No claims were made, Bucco! Only a readiness to observe the outcome. There may or may not be a spike. It's way too early to tell. Nobody's making any claims. Not sure why you're being so critical. My only "claim" is that this could be an interesting epidemiological experiment, wholly objective, as experiments are.

Again, my hypothesis is predicated on the majority of attendees of yesterday's event being from the Villages. That's what WOULD make this assembly different from other rallies and demonstrations. From what I understand, attendees of political rallies and demonstrations are typically not all from one clearly defined local area like the Villages.

I admit I may be wrong in thinking most of yesterday's attendees were from the Villages, in which case it would not be possible to draw a conclusion about the prevalence or transmissibility of the virus. Full disclosure.
