1) This crowd at the capitol today is small compared to the number who
had Thanksgiving, Xmas, or New Years with big bunches of people, but
with all cross-traffic, the mingling, no masks, no distance, maybe some
yelling, the surge in Corona among the people who were there and
everyone they meet in the coming 10 or more days will be enormous. And
apparently they came in flights from many different cities. Another
superspreader event, by people who don't understand the American system
and don't understand disease transmission or mathematics either.


2) I don't think the House or Senate has to be in their own chamber to
due their duties tonight. While those places are being swept and
deoderized, there are surely rooms in the House or Senate office
buildings, across the street from the Capitol, connected by tunnels,
where they can meet.
