To Allegheny County officials and the county Health Department: You claim the recent spike in covid-19 cases among young people is caused by travel to other states (“Allegheny County health officials warn of coronavirus spread in younger people,” June 24, TribLIVE). If you believe that, I think you are either naive or just plain lying.
I think the majority of these cases came from the recent demonstrations and riots. The time frame is too perfect to be anything else. If you think these young people are going to be truthful to you about what they did, then you need a reality check. I’m guessing these people were told by their leaders to lie or their demonstrations would be shut down.
Do you think these people are right and all police officers and white people who do not agree with or bow down to them are racist? Did you try to verify their stories, or just shut down restaurants and bars?
