致江西省外籍师生的一封信

江西省教育厅  昨天

       新冠肺炎疫情发生以来，在党中央、国务院的坚强领导和国际社会鼎力支持下，江西省上下团结奋战，汇聚起了众志成城的强大力量，疫情防控工作取得积极成效。这里面凝聚了外籍师生朋友们的理解、关心、支持和帮助，我们深表感谢。

       当前，全球新冠肺炎疫情形势仍不容乐观，一些国家和地区新增确诊和疑似病例快速增长，疫情通过人员跨境流动传播风险加大。为了做好新冠肺炎防控工作，切实保障我省外籍师生的生命和健康安全，现将有关事项告知如下：

       一、中国政府及你们所在的中国院校十分关心你们的身心健康，请和你们所在的学校保持联系。无论你是留校还是在境外，加强综合防范十分必要。请你们保持科学健康生活方式，提高身体素质，如遇到自己或身边的人出现疑似症状，请及时向你们所在的中国院校报告并就医。

       二、目前我省防疫形势总体平稳，但是中国的疫情尚未结束，我省各级各类学校尚未开学，为确保你们的安全,作以下提示：

       1.留校的外籍师生，请你们配合学校的管理，外籍专家楼及留学生公寓实行封闭式管理，请你们不出校园，自觉接受实名验证及体温检测。

       2.在境外的外籍师生，尚未接到开学通知之前请不要提前返校。如在境外遇到防疫物资等方面的困难，请尽快告知所在学校，我们将尽最大努力给予帮助。如有极为特殊原因不得不提前返校，需要本人向学校提出申请，报学校批准同意后方可返校，须在抵达后接受14天隔离观察，身体无恙后才可以入住外国专家楼或留学生公寓。

       新冠病毒是人类共同的敌人，抗击病毒人人有责。希望广大外籍师生朋友们充满信心，团结一致，共同努力，打赢这场防疫之战。我们相信有你们的配合，定能够共渡难关，战胜疫情！
