    In the UK it’s common for recovered Covid patients to skip the vaccine. Because evidence demonstrates they don’t need it.

    Define “don’t need”. Does it still lower the total risk?

    i got vaccinated because my rabonim told me to

    Your rabbonim b”H hold you are supposed to follow mainstream medicine, not conspiracy theorists.

    I just wanted to say that I got covid after two phizer shots

    So did I, Moderna (which if anything is supposed to work better against Delta)

    and I was pretty sick and so was my wife so I dont know where the info that people who were vaccinated dont feel covid is from, but it should be checked

    Here’s the thing – they get the information from following many thousands of people, not just a few. So they have a lot better information than just you or I do based on what our personal experience will show us.

    Your rabbonim have basically said to trust what the vast majority of medical researchers and doctors have said, which is that vaccinating generally reduces the number of serious illnesses and deaths, even if there are many “breakthrough” positive cases.

    It’s impossible to know for sure in any individual case, but it’s very likely that had you or I not gotten vaccinated, we wouldn’t be here to be having this conversation.

    Question for my fellow conspiracy theory people: the liberal government is pushing vaccines which are poison, and dismissing HCQ and Ivermectin which actually work. So the liberals are taking the vaccines, and the right wingers are taking Ivermectin and HCQ.

    We know the government is evil and genocidal, but why are they so stupid to kill off their own people and have the right wingers survive??

    P.P.S. It is extremely rare for a recovered Covid patient to get a severe case of Covid.

    I personally know a bunch of people who got it twice. I probably got it it from such a person.

    vaccine for little kids, whose risk is minimal. (And the vaccine itself contains risks, especially for kids.)

    The obvious question is which risk is higher, and if even, should we vaccinate kids to protect the elderly, especially since we know people can get it multiple times or after vaccination.

    2scents: Any more prevalent than a vaccinated individual who became infected and isn’t doing well?

    There are apparently studies indicating both ways. Probably it’s very similar.

    while let’s say Ivermectin, would only cost a few Dollars per a patient.

    And cause 85% male infertility.

    (Yeah, I know that was debunked, but so was the pro Ivermectin study. So make up your mind, do you believe in debunked studies or not?)

    Well maybe you got the Delta variant.
    The vaccines help with this variant – because it produces Antibodies that directly attack the Covid 19 Virus.to get Covid.

    I probably did get the Delta varient. Even though I got two doses of Moderna.

    Common sense advice – lead healthy lifestyle after that and do an overall medical checkup.

    I have actually been doing that recently, but I doubt that’s what caused me to get Covid.

    It’s not uncommon for vaccinated people to get Covid.

    Really? Do you know anyone who did?

    Booster shots have also been proven to further reduce illness in the vaccinated. Yet very few people got booster shots.

    In Eretz Yisroel it’s common. If the evidence holds up for its benefit, it will become common here.

    Actually, it is very uncommon in unvaccinated young healthy people.

    Unfortunately a lot of young people who thought they were healthy weren’t, and died.

    It is also very uncommon in unvaccinated people who previously recovered from COVID-19.

    Not uncommon to get it again, and vaccines have been proven to further reduce illness in recovered Covid patients.

    Or maybe that was the intended effect of the vaccine, and preventing serious illness is an unintended side effect which the evil government didn’t account for.

    The parallel question necessary when asking the titled question is what are the risks of taking the vaccine.

    Also what are the risks of Covid. Which are somewhat known (death is a common side effect, as well as serious mental and physical issues in some), but the same way we don’t know the long term effects of the vaccine, we don’t know the long term effects of Covid (for those who survive).

    Actually, Bill Gates is much smarter than you. He knew you would think that repurposed deworming drugs would be your choice, so he’s been putting sterilizing agents and tracking chips in Ivermectin for many years now. Don’t fall for it.

    A frum woman wearing a lace wig is being totally hypocritical. Everyone with a half a brain knows that all Rabbis whose opinions are used as sources to allow women to wear wigs would absolutely not approve of lace wigs

    Just so happens that there are some choshuv poskim who don’t think lace shaitels are assur.

    I hope you are willing to retract that anyone who thinks that way has less than half a brain.

    I’m not sure why you are dismissive of Rabeinu Bachya. The idea if the physical power of gemstones is accepted by mainstream poskim, hence the popularity of even tekumah and rubies, even among people who don’t generally go for the latest segulah fads.

    They sing Shir Hamaalos to almost anything, but maybe you’re thinking of Od Yishoma (two come to mind – Carlebach’s less famous one, from his first record, and the famous Od Yishoma played first at every chasunah, which I believe is a Modzitzer nigun).

    Moh Oshiv was originally on Laibel’e Haschel’s album (called Moh Oshiv) and later sung by MBD on a Suki and Ding All Star album called Hallel.

    Lo Omus is a Boruch Chait song originally sung by MBD and Michoel Stretcher on Live in Yerushalayim (Zichron Menachem). Schwebel Scharf and Levine later sang it on Areshes S’foseinu.

    Name 3 songs that MBD performed on his own albums only after performing them on albums where he wasn’t the main singer.

    BoruchSchwartz already mentioned Someday (from JEP 4, then on his The English Album); Neshomele was on Journeys 2 before the Double Album came out, and I believe 2 songs from an Ohel Concert were later put on his own albums; Lonely People (The English Album) and Kol Dodi (We Are One). He sang Tifiloh L’oni on M’shor’rim, and Moh Oshiv on Hallel (then HASC) before singing them on Kumzitz. So I’m counting 6, not sure if DaMoshe didn’t think of all of them or categorized them differently than I did.

    He composed 9 of the 12 songs, but Vahaviosim was one of the 3 which he didn’t compose. He is credited on the record as the assistant conductor, while Harvey Erlich conducted the choir and Heshi Nussbaum produced the record. Personally, I wouldn’t call it a Yerachmiel Begun album since he didn’t produce it and was only the assistant to the head choir conductor, but I guess I could understand why whitecar calls it a Yerachmiel Begun album.

    Rev E, if someone is davka changing into weekday clothing to be able to wear it during the week, it is hachana. It’s clear that he’s not doing it because this is what he wants to wear now.

    There’s no minhag to allow blatantly preparing for chol on Shabbos.

    Stepping can be done on a weekday in 9 days when not worn before.

    As far as wearing weekday clothes on Shabbos, you are mistaken. It’s hachana.

    The only heter is clothing you really could wear on Shabbos (such as a white shirt) and on Shabbos morning, instead of putting on your shirt from Friday night, you out on a fresh shirt, that’s okay. Same when waking up from a nap.

    But stam trying on clothes that you don’t need to put on is hachana.

    To claim that they are a hefsek makes no sense. It’s like saying the icing is a hefsek in the cake. Or that the cufflinks are a hefsek in the shirt.

    I’m sure you realize that there is no din that a cake or shirt can’t have a hefek. So, the comparison doesn’t make sense.

    That’s pretty much a fallacy. In the vast majority of cases (I’m not aware of any exceptions but there certainly might be) the wife is mochel on him going to work and allows him to go to the beis medrash.
