Double Holiday Weekend in Vũng Tàu 2021

In Florida, that would be called a "special, super-spreader event."

It appears that the photo I shared is genuine:

Vacationers shrug off Covid-19 threat, flock to tourist destinations:Huge crowds have been flocking to tourist hotspots in Vietnam during the four-day holiday starting Friday despite the resurgence of Covid-19, and face masks are conspicuous by their absence.

You're correct. Here in Florida it would be incorrectly and maliciously be called that.

Not malicious.  Most people simply don't agree with you.

Just curious, why is "super spreader" a malicious term?

In itself it is not. But in the US it's been used way too often with malicious intent for a political purpose.
Some groups or events, no matter the circumstance were labeled Super Spreader yet others far worse were not labeled that by the media and others for political purpose. And in particular pertaining to Florida. So if it were used intentionally inaccurate it would be being used maliciously in my view.
