We have thousands of daily Covid cases. Isn't it very reckless that students and staff members currently under existing quarantine order and future HRW (Health Risk Warnings) can go back to school if ART is negative?
SINGAPORE: Students who are identified as close contacts of COVID-19 cases will be able to return to school if they are well and have a negative antigen rapid test (ART) result, announced the Ministry of Education (MOE) on Sunday (Oct 10) in an update to its measures. From Monday, MOH will issue a 7-day health risk warning to students in close contact with COVID-19 cases. At the same time, MOE will no longer issue leave of absence and approved absence for primary schools, secondary schools, special education schools, junior colleges and Millennia Institute.
During the seven days, students can return to school if they continue to be well and have a negative ART result before they leave for school daily.
Similarly, students and staff members currently under existing quarantine orders, leave of absence or approved absence can return to school for lessons as long as they are well and have a negative ART result on the day they go to school.
