In order to cope with the resurgence of the epidemic, schools in many places have formulated corresponding preventive measures. Some schools close their schools and are completely cut off from the outside world, while others choose to have holidays in advance or in batches to divert students. I think these two kinds of decisions have their own merits, and which one is better depends on which angle to look at.

From the perspective of epidemic prevention and control, it is definitely better to close schools. After the school closed, the whole school became a closed whole. Without contact with the outside world, the probability of infection or being infected is very small. Just like at the worst of the epidemic, almost every household is self-enclosed, and such measures are the most effective prevention and control measures. Because everyone is self-enclosed, and they are determined not to go out when there is no need, the epidemic situation in China has been controlled quickly. It is the best measure for epidemic prevention and control to choose to close schools again now, and it is still worth popularizing when necessary.

However, there is also a problem with the suspension of classes now, that is, the Spring Festival is coming. At this time, the suspension of classes will prevent students from going home, so many students will miss the day of reunion with their families. The most important thing is that the winter vacation is coming soon. Students have been kept in school, so there will be nearly two months, which makes all teachers and students a little unacceptable.

Taking a holiday in advance is more humane than suspending classes directly. Let the students have an early holiday, in order to prevent the students' going home tide from rushing with the tide of Spring Festival travel rush, and to divert the flow to the greatest extent and reduce the pressure of crowd gathering. Now schools in many places have left early, and many students have gone home in batches. I think this measure is still very flexible and humanized.

Personally, I think it is more humane to let students have a holiday in advance when the epidemic has not spread on a large scale again. Because it is near the end of the year, it is really easy to cause everyone's dissatisfaction to let students stay in poor dormitories for the New Year. If there is any more hostility, it will be really bad. It is also good to let students leave early or in batches, which not only reduces the pressure of gathering, but also allows students to go home for the next year.

However, it is suitable for low-risk areas to let students go home on holiday in advance. If the school is located in a high-risk area, it is necessary to separately evaluate whether to let students go home for a holiday in advance. If the risk is high, it is still very necessary to close the school again and isolate the students. After all, in high-risk areas, closing schools again is not only responsible for the whole society, but also for the safety of students.

Since these two measures have their merits, which one to implement depends on the local conditions. There is no one-size-fits-all decision on specific issues. Use any applicable local conditions.
