@commonsaychel yes I did attempt to attend. My son & I counted twice, then promptly walked home in shock. Whereupon my wife was in shock that I was in shock.
53 souls in one room for Shacharis yesterday. Not a mask in sight. Just as predicted.
Watch the cases spike. Many of those crammed-in men and boys packed like sardines, had relatives at deaths door just a few weeks ago. As the Dr. said in an older post, what short memories we have.
To those who boast about the 75% Frum immunity, this begs the question, what are you feeling about those 25% of your parents, grandparents, Gedolim, and now children – NOT lucky enough to be in your safe category.
Moshe From Midwood, most respectfully, the sad fact is, that even during the worst days in the beginning & over Pesach, although the heavily monitored measures, eg. Minyonim were mostly observed, the most important things like 6ft & masks/gloves were never observed by MANY (not all, but way too many) in many of or neighborhoods. During the worst days, people were in grocery stores without masks, walking our main avenues coughing in bypasses faces without masks, spitting into phones as they walked down busy sidewalks, children in stores touching food & putting it back etc., if you live in Midwood you know the drill.
So, the sad fact is that far too many people in many of our neighborhoods, never observed social distancing even during the worst days of the crisis.
Although you perhaps recovered or never had it, think of vulnerable people who still may become ill when we all rush back to pre-Covid days tomorrow, as if the crisis were entirely over. Which it isn’t.
I shall defer to the wise words of the epidemiologist.
