摘要

即使在全国突发公共卫生事件结束后，学校关闭对COVID-19传播的影响仍不清楚。我们使用与智能手机移动数据相关的1.3亿个家庭每周观察数据的医疗保健索赔数据来衡量县级学校访问变化对COVID-19结果的影响。我们使用了三重差异方法，利用县内有学龄儿童和没有学龄儿童的家庭之间的暴露差异，发现影响不大。我们发现COVID-19感染率上升，在低收入和COVID-19高流行县差异更大。

Back to school: The effect of school visits during COVID-19 on COVID-19 outcomes

The effects of school closures on COVID-19 transmission remain unclear, even after the conclusion of the national Public Health Emergency. We use healthcare claims data from 130 million household-week observations linked to smartphone mobility data to measure the effects of changes in county-level visits to schools on COVID-19 outcomes. We use a triple-differences approach that leverages within-county differences in exposure between families with and without school-age children and find modest impacts. We find increases in COVID-19 infection rates, with larger differences in low-income and higher COVID-19 prevalence counties.
