(Pupil Spacing=(calculation of *Masks+*HEPA+*Ventilation)
This can be extrapolated for other applications activities including Business ...
Presumably if mitigation measures result in =<50% infection rate over time.
Population infection rate does not rise as a function of this activity occurring.

THIS ESSENTIAL WORK HAS ALREADY BEEN DONE:
All appreciation should be directed to the people mentioned below.
Please follow and lend them your support and appreciation.
Would it be possible for a theoretical mathematician an expert in aerosole transmission and or ventillation to collaberate on the realtime effects of varying degrees of Ventilation vs Space Vs Children within a good safety margin in respect to classroom sizes and no. of students.
Some other parameters:
Air Changes and co2 monitoring.
Standard room sizes and cohort pupil sizes.
Volume of air in room (not all ceiling heights same.)
Movement to from classrooms. Length of lessons. etc.
A Cost benefit calculation could then be made in respect of price of equiptment vs cost to pupil numbers, education etc.
1. Consistent implementation of layered mitigation strategies to reduce transmission of SARS-CoV2 in schools 2. Indicators of community transmission to reflect level of community risk 3. Phased mitigation and learning modes based on levels of community transmission
"additional layers of COVID-19 prevention in schools:
• Testing to identify individuals with SARS-CoV-2 infection to limit transmission and outbreaks
• Vaccination for teachers and school staff, and in communities, as soon as supply allows
Fiona Bruce:
"I`m a Doctor in Melbourne vaccinations alone are not going to be enough"
"we need input from occupational hygienists, aerosol experts and ventilation engineers"
"why is there not national guidance which accepts the reality that airborne transmission is an important mode of spread for this virus and adopts the precautionary principle to protect workers from the airborne spread of this virus with fit tested n95 masks and other measures."
