COVID-19 Projections for K12 Schools in Fall 2021: Significant Transmission without Interventions
https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.08.10.21261726v1
Without testing and masking R0 = 4.0
More than 75% of susceptible students get infected within three
months in all settings
With masks, R0 = 2.0
The proportion infected drops to approximately 50%
Testing further drops infections
High, 22%
Mid, 16%
Low, 13%
Conclusion
Without interventions in place, the vast majority of susceptible students will become infected through the semester.
Universal masking can reduce student infections by 26-78%, and biweekly testing along with masking reduces infections by another 50%.
To prevent new infections in the community, limit school absences, and maintain in-person learning, interventions such as masking and testing must be implemented widely, especially among elementary school settings in which children are not yet eligible for the vaccine.
