In a special vaccination operation that took place on Friday among the Belzer community, some 1,500 people, mostly yeshiva students and avreichim, arrived at the main Belzer Beis Medrash in Yerushalayim in order to receive the COVID vaccine.
The would-be vaccine recipients arrived at 7:00 a.m. and continued coming until 2:00p.m. in the afternoon. The operation was organized by Rabbi Aharon Fried, one of the high-ranking Askanim in Belz. Yerushalayim Mayor, Moshe Lion, joined in the effort and partnered with the community in order to continue promoting the receiving of vaccines in the city.
The Chassidim received the vaccine in accordance with the instruction given by the Belzer Rebbe. According to other Askanim in the group, future operations such as this will take place as well.

Do the Belzer women also get a vaccination drive at their Belzer premises? {Especially their pregnant women}
A Beth Hamedrash is a Mikdash M’at, a Mokom Kodosh. A hall should have been used for the vaccinations, not a Mikdash M’at
yosef yehuda how stupid could a person be instead of congratulated them u come up with your silly comment don’t u see this is not part of the shul it looks like one of the half dozen wedding halls that are inside the shul building
Yosef Yehuda come on.
the belzer Beis hamedrach refers to the entire complex which includes numerous wedding halls etc…
Even if you were to be right, it would be the decision of כ”ק האדמו”ר מבעלז לשיט”א or perhaps כ”ק הגאון ר’ שמאי קהת גרוס as such it is undoubtedly beyond the capacity of an anonymous blogger – or anyone shprt of an odom godoil to express an opinion
according to the picture it is in the hall downstairs
The vaccines were not given inside the main Beis Hamedrash but rather in the lobby of the Beis Hamedrash .
