兒科醫(yī)生小組更新了如何安全開學的指導意見

The American Academy of Pediatrics on Wednesday released expanded guidance for reopening schools that "strongly advocates for additional federal assistance to schools" whether classes are in person or virtual.

美國兒科學會周三發(fā)布了重新開學的擴大指導意見，“強烈主張對學校提供額外的聯(lián)邦援助”，無論面授課堂還是網(wǎng)絡課堂。

The expanded guidance comes as the debate over if and how to reopen schools in the pandemic -- and in some cases, whether to close them back down again -- continues across the country.

擴大的指導意見出臺之際，美國各地仍在就是否以及如何在疫情中讓學校重新開學、在某些情況下是否再次關閉學校展開辯論。

In a statement about the update, the AAP noted that, in places with high levels of coronavirus infections, schools will need additional federal help to support remote learning, pointing to a Pew Research Center study that found one in five teens are not able to complete schoolwork at home due to a lack of a computer or internet connection.

在一份更新的聲明中，美國兒科學會指出，在冠狀病毒感染率高的地方，學校將需要額外的聯(lián)邦幫助來支持遠程學習，皮尤研究中心的一項研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，五分之一的青少年由于缺乏電腦或不能聯(lián)網(wǎng)而無法在家完成學業(yè)。

"This technological 'homework gap' disproportionately affects low-income families," the group, which represents pediatricians, said.

這個代表兒科醫(yī)生的組織說:“這種技術上的‘家庭作業(yè)差距’對低收入家庭的影響尤為嚴重。”

"The persistent racial and social inequities in our educational system, including disparities in funding, quality of school buildings, and resources for curriculum and teachers have only been exacerbated by the pandemic," said AAP President Dr. Sally Goza.

美國兒科學會的主席薩利·高扎博士說:“我們教育系統(tǒng)中持續(xù)存在的種族和社會不平等，包括資金、校舍質量、課程和教師資源等方面的不平等，只會因疫情而加劇。”

"Without more resources, these disparities will worsen. Whatever school looks like this fall, we must be innovative and promote the well-being of all children, particularly children living in marginalized communities."

“如果沒有更多的資源，這些差距將會惡化。無論今年秋天學校是什么樣子，我們都必須創(chuàng)新，促進所有兒童的福祉，尤其是生活在邊緣社區(qū)的兒童。”

The expanded guidance also includes recommendations encouraging cloth face coverings.

擴大的指導意見還包括建議鼓勵使用口罩。
