De Blasio claims spike in COVID-19 hospitalizations not linked to massive protests
Fox News ^ | June 05 2020 | Marisa Schultz

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio revealed Friday a 75 percent spike in coronavirus hospitalizations since a day earlier but rejected the suggestion that the spread could have been caused by massive protests in the wake of the death of George Floyd.

"I would be surprised if that's what's causing it," de Blasio said Friday of the sustained demonstrations that have broken out in the Big Apple and cities throughout the world. "I think we're much more likely in the next week [or] 10 days to see a manifestation, if there is one."

Still, de Blasio urged all demonstrators to get tested for COVID-19 and warned that protesting is risky during the pandemic.

Maybe the idiot will believe it when/if his daughter gets sick.

If she does not get sick then maybe all the lockdown crap was for naught.

Y’all didn’t get Covid from that!

I’m glad Dr. DeBlasio is on the case!

So - think about this. NYC did NOT open and, in fact, clamped down further and there were tens of thousands protesting.

Which do you think caused the surge if not the protesters? Did the increased lockdowns cause it? Must be!

Elementary Watson...

Clearly it’s linked to white guys sneaking out for bootleg haircuts.

Strangely CNN has not asked Dr. Fauci to comment

But when conservatives were protesting the lockdowns, THAT would cause a spike in corona virus cases.

His daughter is of the age that doesn’t ‘get sick’ with this.

She might have it and not know it.

DeB however...is probably on HCQ prophylactically and has gallons of the Gilead compound in his spare fridge.

I think de Blasio and Pope Francis are brothers of a different mother.

What a shame for looters and the AnteeFags to come down with COVID.

Heard anywhere between two days and 14 days. The weather woman on Fox said they got a call her FIL was feeling ill and 3 hours later got a call he was dead.

Commies stick to their propaganda. The NYC riots began 8 days ago. You bet there has been plenty of time for Covid symptoms to appear.

The good news is, Herd Immunity is coming.

But yes, you can always tell a commie is lying by his lips moving.

NYC is a disaster. NYC Mayor is a clown. NYC is on its way to becoming Detroit, NY.
