Abstract
Education will always be a powerful force in shaping
future generations. The current COVID-19 pandemic
represents a teachable moment that can reformulate
societies. While India is grappling with colossal challenges
as COVID-19 has re-calibrated our lifestyles, we
must prepare to attempt to restore normalcy. Since
children cannot be expected to adhere to social
distancing guidelines, they are especially vulnerable
to be infected transmitters and asymptomatic
carriers. Studies have shown that children contracted
and spread the virus when schools were reopened
in the United States and South Korea. Additionally,
researchers have confirmed that it is possible to get
COVID-19 a second time after a few months when
the immune system has lost the ability to resist the virus.
