The tips briefed the public health emergency incident had a negative impact on school opening work during the epidemic prevention and control of Qiandongnan Prefecture.

Guizhou is the first province in China to announce the opening of schools. The third and third grade students officially resumed school lessons on 16 March 2020. Other provinces and cities have also introduced plans to  re-open schools.

From the official documents of the Communist Party of China and the media reported by the Communist Party of China’s mouthpiece, the symptoms of these 209 students are very similar to the symptoms of covid patients.
