Fantastic shiur, thanks for posting.

Very strong halachic case for wearing a mask and ignoring peer pressure.
@ExGingi, response?

Who am I to respond. I  do not posses 1/100th of Rabbi Braun's Torah knowledge and bekius, and he has the added benefit of סייעתא דשמיא that comes with holding a position of Halachic Authority for a community.

The only comment I can have is that I wish this wouldn't stay in the realm of פלפולא בעלמא but rather get down to עולם המעשה. I hope I will be proven wrong, so far it doesn't seems so. Though I did make my comments known to his close circles in no unequivocal terms this morning.

Change starts with you.

Everyone is masked at my minyan without exception.

A well known doctor in Lakewood who seems to be familiar with the cases in Deal says Ditcheks  claim of reinfection in those two patients is highly dubious at best. He says there is one case in queens that is being looked at somewhat more closely than Ditcheks claims.

name?

You're really trying to compare your minyan to 770?     

Maybe we can write a fairytale book about that comparison.

You start by leading by example and upholding the psak din.

the guidance on guests isolating would be nice if it was followed as well. no reason for locals to welcome them with open arms in defiance of halachic guidance

name?

I don’t think he wants to be named so take for what it’s worth to you

I love when people do that, they lose credibility IMO

If he puts his name out there he will be the next one for ditchek to attack.

Ok so if you think you are right then stand behind it

The doctors in Lakewood are very wary of any sort of public announcement after the backlash they experienced in March/April. Source: a Lakewood doctor.

All people want to do nowadays is be politically correct, no one cares about the truth anymore.... its sad

I agree with the sentiment but this is a practical decision knowing that they have limited bullets in their "public announcement" gun, they can't afford to lose more trust.

[mochjas]

Well either way, if I have 2 doctors contradicting each other, I would like to be able to pull up their resumes and make an informed decision on who to believe, but when all I hear is a well respected doctor from Lakewood that doesnt help me much.

I hear your frustration, but remember that most doctors just want to deal with medicine, not politics. On hot button issues like this one, it can be challenging to find a balance. One public statement, and you get dragged through the mud by anyone who disagrees.

Np go with Ditchek if he seem credible to you

if they are honest then there is no losing trust

you only lose trust when you are being dishonest

Practically speaking, what would you do differently if you felt one doctor was right? At this point, if you're taking the precautions you should be taking, it shouldn't matter if 1 or 2 cases are reinfections or flare-ups.

listen say what you want about Ditcheck but at least he doesnt hide behind what he believes in.....
