Popis: As schools prepare for the start of the Fall 2020 semester, many are struggling to make decisions regarding whether or not to return to on-campus classes or whether to remain fully online. Unfortunately, there is no ‘one-size-fits-all’ answer, and schools must balance their own risks against the costs of remote learning. We present a tool that integrates information about study body composition with predictions of COVID-19 infection rates in order to provide clarity and insight into the decisions facing colleges and universities nationwide. Our tool is freely available and currently hosted at the following location: https://bewicklab.shinyapps.io/covid-1/
