And at least 20 more staff and Magalago frequenters have tested positive.

Wonder if they will change their tune?

Probably not.

Surely he had some symptoms, some indication he was sick, yet he's still carrying on about masks. He had to know better.

It's like watching these "fail" videos. You see somebody jumping off a roof, hitting the ground, and you hope the guy isn't hurt but you gotta say to yourself "What could they have been thinking?"

Rest in Peace, Herman Cain. I hope others will learn from your example, but I doubt many will.
