A refuah shelamah. Perhaps putting politics aside for a day and for the z’chus of the Rav’s recovery, let everyone wear a mask and take whatever other prudent steps they can to protect both themselves and others in the tzibur. We’ve seen enough notices about levayahs for a while .
“Perhaps putting politics aside for a day and for the z’chus of the Rav’s recovery, let everyone wear a mask”
Oh the hypocrisy of that line. Lets help you rephrase that… Perhaps putting politics aside for a day and for the z’chus of the Rav’s recovery, let everyone who feels masks are essential wear them and anyone who feels they aren’t (which includes rabbonim and doctors BTW) not wear them.
Ah, much better!
