The decision of the Coptic Orthodox Church to suspend all its services and holy message in Alexandria and Cairo was indeed hard and important at the same time.
This is the second time to take this decision in the year 2020 and it comes to prevent the spread of covid-19 and to save as many lives as possible.
5 priests have already died this month to raise the total number of priests killed by the new Coronavirus to 30 since the start of the pandemic.
I think the decision is very wise though it was very hard to be taken during the holy month of Koiak when the Coptic people are used to spend hours in the church to attend prayers and praises. Yet, it should save many lives before it s too late.
