That's not great, but how many new cases of people that didn't go to a protest.
That article also says that the person was not believed to be infectious at the rally.
This latest person probably was not infectious at the time of the protest, but they could have got infected there. And between the time they got infected and now, they could have infected more people. There may have been non symptomatic people, and the people who got infected might be also non symptomatic; so we may have now dozens of non symptomatic spreaders. Yesterday we had here in Victoria 6 community spread corona cases, and today 18.
We all have to take the risk and interact with others. We need to get our food, get to work, and interact with co-workers. But the protest was not necessary in this very moment.
Luckily, many people wore masks and the newest reports from the USA confirm what I have been saying all along that :
A- masks can greatly reduce spread of COVID infection
B- the reason they were not telling us to get masks was because they wanted all available masks for medical staff.
Quoted was a recent case of 2 hairdressers who came down with COVID19, but wore masks, and none of their 6 co-workers or 140 customers that came through their shop, have tested positive.
So, now we know, and I am very angry that our government does not mandate masks on public transport, planes and in shops.
