weren't breaking the rules. Very little information had been given to the public and they were trying to observe the protocols they were aware of. They had no idea that the very act of singing would increase their risk (we know now that the information was out there and being wickedly hoarded by Trump).

I do think it was bad judgement on their part, but I don't think they should be lumped in with later groups who knew a lot more about how it spreads.
