Curious. No?
Yea. The media is blaming everything other than "peaceful protests." I suppose burning buildings down and laying on the ground with thousands of other people is an effective way to avoid spreading the virus.

Actually I saw the majority of the protesters wearing masks, although they were not practicing social distancing.

I haven't read about a resurgence of COVID cases due to protesters. or those who attended Trump's OK rally either.

From reports I have seen, it has been the reopening of bars that have caused the COVID cases to spike.

The surge in new cases started a couple of weeks after Memorial Day weekend, and seems most pronounced in states that reopened businesses including bars and restaurants before that holiday. Because of that, many experts believe that the surging numbers of infected younger people in large part reflect the increased transmission of the virus in social situations and in the workplace. Several reports of clusters of infections tied to bars — including in Michigan, Florida, and Arizona — have also surfaced in the last two weeks.

I'm assuming you read about the 4 different hospital administrators in Houston that felt compelled to call BS on hospital overloads in Houston. So basically, junk science pushed as propaganda. Texas Judge calls it like he sees it. Of course, the Devil is in the details. EX: If your 2nd Cousin knew somebody that had it - you are now recorded as having it or something like that. Worth a read, be sure to notice date of publication. He called it early...

Texas DSHS Issues New Guidance for "Probable" COVID-19 Cases

According to guidance provided by the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS), Texas will soon begin implementing a new definition for COVID-19 cases that has the potential to significantly and artificially increase case totals.

Prior to this new guidance, Collin County and Texas have been reporting “confirmed” cases based upon laboratory PCR (polymerase chain reaction) tests which detect SARS-CoV-2 RNA in a clinical specimen.

According to DSHS, Texas will now begin reporting “probable” cases in addition to “confirmed” cases. To qualify as a "probable" COVID-19 case, a person must meet any two of three criteria categories:

• Clinical Criteria
• Epidemiologic Linkage Criteria
• Presumptive Laboratory Evidence Criteria

The problem with this new "probable" definition strategy is in the details....

Let's work with what we actually know and can prove conclusively:
  • Charges filed against Derek Chauvin 5/29/2020
  • COVID incubation period ~14 days
  • Vast majority of protesters are younger people
  • Mass protests, looting, destroying and rioting in a social situation day&night
  • In close proximity, i.e. no social distancing
Notice the big difference in "certainty" and "provability" and "verifiable sources" between the above and below by chance? I highlighted a few "fuzzy" words in your version. Now, tell us again about bars by Buzzfeed.

Buzzfeed?!? You know, the outlet that published the Fake AF Steele Dossier after it had been shopped around to other nearly Fake AF outlets for months. While I assume you remember it, maybe you forgot that Commandant Robert Muller knew nothing..., nothing... about it according to his Congressional testimony.

Also, one might wonder: Where do younger people go to celebrate after a day or night of rioting, looting, destroying others property? Could it be A BAR?!?
