Here is another correlation for you, why have counties like Sumter and most of the rest in Florida that did not have large protests not show any large spikes in new cases? They all reopened May 4 as well.

Also, 3 of the biggest spikes have occurred in Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach, all three of these are operating under tighter restrictions than the rest of Florida.
Those counties get a lot of TOURISTS. Also, they contain many ethnic groups that DO NOT have the luxury of another ethnic group that can work from home. Lots of variables. A little logic and empathy forces out the answer.
