Abstract
It is increasingly clear that online learning--especially for younger children--has been one of the most difficult #COVID transitions, with levels of engagement, retention, and mental health plummeting. At the same time, more and more evidence suggests that children under the age of 13 are relatively unlikely to transmit or become seriously sick with the virus. The debate is now escalating around the damage that will be done to students with schools closed, the risks that vulnerable teachers will face with schools open, and the role of vaccine prioritization in potentially threading the needle. This week’s COVID Law Briefing tackles the ongoing issue and recommends strategies for renewed cooperation.
Description
The COVID-19 Law and Policy Briefings, hosted in two series from March 2020 through July 2021, feature US and international public health law experts discussing the biggest legal issues arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. The briefings are produced by the George Consortium, co-sponsored by the Center for Health Policy and Law at Northeastern University School of Law, the Center for Public Health Law Research at Temple University Beasley School of Law, and the APHA Law Section. Visit Public Health Law Watch (http://bit.ly/COVIDLawBriefing) to watch episodes. All past briefings are also archived by The Week in Health Law podcast.
