Daytona 500 Mega-Spreader Event

With more than 30,000 in attendance, it was the largest event since before the first lockdown. No social-distancing, very few masks witnessed (Florida has no mask-mandate thanks to dumbass governor). Worst part, Florida has the largest presence of the wildly more contagious and deadlier U.K. variant of all the states.

The states are like a box of chocolates...

Place seats 101,000 so this is only 30%. But, still.
At a race, one cannot even talk without yelling most of the race.
Yelling & contagious diseases are a bad pairing.
