Mandatory use of mouth covers of students and teachers, guarantee access to soap and water in all schools, that parents send a message every day in which they report that “apparently” no one in their home has symptoms of Covid-19 and staggered breaks, are some of the measures included in the back to school protocol.

“We want to establish a school-home relationship in order to strengthen education in Mexico. There must be co-responsibility, we are all responsible, this effort begins at home, is reinforced when entering school and continues in the classroom, ”he said.
He explained that before returning to classrooms, all schools will go through a sanitization and it must be guaranteed that in each of them there is soap and water for washing hands.
“Before returning, the previous week, the committee will organize general cleaning days at the school, this should lead us to the school having a routine cleaning dynamic, that the schools are clean and not just SarsCoV2 but of garbage and many other things. It is important to guarantee access to soap, water and alcohol gel in all schools, because the most effective way to prevent getting infected is to permanently wash your hands and we want this to happen in all schools, “he emphasized.
The official indicated that on the return to school scheduled for August 10, as long as the traffic light is green, parents will be asked to report the student’s health every day and if anyone At home, she has symptoms of illness.

“The face mask or handkerchief will be compulsory, it is not that they are mouthpieces provided by the health sector or of some type of material, but that in coexistence, boys and girls, teachers and teachers learn that when they bring mouthpieces, they is taking care of the other because what one emanates does not come to them, we are not going to be afraid, but we are going to take care of each other, ”he said.
