Markets Are More Open To COVID-19 Infection Than Church
Since the outbreak of the deadly coronavirus pandemic sometime in December 2019, one known characteristic of the virus according to health experts, is that it passes through droplets from human contacts mostly in crowded places like markets, churches, malls, clubs, etc.
Among these places mentioned, market is seen as the most densely populated human environment because of its characteristic nature.
Churches on the other hand, due to its seemingly organised nature with the possibility of maintaining social distancing, has rather lower chances of people contracting this deadly virus called covid-19.
Let’s not demonize the church because of covid-19 pandemic. It has not lost its position as a place of refuge and strength.
