The 10-day Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota in August, which
drew more than 400,000 people, has now been linked to more than
250,000 coronavirus cases, according to a study by the IZA Institute
of Labor Economics.   The event will cost an estimated $12.2 billion
in health-care costs, they wrote.
