The O-N-T system:
In Czech, Očkování (Vaccination) – Nemoc (Illness) – Testování (Testing) is a way to prove that one meets the conditions allowing them to enter their workplace, teaching facilities or service facilities. It is based on three basic pillars: vaccination, testing and previous covid-19 diagnosis.
MU buildings
O-N-T employees – only after arrival from abroad
O-N-T students – after arrival from abroad and for the purpose of accommodation
Respirators
University buildings – respirator or a similar device without exhalation valve meeting at least all technical conditions and requirements, including filtration effectiveness of at least 94 % pursuant to the applicable standards (e.g. FFP2, KN 95), that prevents the transmission of particles
Exceptions:
→ music, sports (PE)k
→ student sitting in classroom (including lectures in labs)
