Which you will NEVER see at any protest the last five months, which has been far worse at spreading Covid than any political rally has, or has it?. But from the media and many on this forum.....crickets.

The Villages Florida

According to the EXPERTS there is no worry about the spread of covid at protests. The reason why..........

1. The protests took place outdoors, allowing the droplets containing the virus to disperse or evaporate. Even opening a window is a key step in keeping viral droplets from lingering. One early study of 1,245 coronavirus cases in China found that only one instance of transmission occurred outdoors: a close conversation where two men also shook hands.

2. The majority of protests also occurred during the day in June, which means sunlight was at play. When exposed to simulated sunlight in a lab, 90% of the virus was inactivated every 6.8 minutes.

So there, It seems that since protests are outside there is little chance of catching Covid at one. I would say the same would apply to an outside political rally. YOU CAN'T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS.
