Shows that schools can be opened safely even in areas with high community spread.[/quote]

Just because schools are open where there is high community spread doesn't mean it's happening safely.  In fact, it could be those areas are not closing down enough and causing the high community spread. [/quote]

You can keep making up your own theories to justify your position, or you can listen to the experts who are saying that schools are not significant drivers of community spread.[/quote]
Except there is a lot of data and a lot of experts who say otherwise. Like here:

The people saying that schools are drivers of community spread are largely scientists, whereas the people who say schools are magical transmission free zones are largely politicians. Not that difficult to see why a politician might want schools open, pretty hard to see why a scientist or data analyst would lie about this.[/quote]
