Summary: The delay in reopening schools in Brazil contrasts with successful strategies implemented worldwide. This study suggests that a pooled-sample PCR testing strategy can effectively prevent infection spreading in schools at a reasonable cost. The article also discusses the potential combination of this test strategy with internationally recognized safety rules to ensure a safe return to school and provides insights on how different countries are dealing with educational activities during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Emergency remote teaching evaluation of the higher education in Indonesia

Ani Cahyadi et al.

Summary: This study introduces the qualitative and quantitative results obtained in a pilot study of emergency remote teaching (ERT) evaluation in Indonesian higher education, aiming to provide basic principles for future ERT implementation. The findings suggest that ERT principles can be viewed as a complementary tool for ERT design, with affordability and flexibility rated lowest based on student experiences in Indonesian higher education. The lack of access to fast, affordable, and reliable Internet connection in some areas poses a fundamental challenge in ERT implementation, likely applicable in other developing countries as well.

A pre-COVID-19 assessment of aspects of the school health programme in some selected Nigerian primary schools: implications for school re-opening during the COVID-19 pandemic in developing country contexts

Summary: A study in Nigeria found that public schools had significantly higher student-teacher ratios compared to private schools, with only a small percentage of schools employing qualified health personnel. While the majority of schools conducted health talks for disease control, the use of temporary isolation and school-based immunization was low. Additionally, public schools had limited access to pipe-borne water and soap for handwashing compared to private schools.

Omar Irfan et al.

Summary: In comparison to adults, children showed similar national and subnational prevalence in population-screening studies, and lower odds of infection in community/household contact-tracing studies. Adolescents had comparable risk with adults in communities, while children attending daycare/preschools were at lower risk compared to adults in educational settings. Overall, children and adolescents had lower odds of infection in educational settings compared to community and household clusters.
