Saint Rocco is venerated in the Roman Catholic Church as the protector against all contagious diseases.

O Great St. Rocco, deliver us, we beseech you, from contagious diseases, and the contagion of sin.

Obtain, for us, a purity of heart which will assist us to make good use of health, and to bear sufferings with patience.

Teach us to follow your example in the practice of penance and charity, so that we may,
one day enjoy the happiness of being with Christ, Our Savior, in Heaven.

Amen.
