Conclusion	2020-07-14		.txt	text/plain	3142	139	60	It was written as the COVID-19 virus was sweeping across the globe, and Clark reflects upon the comparisons between the virus' outbreak at Wuhan in 2019 and two French Catholic missionaries, François-Régis Clet, and Jean-Gabriel Perboyre, who were martyred in the Wuchang district of Wuhan in the mid-nineteenth century. It struck me that both of these missionaries, François-Régis Clet (1748-1820) and Jean-Gabriel Perboyre (1802-1840), were executed in a fashion uniquely relevant to the way in which this particular virus attacks those whom it infects, and that their stories might help explain how the contours of China's Christian history connect to our own time.	./cache/cord-029100-gxn15jgt.txt	./txt/cord-029100-gxn15jgt.txt
