The cumulative number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the United States has exceeded 2.09 million.

On the evening of June 12, local time, US President Trump announced under pressure that he would postpone the campaign rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma until the 20th. However, he also said that more than 200,000 people have applied to participate in the rally.

Dr. Ashish Jha, director of the Harvard Institute of Global Health, said that the upcoming Trump rally "is a very dangerous move for those involved in the event and those who may know them. "

Trump's rallies do indeed usually attract thousands of supporters. They usually line up, stand outside for a few hours, and then walk through the airport-style security system, sitting together side by side or standing side by side. The assembly is usually noisy, and the participants inevitably speak or argue.

Many participants are older, which puts them at a higher risk of serious complications from the new crown. It is not uncommon for several people in the crowd to require medical care when the temperature rises.

The rally also usually attracts supporters from surrounding towns and states. Ashish Jha said that Trump supporters from neighboring cities and states can take the virus home.

Health expert Dr. Bruce Dart pointed out that as more people gather for a longer time, the risk of spreading the virus increases.
