Offering a preview of what's likely coming down the pipe over the next few weeks, a local TV station just reported that a member of the Minnesota National Guard who was deployed to clash with rioters and looters over the weekend has tested positive for COVID-19 - likely the first of many.

Several others are reportedly exhibiting symptoms (remember, Floyd was killed 8 days ago and in Minneapolis, demonstrations have been ongoing since the day after his death).

Given that protests and marches, like the demonstration in Madrid commemorating International Women's Day, have already been blamed for helping to spread the virus earlier during the pandemic, health experts are worried that a second wave of COVID-19 infections could be sparked by the mass gatherings, ABC News reports.

A Minnesota National Guardsman tested positive for COVID-19. Another COVID-19 wave could be coming.

ONE GUY tested positive for the 'rona, eh?

I'll bet a few of those 7,000 Guardsmen have the flu, too. And yet, strangely enough, the media hasn't blown a gasket about that -- not to say they're even interested.

This Covid thing has been blown WAAAAAY out of proportion.  :panic:

They kept saying social distance and lockdown. Look what happens now.

If these protesters cause a spike in positive cases or  a "2nd wave", mainstream America is not going to go into house arrest for another 2 1/2 months.
