O Instituto Santos Dumont (ISD) decidiu prorrogar até pelo menos 24 de junho as medidas de isolamento social que adota desde março como prevenção ao novo coronavirus.
As medidas venceriam nesta terça-feira, 16 de junho, e incluem esquema especial de trabalho, com plantão ou home office para equipes, aulas e atividades online.
Segundo a Comissão Especial para a Pandemia Covid-19, do Instituto, o novo prazo acompanha a decisão do governo do Rio Grande do Norte de prorrogar a política de isolamento social rígido e outras medidas para o enfrentamento do novo coronavírus (Covid-19)
in the State.
As medidas, no ISD, são adotadas desde meados de março e já haviam sido prorrogadas cinco vezes: em 8 e 23 de abril, além de 5 e 20 de maio e 4 de junho.
The decision for social isolation, explains the Special Commission of the Institute, is also based on guidelines from the Ministry of Health and on international evidence that this is the most effective preventive measure in this context.
The objective is to avoid agglomerations and the flow of people to reduce the risks of infection and spread of the virus.
As the pandemic situation evolves, new definitions may, however, be adopted and disclosed at any time.
How are the calls?
Face-to-face consultations remain suspended indefinitely in most clinics at ISD's Anita Garibaldi Health Education and Research Center.
As exceções são as áreas de obstetrícia e pediatria de alto risco – e os atendimentos a vítimas de violência sexual – que estão funcionando com equipes de plantão.
Rehabilitation clinic patients continue to receive support by phone, WhatsApp, and through materials such as videos, folders and booklets that Anita's teams are producing.
