![Should COVID Be Closing Our Schools?
A discussion of the many considerations when making a decision as to whether schools should be open or closed on account of COVID-19. This is an incredibly complicated topic; the relevant literature includes countless papers spanning medicine, public health, education, and economics. I know that I cant do it justice in 17 minutes.
As always, respectful discussion is welcome. Insults, profanity, and pseudoscience are not. These comments are moderated.
