The Maldives National University's Chancellor, Dr. Hassan Hameed, has stated that he hopes schools, colleges, and universities can begin teaching in-person in 2021.
In his tweet, Dr. Hassan Hameed said that in the past seven days, the average number of Covi-19 positive cases were on average 24.3, which is the lowest since July 9. He added that with a decrease in Covid-19 positive cases, hopefully, schools, colleges, and universities can begin teaching in-person in 2021.
Along with reported cases of coronavirus, the government introduced a series of unprecedented restrictive and social distancing measures, including a nationwide closing of government offices, schools, colleges, and universities and continued distance learning on online platforms. Although it is currently school holidays, the government did re-start teaching in-person for students studying in higher grades.

Today, the 7-day average is 24.3 the lowest since July 9. It is also 8 months since lock-down began.
