As it states ilialive.gr, the school site was disinfected Wednesday morning so that students could return to a safe environment on Thursday. At the same time, parents and students were guided in K.Y. Especially in order to receive information about what they will do as a precaution. “We have mobilized immediately in order to properly deal with the situation for the safety of the student community and we are also monitoring the student’s situation with our best wishes for a speedy recovery,” commented the mayor of Zacharos, Kostas Mitropoulos.

Speaking to ilialive.gr, the director of the Zaharos Health Center Prokopis Papazafeiris, emphasized that “… we were informed by the Kyparissia Hospital about the incident, and we immediately coordinated all the necessary actions with the Mayor of Zaharos, Mr. Mitropoulos, regarding the information and prevention. We contacted the EODY and it was decided in a meeting we had with Mr. Mitropoulos, deputy mayors and other bodies, for preventive reasons, to close the school and carry out disinfection. In cooperation with the school management, the parents of the students who they had close contact with the child who got sick so that the children could receive preventive treatment. In addition, the parents of all the children were informed so that they could be vigilant for any symptoms. Of course, the germ is not so contagious and it is not easy to spread through the air.”

For his part, the director of Primary Education of Ilia, Andreas Karatzas, noted in his statements to ilialive.gr that “…a case of meningitis appeared in the 4th grade of the primary school of Nea Figaleia.

We have done what is foreseen in the context of student protection and the educational community. The school unit has been closed as a precaution for disinfection and from tomorrow (Thursday) it will operate normally.” …
