- Primary and secondary school students residing in remote or mountainous communities will continue to be served by the sampling points visiting school facilities, as announced by the Ministry of Health.
- It is clarified that in all cases, parents/guardians are responsible for accompanying and supervising children attending sampling centres located at schools.

- This measure applies exceptionally only to the opening hours of schools (including single day schools and optional day schools) and after the withdrawal of close contacts from schools, they will be self-limiting as they will continue to be considered close contacts and will not be able to take part in other evening activities (such as tutorials, sports, etc.).a)
- These persons should avoid being transported by public transport and should travel to school in a private vehicle.
- The absence of students from class during the laboratory test procedure will be excused.
