Kristi Noem (R-S.D.) said a Midwest COVID-19 outbreak was not caused by her state\u2019s Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. In an interview on Sunday, Noem said the study conducted which linked the August rally and an outbreak was false information and not based on facts.<\/p>\n<p>She said all attendees were informed about how the coronavirus could affect their health and they were allowed to make decisions for themselves. Noem argued making people stay home and closing businesses would not have made a difference.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FaceTheNation?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@FaceTheNation<\/a> never once asked about South Dakota&#8217;s excellent vaccine distribution.
