A Smoking Gun

Well, well, well. My eyes had failed me, until this very minute. Recall from earlier missives, that I pondered the conundrum of all those meat processing plants exploding pretty much at the same time. We know, by now, that the time from initial infection to the geometric expansion of sick folks is about three weeks. So, we can reasonably expect that all those meat processing plants have some factor in common. I speculated that in mid- to late-March, we had the Spring Break Covidiots fan out from Lauderdale to most places east of the Mississippi. Spring Break also happens at Padre Island, Texas, so there's them kids, too.

So, I just fired up the Tectonix map of the Covidiots again, and lo and behold, if you look at the extreme southwest corner of South Dakota (the second state line above the 'United States' graphic), there they are smack dab where the Smithfield plant is. Fire up the CNN map, and you find a large cluster in the vicinity of each 'node' of Spring Breakers.

Spring Break did it. Mammy Yokum has spoken. Now, if any media organization would just do some tracing, looking into where the kids of Papa and Mama meat packer were during Spring Break. Please?
