First, don’t just read my response, read the comment/quote that I’m responding to. This will give you some context. There's only a few, so it shouldn’t take you that long to go through them.
If you’re still not understanding my point…here’s the bottom line:
Just because majority of new cases and rise of COVID transmission can be attributed to community spread, this doesn't mean that non-resident tourists can't unknowingly bring the virus with them.
When folks here make statements like "...it’s not tourists' fault that the virus is raging out of control" and "We actually do know where many cases are coming from and it's definitely not tourists". it's simply not an accurate statement.
Hope that helps.
I feel like you're saying the same thing...
"majority of new cases and rise of COVID transmission can be attributed to community spread" and
""...it’s not tourists' fault that the virus is raging out of control" and "We actually do know where many cases are coming from and it's definitely not tourists"."
In both cases y'all are agreeing the majority is community spread. Tourists coming and getting sick or injured definitely would add to the strain though, as well as those who are positive. Testing should help with the latter if they decide to go that route, but if they choose to stick with what the CDC recommends then it'd be up to folk to self test before they go.
