Minister says students in Zagreb, Zagreb County to switch to online classes

Today we have 241 positive students but we will switch to online classes anyway, Fuchs said, adding that this was a result of talks with local Covid-19 response teams.

This approach has proved to be very efficient because so far we have managed to hold 78% of total classes face-to-face, he said.

He admitted that only 20 percent of teachers in Sisak-Moslavina County had responded to the vaccination campaign, expressing hope that a new campaign would increase interest in vaccination in that group.

The ministry wants teachers and all other education workers to get vaccinated, but it cannot order anyone to do so, he said.
