School Closures Were a Catastrophic Error. Progressives Still Haven’t Reckoned With It.
"That unnerving implication has a mounting pile of evidence to support it. It is now indisputable, and almost undisputed, that the year and a quarter of virtual school imposed devastating consequences on the students who endured it. Studies have found that virtual school left students nearly half a year behind pace, on average, with the learning loss falling disproportionately on low-income, Latino, and Black students. Perhaps a million students functionally dropped out of school altogether.
The social isolation imposed on kids caused a mental health “state of emergency,” according to the American Academy of Pediatrics. The damage to a generation of children’s social development and educational attainment, and particularly to the social mobility prospects of its most marginalized members, will be irrecoverable."

I know you're a single variable thinker, but this doesn't reckon with unintended positive consequences of COVID restrictions, which include, as I posted, a reduction in child mortality. Any discussion of the harms needs to account for that.
