The Church's Response to Coronavirus
After a meting with the House of Bishops, they have written to recommend the suspension of the administration of the chalice, as well as the physical contact involved in the laying on of hands and sharing the Peace.
Their advice is that Communion should be in one kind only [ie. the bread or wafer] with the priest alone drinking the wine.
