@midwesterner Unfortunately, not so fast.
Everyone seems to have focused on an erroneous headline and missed the actual psak. When the question was posed to Rav Chaim shlit”a, it was asked regarding someone whom the health ministry is advising to be in self-quarantine! Read it here for yourself:
If there is a different psak from R’ Chaim that I don’t know about, then please update me.
If you’re referring to the fact that he’s said to follow the Health Ministry guidelines, well he’s been saying that from the very beginning too, including when he said to nonetheless still ensure that children remain learning.
