In spite of the negative wording, this article says what has always been known about contracting Covid-19 out doors. From the article: "There were virtually no cases that we could identify that took place in sort of everyday life outdoors," study author Mike Weed, a professor and researcher at Canterbury Christ Church University, told AFP.

About 9% of all people in the United States have contracted Covid-19. What this article says is that six percent of that nine percent have contracted it outdoors. Someone do the math for me and tell me what the odds are of catching it at the squares.

But read the whole thing here:
Catching coronavirus outside is rare but not impossible
