VIDEO TRANSCRIPT:

Some children, if you say, stay at home, home is not necessarily a good place, school may be the safest place for them.

I'm Doctor Robert Bransfield, I'm a psychiatrist in Red Bank, New Jersey, and this is my second opinion. CDC guidelines are things that are assistance for decision making. I think there's some parts of those guidelines for the schools getting back that have some merit. Children have to interact, and they have to have that connection, it's a very critical part of their development. Some children, if you say, stay at home, home is not necessarily a good place, school may be the safest place for them. If we move that, there can be great risk for development that will evolve over years.

This particularly affects young people that are high school children, they can't do their outdoor activities, people that aren't very connected, people that are socially disconnected and single are particularly having trouble. If you tell people to stay in their homes and do nothing, you might see the number of deaths reported from COVID drop within a week, two weeks, a few weeks. That's an immediate obvious change.

But when you isolate people and prevent them from having meaningful, engaging lives, that takes a toll that can be much greater that's harder to measure. In medicine, we always make risk-benefit decisions, and there's a risk of doing nothing, and there's a risk of doing something. But when you shut the world down, there's great risks that many people in infectious disease and epidemiology just don't understand. I'm particularly annoyed with the phrase, social distancing. We can do physical distancing, but we should not do social distancing, we should remain socially connected, even if sometimes we're physically distancing.
