A two year review by researchers at McMaster University of Covid-19 in schools and daycares has shown schools and daycares were not a source of significant virus transmission when infection prevention and control measures were engaged. The study was published Thursday in The Lancet Child and Adolescent Health and included more than 34,000 references in child care settings and schools worldwide. 
Guest: Dr. Neil Rau. Infectious diseases specialist at Halton Healthcare and assistant professor of medicine at the University of Toronto Medical School. (He repeatedly on air with us challenged the closure of schools which in Ontario reached a minimum of 135 days.)
