How many more people will die from Covid due to the riots?

What is the point in this question? People who disagree with BLM politically are going to click the highest number despite having no idea how this raises the R rate. And vice versa for people who agree with the protests. It's a completely pointless survey.

It will be hard to attribute.Most of the protesters are young and much less likely to die if they get sick. Older people they infect are at risk.These secondary effects are hard to untangle from opening effects. Also, I've seen quite a bit of mask wearing and distancing in videos

The cost will be high, but is it really 'due to the riots' or is it due to the systematic racism that caused them to happen?

Many, but less than would normally die due to continued systemic racism. So as long as they are effective they will be a net positive.

hard to say considering those who take it home could infect anyone in their family, work, community and etc (and those infected could do the same).

It can be painted as being due to riots, but the reality they were likely to always happen due to financial instability of the general population during a medical crisis.
