Three people connected to the outbreak have died of the virus, Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention spokesman Robert Long told CNN.FOLLOW LIVE CORONAVIRUS UPDATESThe wedding was held in Millinocket on August 7. Since then, the cases have spread to a nursing home and a prison, both more than 100 miles away from the venue. The wedding outbreak investigation as of Thursday was still at 56 cases among the guests and their secondary and tertiary contacts.

You open a tube of glitter in your basement then two weeks later you are in the attic and all you find is glitter and have no idea how it got there," Maine CDC Director Dr. Nirav Shah said on August 25."That's what Covid-19 is like. You open up glitter in Millinocket and next thing you know you are finding traces of it at a jail complex in York County. It's just emblematic of how quickly, silently and efficiently it can spread.

What is really frightening is when people in Florida, particularly Orlando, brag about how safe it is to go to bars and other venues there. It lulls people to go to these places under false pretenses and puts them at risk so business owners can make $.

You lot simply don't get it, You'll be hitting the jackpot soon 'Congratulations' 1 Million, 🤣😂🇬🇧

Weddings attract the Rona. Only peaceful protests are immune

Boy! There are some cold- hearted comments.

Involuntary manslaughter is defined as negligence resulting in the death of another. Do you think the bride and groom should face criminal charges?

Yeah, okay. I wonder what the real numbers and real stories are. So much disinformation and sensationalism done by the media these days it's ridiculous.

🤡🤦🏼😂😂😂

I’m invincible...

Why isn’t any of your news breaking ? It’s possible because it’s all fake !

Bullshit

well, you don't listen to medical science and this is what you get. 147 new cases. Some deaths probably guaranteed.

The Chinese News Network killed way more people with their devisive , race baiting headlines .

And still not one positive from all of the protests, riots and looting!! Seems like mainstream media is implying that you won’t get COVID if you protests, riot or loot...absolutely amazing!!

If you absolutely have to get married right now, why not have a small ceremony no more then 10 (parents & siblings) then when this COVID is over have a blow out reception. I would not want to me responsible for contributing to someone's death.

And about the same amount of infections from Sturgis where there were nearly 500,000 in attendance around the same time frame. But Sturgis is being called a superspreader event.

Bullshit! Yet rioting and looting is perfectly safe🤡😂

Why does no one ever trace the cases from one of the fucking riots that you promote all day? I’m sure it’s way the fuck more than 147

'Remember your wedding guys?' 'How could we forget !' 'Of course you can't...you are alive !'....Sigh.

was it the cake?

Hope theyr proud of themselves. Selfishness costs lives

Bahahahahahah, CNN you are a joke!!! Really, in a couple weeks 147 of the people at the wedding all got tested and results are back showing all positive and 3 people there suddenly died. Why, why do you even put this crap out?

Fake news

Back it up with honest journalism

You reported it now, prove it.

——CNN-HAVING NERVOUS BREAKDOWN WEEKENED—-THEY ARE TRYING TO TRASH TRUMP-after seeing how Bad a candidate SHAKY JOE IS -🤣🙃🤣🙃🙃🙃🤣🤣🤣

So much hate for our president who has done so much for our country, makes it clear to me, this corrupt cabal clearly hates our country as well considering their trying to destroy it! Vote red, preserve and protect our constitutional republic from the radical left trash!!!

But but the Democrat riots don't get affected with the Chinese Virus.. CNN SUCKS..

Sure it wasn’t a riot?

Oh , comimg from CNN IT MUST BE TRUE..

But, AT ALL cost, the couple got the reception they wanted. That's all that matters, isn't it?

You do realize that by these standards of “one life is too many” we will never go back to the way it was before.

Every one will remember the date.

Who gives a shit about CNN reporting 😱CNN to me is the fascist Marxist news outlet equals CCP😄

weddingshaming

Bullshit

I bet they wear masks at the funerals.

Chinese Communist Party is devil, it created bioweapon coronavirus in army lab, all Chinese and other peoples in the world are victim, please stand with the New Federal State of China to take down CCP! Please check the interview of the CCP virus truth!

Evil Knievel would’ve even try to jump to these conclusions.

doesnt look like a church,nice try. now do movie theaters

Covid is just a lethal as the normal flu quit trying to spread BS to cause a panic and more riots its sad that people wanna just sit around posting shit like this

Lies

Complete stupidity - the bride and groom for hosting, and the guests for going.

Yes, the war or marriage and families must now include Covid-19

Inside ,no mask, dancing breathing heavy, people from all over! What do think is going to happen! Look at The Rock’s story!

So nobody who attended the wedding died? Secondary people in nursing homes and a prison did. What complete BS this story is

Probably all related

FakeNews

All bullshit. All of it.

And maybe the 3 people who unfortunately died had underlying issues?

But still 0 deaths from the blm protests 🙄

Reporting about a wedding but not rioting in the streets... C’mon man you know the thing

Never ever listen to Trumpy !

Bull shit

My wedding in August was amazing. 140 guests. Been 3 weeks. No cases. Everyone relax

How many deaths are now the result of tobacco? Alcohol?

Ahhhh the old “misinterpretation of the rule defense”

What's a more memorable way to celebrate the beginning of a new life than ending 3 of them?

You are under reporting the numbers.

Sure weddings are allowed to happen but at some point there is self responsibility. They still choose to attend the wedding and likely not wear masks

How sad. It's so unfortunate these people weren't warned something like this could happen... 🙄

Wow that wedding killed.

beirut like

You can’t be too harsh on the couple getting married tho. Common sense on the guests is not to go during a pandemic TBH

Have there been any COVID cases linked to protesting?

Maybe the words “virus” and “contagious” are too complicated. Would it help if the CDCgov starting using the word “cooties” instead? 🤔🙄

That’s pretty much the whole population of Maine

An unforgettable wedding for all participants 🤦

iT wAs OnLy ThReE dEaThS aNd ThEy wErE pRoBaBlY oLd AnD oBeSe

Hope the self-centered newlyweds are happy!

Holy

Biden supporters are the criminal protesters

Covid-19 is going to continue to spread bcuz the Government do not know how to Slow it Down! It’s time for you all to Listen KamalaHarris SpeakerPelosi

😮 Dear lobster

As if going to a wedding isn't bad enough...

Why does this keep happening in Blue States?

Oh what memories they will have 10 years from now, assuming they’re still even married.

Why can a wedding spread covid but a riot doesn't?

over 70,000 are linked to 5 democratic governors

That’s it? Only three? So why are freaking out?
