New CDC guidelines as Trump pushes for churches to re-open, Walz and MN faith leaders continue talks

May 22, 2020 By Bill Werner

The C-D-C has issued new guidelines after President Trump demanded local officials reopen churches, synagogues and mosques for Memorial Day weekend — that while negotiations continue between Governor Tim Walz and Minnesota’s faith leaders. Commissioner Jan Malcolm says the state Health Department will continue to strongly recommend social distancing, limitations on the number of people, no direct person-to-person contact, and “no singing, painful as that is. The data’s pretty darn clear that talking and loud talking and singing are pretty important transmission risks especially, again, in close quarters.”

The Catholic Archdiocese of Saint Paul and Minneapolis announced Thursday that public Masses will resume next Tuesday despite the governor’s order — and some Lutheran churches announced similar plans.
