Schools to Implement New Precautions Against COVID-19

As the new academic year approaches on October 9th, a fresh series of precautionary measures have been put in place to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in schools. The Directorate of Education has issued instructions to educational administrations across Egypt’s governorates to equip their facilities - whether it’s administrative office or a school building - with an isolation room, sterilization spray, thermal detector, disinfection tools and sterilization material.

These new precautionary measures follow the implementation of other COVID-19 restrictions on school campuses, such as requiring every student, teacher and staff member to get vaccinated against COVID-19 before entering school premises, with at least one million doses especially reserved for them.
