In the context of measures to control the Covid-19 pandemia, risk factors related to reopening of the education system have been overemphasized whereas the risks for health education and social protection of children deriving from persistent closure have been underestimated. A more balanced and comprehensive view is proposed, including the significant risk of spread of infection caused by the uncontrolled socialization of children while parents go back to work. Indications are provided on how to minimize infection risk through accurate screening and monitoring for educators, teachers and caregivers, sanification of the school environment and individual protection measures.

Abstract
In the context of measures to control the Covid-19 pandemia, risk factors related to reopening of the education system have been overemphasized whereas the risks for health education and social protection of children deriving from persistent closure have been underestimated. A more balanced and comprehensive view is proposed, including the significant risk of spread of infection caused by the uncontrolled socialization of children while parents go back to work. Indications are provided on how to minimize infection risk through accurate screening and monitoring for educators, teachers and caregivers, sanification of the school environment and individual protection measures.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
