A side Delta As a result, the reopening of schools was announced at the beginning of September, then in October, and then in November. Corona countermeasures officials seemed to fear that families would not accept the corona vaccine, but did not explicitly mention it.

Corona vaccination finally reached an acceptable level, and schools reopened in the second month of the fall of 1400, but it was not long before the classrooms resumed. A side New Corona means امیکرون He closed the schools and brought the students home, at the most critical time when the exams were to be held.

Education, however, with the experience he had gained, tried to impose restrictions on those who did not receive the vaccine. سی R Present to the school.

On the one hand, families like schools to be opened, on the other hand, students who have not been vaccinated and do not get vaccinated are also a problem. Proponents say they will not send their children to school until others have been vaccinated, while opponents say the vaccine is a personal matter and no one has the right to force it.

The sum of these conditions has caused us to face the classrooms again after the interruption of the face-to-face classes, from the 14th of Farvardin, half of which are empty, and the reason is that the students are either sick or have suspicious symptoms or their families. They are not allowed to attend.

All schools are open

In an interview with Mehr, the Director General of Education of Semnan Province stated: Students aged six to 12 years who have not been vaccinated can receive their vaccine in schools from the 20th of Farvardin, because in coordination with Semnan University of Medical Sciences. And Shahroud, mobile vaccination teams will be deployed in the province’s schools to vaccinate students.

Mohammad Dasturani, stating that since we have witnessed a good growth in vaccination of the third dose among students and teachers, we must say that fortunately there is good safety in schools in Semnan province, which allows us to see the schools open to see the quality. To improve education, he emphasized: From the morning of the 14th of Farvardin, all classrooms in the schools of the province were opened in person and received students of different educational levels. Even the preschools of Semnan province are open in person, but all classes and large families of education The province from preschool to elementary, secondary, pre-university and teachers and educators and school staff must be fully present in schools.

He said that the necessary arrangements have been made for holding attendance classes, adding that strengthening the air conditioning in the classrooms to move the air and also increasing the entertainment bells to reduce the length of stay of students in the classrooms are among the measures that have been communicated to schools. Schools are also required to seat only two people on each school desk so that the distance between students in the classroom is also correct. On the other hand, there should be a separate seat in the classroom for third students on each desk.

Families’ concerns about vaccination

The Director General of Education of Semnan Province also attended the special news report section of Semnan last night and stated that from today all schools and preschools will be open in person and classes will be held without shifts, he said: Education concerns ی Students are in addition to the need to ensure their health.

The instructions stated: Hygiene tips such as using masks, disinfectants, observing the principles of school hygiene, regular cleaning of toilets, increasing the number of recreational bells for ventilation of classrooms, the presence of two students on each bench and placing single chairs in the classroom for students to sit The third is the cases that have been done in person for the establishment of schools. Also, the exam will not be held until the 20th of Farvardin, and the task of the school service must be specified.

The remarks came as some families are still unsure of their student attendance and will not allow students to attend school, but the lack of corona vaccination by some families will cause great concern for students. .

People’s concerns are justified

An education teacher in an interview with Mehr, stating that the vaccination rate in Semnan province before the vaccination under 18 years old reached 92% in the first dose, but when the vaccination was increased over five years, the vaccination rate suddenly fell below 80% “Despite all the efforts made, unfortunately 10 to 15 percent of the students and teachers in the province have not been vaccinated yet, which is a significant amount,” he said.

Mohammad Ali Mohammadi stressed that families who have been vaccinated themselves will not allow their children over the age of five to receive the vaccine. “These families are the biggest obstacle to reopening schools. , To install special facilities such as ventilation and در in the schools of the province, subjects that may not be costly and could be easily done.

He said: “People are really concerned because they are afraid that their children will get sick because of the stubbornness of a family that does not allow their children to be vaccinated. And those who have not been vaccinated should know for themselves and the future of their children’s education.

Persuasion and threats do not work

In an interview with Mehr, a sociologist said about the conditions of vaccination and schools in Semnan province: “Persuasion and threats do not work, and education and more than 11,000 people who did not receive vaccines from students and teachers are proof of this claim, but The importance of the subject of education is that, firstly, teachers are influential sections of society and secondly, students actually see their social personality in shape in schools, so the importance of non-compliance with vaccination can be very profound in education and with negative effects. To face.

Alireza میر Masoumi said that universities and the education complex are expected to be at the forefront of participating in such projects, but when, after two years, there are still fears and hopes about the simple corona vaccine in these complexes, it shows that our work until “How difficult it is,” he said. “We are dealing with families who do not allow their children to be vaccinated, even if the most difficult restrictions are imposed on them. He did not obey and paid the price, so if you were banned from taking drugs and university in the army and the military, you can not obey the rules by paying the price, and no one will work with you because you experienced the same things at school and There was no problem.

He added that not vaccinating students has a detrimental effect on their psyche and that of others, adding: “It is interesting that this also affects the psyche of other students when your 12-year-old sees that his classmate, for example, has not been vaccinated, and he is proud of it.” Defines and differentiates himself from others is definitely appealing. On the other hand, a person who has been able to keep his word by breaking the rules by not being vaccinated, there is no problem in his life and he attends the class. The student thinks to himself that we could not follow the rules because they are different from them We did not have any, but those who did not get vaccinated today are in a minority group that also attracts attention!

Another public health expert, however, has a different opinion. Ali Ehsani, who is also a health expert, said in an interview with Mehr: “As I found out, the education officials resumed face-to-face classes for two reasons. First, a significant amount of knowledge.” Students and teachers were vaccinated in two doses, which is about 90%, and secondly, the prevalence of coronation has decreased according to statistics and schools can be reopened. And rightly so, because if a carrier is in the classroom, all two doses of the vaccine and the hardships and restrictions that legitimate families have gone through are wasted.

He believes that promoting awareness and informing the family about the benefits of vaccination as well as increasing the body’s immunity can still be effective, so education should still consider arrangements in the form of persuasive programs to encourage families to vaccinate their children. Provide cultural and information packages for students with the help of Semnan and Shahroud Universities of Medical Sciences to prepare them to convince their families. At the lowest cost, these measures can lead families to be vaccinated and increase the number of people vaccinated.

Finally, those who do not take coronary vaccination seriously are responsible not only for their student’s child but also for other students because they threaten their health. On the other hand, education says it is not credible enough to do all It does not make schools safe, it does not have the power to force families to be vaccinated, so the conditions in the province and the school complex are not good, because families have a right to worry about the presence of their children until education does something to vaccinate students.
