In South Korea, the virus has spread among a religious group called the Shincheonji Church of Jesus in the city of Daegu, the country's fourth-largest city.

A 61-year-old churchgoer in Daegu tested positive and caused a "super-spreader" event: Over two weekends at tightly packed prayer services, she came in contact with over 1,000 people.

The South Korean government has canceled and postponed public gatherings.
