Yeah I think there’s some perspective missing from that piece. For example it doesn’t really account for risk to the adults in schools. I would think that any objective summary would include that discussion - a lot of teachers died in states that tried to maximize in-person learning. Of course tracing the infection to school is probably impossible from a data standpoint but it’s a meaningful part of the issue.
Yeah, our school district was one that did the remote learning from early on and didn't return to in person until the beginning of this school year, yet at least 3 that I'm aware of died from Covid when they were doing remote learning.
That said, I have questions about how effective their policy has been. I think there's a lot we can learn from this last couple of years and hopefully we'll all do better in the future.
