After the government announced that people diagnosed with the new crown will not need to report and quarantine from the 30th of this month, the Education Bureau also updated the guidelines. From the same day, all school staff and other personnel are not required to undergo rapid testing before returning to school. It is still necessary to test quickly before going to school every day. If you are diagnosed with no symptoms, you are not allowed to go back to school. Xu Shuchang, a government expert consultant and chair professor of the Department of Respiratory System of Chinese University, said in a radio program today (21st) that due to the high vaccination rate of the new crown vaccine and the fact that many citizens have been infected, the mixed immune barrier of society is already very strong, and the risk of transmission Not high, so there is no need to set too many restrictions on asymptomatic patients.
However, students’ self-care ability is relatively low, so it is still not suitable for students who have tested positive to return to school. As for the still-maintained mask order, Hsu pointed out that the mask order should not be revoked during the winter when respiratory diseases are active, and that it should be lifted after the winter. However, high-risk places include public transportation, hospitals and clinics, and residential care homes for the elderly and the disabled. Wait, you should still wear a mask.
