Understanding the effectiveness of a school closure in limiting social interaction and the economic impact of school closure on households is critical when developing guidelines to prevent spread of pandemic influenza. A New York City survey conducted in June 2009 in 554 households affected by the 2009 pandemic influenza H1N1-related school closures showed that, during closure, 30% of students visited at least 1 locale outside their homes. If all the adults in the home were employed, an ill child was less likely to leave home. In 17% of the households, at least 1 adult missed some work because of the closure. If all adults in the home were employed, someone was more likely to take time off work. If other children were in the household, it was less likely that an adult took time off work. The findings of our study will be important when developing future pandemic school-closure guidance.
在制定预防大流行性流感传播的指南时，了解学校关闭在限制社会互动方面的有效性以及学校关闭对家庭的经济影响至关重要。2009 年 6 月在纽约市对受 2009 年大流行性流感 H1N1 相关学校关闭影响的 554 户家庭进行的一项调查显示，在关闭期间，30%的学生至少去过家以外的 1 个地方。如果家中所有成年人都有工作，患病儿童离家的可能性就较小。在 17%的家庭中，至少有 1 名成年人因关闭而缺勤。如果家中所有成年人都有工作，那么有人更有可能请假。如果家中还有其他孩子，则成年人请假的可能性较小。在制定未来大流行期间的学校关闭指南时，我们的研究结果将非常重要。
