Yale School of Public Health professor, and author of the study, David Paltiel joins 'The Story.'.

"The analysis shows that there is a safe way to reopen college where the key element of the plan is screening all students for the virus at very high frequency every two or three days using a rapid, inexpensive test alongside strict, vigilant adherence to social distancing and other basic prevention practices," Yale School of Public Health professor A.

The study, which used digital simulations to track how the virus would spread among a hypothetical cohort of 5,000 students, was conducted by researchers from the Yale School of Public Health, Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School?

The study comes as academic institutions across the country grapple with how to educate students during the coronavirus pandemic.

The professor went on to warn that some colleges "are considering the option of carefully monitoring students for just symptoms of COVID and using those signs [or] symptoms to trigger testing and isolation and contact tracing.
