    I would not be surprised at all if hybrid school was the worst possible combination by creating bridges between otherwise separate networks – which is exactly what you wanna avoid in a pandemic.https://twitter.com/katetaylornyt/status/1361737768892776452 …

    zeynep tufekci added,

    CDC guidelines advise that all schools operate in hybrid mode (not 100% of students in school all the time) at higher levels of transmission. Modeling suggests this reduces transmission. But models don't take into account what students are going to be doing on their days off.

        Yeah. If schools can open, they should open. Halfway or unnecessary measures don't help, and can make transmission challenges *worse*.https://twitter.com/jessica_bassett/status/1361818477754015749 …

        The mid-week hygiene theater shutdown does the same thing. Parents don’t get Wednesdays off, kids have to go somewhere. Group childcare, in homes, unmasked is a common solution.

        3.8 million K-12 teachers. Vaccinating 1.5 million + a day now. Why don't states immediately vaccinate teachers NOW and send them in person in 3 weeks, with 80% + protection from infection? I do not get the public policy on this currently

        Some states are. For example, CO opened vaccinations to teachers on Feb. 8th. It seems like CDC should have made this recommendation.

        It can be quite good, we are doing this in some school districts and going well, i opted for in class, my sister in diff district is doing hybrid so her daughter still on track despite working at home. Depends on student though, we're lucky many districts flexible. ( BC, canada)

        It seems they have given that some thought. Not a perfect model obviously:https://twitter.com/ambilinski/status/1361762985639821314 …

        We did our best to model this. We assumed fewer precautions are taken outside of schools such that transmission risk is 2x higher out of school than inside of it. We found that >9 families would have to mix per day for hybrid to be worse. https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.01.27.21250388v1 …

        Exactly the reason we decided to stay fully remote. Not to mention the disruption to an already disrupted year. For, what, 15 days of in-person instruction? That seems not worth it.
