I heard Prospect Park is moving davening to a tent, can anyone confirm or deny?
Whispers of Oakley Hills changing up davening too in some way.

Pretty sure it's Prospect Square that is moving to a tent.

Dunno. Guy who lives there told me "my shul is moving to a tent". I assumed he davened in the development shul.

I'd be pleasantly surprised if there's mass vaccination this year. More likely is targeted vaccination in Q4.

I often wonder how long it will take from vaccine approval to actually hitting a critical mass of vaccinated people. Even if distribution and manufacturing can be ramped up quickly - I don't know if I for one want to be among the first guinea pigs- I'd rather wait a couple of months to see how the early birds fare, and if any complications arise.

By the time it's released, there will have already been 6 figures of people who were the guinea pigs for months.
But anyway, ramping up will take months.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Arlington Shul:
We will have a minyan in the tent for people who have or were exposed to corona.  Those who have will be in the tent and those who do not, will be outside the tent.  There will seats for women who were exposed to Corona behind the tent. Enter on Arlington on the right side of the shul – along the fence against Seeve’s property.  Women who have Corona should not come.

Why are men with the sickness allowed to attend but not women?

My guess is because they don't have 2 sections for women

Aren’t fully enrolled phase three trials ~30k people, a significant fraction of which get a placebo?

Here you go again, why can’t you respect the fact that other rabbanim may view things differently?

A consistent disrespect for chazal who've set the priorities. נשים פטורין ממ׳׳ע שהזמן גרמא ולימוד התורה is too radical for him, sad.

You're assuming his issue is with the women and not with the entire concept of a Covid+ or Covid-exposed minyan to begin with.

A relative in the 5 Towns tells me there were plenty of outdoor covid minyanim around. The real feel temps were in the low 40’s in the morning with the stiff breeze. By the second day many of the men were coming down with sniffles from the cold. He figures that those who avoid covid will probably end up catching pneumonia instead....

Understand that it is virtually unheard of for rabbonim to advise the klal to disregard a medical consensus unless it is hepech halacha.

Sorry then, I got this impression after seeing up thread questioning this;

How do you explain what's happening now?
If you don't care why would you comment?

I can't. In my very limited knowledge, I'd hesitantly suggest that this may be unprecedented. If it's not, I'd like to know when in history this has happened before.
