Lakewood covid cases

What's the long game here? Let it get out of control first and then a longer shutdown?

Why do you think it would lead to a longer shutdown? Just like the first shutdown, if there is a second one it will be dragged out way longer than necessary regardless

Also, why should there be a shutdown?

To save lives. Duh.

[shaulyaakov]

To save lives. Duh.

Something something car accidents something something herd immunity.

[Kobe Bryant]

To save lives. Duh.

I'm predicting, that they will try save lives by shutting down the economy, in the beginning of Oct.

There’s zero appetite for a shutdown. After what everyone has been through it isn’t going to happen again. And I’m talking about the non Jews.

Okay why not answer a question, you propose that they should lock down once stuff get out of control. When should that lockdown end? When are things under control? How will it save lives in the long run?

Schools can be closed down without a "shutdown".

This binary thinking with regards to lockdowns and shutdowns is just causing everyone to yell past each other.

Closing schools means many parents can't work, that's about as close as it gets before it's a full blown shutdown.

100%. The way I see it is that schools can/will be closed on an individual basis, but nothing on a state/county level (which is what people seem to be referring to when they yell about a lockdown.)

Ma! There's nothing to eat! I'm starving!

Yankel, I made your favorite supper. No you can't have 5 bags of chips for supper.

But Ma! I want chips! You're starving me! Why aren't you giving me anything to eat!

The extreme shut downs don't work because once opened, everyone rushed back to normal life.

"We all got it" they said.

 Judaism is resilient, we survived it all and that's the general mentality, big deal!

Except the modern day needs for life are much different than in times past, they had secret weddings in Nazi germani and stalinist russia and they didn't NEED hundreds of people.

Putting everyone at risk is sickening.. but the goyim are doing it, meh

I'm not saying that every thing being done causes virus spread, or that everyone getting the virus will die etc

Wear a f&+#@g mask. Nebech on your being uncomfortable for 5 minutes

But it does play into "bishvili nivra ha'olam' mentality. Reminded of the video of the guy smoking a cigarette while mbd tells him to stop.. it's my lungs.. It's not my problem if you all die from second-hand smoking

[KSMH]

Or less people are testing

I’ve heard that doctors aren’t testing to avoid another shutdown.

Some DR's are urging healthy ppl with suspected Covid-19 to stay home and isolate.

They are recommending not to test as local  health officials see results and try contact tracing which doesn't really work for obvious reasons, which causes headaches for everyone involved.

As with the first wave, responsible ppl shall avoid crowds and distance from ppl.

Still so unusual to see a guy in a mask in shul or yeshiva that the first thought that comes to mind (especially if he is young) is “is he symptomatic or was he exposed”?

FTFY

I assume they traveled recently.

Hearing that the cheder will be required to close down if they have 1 more positive.

[dasmo801]

Well then I assure you there will not be another positive case.

Did you hear this from a reliable source? I've been hearing this from my brother in the cheder, I assumed it was just cheder kid hock.

Heard it from a Cheder parent whose family is connected to the hanhala. I don't know how reliable it is either.

[flyingace]

Do not agree at all. They had several very sick Rebbeim and parents. They will do whatever they have to. It's not clear if and who is saying they will close down, either.
