TitanTiger 20,482 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Your title says 300k cases but the story says 30k. As far as the rest, I'm not smart enough to poke holes in the methodology and given that the story just dropped a day or two ago, it'll probably take a little bit for someone with the wherewithal to dissect it and give any pushback. I do think it makes sense that packing people into small areas without physical distancing and little mask use would cause at least some kind of uptick in infections in the area. I also think it's logical to ask whether similar upticks occurred during various protest rallies and if not, why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how many deaths are being attributed to the “peaceful” social justice demonstrations we’ve been seeing for the past several months?
