An Ohio churchgoer sparked a coronavirus outbreak that spread to more than 90 other people after he attended a service, Gov. Mike DeWine said.
The 56-year-old man, who was not identified, was infected with the virus when he attended church on June 14, news station WLWT reported.
Following the service, the virus spread like wildfire and 91 people throughout five counties developed symptoms, DeWine said.
[Its] very scary, the Republican governor said during a Tuesday press conference, according to news station WKYC.
DeWine said that hes sending a letter to the states faith leaders to discuss better ways to protect their worshipers.

Anti church propaganda.

BINGO! He went nowhere else (e.g., Grocery store, gas station, Lowes) where he could have caught it?
Breaking news: Gov. Dewine just tested + for the covid!
Only if you’re a Christian conservative.
not once has a covid been traced to the all the riots....interesting....
I agree. If this story is true, name the church AND the “five” counties.They don’t have to name the patient.
Our church has been holding services since the ban was lifted. We must wear masks, and every other row of pews is blocked off and 6 feet between family groups is followed. The choir and the orchestra will not return until masks are no longer needed. Bible study/ Sunday school is a teleconference. Nobody is sick.
Coronavirus PING!
Has anybody ever been known to end up riding a vent from the common cold, even one caused by one of the four milder coronaviruses that haunt this country every winter?
Dang! They’re gonna reach herd immunity first!
My wife is a public health nurse and has done some contract tracing. She always get riled up when these stories come up. Theres absolutely no way to make that assumption, even in my wifes department that is filled with very leftist leadership.
And THAT, my friend, is why Churches should rename themselves Protests or Riots.
Certainly "protesters" like BLM and Antifa or funeral-goers from Saint Cummings' funeral do not spread diseases or anything else but peace, equality, and good will toward men.
My church has thousands of members. We have been meeting for about three months. I have yet to hear of someone who has contracted it from church.
The New York Post is full of nonsense.
Who was not identified...
Yeah, bs...
Our church has thousands of members. We don’t wear masks (except for the staff) and we alternate pews. No one has become infected that I know of.
Yes, it’s a proven fact that the disease can only spread at church.
If he went to a protest no one would have been infected.
Agree!
This is getting ridiculous!
DeWine has turned out to be a weakling, becoming more WOKE with each passing day.
I wouldn't put it past the bad guys to spray the virus into the air conditioning system of churches.
