Hi,  
My daughter is studying in the 3rd grade, and she has asthma since she was four years old. Now, things have become worse due to the COVID-19 outbreak. I have read that asthma patients will have more complications from COVID-19.  
We are concerned about sending her back to the school and spoke to her principal regarding this. She told me that they have restructured the school’s health management structure and are implementing new technologies to enhance students’ health. They have [a School Health Services software](https://www.eduhealthsystem.com/), which keeps track of the student’s overall health and can be accessed by the parents too.  
I need your opinion and suggestions regarding this.
