Are you really casting aspersions on the multitudes of chassidim that went to the rebbe for yo"t?
I think we should all be able to understand it was a joke.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

Curious: are the organizers making sure there's a somewhat stable medical infrastructure this year? Trusting Ukraine with that is probably not the best idea.

Not sure what they're planning for this year, but every year there is a clinic with top Israeli and American doctors and equipment.

I know, but a clinic ain't gonna cut it this year, that's why I asked.

What type of patients/treatment are you asking about?

They also have access and send patients to the only "real" hospital in Ukraine (the one that the oligarchs and diplomats use...) :)

Something that doesn't rely on the local infrastructure in case there's an outbreak. I have to find the source, but I read a week or two ago how Ukraine was one of the lowest rated countries in terms of ability to handle a large outbreak based on the lack of PPE and the state of the country's healthcare system. If even 20% of the normal crowds come this year, that's something that needs to be accounted for.

The whole thing is about 5 days this year, I would think it would take longer than that for a serious outbreak.

It would, but a bunch of positive tests would possibly strand a ton of people for longer than the 5 days.
