I won't pretend to know.
But I do know one thing.
Thousands of attendees will return home from the event infected.
They'll in turn infect others, who'll swamp the hospitals and deny beds to injury victims and the chronically ill.
And some of those infected will surely die.
All in the name of hope.
Hope, they say, is not a strategy.
Neither is killing your customers.
