[quote=Anonymous]Someone in another thread cited to this non-partisan study of the effects that Texas reopening schools before other school districts did had on Covid rates and it turned out that an estimated 40,000 people got covid as a result and 800 more people died. [url]https://www.texastribune.org/2021/05/10/texas-schools-coronavirus-increase-study/[/url] The newspaper article notes the competing tension between the positive effects on kid's mental health (and academic performance) from reopening schools vs. the negative effects, obviously, of having people die and prolonging the effects of the disease. It also notes that having your teachers die can also cause trauma for kids so you have to split the mental health benefit/risk calculations. (Beyond the obvious actual negative effects of the teacher deaths themselves, of course.)[/quote]
