YWN has leaned that the Bobover Cheder located on Route 45 in Monsey will be closed until after Shavuos due to the recent outbreak of Swine Flu. Sources report that numerous children are showing symptoms, with two confirmed cases of the Swine Flu. This is the first Yeshiva closing in the Monsey area due to Swine Flu.
The children were sent home today (Wednesday) along with a note explaining that the closing is being down as a precautionary measure.
All parents are being advised that if there is anyone in the home with flu-like symptoms, none of the children should be sent to Yeshiva until they are seen by a doctor.
The building will be cleaned before classes resume after Shavuos.

Before we close downALL OUR RELIGIOUS INSTITUTIONS, INCLUDINGS SHULS, let’s get sensible and institute a program of high-dose vitamin D3 for everyone to dramatically increase immunity and protect our population.
I was in a hospital emergency room, and not one doctor was wearing a mask. I asked why. weren’t they afraid of Swine Flu?
The doctor answered: “This is simple hysteria. If you have proper nutrition, you don’t have to worry.
Let’s follow the advice of Obama’s top assistant, Rahm Emanuel, “Never let a crisis go to waste!”
Let’s use the heightened awareness engendered by this crisis to teach people to get rid of the junk food they are feeding our children, and start introducing fresh vegetables, beans, whole grains, nuts, and seeds.
Let’s adopt Obama’s slogan: “Change!!!”
deepthinker – what you’re saying is good but please dont give Obama so much credit
can one contract swine flu from a dead cow’s head, body and guts lying around a classroom?
just a thought.
Very good step, Vnishmartem..
i dont knw what #1 is talking abt but nutrition has n-t to with s-o having an immune system prob – one they may not be aware of c’v.
im just recovering from the flu myself. please realize while it may not be dangerous missing a week of work & not eating etc. for days is n-t to make fun of.

all will suddenly be better when govt healthcare is shoved down our throats & our taxes are raised into the 60% range to cover this mess. Oh & don’t forget the VAT tax they are now talking about which would raise prices across the board ON EVERYTHING by at least 10 percent. Just ask people in Europe if they are happy with their taxes.
We need to stop these out of control maniacs NOW!!
does anyone know how many kindelach learn in this cheder?
to #3. its not that cheder that had the cow situation. there are 2 in monsey
