Health official would rather speculate and cast blame than cite real data.
Also the DNC Media: "The massive turnout for the Trump rally in Tulsa caused a YUGE spike in coronavirus cases"
These Media liars are YUGELY entertaining...
So of these cases, which were from those who attended the rally, and those which were denied entrance by the swarms of “protesters” at the gate, and which from among the surge of “protesters”?
Orderly passage would have much reduced the “in your face” time which is the main precursor to the spread of COVID-19 Wuhan virus.
A spike in a meaningless statistic. Soon there will be contact tracing of people with no symptoms, and the entire city will be end up quarantined.
According to the AP, the county has reported more than 1,300 confirmed cases of the virus in the 11 days since the rally drew about 6,200 people to the BOK Center in Tulsa, including a record 259 cases on June 23, just three days after the rally. So they are saying that a voluntary exposure, that showed symptoms in less than 48 hours, enough to need testing, and the results being tabulated in less than that time frame, when symptoms can appear as much as 14 days after exposure, was caused by Trump?
A test alone, can be accomplished in a set up run, in 24 hours. But it normally takes about 3 to 4 days for results. Additionally, most people are not tested normally without symptoms as they aren’t sick. According to the WHO, the incubation period for COVID-19, which is the time between exposure to the virus (becoming infected) and symptom onset, is on average 5-6 days, however can be up to 14 days. The results they use happened 3 days after the rally.
So, without symptoms, all these people went in for testing...why? And how many can be actually traced just to the rally? This is a full blown hit piece that has no consistency to it. It is a political attack, not a medical observation.
Cover-19 deaths in Oklahoma have been minimal, appear to have peaked, and do not (at least yet) have much of a “second wave” predicted. In the recent past, they’ve been about 2 per day, and (if the source below is reliable) have pretty much leveled off at that number.
Other WuFlu consequences can be serious in some cases, but the major concern all along for most people has been morbidity - and if morbidity stays at the levels predicted, it’s likely the rally was largely a non-factor. That data is updated almost daily at the site below - if will be easy to check to see what it is over the next couple of weeks.

“Likely contributed” simply translates to “he/she has no scientific proof whatsoever.”
But none of the Trump ralliers came down with COVID.
I would buy a beef tongue from the store, slit it, put his name on a piece of paper, put that in the slit, with some coriander, and 3 iron nails through it, then bury the tongue.
But not the BLM riots in other States.
Of course they do. Precious little girls.
And you know this how?
