I think it's because of the assumption that the Liverpool-Atletico game was a big spreader event.james2001 wrote: ↑Fri 26 Jun, 2020 14.08 The Spanish Flu had a second wave that was deadlier than the first, so people are insisting that means it's got to be the same this time.

Most people don't even know what "second wave" means, things like the meat packing outbreak in Germany and the rise in cases in the US are being called a "second wave" even though neither are.
I don't think the media publishing misleading beach photos, taken from a distance and heavily zoomed in to make them look a lot more crowded than they actually were, helps these doomsday second wave predictions though.
So obviously crowds outside Anfield also equals a spread in their mind.
