A pastor who claimed "god is larger than this dreaded virus" has died from coronavirus just days after testing positive for the deadly disease.
Bishop Gerald Glenn died three days after testing positive for Covid-19, his daughter Mar-Gerie Crawley confirmed. Pastor Glenn had addressed a congregation at New Deliverance Evangelistic Church in Richmond, Virginia, where he proclaimed "god is larger" than Covid-19.
A day later the state of Virginia banned large gatherings of ten of more people - putting an end to his sermons. Ms Crawley said her father had an underlying condition which would often cause the intestines to inflame.
