FL Mayor on COVID Increase: 'We Had a Number of Demonstrations' - We Trace Spike Back to Memorial Day Weekend

On Friday's "MSNBC Live," Orange County, FL Mayor Jerry Demings (D) stated that the demonstrations over the past month are partially to blame for the recent increases in coronavirus cases that the area has seen. Demings also said that the spike in cases can be traced back to Memorial Day weekend, when businesses reopened for the first time, and people going to bars in the area was also a factor in the increase in cases.
