There is ample scientific and epidemiological evidence to indicate it is safe to reopen schools for children of all ages. It is not a question of whether to reopen schools, but what should be done to bring children back to the classroom.

For most infections affecting humans, the young and old are most at risk while adults enjoy relatively more protection. If this age distribution is plotted on a graph, it appears in the shape of a ‘U’. The age distribution for severe disease and mortality due to Covid-19 is different since the infection causes only mild illness in all children.

The plotting of Covid-19 infection according to the age of the infected gives a ‘J’ shaped curve, with a 10-year-old being at the base of the J and at the lowest risk. The short arm of the J represents infections in the age group of 0–9 years and the long arm of children 11 years and older. From the base of the Covid-19 curve, the risk of severe disease increases in both directions. However, all children — in the 0–17 years age group —are at very low risk in comparison with adults.
