Infectious Containment Plan
I. INTRODUCTION
“A disaster is an occurrence disrupting the normal conditions of existence and causing a level
of suffering that exceeds the capacity of adjustment of the affected community.”
Disasters involve widespread human material, economic or environment impacts,
which exceed the ability of the affected community or society to cope using own resources as
defined by the United Nation and there is no country that is immune from disaster, though
vulnerability to disaster varies. Whether natural or manmade disaster, children are the most
vulnerable when disaster strikes. It is our calling to protect the well-being of children affected
by disaster.
However, pandemic strikes anywhere where not everyone is ready. Everyone
becomes vulnerable, especially children and senior citizens, with the virus called
CORONAVIRUS.
Pandemic are states of disease that sharply increase in population around the world
with infections taking place more or less simultaneously. While it is usually referring to
infectious disease, such as plague or influenza, it is often used to refer to other health
conditions including cancer, obesity and even addiction.
As infections from the 2019- coronavirus continued to spread in early 2020, the WHO
declared that they no longer use a formal classification to designate when an epidemic
becomes a pandemic.
Concerned premature use of the term could cause panic, officials instead described
the global epidemic as having "pandemic potential", while claiming that they weren't yet
observing the "uncontained global spread" of the virus.
“Plan what you have do and do it well. There is no joy to compare with the joy that
comes from work well done” Your plan leads you to work for result. This contingency plan is
prepared by School Advisory Council purposely to serve as guide in executing the SDRRM
programs and activities to be prepared. The focus of this plan is to make the children and
school personnel to become aware on how to do or what to do on in times of PANDEMIC.
The significance of this plan is to make school become safer and learner-centered. As the
mission of the SDRRM-NE “ Iba ang May Alam” “ Laging Handa” in the New Normal
Sto. Domingo Central School is one of the big schools in the District of Sto.
Domingo. The school is spearheaded by JOSEPHINE B. CHICO School Principal IV,
working harmoniously with twenty-three (36) competent and dedicated permanent teachers,
two hard-working (Administrative Assistants), three (3) Utility-Security Officers, and Seven
Hundred thirty-eight (863) enrollees as of this month of August 2022.
The school is very accessible by all means of transportation and communication. The
school is vulnerable to COVID-19 since location is the heart of the town wherein some of the
students came from different barangays of Sto. Domingo.

The world has experienced a prolonged period of uncertainty and unrest caused by the
SARS-COV2 responsible for the Corona-virus or COVID-19 pandemic. To date it has
already affected the lives of peoples in almost 200 countries (and still counting) globally. The
human cost is rapidly being matched by huge economic costs.
There is still considerable uncertainty around the fatality rates of COVID-19 and
definitely it varies depending on the quality of local health care and the availability of test
kits to determine the number of people positively suffering with the virus. In fact, when one
considers the rapidly changing numbers of the mortality and transmissibility, the figures
quickly get scary.
Unfortunately, Sto. Domingo Central School, recorded 2 personnel and 1 learner in
Grade 6 learner who are infected from the virus. However, there is no recorded death from
the virus among personnel and learners.
