Is it time for a new thread titled "Famous people that didn't get Covid-19" and maybe split into two threads for vaxxed and non-vaxxed.
I think Biden will be very lonely in that thread.

Are you sure? Please elaborate on these differences?
Do we need to do it all over again? You've been on this board for the past 2 years, you know the differences ;)

The fact that we see the Israeli rabbonim in the news with corona, and not a single American Rosh Yeshiva or rav (even though they all have omicron too) highlights the stark difference between countries' approach to covid.
Its the stark difference in American vs. Israeli frum media and culture.

I think it’s just happenstance, and not necessarily a product of differences you’re suggesting.

Strongest anti-vax argument I've ever heard.

Since the beginning of Covid you have seen every RY/Rebbe in Israel in a capsule, protected, everyone around them with a mask (while they are not wearing), and they have all said to take the vax
vs in the US (At least with the Chassidish rebbes) none have been in a capsule, none have rules that you need to wear a mask around them, none have said anything on the vax (not for nor against).

Generally the heimish crowds in the NYC metro region gave up on covid right away and started living a normal life. While the media did a segment how the Amish beat covid like this, they are not doing it on the Jewish people

So vaxxing, masks, and capsules all cause COVID? I don’t follow.

I'm not sure if you understood my point - only Israeli rabbonim getting covid are subject to "Man Bites Dog", whilst in America it's hohum.

Not only the media, but the המון עם as well. People in Israel were living in more fear from Covid vs their Heimish counterparts in the USA

Obviously. They all (along with hysteria) weaken the natural immune system.
