There is a 2005 Sermon, where maxine talked about this time. She said, "it's the Christian's who are really gonna get it."

A priest in Washington, D.C., who reportedly gave communion and shook hands with more than 500 people at a church has tested positive for the novel coronavirus. Washington officials are calling on hundreds of worshippers who attended the Christ Church in Georgetown to self-quarantine for 14 days due to their contact with Rev. Timothy Cole on several dates, The Washington Post reported.
The Episcopal church reportedly closed on Sunday for the first time since the 1800s. “That is when our case was symptomatic, so anybody who was potentially exposed during that time, out of caution and best practices for disease control, that’s the recommendation,” said Anjali Talwalkar, a top official at the D.C. Health Department. Cole, who is reportedly in stable condition in a D.C. hospital, started showing symptoms in late February and participated in church services on March 1 with 550 worshippers.

Italy may have been put in virtual lockdown—but it seems that doesn’t apply to everyone. Pope Francis has urged Catholic priests in Italy to “have the courage to go out and go to the sick... accompanying health workers and volunteers, in this work they are doing,” as the novel coronavirus grips the country. On Monday, Italy extended its emergency coronavirus measures, including travel restrictions and a ban on public gatherings, to the entire country.
A strict 6 p.m. nationwide curfew has also been introduced. Pope Francis, whose daily morning Mass is now being livestreamed from an empty chapel, urged devout Catholics who have tested positive for the virus to stay home if they are not already hospitalized. Churches are open for private prayer, but all weddings, funerals, and Masses of any kind are prohibited until the start of next month.
