Listening to Dems Gives them Power

Cases are way higher than anywhere else in NY, and i don’t know about NY but in Lakewood there were 20 people in the hospital as of last night….

So whether you want a shut down or not you can’t complain about the city thinking that the situation is not very good.

1, You can be ashamed of yourself. My writing this, if someone gets sick because of you, you violate the prohibitiion of לא תעמוד על דם רעך don’t be responsible for the blood of your fellow man. Even a safek pekuach nefesh is dacheh shabbos and Yom Kippur. On this it says סיג לחכמה שתיקה silence is golden. You are smarter than all doctors. You contribute to a Chilul Hashem.

I am not a De Blasio fan. But in fact no mayor ever has kowtowed as much to orthodox leadership. Now that we are ungratefully stabbing him in the back, we will never have another mayor who gives us as much heed:

He let metzitzah be peh continue.
He scuttled attempts to reform yeshiva education.
He allowed big funerals in the middle of the lockdown.

This is anti-Semitic?

By our words and actions we send the message that it doesn’t matter what you do for us. Just wait until Jumaane Williams is mayor. You will be sadly wishing for a return to the days of De Blasio.

To charliehall: Consider this. Allowing big Jewish funerals in the middle of a pandemic lockdown is not necessarily good for the Jews, as it increases the probability that some of the attendees will get seriously ill or die. But you are basically right – DeBlasio has, overall, been good for the Jews, including the frum. Now if only we could get the frum Jews to be good ….

11219 zip code includes a third of the nearby neighborhood Dyker Heights which there are no Jews. On the first day of Yom Tov there was reported a 5% of positive covid cases the same as friday, that is proof that the covid cases doesn’t have anything to do with the Jews!

well republicans deserve the power, if only we can have another Giuliani

People being afraid of dying and getting sick, like the over 1 Million people dead worldwide, is not because of the lying dems.
It is simple facts. The disease spreads. Science always wins. It is not a political party.

Just check out how great Trump and every single member of his administration are doing now that they believed it is all a democratic lie.

They all got infected. Trump needed major medical intervention from new and untested drugs to help him stay alive. Anybody besides him would be in the hospital now on a respirator.

I cannot believe that anybody who has watched the news from the white house as people fall sick one after the other since erev sukkos, can still announce that it is “the lying dems”.

I blame the republicans for ‘downplaying’ (trumps own words) the virus.

Mrs Syag,

FACT 1 “They tried the impeachment hoax. … And this is their new hoax.”
FACT 2 Trump needed to go to the hospital.
FACT 3 It wasn’t because he lost the sense of taste.
FACT 4 He got the experimental drug Regeneron that nobody else would have gotten.

Mrs Syag,
I have found that it is your habit to take a post where you do not disagree with the primary point of it and just argue on ancillary comments.
Also , you disagree vociferously without any proofs.

If you agree with the primary point then you should say that before you comment on the points that were brought in derech agav.

I could disagree with a lot of minutiae people say in posts, but try to stick to the main point.

Further, it exasperates me to defend a point which was secondary to my main point. Why should I argue about it if it wasn’t the thrust of what I was posting about anyway?

The main point was that not every person not wanting to take a lulav and esrog is because of the lying dems. “They are getting America unnecessarily hyped about an issue that is not as bad as they make it to be.”

If you disagree with it, then say so. If you agree with it, than why are you wasting your time and getting into an argument?

I don’t need to bring a proof from Trump regarding the seriousness of covid.
If yechi lives in CH then he can walk around to the shuls and count the empty seats. Or he can just read the front pages of Jewish newspapers.

The ancillary point was that the president and advisers also got very sick and he needed hospitalization. Thus showing from Republican president Trump that it is very serious.
I did not need to write it nor defend it because it was not important to my point.

Once you decided to be the arbiter of president Trump’s condition and calling what I wrote 2 lies, you will now need to defend yourself.

How do you know LIE 2 and 3 ? You do not have a special connection in the WH that told you his exact condition and they are not publicizing it.
My estimation (which is just that and can easily be disagreed with) is based on the drugs and treatment that they gave him.
President Trump was prescribed the steroid dexamethasone. Sean Conley, DO, the president’s physician, said the steroid was given to him in response to his blood oxygen levels dropping twice to 93 percent, according to STAT. Normal pulse oximeter readings usually range from 95 to 100 percent.
The steroid is typically recommended for hospitalized patients who need oxygen or are on ventilators.

My estimation could be wrong but unless you have a better medical degree than me, your estimation is no better.

Jackk,
It is ironic that right after me posting about dems lying about the severity of the virus, you go on to do exactly that! No one is dying right now-at least not that I’ve realized.
As far as Crown Heights, I can tell you right now as a crownheightser that there are no empty seats in shuls. 770 is packed to capacity as always – you can head over yourself and check it out. Everyone is welcome to join, of course. Just don’t impose on us any of your liberal ideas, or else we’ll pelt you with esrogim!

Yechi Hamelech, go and worship your dead rebbi. My friend 71 just died from the virus. My son’s rebbi 59 died.
