With optional use of the protective mask and a recommendation to students and teachers for a self-diagnosis test (self-test) or rapid antigen detection test (Rapid test) before their return to the school units, the start of the new school year in Cyprus is about to take place, as the Minister of Health of Cyprus, Michalis Hatzipantela, declares to APE-MPE. As he typically mentions, the epidemiological data of the last few days show a significant improvement in Cyprus.
Based on the evaluations made by the services of the Ministry of Health, in collaboration with the members of the Advisory Scientific Committee, Cyprus is proceeding with the adjustment of the current measures, while continuing to inform citizens about the necessity of observing personal protection measures. It has been decided to make the optional use of the mask in places of worship, excluding high-risk places such as hospitals, nursing homes, places for providing health services and means of public transport, it states specifically in APE-MPE.
And he points out: Regarding the opening of the school units, random sampling checks will be carried out by the sampling units of the Ministry of Health, for the surveillance of the virus in the community. It is recommended that all students, teachers and staff of all school units, before returning to schools for the start of classes, undergo a self-diagnosis test (self-test) or rapid antigen detection test (Rapid test). The goal of the Ministries of Health and Education is to maintain the operation of school units in the event of a new outbreak of the virus, something that was achieved in the previous months through proper management.
The Medical Services and Public Health Services in collaboration with the members of the Scientific Advisory Committee and Services of the Ministry of Health have proceeded to prepare the Road Map: “COVID-19: Maintaining Preparedness and Response”, which includes actions aimed at protecting of public health, while keeping society and the economy open and resilient.
With the efforts of all of us, we are carefully returning to normalcy.
