WELCOME
WELCOME BACK TO MIDDAY - WE HAVE BEEN GOING THROUGH A LOT LATELY AND WITH THE
PROTESTS GOING ON, YOU SEE
CROWDS. BUT A LOT OF PEOPLE SEEM
TO BE FORGETTING THAT COVID-19
IS STILL OUT THERE.
JOINING US TODAY WE HAVE ABC'S
CHIEF MEDICAL CORRESPONDENT JEN ASHTON. GOOD
MORNING!
MORNING!
MORNING! WHERE ARE WE RIGHT NOW WITH
COVID 19? ALL THE PROTESTS - WE SEE POLICE AND EVERYDAY PEOPLE
NOT WEARING MASKS - WHAT SHOULD
PEOPLE KEEP IN MIND IF THEY ARE
GOING TO THESE PROTESTS?
WHAT ADVICE DO YOU HAVE FOR
PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN OUT
PROTESTING - OUR CITY LEADERS
ARE ASKING PEOPLE TO BE TESTED -
ISN'T IT TRUE THAT YOU CAN TEST
NEGATIVE ONE TIME AND THEN
POSITIVE HOURS LATER - IS THAT
NECESSARY?
IF WE WERE TO SEE A SPIKE HOW
LONG WOULD THAT TAKE?
