TG cracks me up with his BS. He provided links from public health experts. So many of the frat boys like him are big on spreading panic because they think it will help ruin the economy and get, Biden the cellar dweller, elected They're also big on the flat earth belief and the climate change conspiracy. You can identify them by their tin foil hats. It seems you'd be the conspiracy person.

Make no mistake, the media will whip this issue into the biggest frenzy they can. It’s their life blood right now, along with racism. Reporting the numbers of cases, hospitalizations, and deaths is whipping the issue into a frenzy? Reporting that Mexico closed part of their border and the EU closed their borders to people from the USA is whipping the issue into a frenzy? Reporting how to slow the spread or states that impose a quarantine whips things up? Please explain how that creates a frenzy. When Trump closed the border and airline travel from other countries was called every racist name in the book by the libs. Now why don’t Mexico close all the damn border instead of part of it? The virus was already in the USA when Trump banned flights from China, and a number of Americans returning from China and neighboring countries likely also brought in the virus. You'll have to ask Mexico why they have not closed the whole border. Why is reporting facts a "media frenzy"? because all your "facts" are faux news bs perhaps?

You’re very good at twisting my words. The statements were frequently made here that BLM protests are the reason for the rise in COVID cases. There was no supporting evidence supplied to support those statements, and those statements ignored social gatherings. I stated there was no evidence linking the protests to the spike in COVID cases and provided a number of links from public health experts.
Note your link says "could". Of course mass gatherings of unmasked people in close and prolonged contact will spread the virus. Where are those happening? Social gatherings, parties, churches, rallies. Once again, look at the percentage of people wearing masks at BLM protests vs people wearing masks at bars, anti-BLM rallies, and political rallies.
The virus does not recognize political affiliation, and those towns or people who do not take preventative measures will only prolong the problems. Those states which tried to open early pretty much wasted all of the economic pain of March-June. for someone that touts his scientific prowess you sure are a simpleton. fact: a mask only stops about 70% of your exhaled breath, thus anyone within the magic 6' proximity is exposed to your 30%. going on that then I would opine that approximately 10-15% of rioters/blm punks have now spread the virus to each other. since no one has any idea of just who went to the blm riots we will never know for a fact what percentage it really is. given the fact that wearing a mask is only to prevent you from catching spit from someone who coughs or sneezes yet you still inhale 30% (or more) of the outside air unfiltered you have a better chance of catching covid from a large gathering no matter who has one on. it is called common sense, look into buying some cuz you sure don't have any now
