Closing schools actually causes more Covid 19 deaths long term

This has probably already been discussed to death on here but I found this article surprising.

Also the over 70s and ECV most likely to need health care so how safe is that going to be if tve virus rips through. Honestly how many times has this been discussed?

The paper being reviewed was accepted on 15th September, so the data they have used must be older than that.

Therefore, they have incredibly limited data for the autumn term, if at all, when schools were open as normal.

I'd argue the paper is out of date, and doesn't take into account the surges in cases we have seen in the autumn term related to school openings.
