Think he's reading/writing it as "en why".

Then he should fix that as well  ;)

To quote one moderate opinion on the topic:

You schmucks who use ridiculous journo-terms make me crazy! Finally, someone is willing to speak out against the use of “lede” in public. Because, ha ha, sucka, there’s no reason for it! (Plus, MOST OF YOU ARE JUST BLOGGERS.)

Dr. Rosen of Crown Heights made an excellent vaccine Q&A video with Dr. Naor Bar Zeev to answer people’s questions and fears.
Perhaps "Dr. Rosen of Gedaliah Society Crown Heights"

I believe that would be incorrect.

Dr Rosen לחוד and Gedaliah Society לחוד. Though they have co-signed statements.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Whatever the case, his first name should probably be included. Dr. Eli Rosen of Crown Heights.

Anyone want to check my work on this draft post?
Will the House change anything from the Senate version before passing?

There's only one (known?) Dr. Rosen in Crown Heights, though it's probably proper to include his first name the first time he's mentioned.

Not so much as an identifier, rather as the professional way to write it

"Newborn children will be eligible for monthly payments as soon as they’re born."

What's the alternative?
Will they still receive the full amount as a tax credit?
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.
