- it is advised to pay more attention to the prevention of diseases;
- if possible, it is advised that the parents and students who had their school holiday in the areas affected by the virus, to stay at home for 14 days and monitor their health. Those parents are asked to contact school directly, also for further guidance on the organisation of studies.
