Small gatherings are becoming a growing source of Covid-19 spread, a leading health expert said, as at least 36 states are now reporting increased cases of the virus and hospitalizations are on the rise nationwide.

"In the public square, we're seeing a higher degree of vigilance and mitigation steps in many jurisdictions," US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Dr. Robert Redfield said during a call with the nation's governors on Tuesday. Audio of the call was obtained by CNN. "But what we're seeing as the increasing threat right now is actually acquisition of infection through small household gatherings," Redfield said.

"In Wisconsin, hospitalizations have nearly tripled in the past month, the governor said, adding that residents should do all they can to help get the virus under control and prevent the state's healthcare system from being overwhelmed. In Washington state, one public health official warned of a dramatic rise in cases. "We're having over 140 cases reported each day over the past week," said Dr.

Lol, except not. The immense stupidity that we either have to lock down FOREVER or get COVID. The president blew it. 6 weeks and over. That means everything after Feb was unnecessary.

Gonna be hard pressed for anyone in the gov’t to stop family from meeting for Thanksgiving.

Large gatherings or protests are not a growing source of Covid-19, an anonymous leading health says... don't worry BLM and Antifa, you are completely safe because your on our side of the aisle

well duh. everyones stopped going to large gatherings so of course youre gunna see a spike in small gatherings lol

NO FUCKING SHIT. Governments have routinely failed to enforce restrictions and have themselves ignored their own rules. The constant flip flopping and lack of reporting on long term effects after infection has the general public believing it's just a heavy Flu.

i absolutely agree with this but i think the huge gatherings make a lot more of a difference

Why doesn’t the person with Coronavirus just not go to the gathering? It sounds like common decency to me

Then let it spread and let's move one.

🤷‍♂️

CDC has vaccine patients and have a reason to keep the fear alive over a cold virus. Coronaviruses are cold viruses. MM arr

Next California will be banning family dinners.

Looks like the liberals ain’t liking the fact we are back in our churches, folks they won’t stop this nonsense until we stand up and say ENOUGH, let’s not forget we are THE PEOPLE! They do not own us! Stand up against the democratic liberal evil communist agenda.

How could this happen?! And right before the election! Quick get joe biden into his basement. No more 3 person rallies!

You guys are helping Trump get more votes.

No one cares anymore. People just want to live their lives rather than constantly cowering in fear. Quit trying to control people.

I've known of 14 people that got COVID. 4 were a symptomatic, 6 just had a light cough, 3 had mild symptoms and 1 hospitalized. It's not that serious. We need to move on with our lives. This virus was sent by China to influence the election

Where have I seen this play out before?

You're basically saying is every single person on this planet needs to stand still for the virus to be wiped forever

What bout the protest though

Live your life people. If you listen to the media you will never leave your house!

When college kids leave their safe, young, healthy, asymptomatic campuses and return home....

You by small gatherings you mean protestors. Gotcha

There’s no coordinated contact tracing in this country. How can the CDCgov tell the spike isn’t from dining out or other social activities?

FakeNewsCNN won't report on AntiFaRiots & BLMRiots. But having small gatherings at the house, yeah that's the problem.

amysurdam You think your friends and family are keeping to safe protocol? I’m sorry, YOU CAN’T. DON’T HANG OUT WITH THEM. It’s a pandemic please exercise the protocols.

Who cares? The director lies anyways. All it takes is a google search to find out a few things about him.

Are you still able to scare people about covid CNN? Most people I talk to aren't scared of it.

Jesus Christ. Stop gathering together! We are in the middle of a pandemic that WOULD have been over if everyone wore masks and avoided gatherings. StayHome WearAMask SocialAtHome ZoomCalls SocialResponsibility

Im allowed to see who the fuck i want suck a dick

This is false.

I don't give a shit.

But I guess rioters and looters are ok with the cdc smh

please just wear a mask i wanna see bts next year

All while trump is holding rallies. Says a lot

MamaBearKingdom A 're'-surgence? America's surgence never ended in the first place.

Okay pero like how they know it’s “small gatherings” though? 🤔 show ya answers ....

you have literally zero cred. The homeless guy at the end of my street selling yesterday’s newspaper has more credibility. And I’m actually not being insulting I’m being serious. CNN is a factory cranking out lies. CNN is at the root of much of our problems. Go away CNN!!!!!

Too bad. People will get sick. And .001% will die, or some incredibly small percentage. Get on with living people.

But not large BLM riot and loot parties. Go to hell CNN. I'll gather with whoever is willing.

“there were only a few of us” doesn’t matter. stay home. social distance. wear a mask.

Does anyone think now that our Politicians, the supposed medical experts, the unlimited of idiot talking heads really know what the hell they are doing! Our leaders (all of them) have so screwed up everything. Governors doing what they want. Everyone has failed us.

99% survival rate, 99% survival rate, 99% survival rate

Basically the CDCgov is tied to Big Pharma and Demorats! CDC don't know a damn thing they just spew shit out like a broken sewer line. If you listen to and believe them everyone who gets the virus dies when it's been proven a very very low percentage die.

Communist News Network.

“Oh your eating Spaghetti? Turns out that spreads COViD so actually your a racist and you don’t do enough for others” this is how I feel right now.

Since most people are wearing masks and the numbers are going up makes one wonder. Why wear masks? How are people that are wearing masks getting infected? Try asking good obvious questions to the 'experts'.

Shocking. Fucking shocking.

I’ve been meeting with friends to go on hikes and meeting with family members. Just be cautious, and wear a mask wash your hands. Get tested regularly, check your temp. None of my family nor my friends have gotten covid. Also kinda hard to stay home when you have to go to work.

Bullllshiiit

Nah its his mum

Of fucking course.

Literally whole world is gathering!! Why American have to be so different from other countries So fussy 😩

Great, just in time for Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Chanucka and New Years Eve. At least Halloween encourages masks.

Lol small gatherings. But the rioting was ok. Lol

I heard you.

What about the protests, riots, the gathering of thousands after the Lakers won...cmon pay attention!!

You got it right.

Who woulda thunk

So what ppl supposed to stop seeing family foh enough already with all this

A little N of Seattle, our county was blessed to avoid the massive 's the Seattle area suffered. 1000s put off much-needed med care. 's jumped every time some moron decided it was a good idea to drive from Seattle for small gatherings. Opening tourism more than quadrupled 's.

Yes well obviously, it’s not the people social distancing and limiting contact spreading the virus lol ....Einstein right there lmao

MORE LIES FakeNews

Should've had a one month lockdown back in March. Essential travel only, mask and physical distancing mandates if you do need to leave. Curbside pickup unless absolutely necessary. Mortarium on rent, loans, bills, etc. for that month. And pay everyone 5k-10k.

No more than two elves..

And people breath air.

All people need to live in isolation forever more. No more life ever for anyone. Might as well end it now

But since COVID cases often don’t amount to much to the young and healthy... most people shouldn’t really worry... 👍🏽🇺🇸

ALL gatherings are a source of Covid 19 spread.

Small gatherings like JoeBiden rallies
