Covid-19: Sharjah private school teachers asked to take PCR test every 14 days

Sharjah - The employees who received two doses of vaccine against Covid-19 are excluded from the mandatory nasal swab test.

Teachers and other staff at Sharjah’s private schools should undergo a Covid-19 test every 14 days to ensure the safety of the students, a circular issued by the Sharjah Private Education Authority (SPEA) has said.

The authority said the employees who received two doses of vaccine against Covid-19 are excluded from the mandatory nasal swab test that should be conducted at their own expense.

The teachers or school staff who have a medical certificate, indicating that they cannot receive the vaccine because of their health condition, will have to conduct the PCR test every 14 days and submit the result to the school authorities.
