Nice reading, Tom.
And makes me feel I want to go there next time.

But what about Covid spreading after the rally? Anyone heard how it´s going in Croatia?

I already answered in the post above yours. No problems at all, kudos to the organizers for letting people enjoy the rally. I hope that FIA will have that in mind when analyzing the event.

There is very low risk outside on the fresh air. I haven't heard about a single confirmed case here in CZ where someone would get infected outside. Basically everyone gets infected indoors or in a car.

Studies done in the UK stated that 1 in 1000 infections happens outdoors.

So, yeah. Most of the bullshit measures they have invented globally is nothing more than that, bullshit.

Yes, there's quite a low chance to get or spread the virus outdoors..
but cmon, LOL.. seeing all these hundreds of asses and cheeks together isn't ,,outside n' fresh air'' anymore..

Okay, rules are different everywhere in the world and hopefully there will be no big spread.. but seeing all these people together just seems so wrong at the moment (even thinking sensible and not being ,,overthinking flat-earther''..)

Well, for me it seems wrong to forbid people from moving around freely for more than a year (never happened in Croatia). There's no rise in cases in Croatia, people are happy, rally was excellent, win-win situation. Like, watching previous rallies with no people seemed right?

I'm sure we'll have the same situation in all rallies u til the end of the season. I hope that other organizers will follow Croatia's example.

too early to say it was safe. need at least 2 weeks to see the stats. hope for the best of course, but wait at least until this week end to say it is a model to export.

I read somewhere that reason for current massive spreading in India was big religious event, some sort of traditional thing... some weeks ago.

However I agree as hobby epidimolog, spreading outside must be quite minimal. Though in Sweden no spectators allowed on rallies... Ridicolous, but I believe also it´s activistrelated from authoritites...
