Sturgis Motorcycle Rally Linked to as Many as 250,000 Covid Cases



They said no one at Sturgis was wearing a mask. That's just not true....

Another garbage scare article from a left source (Bloomberg).

Sturgis was 7-14 Aug (ending exactly four weeks ago). While the time from initial infection to onset of either symptom or detectability varies, it's usually within two weeks. So, the US should've started seeing these extra 250,000 cases (in addition to the cases happening throughout the rest of the US) around 21 Aug. In reality, daily cases have been steadily falling since then. If you were to take these supposed 250,000 extra cases and spread them out equally over the 20 days since Aug 21, you have an extra 12,500 daily cases, none of which have shown up.

Note the video shows absolutely no source or support for how they got the 250,000 number...just clips of bikers walking/riding around with no masks.

Typical lame stream media where journalism is dead. This story is total BS.

https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/sturgis-motorcycle-rally-covid/

It was cited from one white paper that was not peer reviewed that had some idiotic "model" stating "what could happen" with a bunch of IF's. Total BS. But let's not let that stop the lame stream media from running with it as "fact". In reality, they have contact traced 250 cases to Sturgis and one death. But the left doesn't want to hear that because "no masks no masks", yet the peaceful protestors didn't wear masks and that was okay.

So, students at Sparty have been asked to self-quarantine after an "outbreak" of 342 cases, while having a total enrollment of almost 50,000 students...that's 1-in-146 students or an infection rate of just under 0.7%.
