Hi Zoë, Sweden never closed day-care/primary/middle schools during pandemic, with zero #COVID19 deaths among 1.8 million kids ages 1-15. Teachers had no excess risk compared to other professions. https://folkhalsomyndigheten.se/contentassets/c1b78bffbfde4a7899eb0d8ffdb57b09/covid-19-school-aged-children.pdf …
Thank you, Martin, for hammering this point
Could that be because so many of the vulnerable were already deceased? I saw some disturbingly high mortality rates coming out of Sweden. Far from other Scandavian countries. A lead advisor regrets the course he championed and is now hushed up? Could be wrong.
But Sweden has a lower Covid mortality rate than other demographically similar countries such as U.K., Italy, and the Netherlands.
A few teachers and staff may die but it’s worth it 
The report makes separate risk estimates day-care teachers, primary/middle school teachers and high school teachers. Check it out! https://www.folkhalsomyndigheten.se/contentassets/c1b78bffbfde4a7899eb0d8ffdb57b09/covid-19-school-aged-children.pdf …
Wasn’t Sweden’s death rate higher than its neighbours? I don’t think the worry is that children will die from COVID-19 but that they would spread it.
Swedish education promotes kids to stay at school for shortest possible time, and surrounding countries provided cushion to attack rate. I don't see they acknowledge these.
Could be a function of class size and facilities.
Data from Sweden is trash.
