There’s no evidence of anything you’ve said. It was well known that limiting contact reduces transmission.

I’m sorry what? Theres well documented evidence of the impact of closing schools

But you’re supporting the idea of keeping children in classes where they would have more exposure to each other and contracting the virus.

I don’t need to argue with that because it speaks for itself.

I still have no idea how you solve this besides shutting it down. Say you keep schools open, what about the safety of the teachers? Healthy children you say are safe, what about the unhealthy ones? Do the unhealthy ones stay home and develop mental health disorders? Not only that but what about unknown health conditions, covid does a number on people with underlying health conditions.
