In 2020, the South China Morning Post reported that it had been the centre of a cluster of COVID-19 infections, claimed to have been caused by spraying salt-water into followers' mouths, under the belief that this would protect them from the virus.[2][3] Around 70 devotees were tested positive after the spraying of the salt water and the incident caused a sudden spike in coronavirus cases in South Korea.
