It did though? The migration worker did result in a momentary spike in their states when they finally reached their homes, especially after those special trains. Just the variant wasn't as deadly. I am not sure what your point is.

I am not sure how "the infection the rate of spread is much lower in Punjab and Haryana" is the literally the same as "It's the same as rest of the country, just not as high as the states where election rallies and religious gathering acted as a bigger catalyst". To me that reads like saying the rate of infection is much lower than the country average.

Did Maharashtra had a Khumb Mela? Or an election rally? There is a reason they are being called super spreader, not super incubator. I think all of these replies are somehow missing my point. I am not saying that this one incident is responsible for our current state, it is the government. However, I don't think somehow excluding a mass gathering like the farmer's protest from the list of superspreader's is doing any good, it will just convince some people that the gathering for their cause is somehow invincible, as you right said the attitude has been for a majority of Indians.

Any evidence of that? From my anecdotal experience, each and every place in my town where such public viewing used to be organized was cancelled. I would believe that to be the case throughout the country.

Valid question that needs to be asked. Hopefully, this will wake up people from their populist fever dream.

My point is not that farmer protests should be blamed. The blame and responsibility of this surge clearly lies with the government and ruling party celebrating `victory` pre-maturely. My point is that we should not propagate a wrong message that somehow the protests were immune from being a super spreader, making people think it is alright to continue being part of a mass gathering, whatever the cause.

In trying to debunk one BJP propaganda, you are spreading another. The protest was not only by the "rich" farmers of Punjab and Haryana protecting their interests, there were protests joining from all neighboring states like Rajasthan, UP, etc., with demonstrating being organized country wide. The rate of spread is not lower in Punjab or Haryana. It's the same as rest of the country, just not as high as the states where election rallies and religious gathering acted as a bigger catalyst.

IPL has 0 attendance, hosted in bubbles. How are they spreading it?

They had a rotation policy. They clearly say it in all their interviews, how they are maintaining constant presence in the protests by rotating members every 4 - 7 days. See interviews on channels like Youtube channels like ScoopWhoop Unscripted, that tried to bring the farmer's point of view to the forefront. Let's not kid ourselves, the virus doesn't discriminate based on whether the gathering is righteous or not. Each and every gathering is a super spreader, be it a protest, election rally or a religious gathering.

That was pretty informational. Thanks for the detailed explanation. Sounds really cool.

So I am still confused with the connectors and connections bit. Is it zapier but you can write a python script to automate a task? Or its more like a platform that manages user data and other services can use it as a store which executes a particular script when the state of the store changes? Maybe a better question would be who are the target customers for this?

Got it, thanks. Is there any way of transforming old data? Lets say, I want to add a new platform to just store data about clicks, but some of these events stored thru Rudder doesn't have the element id, is there any way I can give these events a default element id before sending them off to the new platform?

Oh interesting. So, how do you figure out where to send which data? Like say, I want to track an event on Google Analytics where I want to see if a new user is being redirected to my site from another site based on the Referer header(no idea if this is a valid use case for GA, its just something I have implemented for one of my projects), how would rudder figure out where to send that data? Does the User have to give a list of events that they want to be sent to GA? Or do I have to specify that I want an event to be sent to GA every time I call Rudder api?

Bit of a novice question, but what is the point of a tool like this or Segment? I have a vague idea that they help with gathering your analytics but I am not entirely sure how. Is it like Google Tag Manager that you can use to control multiple analytics script(edit: this is a wrong comparison, I guess it is like Map function where you send all your analytics data and then it splits and send it to all relevant services where you want the data to be displayed)? Sorry for an off-topic and noob question.
