Even if The Lancet study said what Dr. Oz mistakenly thinks it says, this is a bad suggestion since it means several thousand excess deaths. But in fact Lancet study was referring to % increase if there is no other mitigation, which means tens of thousands excess death.https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1250807416872189952 …
But the Lancet study isn't super relevant since it is about school closures as the sole policy (sans other social distancing). That's very different than what is being proposed.pic.twitter.com/O4ChZiF9eB

That seems totally relevant, since he was proposing the exact policy in reverse - opening schools while keeping other social distancing rules in place.

It’s not that radical an argument - lots of epidemiologists questioned whether school closures made sense for this virus given the corollary social costs.
