Didn't they mention that the logic for that is since it's holiday season it will have less of an economic impact (not sure I fully understand that, just repeating)...not some sort of anti religious agenda.

Would explain the scheduling of past lockdowns... I’m sure the Frum Israelis don’t appreciate this.

Are they going to be shutting the airport ?

They probably will (if I had to guess), though even with the airport operational, tourism is a trickle because non-citizens need special/restricted permission to enter Israel.

Unless they are counting on people flouting the quarantine rules, making all the main "Jewish" countries red will have reduced that alot even without closing the airport. Charedim will come/find a way to come regardless of a seger.

I don't think there is any chance of them enforcing a lockdown over tishrei in any chareidi area. I dont think any of the leadership will be on their side this time.

My understanding was that previous Israeli lockdowns in Haredi areas were enforced, at least compared to NYC.

True to varying degrees. This is a whole new equation.

Where can someone who is not under the kuppa get tested for Corona in Yerushalayim Mercaz Hair - not for travel but because they think they may have it?

Hope not. Saw the RCCS headline regarding 63 local cancer patients R”L, and for a moment I thought it said COVID...

Kfar Habad is specifically because of an outbreak at a summer camp which led to more outbreaks at other summer camps etc

@Yehuda57 not to drag other conversations into this thread, but this is why kids not being masked isn't so clear cut (in either direction).
Failing at maintaining Lurker status.

Interesting. If they’re going by home address and the infections happened and are quarantining in a different place, then this is misleading. Any community spread recorded in KC?

Day camp or overnight camp? How old are the kids?

Either way, the likelihood that masks would help with kids so close together for such long periods of time is extremely low.
