Education and medicine CCR united in the fight against COVID-19

Case one

In the Belgorod region began to examine schoolchildren for coronavirus. Starting from September 1, the regional health department has been monitoring the incidence of acute respiratory viral infections and covid-19 in all educational institutions of the region on a daily basis. So, from 7 to 9 in the morning, each school transmits operational data on the state of health of students to the education department of the district or city district. Ultimately, information about sick (contact) schoolchildren from the regional department of education is transmitted even to the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation.

“Examination is carried out for all patients with signs of acute respiratory viral infection and pneumonia. Material sampling is carried out at home or in an ambulance room with flow separation. 15.9 thousand tests have already been carried out on minors, ”the ministry said in response to an editorial request.

The Belgorod Department of Public Health did not limit itself to testing, opening vaccination points in three Belgorod schools - No. 31, 6 and 17. This was done for a while, while the educational process was suspended for two weeks of autumn holidays. You can get vaccinated against coronavirus without an appointment from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., it is enough to have a passport, SNILS, and a medical policy with you.

Case two

In Voronezh, medical stations have been opened on the basis of No. 34 and 75 schools. According to the city administration, this decision was caused by "the high demand of individual polyclinics for premises for the initial examination of visitors, as well as for analyzes (including testing)". First-aid posts will help separate the flow of people and reduce queues. The option of using the premises in school No. 43 was also considered, information on other available schools for this purpose was requested from the Department of Education.

“Disinfection and cleaning is done daily. After the completion of the work of doctors in medical rooms, the premises will be properly processed. In all cases of using the premises of non-core institutions, we are talking exclusively about the initial admission or analysis. The issue of transferring such facilities to covid departments is not being considered, ”the press service of the mayor’s office shared. Also this week, it became known that such a high-throughput point was opened in the Voronezh Concert Hall.
