Although some experts believe this is the last Covid-19 surge we will have to deal with, in the near term, the Covid-19 virus will make decisions for us on whether we need to lock-down certain aspects of American society. Dr. Sanjay Gupta maintains that not all activities need to be locked down because the vast majority of Covid-19 infections occur in only five places.

Five Places Where Most Covid-19 Transmission Occurs

• Restaurants
• Bars
• Churches
• Cafes
• Hotels

While these places heighten your risk to Covid-19 infection, Dr. Sanjay Gupta said these risks can be substantially mitigated if people where mask and practice social distancing.
