LONDON - Anti-racism protests attended by thousands of people in London and other major British cities “undoubtedly” risk causing an increase in the number of COVID-19 cases again, British health minister Matt Hancock said on Sunday. Thousands of people attended protests on Saturday to voice their anger at police brutality after the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis, ignoring government advice to avoid large gatherings due to the risk from coronavirus.
Asked during an interview on Sky News whether the number attending protests made an increase in COVID-19 cases more likely, Hancock said: “It is undoubtedly a risk.” “I support very strongly the argument that is being made by those who are protesting ... but the virus itself doesn’t discriminate and gathering in large groups is temporarily against the rules precisely because it increases the risk of the spread of this virus.”

Many people have died during the protests. The media has refused to cover them. Their silence is violence.
of course it does. people gathered, and then covid infected.. such a natural process...
So arrests and fine them . Otherwise it’s pointless

Totally, Obamagate groups don’t care, as long as they can achieve the goal of voting via mail to cheat, then they can sacrifice all. These fools are not their kids. They paid for people be there at the protest.
These coordinated protests use racism as a backdrop. In fact, it is to cause social unrest and chaos in these countries, which are already experiencing an economic and health crisis. Who cares about that?
