53 people infected as a result of Millinocket wedding and reception
An Aug. 7 wedding and reception in Millinocket that led to a coronavirus outbreak is now linked to 53 cases of the virus along with one previously reported death, the state said Saturday.
Investigators from the Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention said they have now identified secondary and tertiary transmission of the virus stemming from the wedding and reception, meaning people are infected who did not attend but came into contact with attendees.
The 53 reported cases reflects an increase of 16 since Friday, when CDC officials reported 37 cases associated with the wedding. The state reported the death of one woman who had been admitted to a hospital for treatment in connection with the outbreak.
Currently, 41 confirmed and 12 probable cases are included in the outbreak, in individuals ranging from 4 to 98 years old.
For some reason, I think we will be seeing more cases as a result of the Sturgis rally. This one wedding in Maine, with 65 attending, has now spread to people who weren't at the wedding or reception; the one death so far was a person who wasn't in attendance.

People assume the risk. Choice is theirs and theirs alone to make.
So, you are saying that it is YOUR choice to become infected and then go out and infect others - because you think wearing a mask, social distancing, frequent hand washing are all just the beginning of some communist takeover of a free America. That Bill Gates will have microchips injected into every American with his supposed vaccine when it's actually just the first step on mind-control of the un-knowing.
You are free to assume whatever you want. How was the cake at this wedding? With only 50 people I bet the slices were a lot thicker than at most weddings.
Little wonder your replies are so insipid, you obviously refuse to read anything that contradicts what Trump and QAnon are telling you. Here in bold letters from the OP

This is the barely coherent and grammatically inept speech of a man who desperately wants to be able to claim that he "cured coronavirus."
That's it, in a nutshell. When we do get a handle on this crisis, he wants to be able to pull out footage and declare "I called it! I said use this! I said try this! I told them to do this, it was my idea!" He's just doing it with lots of stupid stuff because he doesnt want to miss an opportunity. He's afraid 'the big one' will be mentioned and he wont get credit for it.
It's all about declaring himself the savior of the cv crisis and we'll hear all about it, esp in his campaign. (Which is basically each of his press briefings these days) --- Lursa

And those of us healthy enough to survive COVID-19 could still spread it to someone who is not, without knowing it. We are all potential victims. We are all potential killers. That’s how insidious this disease is.

Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act - Wikipedia
Hospitals have three obligations under EMTALA:
Individuals requesting emergency care, or those for whom a representative has made a request if the patient is unable to do so, must receive a medical screening examination (MSE) to determine whether an emergency medical condition (EMC) exists. The participating hospital cannot delay examination and treatment to inquire about methods of payment or insurance coverage, or a patient's citizenship or legal status. ....

You're advocating for a right compatible with yelling "fire" in a crowded theater.
This is law. You're holding hostage those obligated to comply with it. You have not right to do that.
Laws requiring seatbelt use by vehicle passengers, followed or not, have no effect on the health or lives of doctors, nurses,
and other healthcare personnel, or on high risk medical status members of the public, yet seatbelt laws endure, are enforced,
save lives.
You present with depraved indifference. I suggest you ask yourself why.

Apology offered, in advance, in consideration of the unlikely possibility you were posting sarcastically.
How many were infected by the Floyd rallies/protests/riots? Surely as you are so keenly interested in public health and the dangers of public, outdoors gatherings, you must have some statistics for us.
TIA
It would be nice if everyone on here would come together to condemn the BLM two month superspreader event.

Laws would never change if people "have not right to" advocate against them, but the first amendment is the law that grants me the right you claim I do not have.
And no I was not being sarcastic. I assume you were with your yelling fire in a theater thing though because that one makes no sense whatsoever.

Depraved Indifference Law and Legal Definition | USLegal, Inc.
To constitute depraved indifference, the defendant's conduct must be 'so wanton, so deficient in a moral sense of concern, so lacking in regard for the life or lives of others, and so blameworthy as to warrant the same criminal liability as that which the law imposes upon a person who intentionally causes a crime. Depraved indifference focuses on the risk created by the defendant’s conduct, not the injuries actually resulting...
