Do you mean this letter where he says to split into groups of 10?
https://www.theyeshivaworld.com/news/israel-news/1840119/new-corona-health-letter-from-rav-chaim-kanievsky-and-rav-gershon-edelstein.html


It does not say anywhere split into ten, it says keep some distance and stay home if sick. Which like I said keep minimum hishtadlus.

You realize that has doubled over the past week, yes?
Now do the math over the next few weeks, H"Y.
Yes, it has now spread almost across the almost whole world and the deaths are much less than flu like disease. Definitely  Don’t want this at all.
But What does that have to do with the riots that will be taking place soon or the millions of families that can’t afford to buy groceries next month. C”vs

Still the elephant in the room. There are hundreds of families that I know and probably millions that won't have money to buy food within a few days.
Any solutions?
I'm working with our federation but that's still at least a week out and probably longer.

There should be government help with this. And employers that can afford to pay its workers should do so.

No. A few people in critical condition. We're talking a matter of days.

Your cavalier "any deaths" when I have grandparents living in fear surrounded by hundreds of infected patients is sickening.

People who got engaged a week ago are being advised to get married with just a minyan within weeks due to the uncertain future.

Hospitals are already full in NYC.

Please, I beg you, listen to the experts who have been tracking this for months. Stay. Home. And stop spewing trash that could endanger lives were anyone to listen.

Yup. Was called hysterical, a fear monger and more because I exoressed shock that no guidelines were made for Purim.

People still don't get it. I was just told that at the wedding which I attended yesterday there was a guy who tested positive today.

What the hell is wrong with people?  This guy was not feeling well and went Motzei Shabbos to get tested. Why go to a wedding and kis and hug others? (yes, I watched him doing that)

Older people should quarantine themselves. Agreed.
Experts deal with  the disease itself, not all the ramifications that come with it.
Put the economy back and Yeshivas and life back!

Inexcusable that ASP isn't suspended when people are being told not to leave the house.
