A New Study says risk of getting Covid-19 at concerts is low

We went an entire Spring and Summer without any live concerts. Virtual concerts can be good but there's nothing like a live concert. A new study in Germany might lead to having live concerts sooner than we thought. Scientists ore- tested 1400 volunteers for Covid-19 and gave them digital location trackers, masks, hand disinfectant and florescent dye in order to collect data on different scenarios. The volunteers then sat through 10 hours of pop music while practicing different levels of social distancing and safety protocols. The results were good news. The risk of spreading Covid-19 at concerts was low to very low. Provided there was good ventilation, limited capacity and safety measures. Some hope for concert lovers.
