This will be a good indicator of transmittability. Of course he may have gotten it from one of the 500 hands he shook.
Well at least nobody in Congress caught it that way.
He wasn’t passing out wafers, he was passing out Darwin Awards.
I guar-on-tee you, 500 people will not effectively self quarantine.
What priest shakes hands after distributing Commu to in to an attendee. I have NEVER seen this done.
There’s a traditionalist Catholic guy on public access TV in the Seattle area who claims that someday the Catholic Mass will be outlawed. I’m skeptical, but if it ever happens, it might be done in the name of stopping the spread of some disease.
It’s going to get around, people won’t even know they have it in the early stages and are at the stores, using all sorts of grocery carts, door handles, working in restaurants preparing your food, work in supermarkets putting out the food, produce, working on your cars, phones, sales products. Forget it, it’s going to get around. That is why the flu does.
How many times did he shove his fingers in someone’s mouth?
Since when do priests shake hands after giving communion? Or why I avoid some churches...
The hand shaking as a sign of peace has always seemed problematic, IMHO.
Common sense did not prevail. What is wrong with him?
I am seeing a huge percentage of my fellow Freepers relenting to the hysteria about this awful yet OVERLY hyped virus....24/7 this is all I am seeing printed or talked about . Try and be rational about this as like everything it will pass......
So apparently this spread much faster in Italy than in Japan, because in Italy it is common to greet by kissing both cheeks, which basically guarantees the spread of the virus; while in Japan they don’t even shake hands.
Then the devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down. For it is written:
“‘He will command his angels concerning you,
and they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’”
Jesus answered him, “It is also written: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’”
You DON’T SHAKE HANDS AT HOLY COMMUNKION!! What pathetic reporting!

I’d rather receive communion from this priest than I would Pete Buttigieg...
Why would he shake hands during communion. He obviously knew what he was doing as far as spreading the virus. However, can’t drinking from the same chalice accomplish more damage?

Not too smart to be shaking hands these days. In fact I don’t shake hands that much anyway.
