The health folks are concerned about the spread of Covid at protests. The people are jammed together and most don’t wear a mask. They are yelling which propels saliva. Many are among vulnerable minority populations. If we see a large increase of cases in the cities where this is happening , we will have scientists’ warnings confirmed. If that doesn’t happen, it seems that there wouldn’t be a reason to keep schools closed or severely limit crowds. We would need need to rethink restrictions.

I think the lockdown and social distancing are over. I'm not seeing many of our media overlords criticizing the protesters and rioters for their violations of covid 19 protocols.

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.

New coronavirus losing potency, top Italian doctor says
New coronavirus losing potency, top Italian doctor says (https://apple.news/AUvgpYKHcQ2WzDd0c6qd2eg)
ROME (Reuters) - The new coronavirus is losing its potency and has become much less lethal, a senior Italian doctor said on Sunday.
“In reality, the virus clinically no longer exists in Italy,” said Alberto Zangrillo, the head of the San Raffaele Hospital in Milan in the northern region of Lombardy, which has borne the brunt of Italy’s coronavirus contagion.
“The swabs that were performed over the last 10 days showed a viral load in quantitative terms that was absolutely infinitesimal compared to the ones carried out a month or two months ago,” he told RAI television.
...
“The strength the virus had two months ago is not the same strength it has today,” said Matteo Bassetti, head of the infectious diseases clinic at the San Martino hospital in the city of Genoa.
“It is clear that today the COVID-19 disease is different.”

How do you tell a 'protester' from a 'looter?'
'Protesters' don't wear masks!:icon_wink:

Your number is false! Stop spreading the paranoia. People die of a lot of things every day.

China is so happy. We are now officially a 3rd world country.

Nationwide deaths, per Johns Hopkins University tracking dashboard:
May 29 - 1,283;
May 30 - 876;
May 31 - 605.
If you look at the statistics over time, weekend deaths reported tend to be lower than weekday.

Hay, remember when that covid 19 stuff was around and everyone was in danger? Glad that's gone so we can go back to protecting ourselves with guns instead of mask's.

1 of 7 people arrested in one city were not even from that city, so tracking the spread of the virus in one particular city, may not indicate the true picture.

Science is fact. Everything else is propaganda.

A video from Asia is far from being scientific analysis.

Without consequences nothing will stop or change the thugs that are ruining business's and properties.. Other than a few arrests it is going well with the thugs and they have no reason to stop or not to move on to the next "excuse" to rob and kill Americans! The
consequences of these riots must be quick and serious enough to have the thugs recognize that if they are caught it will not be to sit in a good prison and get food and lodging as lazy thugs. My suggestion remains, make them work hard to rebuild the business's and property they have destroyed and they get food that is not great and they (1) serve until all business's and properties have been restored to their prior riot condition in the communities they abused (2) the money earned while in prison e.g. $3+ dollars a day go towards buying the things to restore the building to their original conditions and (3) no bonds will be made available to anyone arrested as a thug in the riots until that community is totally restored. We have to restore the and basic rules of our America
and demonstrate we are a country of laws that will be enforced and there are serious consequences for violators.

Steve. Actually a perfect meme and that’s just what “he” wanted to happen. So “he” turned off the lights in his big house and went to bed.

A very, very big problem and only 2 pages of posters are interested. Can anyone say priorities?
