The investigators hypothesize that children are less likely to become infected in the school environment, compared to the household or outside the school setting. Primary schools do not play a major role in SARS-CoV-2 spreading. They hypothesize that incidence level in schools is mainly a consequence of community transmission. The incidence level in household and that the secondary attack rate in schools remains at least 5 times lower that the transmission level in households.

Infection of a child with SARS-CoV-2 secondary to a classmate
Time varying number and proportion of children infected with SARS-CoV-2 secondary to an asymptomatic infected classmate (transmission rate inside school with the child being the infector).
6 weeks
Infection of an adult school-attender with SARS-CoV-2 secondary to an infected child
Time varying number and proportion of adult school-attenders infected with SARS-CoV-2 secondary to an asymptomatic infected child (transmission rate inside school but from a child to an adult).
6 weeks
Infection of a child with SARS-CoV-2 secondary to an adult school attender
Time varying number and proportion of children infected with SARS-CoV-2 secondary to an infected adult school-attender (transmission rate inside school but from an adult to a child)
6 weeks
Infection of a child with SARS-CoV-2 secondary to a contact outside the school, including the household
Time varying number and proportion of children infected with SARS-CoV-2 secondary to a household contact or outside the school (transmission rate from in community).

All Belgian primary schools of the Federation Wallonia - Brussels that have organized a full resumption of school activities with the control measures recommended by the government, are eligible for the study. Twelve schools were chosen by purposive criteria: either high (≥2 classes per grade) or low size of the school, a school within an area with either a high or a low incidence of SARS-CoV-2 during April 2020, the first wave of covid-19 in Belgium, and a school with either a high or a low socioeconomic level (Belgian 20-point-scale ISE idex \>14 or \<6).
