Coronavirus cluster in South Korea emerges at church after salt water spray infects dozens: health official


A new cluster of coronavirus has emerged at a church in South Korea after members used a saltwater spray -- which they believed prevented the spread of the virus -- but used the same spray bottle on members without properly disinfecting the nozzle, health officials acknowledged Monday. Video images released from the protestant church show a church member sticking the nozzle of the spray bottle into several church members. On Monday, South Korea reported 74 more cases over the past 24 hours, a day after it announced 76 new cases. That's a stark contrast with the more than 900 new cases reported on one day in late February. Chung said South Korea should “never loosen its guard.”The Associated Press contributed to this report.
