Let me first say that I am Not merely being a 'devil's advocate'.
Education is Not just learning Facts. It is also the interaction between individuals in a classroom, and on a playground.
If I may extend this a little. It is also better in a Public School, where there is a variety of types of students... nationalities, abilities, etc.
We learn by being exposed to others with both Better, and Lesser abilities. Those with learning deficits, language barriers, and even physical difficulties.
Also, while this Covid-19 is a poor example, we should not generally hide away from germs in general. Excessive cleanliness is not necessarily a good thing. There cannot / will not be vaccines for every single cold germ in existence, and we should not become like the early Native American that did not have immunity to what was a normal immunity in Europe.
