Saber cómo impacta la covid-19 en los niños y adolescentes es vital para tener un retorno a lecciones presenciales de forma segura.

Países de Europa y Estados Unidos comienzan a abrir las aulas y esto da pie a muchas preocupaciones. En algunos casos se han visto brotes de covid-19 en centros educativos, lo que lleva a exigir mayores precauciones para determinar en qué momento es sabio reabrir estos espacios.
