The spike in new CCP virus cases in Los Angeles County is probably linked to massive protests that have taken place in recent weeks, a top health official said.
“What we haven’t really been able to do, because we have such a high volume of cases coming in, is really pinpoint whether or not the exact source of an exposure was a protest,” Barbara Ferrer, the director of the county’s Department of Public Health, said at a press briefing Monday.
“I do want to say that it’s highly likely, given the increased numbers that we’re seeing, that some of this is, in fact, people who may have been in a crowded situation at one of the protests where there was spread,” she added.
Gatherings of nearly any size were prohibited in Los Angeles and in many parts of the country starting in March as authorities imposed harsh measures to try to slow the spread of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, which causes a disease called COVID-19.
But the death of George Floyd, a black man, in police custody in Minneapolis on Memorial Day sparked nationwide protests and riots and authorities in many cities stopped enforcing social distancing mandates.

My God we cannot bow to these anti American nuts. Dr. doom and gloom Fauci is at it again but he is lying. We know that more testing will bring more cases FEW if any are dying and less are being hospitalized.
WE cannot live in fear or that is not living.
EVERY DEM GOV HAS TO GO.
