Organized parents talk about the failure of the "test to stay" in kindergartens in the research base they conducted among their members.

According to an announcement by the Pancyprian Confederation of Associations of Parents and Guardians of Public and Community Kindergartens in a Pancyprian survey through its Member Associations, "it became clear that with the implementation of the existing measure, not only were our positive cases not detected in time"

"Today and after a week from the implementation of the measure more than 50% of the departments of our Kindergartens remain closed while the cases are detected not only on the day of the Rapid Tests but also on the other days of the week after the onset of symptoms. "There are cases where children from 01/01/2022 until today are absent from kindergarten for more than 6 weeks due to the fact that they are judged as contacts without ever getting sick", it is reported.

It adds that "as we strongly stated in the previous days, the measure was implemented only to satisfy the requests of a specific group and would not have a substantial result, a fact which was confirmed by the image that exists today."

According to the statement, "despite the doubts expressed by some that the parents would not be consistent in the control, we proved that the only ones who appeared to be consistent in all this are the parents who responded seriously to the control of their children, regardless of whether the vast majority is in favor. of the Self-Test ".

The position is expressed that "the burden of responsibility for the failure of the measure, the suffering and the psychological pressure exerted on our children bears not only the Ministry of Health that submitted the specific measure but also the POED that proposed it. "10 days have passed and the people in charge have not yet arranged a meeting to discuss with us the implementation of the Test to Stay, which we suggested a month and a half ago".

As parents, it is noted, among other things, "we are not going to remain silent in all that is happening to our detriment and to the detriment of our children, nor are we going to tolerate it."

"If after the discussion with the Minister of Health they continue to apply ineffective and meaningless measures that put pressure on the psychology of our children, then the Executive Council of our Confederation will meet to decide what measures we will take since the State no longer appears. to be interested in us and our children ", it is reported.
