Will protests spread Covid? And why is the media suddenly unconcerned/silent about social distancing?

A few days ago the media and politicians were still lecturing America to wear masks and do social distancing when we go outside

Those lectures stopped once the Georg Floyd case happened and the media started covering protests. Suddenly, we heard no more talk about spreading Covid

What happened to the pandemic?

Maybe they can only handle and orchestrate one major crisis at a time?

Perhaps when the riots are over then we’ll go back to the virus Hysteria.

Because if it is contagious in the summertime, then all the better

More cases, more hospitalizations, more I told you so

And the deaths? Who cares? Just casualties who were down for the cause

Two birds, one stone

Media couldn’t stop scolding the kids who went to Lake of the Ozarks, warning they might spread Covid

But no social-distance scolding of Floyd case protesters.

What gives?

Wouldn’t it be terrible </sarc> if all the Freepers, including me, are wrong about this flu hoax and there is a huge resurgence of the ChiCom flu because of the protests. If these rioters start falling over dead in the next several weeks I will gladly admit I was wrong.

“What gives?”

It’s under the “riot exemption” for promoting demonkraps for defeating POTUS. I am sure these wuhan virus people in charge are not really concerned about spreading the disease through rioting ... now churches opening to prayer ... that is a great threat to this public health emergency.

With the unmasked thugs rioting and looting these past few nights, I reckon we will have to wait for a couple of weeks to see if there is a surge in covid cases from the leftist dudes and dudettes who were not practicing social distancing.

If there is no discernible surge in covid cases, then I believe we can safely say covid has ran its course.

Maybe the protesters are taking hydroxychloriquine as a preventive?

Wuhan Flu was a hoax that was falling apart just like everything else they have thrown at the Orange Man Bad. Move to the next scenario till it fails. Corona virus colds happen every late winter and subside as the weather warms up in the spring and the colds shift back to Rhino virus. Wuhan Flu had a limited shelf life.

Protests don't spread Covid. Protest is the vaccine. Protest is the antibody. But you have to take the LVM-Pak: Protest with Looting, Violence and Murder, and so long as you don't actually care about George Floyd, you should be fine.

It looks like the Wuhan lab created the first social justice warrior virus—SJWs are “special” and are immune.

At this point, I can only assume that COVID-19 never even existed, and the whole thing was a false flag, and maybe this is too.

If there's going to be a significant increase in the Chinese Chest Cold, you'll start seeing it in a couple of days, not weeks. The "two weeks incubation" is ignorance. SOME cases take "up to" two weeks or more, but those are the right hand tail of the incubation bell curve. Most incubate in a few days. See This article. Scroll down a bit. The "lazy s" curve (A logistic curve) showing total incubations, from their research, reaches 50% incubation in about five days. Even 20% would be noticeable after a couple of days. Bottom line. If there's going to be an actual "surge", it will start showing up real soon now, since the Biden Rallies have been going on for a couple days so far. I think the Chinese Chest Cold fear mongers are going to come out of this looking like a bunch of monkeys, myself.

The Lame stream media is always interested in what can hurt America and freedom most. "Tree of Liberty, Freepers." " Tree of Liberty." I think its time.
