mass gatherings: But those numbers could significantly jump within the coming weeks due to widespread mass gatherings, according to Georgia Asian. As thousands of people took to streets in cities across America, government leaders and medical officials are concerned that these events, held for several days after the death of George Floyd, will lead to increases in coronavirus cases. The U.S. has had approximately 1.8 million confirmed cases and 105,000 deaths. Many officials acknowledged the right to protest while simultaneously emphasizing the importance of doing so while taking precautions to prevent the spread of the virus. As the coronavirus has an incubation period of up to 14 days before symptoms appear, the impact of these events upon infection rates won't be known until the next few weeks. Health experts fear that the current disproportionate impact of the virus upon specific racial groups will be further exacerbated by these mass gatherings.
