"We can not say anything about the date of the opening of schools, because there is no guarantee that the situation will improve in the future."
The statement came from Turkish professor Mehmet Ceyhan, Qadin.Net reports quoting the Telegraph.
He said that the fight against the global pandemic is still ongoing, and in this regard, it is very difficult to decide on the opening of schools in all countries, including Turkey:
"In the past, it was claimed that even if children were infected, they would not infect others. But recent research has shown that this is not true. The age group of those infected in South Korea has been investigated. It was found that the risk of infection in the 10-19 age group is higher.
Young people between the ages of 10 and 19 who carry the virus are more likely to be infected at home than in other age groups, and those over the age of 20 are more at risk in the company of friends outside the home.
In comparison, if a person has the virus at home, the probability of transmission is 11.8 percent, and the probability of infection in the company of friends outside is only 1.9 percent. In this case, the greatest infection is provided by children aged 10-19 at home. This does not mean that children are more contagious, only that children are very active, and it is very difficult to maintain control at home.
"Therefore, opening schools is one of the most difficult decisions in any country. When an epidemic starts in any country, the first place to close is the school," he said.
Mehmet Ceyhan reiterated that it is very difficult to decide on the opening of schools: "This is one of the main topics discussed by the world today."
The professor said that the mutation of the virus also poses a risk: "The epidemic is likely to end in two years. It is planned to take a break from education for a while. We need to think a lot about this issue "
