From the beginning of this situation that we all suffer, we were waiting for evolution with all the changes that this damned virus has brought to our lives.
We had to make a decision: move on without knowing what will happen or put our school on hold until we have sufficient guarantees.
We chose to pause school.
During these months of confinement, we tried to get as much as we could information about how the virus could affect when diving.
As you know, SAFETY IS ALWAYS OUR PRIORITY. Until now, it is not known how COVID19 affects during the practice of scuba diving people who have passed the virus with or without symptoms.
On the other hand, the material has to be disinfected, of course and that is the “easiest” thing we can do, but it is not just the material, there is the school, the van, the places where we go diving …
We cannot forget to talk about the safety distance, a distance that we will not always be able to maintain since, if any of our students needs help, we help them. We are a school, not a factory.
For all these reasons, and some that we do not list regarding the high risk of contagion, we made this decision.
But we are convinced that we make a responsible and coherent decision regarding this situation, always thinking about your health and safety and also about ours.
It is a pause that affects only the 2020 season, not a final decision.
We hope to see you all next year.
