That interesting preprint from earlier this year is now published! Main finding is that the MARGINAL benefit of many interventions may be small, so e.g. stay-at-home may not reduce COVID-19 cases if schools/unis are already closedhttps://science.sciencemag.org/content/early/2020/12/15/science.abd9338 …

Should note that this research does not differentiate causal impact, so it is very hard to know whether these interventions were themselves the cause of the drop in cases. Still, it is quite an interesting examination of the impact associated with them

or because joung ppl/teenagers in some cases are asymptomatic superspreaders (as a number of your colleagues say)?... just see what happened in october in most of Europe with schools reopening at the end of september, or what happened in Israel

Also, in Germany’s light lockdown during the second wave, schools remained open despite applying other NPI measures, resulting in cases, deaths, and transmission still increasing.

Just noting that this study couldn't differentiate between closure of schools and universities, so it can't really tell us about the impact of school closures alone.
