The effects of COVID-19 on major 2020 religious activities worldwide

 

 

Since the outbreak of coronavirus in most parts of the world, a lot of activities have come to a halt including Easter and Ramadan. The Easter Season could not be observed by Christians in many parts of the world due to the fear of people getting affected by the virus. Also, restrictions have been imposed on citizens in many parts of the world as part of measures to curb the spread.

 

The Easter celebration is observed yearly to mark the death of Jesus Christ. During this period most Christians go to church on Good Friday to mark this day which is followed by merry making on Easter Monday. But due to covid-19 and measures put in place to curb its spread worldwide, this did not happen.

 

The same way Ramadan which is basically known as a praying and fasting period is also being observed now with most Muslims having to stay at home and practicing all other preventive measures on covid-19 while observing their religious obligation. As to whether their end of Ramadan festivity would be held is unknown.

 

Currently the covid-19 pandemic has affected more than 2.6 million people and killed at least 183,000 worldwide.
