35 Contracted Coronavirus At Weeding Ceremony

No fewer than 35 people who attended a wedding in Australia have contracted coronavirus.

The wedding took place at Tumbling Waters Retreat in New South Wales on 6 March.

A similar incident happened in Uruguay, with 44 guests contracting the virus from a guest who had been in Europe.

In the UK, couples who do not postpone their church wedding because of the coronavirus outbreak should only have two guests, the Church of England has said.

The Church has recommended the numbers attending ceremonies should be limited to the legal minimum of five people: the priest, the bride and groom, and two witnesses.

Many couples with forthcoming weddings are, however, opting to cancel.
