If you have time to protest, you have time to get tested for COVID. The facts are mass gatherings increase speed of transmission and exponentially increase your chance of being infected. If you are infected you put all those you are protesting with at risk of getting infected. You are putting the health and safety of your friends and family at risk if you don't get tested.

This is such an important cause, but we cannot just throw science out the window. If you aren't getting tested you are just as reckless as the same people we criticized weeks ago for protesting a less just cause and for flocking to parks and beaches.

I've thankfully seen tons of people with face coverings, but even these do not prevent anywhere close to 100% of spread.

Go protest, go fight for what is right, but please remember there are two wars being waged in our country right now.
