Excellent report released by LocalCircles Manager on how many school children are repeatedly falling ill.

Issues any more.

Why are schools not following even basic prototcol so their are online classes or class videos available and a little flexibility with exams/tests.

Covid has worsened children’s immunity and we should not expose them to covid, flu so many times.

Tiny tota and children below 5 years falling ill with cold cough cold and mild fever is not a serious matter. Allowing Preschool, LKG, UKG childen playing outdoor is a must and part of the experience for them o feel the sand, open air. Some schools have good assistants who take care of the children after the outdoor session with wash and cleaning. Older children who run around and play sweat ; they must be given a small wash and dried. If the cloths are wet, the cloths should be changed. Parents should lay emphasise on the diet of the children before they leave the house and not leave it to the school authorities totally. That is when they wake up a drink ,milk of any other health drink should be given. As far as possible at least some solid should be fed at home.Then mid morning snacks mostly fruits (if not provided by the schhol)and lunch to be packed.This should give them some immunity against the infections. when they reach home alaso a small wash; when this is done for a year or 2 they will start doing it themselves. Never never allow them to sit in frnt of the TV or Tablet till they are cleaned and given something healthy to nibble with milk or heaalth drink. Attend to any running nose or cough immediately. Keep the nasal passage clean to prevent it from getting worse. Then let them ralax for a while before they settle for some studies. more

और लगाओ lockdown. Idiotic government did the 2 years school shutdown. Sitting at home children's innate immunity responded by staying shut. This indicates government does not understanding how much public health owes to the phenomenon of immunity. 2 years was a long period to understand and learn. more

Govt doesn't have magic wands to make problems disappear. The lockdowns during which people, including children, lost exposure to sunlight and Vit. D is a contributing factor to low immunity. Constant online classes have led to small kids wearing spectacles, developing problems like squint, headaches etc.. If kids fall sick and recover, it's good for them in the long run as that builds natural immunity. Plus having as much natural foods as possible, cutting down on junk food, ultra processed food.. more

Low Immunity came from parents & then self. when you eat ready made food , cold drink then it is going to down. not to worry about it. more
