I’ve posted the numbers. Only 10-20 new positives in Lakewood each day as per the OCHD. No change at least according to the official numbers.
This is in contrast to the writer who claimed there were no cases in weeks, but thanks for keeping us updated
The OCHD numbers include all communities in Lakewood. The other writer was no doubt referring to the Jewish community in Lakewood.

Lakewood rav/shul, seemingly without consulting with medical professionals.

In the context he uses it the comparison makes sense.

Technically, but easily misconstrued.

There seems to be a hope that the easing that Murphy is to announce later in the week might impact the ability to daven in shul.

Trying to get info on that. More concerned with NY at this point, though, as we were planning on spending Shavuos there.

Not my shul, but hopefully every community in their own way can include in their guidance something about a newfound appreciation for kedushas beis haknesses

Crazy that even in Israel where everything is pretty much back to normal, shuls remain closed (outside minyanim are flourishing) yet in the States people are already opening indoor shuls.

The only reason for that IMHO seems to be because the Israeli government has been very strict in enforcement.

We also have closed metal tubes with people packed next to each other for hours on end.

If they have actually have good circulation, it might not be that bad. (Obviously surfaces can still be an issue.)

Changeover of air in planes is ever 2-3 minutes. Don't think any places without a special ventilation system can compete with that.

I'm starting to hear rumors of Lakewood shuls quietly opening for  Minyanim of Exactly 10 people.

Interesting seems like word of mouth is the way theyre going, much smarter imo. I'm going to guess that once Murphy's guidelines become clear over the next couple days we'll see a letter

Pure curiosity. Are they discussing it with medical professionals or it’s a hergesh call?

Someone I know who would be participating was saying svaros, I asked him if he has any medical backing or where he heard it from, he said it’s pashut and you don’t need to ask doctors these things, they’ll just try to scare you with worst case scenarios. The things he was saying were factually incorrect and included some of the stupidity people are bandying about now with no knowledge. So I want to hear that they are in consultation with doctors when they do this, not just relying on personal svaros that were proven wrong in the past already.

There is nothing wrong with making an informed decision, whether or not I agree with it
