Dr. Scott Atlas, a senior fellow at the Hoover Institute explained the recent spikes in U.S. cases can be attributed to crowds of protesters and proximity to the U.S.-Mexico border.
He pointed out that most of the cases in the Southwest are occurring in counties closes to the U.S.-Mexico border. And people screaming, protesting, and sharing megaphones can lead to more cases.
Reported increases in hospitalizations, he noted “is from the reinstatement of regular medical care.”
