At least four organizers of recent protests in South Carolina have tested positive for coronavirus, prompting one of the main organizers to urge others to get tested.

Several protesters at the marches in downtown Columbia — in addition to similar events in Charleston and Greenville — have tested positive for the coronavirus, according to organizer Lawrence Nathaniel.
“We are asking you please go get tested immediately,” Nathaniel said Sunday on Facebook.
Nathaniel’s previous political work includes organizing for the Democrats’ Tom Steyer and Bernie Sanders campaigns according to his Facebook page.
He is now re-thinking protest strategy. His group was set to hold a statue-related rally but now that’s off.
“It’s time that we must step up our game. What are we doing to step up our game? We’re canceling all our protests,” Nathaniel said. That includes an event that was scheduled for next Saturday, dubbed the “Take Down the Statue” protest.
Fascinating. Nathaniel is one better than the 1,000 so-called health care experts who prioritized protesting over public health (and at the same time wanted to shut down other First Amendment-protected activities such as attending church or President Trump’s rally).
Reason notes how difficult health care experts have made the past few months in the name of flattening the coronavirus curve, only to toss all that out when the protests started.
Many people all over the country were prevented from properly mourning lost loved ones because policymakers and health officials limited public funerals to just 10 people.
For months, public health officials urged people to stay inside and avoid gathering in large groups; at their behest, governments closed American businesses, discouraged non-essential travel,

not according to Newsweek who just today posted about how a ‘study’ shows ‘no increase’ in virus victims due to protests
And all this time, I thought BLM cured the Wuhan virus......
Then i would suggest they stop taking Fentanyl, like Floyd did- and remove those nasty masks- then they can hold up another sign that say “We don’t understand how, but now we an breathe”
Why would you even get tested if you have no symptoms or have them nominally?
Can get = will spread
This is just so they can say to Trump see we stopped.
Good. If one can protest, one should be able to do whatever else he/she/it wants to. Just don't go to church!
Again, Whatever else he/she/it wants to do. Just do it and just don't go to church!
TAKE OFF THE MASKS!
how about protesting the protests?
how about protesting govt telling you what speech and protests you can or cannot have?
dont want it, but we need a serious revolution in this country to kick out the socialists and raving lunatic orwellian totalitarian libtards
The sign should have read, “we can’t spell”
The not breathing part comes later.
I don’t wish death on anyone. I don’t wish anyone suffocates on a ventilator with Covid 19, but it would give new meaning to “I can’t breath”.
In other news, we need herd immunity. The faster these protestors spread around Covid 19, the sooner we will achieve herd immunity. Locking us inside is just going to mean it takes years to get herd immunity. Stupid. Our rulers are just stupid.
I read that in NY, the contact tracers are not allowed to ask people if they had attended protests!
What?!!
We gotta be PC and sensitive to even asking questions during a freaking pandemic? That’s like contact tracing for STDs but not asking people if they’d had sex with anyone.
So, they don’t ask if anyone attended protests, therefore they do not have any confirmation any of the new cases of Covid came from people who attended protests. Conclusion, protests didn’t spread it.
What a bunch of BS!!
'Course, the shootings in CHAZZ and other demonicRAT strongholds across the country kind of suggest that, too.
Couldn’t happen to a more deserving trash heap of society.
“(Not) Shocking: It Turns Out that Protest Organizers and Protesters Can Get Coronavirus Too”
And the Lame Street Media continues to blame states opening up for business and ignoring the increase due to the protests.
Hahahaha. So sad... Maybe there IS something to their “I can’t breathe” signs. More popcoirn!
Out of the 20 white Nazi/BLM protesters in Greenville who weren’t run over by that truck, the remainder of the fake justice mob were so overwhelmingly infected by the virus that the Greenville clown mayor ordered everyone entering the city to wear a mask or be fined $25.
You won’t read about this dog and pony show in the national media.
Good! I hope they suffer from it too. Couldn’t happen to a more deserving group.
