Of course it couldn't be the riots

Err, I mean...the entirely justified protests of the death of a criminal that nearly no one knew about until he died....

So some authorities are admitting that it wasn't, at least not entirely, the "reopening" of the service sector (bars and restaurants and stores and such) nor was it likely the Trump rallies that began the resurgence of the WuFlu....But that it was, indeed, at least mostly, fueled by the George Floyd riots protests. 

I doubt if the riots are the entire reason for the uptick (and that is all it really is, an uptick) in cases, but having several thousand people in a small area, rubbing shoulders and shouting (and breathing those disease laden droplets) is a very likely vector for transmission of nearly any disease.
