It is indeed a terrible "acid" test, canary in the coalmine.
Where will this crowd go when it disperses? Do all of the folks live close by? People are still dying from Covid-19 according to reputable sites like Johns Hopkins, a little over 1000 people a day are still dying from Covid-19 in the U.S.
