When things get bad enough, this is like people getting caught in a stampede, but one driven by tribal conspiracy theories instead of panic. Your risk ultimately becomes a function of the most extreme behavior (i.e. "Coronavirus house parties") of those around you. These localized "infection events" are often the source of larger regional outbreaks.
