Hopefully the lack of the sacrilegious mockery of the Holy Sacrifice of Calvary will speed the stopping of the pandemic. The whole world should do the same.

I heard a good valid reason. The Bishops are afraid of the liability and getting sued because
someone at Mass comes down with COVID-19 because of an another person near them was coughing
and sneezing. All they need is a Doctor say the illness is coronavirus related,
Even if the person recovers the church still can be sued and into millions of dollars. There are lawyers
looking for cases to enrich themselves. And the judges most likely go along with it because they also
get a piece of the pie.

You do know they are still celebrating it right? They're still saying it and distributing communion and hearing confessions and anointing? Nothing has changed essentially for them except it's going on behind closed doors with it on Facebook and YouTube and streaming so probably more people are seeing it than when only the few showed up before the shutdown.

I been trying to find if Catholic were was allowed to have Mass in Public during the 1918-1919 influenza.
At that time being a Catholic was a persecuted minority and the rise of the KKK in the 1920's were an anti
Catholic movement.

The best I could find is from the Chicago Sun Times.  

From the article:

But the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago instructed pastors to add ushers to spot people who sneezed or coughed and ask them to leave the mass.



If there was banning of Mass during the influenza it was done by city by city such as Philadelphia in which
the pastors complied.



A must read article:
