The protocol approved by the Ministry requires the closure of the classroom and the adoption of distance learning for a period of seven days after the detection of three or more cases in the same school in one week.

In the event that ten or more cases are recorded in different classes at the level of the institution, the decision to close and adopt distance learning for seven days is taken in coordination with the competent authorities, according to the protocol that requires compliance with all precautionary measures in force.
