Florida saw the largest 3 day coronavirus cases. NY hospitalization rate doubled the other day. Wrre starting to see the immediate effect of the protests much premature end of the lockdowns.

Corrected that for you. Were there even widespread protests in Florida last week already?

While the protests will also increase the tally, most are still in their incubation period. What we're seeing here is the result of reopening the country way too soon and too fast, and the coronavirus will certainly get back to previous heights again due to this. Compared to the effect of the premature reopening, the protests will probably only have a negligible effect.

I feel like we would have seen this happen sooner since Florida has been opem for almost a month now. And NYC doesn't open til Monday so the protests makes the most sense. 

And yeah I saw on Twitter people protesting last Thursday in Florida.
