BULGARIA-HEALTH-VIRUS-RELIGION-EASTER

Orthodox worshippers hold candles during the Easter midnight mass in front of the golden-domed Alexander Nevski Cathedral in Sofia on April 18, 2020, amid the COVID-19 pandemic caused by the novel coronavirus. - Bulgaria, a predominantly Christian Orthodox country, celebrates Easter when huge crowds traditionally gather in and around churches for vigils and services even if regular churchgoers are much less numerous. The church's governing body the Holy Synod has insisted that cathedrals and churches would remain open, despite persistent calls from medical experts and the government's coronavirus taskforce to shut their doors to believers to prevent a potential boom in infections with the novel coronavirus.
