ALL first-year students and several staff members of Republic Polytechnic have been told to stay away for seven days from Thursday, after nine cases of H1N1 were confirmed there.
The move affects 4,500 students and 16 teachers and makes the polytechnic the first to adopt Ministry of Education measures aimed at preventing mass local transmission of the flu virus.

So the Polytechnic won't become a new cluster but the students are now free to roam the streets with *more* time. Isn't that worse?
