My niece posted the following which I think is very good info:

POINT OF INFORMATION: So. I see a lot of people arguing about why there is a spike in COVID-19 and linking it to the protests or Memorial day weekend. The answer is they both are responsible.
The estimated mean incubation time is 5 days, not 14. The 14 day number comes from the estimation that at 14 days, 99% of people who get COVID and develop symptoms, will develop symptoms within that 14 day period, which is why we ask people to self-quarantine for 14 days.

This post is not about making a stance, just sharing accurate information. Stay safe, wear masks.

TOPEKA, Kan. — Kansas on Wednesday saw its largest jump in coronavirus cases in more than six weeks, an increase of more than 500 cases in two days.

The state health department reported the spike two days after Gov. Laura Kelly urged local officials to postpone lifting their last restrictions on businesses and public activities for another two weeks, recommending that they still limit public gatherings to 45 people.

The Democratic governor ended statewide restrictions May 26, leaving decisions about the rules to the state’s 105 counties, after weeks of complaints from the Republican-controlled Legislature that she was moving too slowly to reopen the state’s economy.

Dr. Lee Norman, the state health department’s top administrator, expressed concern about the latest increase.

TOPEKA, Kan. — Gov. Laura Kelly has ordered that every person in Kansas must wear a mask in public spaces starting July 3.

The order includes not only indoor public spaces, but also outdoor public spaces where six feet of social distancing cannot be maintained.

Kelly said more specific guidance will be released Thursday.

The news comes after the state added more than 900 cases of COVID-19 since Friday. The order will go into effect just before what’s expected to be a busy Fourth of July holiday weekend.

For residents and visitors in Wyandotte and Douglas counties, this won’t be much of a change.

Both these counties have already announced mask mandates. Wyandotte County’s order is set to begin on June 30, and Douglas County’s will begin July 1.

Masks will be required throughout all of Kansas in public, Gov. Kelly orders
