Miami-Dade’s mayor said Sunday protests “had a lot to do with” coronavirus spread.

that urban protests reignited Covid-19 case growth during the more than three weeks following protest onset.”

New York City, for example, had large protests in the days following the death of George Floyd, but the city did not record a coronavirus spike as a result. Notably, Rep. Kevin McCarthy —the top Republican in the U.S. House—said in an interview last week that he believed protests were partially to blame for coronavirus increases“I think obviously the protests had a lot to do with it,” Giménez said. “We had, you know, thousands of young people together outside, a lot of them not wearing masks. And we know that when you do that and you are talking and you are chanting, etc. that really spreads the virus.

What researchers?

Every extra interaction of contagious people with “not yet ill” increases covid-19 spread 😄. Protests. Celebrations. Beach holidays. 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️ doesn’t matter.

false narrative. for example, contact tracers in NYC were specifically banned from asking whether someone had attended protests. BS data = BS 'analysis' results. SteveDeaceShow PatUnleashed realDonaldTrump

Who are these researchers? And seems to me all the research and experiments of past are now missing and how could any research be worth anything in this short time period when there are too many variables

Not using all data-in New York they won’t ask if you were at a protest if you test positive- terribly sad the governor in New York wields so much power across the country-he has too much air time

So then why did democrats say the protests against the lockdowns were so bad?

Virus doesn’t take side in political dispute. It only spreads in pubs and restaurants. It’s new advanced 21st century virus not some old bulsshit virus that doesn’t know what is doing😅😅🤦‍♂️

Because if you inhale the smoke of a nearby burning Wendy's, AutoZone or elk statue, it kills coronavirus. It's ScienceTM

It definitely didn’t help

Huh?

Great. Masks work. Open the economy.

Why are the American People even paying attention to the mainstream media anymore? Read the headline. DIVISION. It’s how they sell their product. The People need to wake up; stop being divided by media narratives.

The virus really doesn't care.

We don’t believe you.

Ohhhh my Covid is so socialist it won’t infect at BLM protests. 🤣🤣🤣🤪🤪🤣🤣🤣

Then why the hell can’t we and our kids do whatever the hell we used to be legally allowed to do outdoors before this Nation-Destroying PLANdemic?

TrueStory. Apparently BlackLivesMatter protesters did not spread Coronavirus, but YellowLivesMatter protesters did😎

How would reasearchers even know since the tracers weren’t even allowed to ask the question. Do you all think we are that stupid.

Sure they didn't.

This headline can’t be real

👍

Lol. Of coarse they did. 😂😂😂

If yall notice those protest were held outside AND most people WORE MASKS....not because social distancing and masks dont work...duh You that are trying to make the case that we can go back to business as usual sound stupid. DontBeAhTwatWearAMask

But for God’s sake don’t go near a gym or church, that’s where the Rona lurks.

BYW...Local news in Broward and Miami/Dade Counties did report that the spike was partially due to protests. There were two bumps in the spike. The timing for each aligned with the opening and the protests respectively.

So all those social distancing is a joke? Should we reopen the world?

From Tony__Heller Fraudulent science and fraudulent journalism. The data shows otherwise.

Lol

I’m so grateful that economists now double as epidemiologists. Helpful!

Recent Tests show blacks are immune to covid19 BLM

So doesnt this mean that closing the economy is pointless?

Yea..sure... Of course you don't want to blame blacks and progressive fat blue haired women for killing grandma. You terrorist supporting POS.

enough now no need to protest now its time to go for work

Of course not. Any intelligent person can surmise that large gatherings of people in close proximity without masks yelling, sweating, touching wouldn’t cause any reasons for concern when there is a global pandemic going on.

It's understood that researchers who fail to support the sacrosanct BLM narrative will have their careers destroyed.

From propping up fake billionaires to fake research. Good Times 👍
