Coronavirus has affected at least 91 people in Ohio as only a 56-year-old man with COVID-19 attended the church service.

According to the details, governor of Ohio, Mike DeWine posted a graphic to his Facebook page on Wednesday detailing how the coronavirus spread over a three-week period from the date of the church service on 14th June to 4th July, 2020.

He wrote on social networking site, Facebook, “All it takes is one person to cause tremendous #COVID19 spread. This case study stems from an Ohio church, but it can happen anywhere. I continue to encourage everyone to wear masks and social distance whenever you gather – including at worship services.”

The governor also said, “We have been very careful throughout this pandemic to exempt religious services from any regulations.”

“The only exception to that is that we are now asking people who attend church to wear a mask,” he further said.

It is to be noted that the man’s wife, a son and a daughter also got sick.
