pension institutions and welfare institutions, have not detected new crown positive infections; schools Emergency monitoring did not find a positive infection of the new crown. It shows that the new crown epidemic in Danyang City presents a low-level epidemic, which is consistent with the whole country.
Question three:
What is the specific reason for the recent suspension of individual classes?
Municipal CDC:
Since the start of school this year, 22 classes in the city have had fever, cough and other clusters of epidemics, and 3 classes have clusters of fever, vomiting, and diarrhea. After laboratory testing, the result was seasonal influenza (type A), negative for new coronavirus infection, and norovirus was not detected. The above results suggest that the recent school cluster epidemics in Danyang City are mainly seasonal influenza and infectious diarrhea. According to the "Guidelines for the Prevention and Control of Acute Infectious Diseases in Schools and Nursery Institutions in Jiangsu Province (Trial)", in order to prevent the further spread of epidemic infectious diseases, relevant schools have adopted temporary suspension measures for individual classes.
Question four:
What should be paid attention to in health protection against epidemics in spring?
Municipal CDC:
In view of the recent high incidence of influenza and infectious diarrhea in schools, it is suggested that teachers, students and parents of schools should do the following 5 points together.
1. Teachers and students should do a good job of health monitoring every day. When symptoms such as fever, dry cough, fatigue, sore throat, vomiting, and diarrhea occur, antigen or nucleic acid tests should be carried out in time. If the test results confirm the infection of the new coronavirus, they must truthfully report to the school and delay their return. If the new crown is ruled out, you should rest at home for treatment, conduct health observation, and go to work or class without sickness. If the condition worsens progressively, go to a regular medical institution for treatment as soon as possible to avoid delaying the condition.
2. The school publicizes relevant knowledge of common respiratory infectious diseases in spring to students and parents, guides students to avoid going to public places where crowds gather as much as possible, and wears masks in closed and crowded places to reduce the chance of infection.
3. Strengthen the window ventilation of classrooms, dormitories, canteens and other public places, 2-3 times a day, 20-30 minutes each time, and carry out preventive disinfection of public places every day.
4. Develop good habits of washing hands frequently, ventilating frequently, eating cooked food, drinking boiled water, drying clothes and quilts, and exercising more, pay attention to nutritional intake, and enhance physical fitness.
5. Vaccination is the most effective measure to prevent infectious diseases. It is recommended that students who have not been vaccinated against influenza, chickenpox and other vaccines get vaccinated as soon as possible.
