I was kind of surprised to see bars had even opened in MI yet. I remember the angry protestors with their guns at the state Capitol screaming about their Dem governor taking away their rights.

Bars certainly do seem to be the source of several superspreader events around the country.

That may be the case. It would make sense. But frankly, I'm fed up with the way this whole thing is covered. There are just too many narratives they want to spin to trust the reporting. Suddenly all the news stories are about the 'bars.' At exactly the time we would expect to see spikes from the protests, riots, and large block parties many had afterward. I wouldn't put it past them to tell the contact tracer they went to a bar when they were really at a protest. Or for someone to tell the contact tracers they were at a protest, when they were really at a Trump rally. And many cities aren't even having the contact tracers ask about protests. It's all just too polarized to have the expectation of good faith reporting...or good faith anything.

The spread from that bar traveled 100 miles and caused another outbreak in the affluent Gross Pointe area. Very good article.

We have seen this over and over, it spreads so rapidly and many owners are being negligent. I didn’t realize they had opened bars. Those protesters back in April must feel very foolish.

You can't possibly know that from afar.

That’s a great standard, do you know if these 85 people went into quarantine or did they infect other family members.

A house party host was symptomatic during the party and got sicker over the weekend, was tested on Monday and didn't share the results with friends until Tuesday night.

They all caught a cold. Whoopdie. MSM is just trying to alarm the TV watching covidiots again with the scary buzzwords. Maybe 85 people did catch a cold from a bar. If nobody dies or ends up in the hospital, is that really newsworthy or are they just trying to scare the depressingly gullible masses with a psyop? I say it’s the latter.

"Eighty of those who tested positive with COVID-19 went to Harper's between June 12 and June 20. Five are "secondary infections," which means they were exposed by someone who went to the bar."

It seems that 80 were tested positive.... we should already know enough about the transmission capabilities of this virus to know that it would be prudent to take precautions against further spread. In fact the additional 5 indicates already a transmission.

Are you saying that someone needs to die in order to be of some concern? that's kinda morbid. Don't see the benefits of notifying the wider public for others that might have not been contacted by tracers but visited that establishment during that time period?
