Piontkowski:
Based on data from the Minister of Health and GIS, children's presence in schools should not cause significant epidemic consequences
- I would like to recall that the Prime Minister mentioned several months ago that we would want to open schools in a stationary mode. This is also a result of the experiences of other European countries. Information we have from other parts of Europe clearly indicates that most countries are behaving similarly to Poland, meaning they recognize that this remote, distance learning mode has its drawbacks. I have spoken about this several times. It turns out, however, that teachers have fewer opportunities to discipline students, mobilize them for work, and perhaps the results of the matura exam are partly indicative of this, as is perhaps the period of the strike last school year, when students did not attend classes for several weeks, and perhaps a few other elements. But it seems today, and we know this based on data from the Minister of Health and GIS, that the presence of children and students in schools should not cause more serious epidemic consequences. If we can be in large numbers on the beach, go to the store, then we can just as well return to school. After all, workplaces are functioning normally, and these outbreaks of infection are local outbreaks, in workplaces or social welfare facilities, whereas we anticipate the possibility of eventual restrictions on school functioning, a partial or complete transition to distance learning, if the epidemic situation is more difficult in a given facility or its vicinity. However, today in most schools in Poland, it is calmly possible to return to traditional classes, with certain restrictions - stated Dariusz Piontkowski in an interview with Dorota Łosiewicz on TVP1's "Political Fifteen Minutes".
