The decree with the new anti-Covid regulations regarding the school, the stop to the restrictions for vaccinated people in the red zone and the duration of the Green pass has been approved by the Council of Ministers.
In the draft of the decree , consisting of six articles,we read that “in lower secondary schools (middle schools), upper secondary schools (upper secondary schools) and in the education and vocational training system with a case of positiveness ascertained among the pupils present in the classroom, the teaching continues for all in the presence with the use of FFP2 respiratory protection devices by the pupils and teachers; with two or more positive cases ascertained among the pupils present in the class, for those who demonstrate that they have completed the primary vaccination cycle or to have recovered for less than one hundred and twenty days or after completing the primary vaccination cycle, or to have carried out the booster dose, the teaching activity continues in the presence of theuse of FFP2 type respiratory protection devices “.“For those who possess an appropriate vaccination exemption
certification – the draft explains – the teaching activity continues in the presence with the use of FFP2 respiratory protection devices, at the request of those who exercise parental responsibility. for minors and pupils directly concerned if they are of age. For the other pupils, the integrated digital didactics is applied for a duration of five days “.
As regards the duration of the green pass , we read that “the green Covid-19 certification is valid from the date of the same administration without the need for additional booster doses”.
The ministers of the League, according to internal sources,of the new Covid regulations on Dad and quarantines at school, included in the decree approved in the CDM.
The Northern League explained that they had decided not to vote because those rules “discriminate against unvaccinated children”. The concern of the Democratic Party
“What happened today in the CDM is a worrying act that risks increasing instability and creating new confusion in the country”. This is what Nazarene sources say. “We are determined to support, with the utmost commitment and responsibility, the work of the government, which in recent days has shown its willingness to immediately relaunch its reform action, in the fight against the pandemic and in the implementation of the NRP”, they add from the Pd. Draghi: “Italy reopens”
“Today’s measures go in the direction of an even greater reopening of the country”, said Prime Minister Mario Draghi as he opened the meeting.
“Today we take care of the school in the presence, which has always been the priority of this government. We meet the needs of families, who find the current regime of quarantines too complicated and restrictive”.
“In the coming weeks we will continue on this path of reopening . Based on the scientific evidence, and continuing to follow the trend of the epidemiological curve, we will announce a calendar for overcoming the current restrictions”.
On the table of the CDM there are the new rules on green passes, schools and the “zone” system against Covid. Also expected to verify the implementation of the NRP.
Several decisions were made by the control room on the covid that preceded the Council of Ministers.
Among these, the green pass after the third dose has unlimited effectiveness and those who are infected after the second dose are equated with those who have done the booster.
As for the school, the direction of the control room is that children from 0 to 6 years old will go to Dad for five days if there are more than five positive Covid cases in the classroom.
The Dad – it is explained – will start for everyone, since at this age children are not vaccinated and stay in class without a mask.
We then move towards the revision of the color system of the Regions with the introduction of a rule that with regard to the red areas will emphasize a distinction between those who have completed the vaccination cycle and those who are not vaccinated.
In fact, it is reported, for the vaccinated there should be no more distinctions regarding the colors of the regions.
These new anti-covid measures on school, green pass and color band system should come into effect from Monday 7 February. This is the indication that the government would have given to Regions, provinces and municipalities after the control room before the Council of Ministers which should pass the new rules. The press conference of Ministers Bianchi and Speranza Speranza: “Green pass without duration for those who have the booster”
“A phase opened by the very high number of vaccinated people and by an epidemiological picture that gives encouraging signals: for the first time intensive care give a minus sign. We extend the validity of the green pass after the booster, without setting limits, and we intervene on the red areas: the restrictions will not affect the vaccinated population “.
This was stated by the Minister of Health, Roberto Speranza, at a press conference at the end of the Council of Ministers.
“We extend the validity of the green pass after the booster: today it is 6 months. The government’s assessment is not to set limits to the green pass for those who have the booster, which today has 34 million Italians”.
“If a region ends up in the red zone, the related limitations will not affect vaccinated people.”
“The school is the heart of our country and we want to work to reduce distance learning as much as possible. This is a different phase so we have decided that the vaccinated will no longer go to dad and in the few cases of dad this will last 5 days from 10 current “.
The changes affect all grades of the school:in kindergarten you go to dad with 5 cases; in the primary one goes in dad with 5 cases, but only the unvaccinated go there; in the secondary after 2 cases only the unvaccinated go into dad.
” About school we make strong choices that give a sense of the new phase we are experiencing. It is nice that we start right from school, because it is the heart of our country and if we have to do something we must do it in schools. We work to reduce as much as possible the dad. We decide that the vaccinated will no longer go into dad, we believe it is right that those who have been vaccinated can avoid it, in the few cases of classes that will begin to go back to dad to limit the time frame from 10 to 5 days “. Additional buffer for foreigners with a different vaccine
“When a foreigner arrives in Italy we now recognize the vaccination status of the person’s country of origin and if the norms of this vaccination status are not identical to those of our country, we ask that person for an additional buffer to access our services that provide for the green pass. This will allow the resolution of many problems and our tourism to have an important answer “, concluded Speranza. Bianchi: “81% of children today are in attendance”
“” Vaccination is an element of safety “. We have 81% of students in attendance, 92% of teachers and 93.5% of Ata staff” . This was stated by the Minister of Education, Patrizio Bianchi, in the same press conference.
“Distance learning is not an absolute evil, in times of difficulty it has been a great resource and it will also be in the future if necessary. We are not demonizing a fundamental tool in these two very difficult years, but we favor activity in the presence . but to give a strong sign: the element of safety and vaccination “.
“We are marching towards a new normalcy with all the caution that there must be because the virus is still there and is significantly present, both in schools and in our lives”.
