As Cullman, AL prepares for Trump rally, city declares COVID state of emergency

https://www.al.com/news/2021/08/as-cullman-prepares-for-trump-rally-city-declares-covid-state-of-emergency.html

With Cullman Regional experiencing overcrowding due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the city of Cullman will be providing more first responders to this weekend’s Alabama GOP rally.

The Cullman City Council passed a resolution during a special called meeting Thursday morning to declare a State of Emergency due to threat that COVID-19 continues to pose to the city’s residents.

The declaration of the State of Emergency allowed the city to provide the additional personnel and equipment for this weekend’s political rally after it was requested by Cullman Regional.

The Alabama Republican Party is hosting former President Donald Trump and other Republican speakers at the York Farms property on Saturday.

I'd say that Cullman is too on the nose of a name for a rally site. Are we all stuck in a really poorly written dystopian novel?
