Polish churches should increase the number of Sunday masses in order to avoid big gatherings of the faithful, Archbishop Stanisław Gądecki, the President of the Polish bishops announced (March 10).
Gądecki reacts to the government’s decision to forbid crowds.
The statement says that “it’s unimaginable that we should not pray in our churches” - [as it happens in Rome].

Let's wait and see what happens next: I'm sure they too will bend to the dictates of the world because the Council is built on sand.

The first Communicate was suggesting blasphemous Communion on the hand, spiritual Communion and avoiding holy water in stoups. Second, suggests more masses and attendance of TV "masses" without Sacraments (sic!) for age 50+.

The more governments and Hierarchs will amend for their sins, do repare and less talk the sooner God will stop chastisement.

More masses a day is a great idea. But in some places it does not matter, like in Mexico. The churches fill up anyways.
Some time ago I landed in Mexico in Aguascalientes at about 8:00 PM on a Sunday.
I was there on a business trip.
I found the itinerary from years ago still in my mailbox archive.
I copy and paste some vintage here of the flight information.

I rented a car, drove to the hotel in the city center and checked in at about 9:10 PM.
It was warm that night and I decided to walk from the hotel into the city.
There was that old church and I was very surprised to see that there was a regular mass ongoing at that late hour of the night. Note that it was already about 9:40PM or so. I had not gone to mass that Sunday because of intensive travel, and I figured I could catch the last blessing of the day in that church.
I looked inside that church and it was completely full with people, I could not enter even if I wished.
So I missed that blessing and I thought: Well maybe another time.
The church started to empty out.
Just in the entrance of the church, there was this big chandelier.
I was looking at it while it swung from left to right.
That was the moment when I noticed that there was no wind and no draught that could ever move that big chandelier so wildly. So I decided to stay and watch the bizarre movement for a while.
Then something very very strange happened.
The church started filling up again.
To my amazement this was because of the 10:00PM regular mass that was about to begin.
That was the last thing I had ever imagined. To still not miss Sunday mass at that hour of the day.
The church filled up to the brim again.
There is no fancy webpage of that church. Just mass every hour on Sunday.
Sunday Night mass schedule:
5:00PM 6:00PM 7:00PM 8:00PM 9:00PM and 10:00PM
