    This is an excellent point. We would expect cases from the protests to be noticeable sometime next week, the cases today were likely infected some time before the protests started in the UShttps://twitter.com/kyliesparks/status/1270120241897410560 …

        George Floyd got murdered at May 25. Didn't the protests started 1 or 2 days after that? That would be already 14 days. Given that incubation time is on average around 5 days and given the lag until infected go getting tested and getting the results, we should see the effect now.

        AZ is out of ICU capacity. That doesn’t happen in two weeks. Plus not aware of AZ being a hot bed of protests

        A few officers who were on duty at the protests have already tested postitive. But yeah, there was probably a lot of community spread going on during the protests. #COVID__19
