An Epic Super Spreader Event: The Capitol Riots and Insurrection

 Likely around 25% of those attending the riots and breaking into the capitol can expect to get Covid from this experience, especially because most did not wear masks to begin with.

So it is likely that around 25% of them took Covid back home with them to their friends and families many of whom will die because they attended this event.

If the numbers are correct that around 30,000 Americans (and foreign agitators from places like Russia) attended this event. then we could expect around 7500 people of this event getting covid and taking it home with them to their families and friends and loved ones. So, this is an epic super spreader event that makes the Rose Garden event where Trump almost died from coronavirus as well as his wife and child mild in comparison to this event.

Unfortunately, this likely applies to the Capitol police and National Guard attending this super spreader event as well. However, most of law enforcement were better protected and wearing masks and face shields so likely less of them will become infected too.
