Lourdes: “Healing” Pools Closed for Fear of Coronavirus
The Shrine of Lourdes, France, announced that pilgrims are still welcome, but the pools where the sick bathe in hope for healing are closed because of the coronavirus.
“Our first concern will always be the safety and health of the pilgrims and the shrine’s working community,” the shrine's webpage wrote (February 28).
The measure insinuates that seeking healing in Lourdes is a health risk.
