      Infections may increase in coming weeks. But attributing them not easy (1) mobility has been increasing. (2) crowds of (masked) ppl in cities (3) protestors have been crammed together in jails, by police kettling & vehicles Takes epidemiological work; not jumping to conclusions⬇️https://twitter.com/trvrb/status/1267988649024471045 …

      "Tear gas is a major irritant to one’s throat, nose, and lungs, the very places the coronavirus attaches in order to start its silent invasion" Tear gas & police tactics of kettling protestors on streets, shoving into buses & jails is dangerous. ht @zeynep https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2020/06/i-cant-breathe-using-tear-gas-during-pandemic/612673/ …pic.twitter.com/71f2bvCvkU

          Tweet # 270 of a 300+ thread documenting police abuses of protesters nationwide. Tear gas that makes ppl cough violently & makes respiratory tract more susceptible to infection, is especially dangerous during pandemic. https://www.propublica.org/article/tear-gas-is-way-more-dangerous-than-police-let-on-especially-during-the-coronavirus-pandemic …https://twitter.com/greg_doucette/status/1268666871458549763 …

          "Here's my very rough guess at what's going on. Given ~20k confirmed cases per day we have ~1.5M currently infected across US (@youyanggu via https://covid19-projections.com ).

          Since January, I've striven to provide as complete an accounting of the #COVID19 pandemic as I can. And so I feel it is my job as a scientist to provide my best estimate of the amount of viral transmission the protests are likely to cause. 2/21

          The way the pandemic has been co-opted in the state response -- internalized bio-warfare -- has shocked me, though it probably shouldn't have surprised me.

          Its shocking. We received thousands of masks as donations from various hospitals and community groups and handed them around to people (and police) at a recent demo.

          Isn't basic intuition that some of the largest protests in US history will have a dramatic effect on case numbers? I'm worried that the country cannot handle the crises of systemic racism, popular legitimacy, and mass disease all going supernova simultaneously
