GNR confirms "presence of bedbugs" at school and suspends in-person classes

Diário de Coimbra15 September 2026 at 18:45

The National Republican Guard confirmed the presence of bedbugs at a school, which led to the suspension of in-person classes. The Guard training course that was taking place at the facilities was interrupted due to the existence of this plague.

The authorities identified the infestation in the school facilities, where the training course was being held. After confirmation of the presence of bedbugs, it was decided to suspend in-person teaching activities as a preventive measure.

The situation was communicated by the competent authorities, who took control of the situation. The GNR, as the entity responsible for training its Guards, decided to halt the course until the plague was eliminated.

This type of infestation in training spaces is relatively rare, but can occur in any building. The authorities will now have to proceed with decontamination of the facilities before they can resume normal activities.

Why this matters

Readers in the region are directly affected by the suspension of in-person classes at this school, which houses a GNR training course. The official confirmation of the presence of bedbugs indicates that the situation requires decontamination measures before returning to normal activities. This incident follows the recent trend of reports of bedbug plagues in public spaces and institutions in various regions.
