    Snippet: We model the impact of school closures by county using a compartmental model with an age-structured SEIR framework 22 . We divide the population into four age groups: 0-19 years, 29-39 years, 40-59 years, and 60+ years. Transmission events occur through contact between susceptible and infectious individuals. Since rates of contact differ between age groups, we construct a WAIFW (Who Acquires Infection From Whom) matrix from non-physical and physi.....
    Document: We model the impact of school closures by county using a compartmental model with an age-structured SEIR framework 22 . We divide the population into four age groups: 0-19 years, 29-39 years, 40-59 years, and 60+ years. Transmission events occur through contact between susceptible and infectious individuals. Since rates of contact differ between age groups, we construct a WAIFW (Who Acquires Infection From Whom) matrix from non-physical and physical contact data between age groups 23 . We assume that social distancing will result in a 50% reduction of interactions and school closures will result in a 90% reduction in interactions among children 24 . Since increased household interactions is often cited as an unintended side effect of school closures 2526 , we also increase interactions between children and other age groups by 10%.
