Question about superspreader event
This event at the WH sure seems to be a super-super spreader event.
The reason I say this:
People were tested before attending
Although masks weren't worn, due to the formal nature of the event there was more social distancing than a bar, church and many other social gatherings.
It does seem like a high percentage of positive cases
My daughter got married in August and it was the first time the venue hosted a reception since the pandemic. (I know..I know, but I can't control my kids) The venue really botched up the social distancing. There were no seating arrangements. There was an open buffet, bowling, open bar, loud music, halloween costumes, dancing etc. We wore our masks as much as we could and tried to keep our distance, but the music was very loud etc etc. Thankfully there were no reported CV 19 cases that originated from the event. I put myself in quarantine for 2 weeks afterward...LOL I was thoroughly convinced at least a handful of people were going to come down with CV 19 from the event. There were about 125 people in attendance, including my 88 year old mother in law.
Something that happened at this particular WH event that is different than other events. Maybe the reason there were no cases from my daughter's wedding is that no one who attended the event had CV 19, but the odds were against that since 1% of the population of Travis County already had been diagnosed with CV 19.
Just curious...I know the Trump admin has been playing Russian Roulette with Covid 19. I looks like they finally lost.
I remember when Stephen Miller's wife and Trump's valet had it, we expected it to spread through the WH like wildfire, but it really didn't go very far. Something about this is very different.
