Spin studio that followed rules triggers a Covid-19 outbreak with 61 cases

> SPINCO exclaimed in frustration, "We took all the measures public health offered, even added a few, and still the pandemic struck us again!'"

People need to realize that all of the measures and mitigations -- all of them -- are political. Social distancing, masks, staying at home, sanitizing, etc. will not protect anyone from getting the virus in an absolute sense. The only thing that would do that is to give everyone in the country an airtight suit and force them at gunpoint to wear it at all times. We all know that's impossible. So what follows is a negotiation between epidemiologists, the government, and the public, about what has the highest probability of moving the needle, what the government is logistically capable of doing, what the public will let them get away with. Scientific evidence may come into play on the epidemiology side of the equation, but it is not in any sense the deciding factor.

I've always hoped that something, anything, would kill SPIN studios. Seems my prayers has been miraculously granted albeit at a high cost for many.

Still, all in all, worth it: SPIN studios are bad loud music blasted out by a-holes in hard-walled rooms with 20 expensive largely unoccupied single-purpose SPINcycles and doors open (so "they can breathe"), polluting the entire gym with their noise (as well as COVID-19 apparently).

Screw 'em and melt down those SPINcycles into something useful, like paperclips.
