    By the end of GSMNP, the health hazard is much less of a concern anyway, correct?
    Crowds are thinned/spread out significantly by then.
    Actually norovirus tends to break out north of the gsmnp.Like Erwin.
    Maybe its warmer condition, maybe people become less hygenic after a month.

    Increasing capacity on south end...does nothing for BSP, which is approaching limit.

    Getting people to spread out best addresses this. Which is why ATC has pursued present strategy. If they dont spread out, they will be forced at some point. So they should do the right thing for those that follow.
