Many have criticized Chicago leaders for allowing the four-day festival, worried it could turn into a super-spreader event as Delta has driven another wave of coronavirus cases around the United States. Maybe it’s even made a lot of younger people get vaccinated in order to come. CHICAGO More than 385,000 attended Lollapalooza in Chicago this weekend, officials announced Monday. “If everyone attending Lollapalooza is vaccinated or has a negative test, that’ll keep the numbers lower,” Murphy said. We tried the carrot approach, now we have to utilize the stick approach.” Holding out hope What this will lead to is mandated vaccinations for employment, school, travel, social events and other public and private venues. “We tried the carrot approach, now we have to utilize the stick approach.” The CDC guidance recommendation was voluntary, and that didn’t work because many of the unvaccinated people cheated by not wearing masks or socially distancing this is what primarily is really driving the infection rates up.” On May 13, 2021, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) loosened its guidelines and recommended that vaccinated persons no longer needed masks indoors or outdoors, whereas the unvaccinated should continue to wear masks and socially distance from others. “Even though vaccines are effective, safe, available and free, they’ve refused.
“This current wave is because, for the first time, a single group of people refused to get vaccinated,” Murphy said. Murphy said the current spike in national COVID cases is due to a lack of vaccinations including younger people who are eligible to receive the vaccines. the recent spike in cases in South Dakota warrants special concern. This is just going to keep being wave after wave until we all get immunity or vaccinated or both.” ‘Voluntary system didn’t work’ Unlike Lollapalooza in Chicago, the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally was the perfect storm for a vaccine-era superspeader event. “We haven’t even gotten to the middle of this pandemic yet. “The organizers have instituted a vaccine requirement or a negative COVID test that is no more than 72 hours old, all this helps, but it’s just not enough when you’re in the middle of a pandemic. Then the ICU admissions increase, and then the death rate goes up. “When the case numbers go up, within two to three weeks, hospitalizations will go up.
“The numbers are going up,” said Murphy, executive director of Northwestern’s Institute for Global Health. Not to mention some people bring their younger kids under 12 who can’t be vaccinated, and some of those parents are not vaccinated themselves.” ‘It’s spinning out of control’ “You have people coming in all over from U.S., and even though the organizers are taking some efforts to mitigate infections, I don’t know how they’re going to enforce mask wearing, social distancing, handwashing.
