Church news update: At least 70 people infected with coronavirus linked to a single church in California.



A large and influential Russian language church near Sacramento, California, is denying it is at the center of a novel coronavirus outbreak.

In an interview with a Sacramento television station on Thursday, Sacramento County Department of Health Services director Dr. Peter Beilenson confirmed at least 70 people at the Bethany Slavic Missionary Church were infected with Covid-19.



He said he named the church "not to cast aspersions on anybody but to really hammer home the importance of not congregating, not only in church but also in prayer gatherings in people's homes." It is one of the largest outbreak clusters of the virus in the US

In an archived version of last Sunday's online service, a pastor announced at least three members of the church were infected with Covid-19
