MASS protests against police brutality have set off an extraordinary chain of events across the country but could exacerbate the coronavirus spread as demonstrators have been warned: "Assume you were infected".
"Tell people that you may have been exposed to COVID,' he said at his daily press conference on Thursday. “There is no doubt the coronavirus enjoys people getting together closely for prolonged periods of time who are chanting and yelling,” he said.“Chanting and yelling means inhaling more air and breathing more deeply, and if someone is shedding the virus it’s more likely you’ll get an infectious dose if you’re next to them.
According to Dr Schaffner, the true impact of the protests on the rate of coronavirus infections will be difficult to distinguish from the upward trend linked to communities reopening “and returning to conventional activities” after weeks of stay-at-home orders. He warned that anyone attending the rallies “shouldn’t then go and visit grandma” in following weeks.

Naaaaa because COVID doesn’t get you if you protesting for black lives 🙄🙄 At least thats what I would have thought the way people are gathering... it’s Bloody ridiculous! People didn’t get to go to the funerals of loved ones that passed away incase but it’s ok in this case 🙄🙄
Black or white, leftie or stupid. If you get the virus because you were protesting then take some responsibility and except you have nobody else to blame but yourself.
