Quote from: RavYisroelReisman
It is very crucial that people go with an Ayin Tov. Many of us are nervous. We have been in cabin fever for two months and we are not in our normal spirit of joy. I am so afraid that people are going to come to Shul and see someone else may be standing too close or with a mask that is not properly worn or without a mask. That such people are going to end up being involved in a Machlokes. Chas V’shalom, Machlokes is far more dangerous than any virus in the world. Machlokes between Yidden especially if people are going to have a Machlokes in Shul. Please, when we go back to Shul do it with an Ayin Tov. Bring Beracha to everyone around you. It should be with a great joy and a great Hatzlacha.

meanwhile:

Rabbi Reisman's shul is my shul the Rav was coordinating all the minyanim since Thursday between the main shul, ezras nashim, and simcha hall.
I've seen him at almost every minyan so far and everyone is keeping to all his guidelines. Everyone at every minyan was wearing a mask.
Rabbi Reisman is doing an amazing job!

CMIIW but I’m under the impression that you don’t need to catch up once a new Sefer starts
That is the shita of MAHARAM Mintz but many argue.

Unmasking? Is your name Obama, Biden, McCabe, or Comey?

Just got a notice that 770 is selling a limited number of seats in a certain section of the Women's section for Shachris & Mussaf on YT at $280/day!

What’s it normally? Is that price gouging?

Not going to give my opinion about this here. It has never been done before. 770 sells seats once a year for RH+YK for $400 or $450 IIRC.

BH. Had first Mincha minyan today at work (next door office) since the shutdown. 2-3 people wearing masks, relative (i.e. not everyone exactly 6ft apart) social distancing.

Today we had a Shliach Tzibbur who lost his father (presumably to COVID-19) and did not have any symptoms (nor did anyone in his household). Accordingly, (almost) everyone wore masks (those that didn't have masks stayed as distant as possible). Looks like this will be what our Mincha Minyan will look like until we're give the all-clear to remove masks.

I’m not quite anonymous as it’s relatively easy to figure out who I am (my avatar, comments I’ve made, etc.) but I appreciate it nonetheless

They might have backtracked on this. They now put out a google form to sign up for a lottery to go in.

That’s for the poor people. The Shul still needs to make money.

If I were them, I would auction the 10 men section and raffle the 10 women section. Or do 5 and 5 in each.
