Abstract
Schools in New York City (NYC) closed in March 2020 to minimize the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak; however, the role of children in disease transmission in the community is unclear. In the present study, the COVID-19 prevalence rates in nine private schools in NYC (Brooklyn and Queens) during the re-opening school phase (Fall 2020, Winter 2021) were determined. The results were analyzed in relation to the COVID-19 diagnostic methods used.
Keywords: COVID 19; reopened private schools.
