new health protocol in schools

Among the new measures announced by Jean Castex: case-contact screening. Now three self-tests are sufficient, whereas previously it was necessary to carry out a PCR or antigen test. If a child is case-contact, the school must provide a certificate in order to benefit from the three self-tests free of charge. A single certificate is sufficient for the three self-tests. On the set of France 2, the Prime Minister assured that no shortage was to be expected, because 11 million self-tests were ordered. In addition, you no longer need to give up everything to pick up your child from school. Parents can wait until the end of the course.

The issue of schools during the health crisis has always been a major issue for the executive, which for two years has strived not to close these places. This is already the second time in a week that the school health protocol has been amended. According to Guillaume Daret, this proves that this file is sensitive enough to the government. The journalist adds that these statements by the tenant of Matignon will probably not appease the anger of the teaching staff. The Prime Minister, above all addressed parents, children and pharmacists.
