People posted several links about states with numbers going up. So your "never had your Covid numbers" point is moot.

Also going on in these parts of the country: increasing case counts, increasing numbers of hospitalizations.


Rising cases is a by-product of increased testing.


Not in Arizona.....

OP here, I’m guessing about 20 people - 10 couples. I guess what struck me is that all the photos were indoors and people had their arms around each other and were standing close in the photos - like we used to stand in all photos.

I’m not locked in my house, we’ve seen a few friends and neighbors on porches and such, it was just the indoors and closeness part that struck me.


Reckless, but there will be classrooms with 20+ students at a time in a couple months. DCUM thinks that density is completely safe.


The word "density" has lost all meaning.


“Population density is a measurement of population per unit area, or exceptionally unit volume; it is a quantity of type number density. It is frequently applied to living organisms, most of the time to humans. It is a key geographical term.“

Now you are less ignorant. Isn’t the internet great!


I have never heard anybody refer to the "population" of a classroom. Like, "At 11:30 this morning, the population of the classroom was 26. At 12:15 everyone went to lunch but the teacher, so the population of the classroom declined to 1. Then the teacher went to the office, and the classroom was completely depopulated."

It is a little rich to be haranguing “the rest of the country” for their carelessness when we and other cities had tens of thousands of people jammed packed together for days on end.

Let’s not pretend it is only the “bumpkins” in Arkansas who are ignoring Covid risks.


+1. I watched some of the Floyd funeral. Indoors at the church where some people were maskless and lots of hugging. 1000’s of people.
The start of many of the COVID wildfire in the black community was, wait for it- funerals and churches!!


That was OK, because it was for the "right" cause. Isn't it nice that our liberal masters can tell us which gatherings are OK and which aren't?


Has making things up out of thin air some you can agree with yourself always been a Right-wing "debate" technique, or is it a newer thing?

Plenty of us are not okay with either. But I can only control myself.


Right? All the posters racing in to type what they think is some amazing "gotcha" seem to be missing that OP didn't say protest crowds are fine

https://www.sacbee.com/news/coronavirus/article243376046.html

“We have found as businesses begin to open up, for some people there was a sense that things are OK now, and they began having gatherings in the home and birthday parties,” Kasirye said. “That is most of the exposure. They are multi-generational. They have people with higher risk.

“You have people together for an extended period of time” not observing six-foot social distancing, and often not wearing face coverings,” she said.

The increase in Sacramento, officials said, is attributed to a small cluster of activities, including two large birthday parties held in private homes, one funeral and a church gathering. Church gatherings, with reduced attendance, are now allowed. But parties inside houses are not yet permitted under state and local stay-at-home orders.


But can’t the same be said of large protests?


Those are a risk, but less of one because they are outside.

Inside, long duration, close contact, no masks --->high risk


When you're outside shoulder to shoulder with other people, it's pretty close contact. I went to one and left because of how crowded it was and how few people were wearing masks.

Lol. Can’t find fault with the Floyd example, so you attack the messenger.

My takeaway from COVID-19 is that you cant catch the virus at protests, Home Depot, Wal-Mart, Target and grocery stores. It is highly contagious in mom & pop shops, in small gatherings and churches.

If you like your distance you can keep your distance as I am.


Do you not understand the difference between being indoors and outdoors??? I think we are learning that outdoor transmission is less likely, but large gatherings indoors are risking.

So you believe schools should remain closed but protests are okay?

Crowded protests can easily spread Covid - indoors or out.

At first I saw the photos and gasped but then I realized they are sending smiling photos of them and their friends and they are all having fun. Previously they had all been in their homes alone for three months. I think that is safe. Personally my family is not getting together with anyone in groups indoors or outdoors yet.

I’m curious, OP, what do you think of the hundreds and thousands gathering all over the country for protests? Is that okay because they are outside and some have masks?


Those protests really trigger you. What are you REALLY more worried about spreading rapidly: corona or anti-racism?


If you think these protests spread ANTI-racism, then you are absolutely, positively the dumbest person who has ever posted here.

And the Memorial Day cases are starting to be counted now.

In a couple of weeks it will be the protest cases.

According to the progscum here, only certain protests spread covid19.

Protests by people wanting their lives and freedoms back are deadly disease vectors.

Protests (and riots, and looting) by people supporting BLM are no threat to spreading coronavirus at all.




They’ve actually SAID this. They actually believe this bullsh!t.
