So why is it the states that have taken the strictest measures of lockdown now have the worst outbreaks? Let's examine. Obviously these states have very large populations with many major metro areas. Naturally this many people living in close proximity to each other is a major contributing factor. Then we have the piss poor leadership of the wanwa be Kings of these states ranging from their broad brush approach to their own double standards. This creates fatigue and frustration among the general population so people begin to do as they please. All of this plays a role, but is not the primary cause. What's that you ask? Here it is. The wanna be Kings have removed the opportunity for people to socialize in a safe way. These tyrannical few have closed down all places where people gather, even when restrictions are in place and followed, even though there is conclusive evidence that these gathering places are not where the virus is spreading. Where is is spreading? Private gatherings. You take away the opportunity for people to socialize in public it should come as no surprise they will do it in a more private setting. Root cause of the increased spread comes to the fucking morons running these states and cities enforcing idiotic regulations which are in direct opposition to...wait for it, the science.
