bumping for the day crow, this is a department of health alert, and I think anyone exposed must get the vaccine within 14 days so spread the word

As a Catholic, I have to say I think it's very outdated to be handling food to give out communion wafers without gloves on. And I am not sure if they still offer wine, but that ALSO should be a thing of the past with all the knowledge we have today about illness and disease, etc. JMO

I am protestant and this is what we have also. Makes sense to me.

I always thought you should get communion first...then do the sign of peace later on

I hate shaking random peoples hands and then having the communion in my hand after!

I know I can have the communion put in my mouth, but that skeeves me too.

I believe the person giving out the communion wafer was the one that had Hep A, so them putting it in your mouth would have been just as bad if not worse. That is extremely skeevy to me too, I would never do that.
