And, whether or not some gedolei yisrael said he was not a gadol or not, he is a Gadol and we all have to respect him.

Not sure what that’s supposed to mean. Are we supposed to accept your assessment over the assessment of gedolim?

because what other gedoilim accomplished was mainly during their life

Just another example of the myopic Chabad-centric mindset.

Why is there no mention of non-Chabad gedolim and Jews?

Because they are unimportant (at best) in Chabad. That is the blunt truth.

Amazon has some Vivitar cameras for under $30.

Obviously, they won’t be as good as most smartphone camera, but not everyone has a smartphone.

770 is also gematria חמור בלי דעת (which are also ראשי תיבות חב”ד). Does that prove anything?

There’s a book named The Dynamics Of Dispute, written by Rabbi Zvi Lampel, which deals with this issue.

DY: I told you so!

Yes, you did, but so far you’re wrong.

Do you know how much Remedsivir & Monoclonal Antibodies cost?
And those are approved the Government.

Right, and so are Dexamethasone and Fluvoximine, which aren’t that expensive.

What point did you prove?

IHNIWTASF

I’ll note that they don’t come in individual portion containers, which is what the OP asked.

Any one know any dibuk stories

they getting smaller and smaller

I said that almost five years ago

As I pointed out on the other thread, R Soloveitchik’s position that a woman learning secular studies must also learn gemara has been shown in real life to be incorrect.

The controversy isn’t about a self motivated woman learning on her own, so the second part of your post is irrelevant.

@Daas and Syag and AAQ this tread is about Rav Tendler, not womens education

Someone mentioned his shittah on women learning gemara.

The claim is that modern educated women need Gemora learning to support their emunah at the intellectual level they are.

It’s a silly claim, because there’s plenty of material which Bais Yaakovs offer which is on a high intellectual level without learning gemara. Speak to anyone beho knows something about BJJ.

You may be particularly unappreciative to the concept because it applies less to women in your community

Aside from that comment being arrogant and condescending, it’s blatantly untrue. There is certainly a big range of education level in our community (as there is in the MO community) but that range extends to law degrees and above. Yet, learning gemara is still unnecessary and therefore assur (self motivated learning is not assur, but mandated, structured classes are). Plus, as mentioned above, the Bais Yaakov system has managed to make a high level Torah based curriculum available for those who need it, without having to resort to learning gemara.

Bottom line: the success of the Bais Yaakov curriculum is a complete rebuttal to the claim that nowadays it is necessary to teach gemara to girls, and the only reason the MO do it is because they are too weak to fight the feminist elements among them.

The whole shampoo industry is a scam.

That’s why it’s called “sham”.

a less clear Aug 2021 survey of 5000 nurses:

RNs?

I believe that the higher the level of education among the various categories of healthcare workers, the higher the vaccination rates.

They were way worse the mortality rates were almost 100%.

Please be more specific. Which of those was a worldwide pandemic with an effective vaccine which was not “mandated” in some form?

From that PBS interview:

“What I would say is that, actually, this study, looking at what happened in Provincetown, is the vaccines working exactly as we expected. And let me lay out why.

And what you had was, you had an influx of a lot of people coming to Provincetown for July 4 celebrations, a lot of unvaccinated people, Delta virus surging. You did have a good number of breakthrough infections. Not surprising when you have a lot of people packed into bars and clubs.

But let’s see what happened to those people. Almost all of them did extraordinarily well. A small number ended up in the hospital. No one died. And it did not fuel this massive outbreak that has led to more and more cases in an exponential growth.”

Etc.

Smallpox,measles, Sars1, Influenza, (Bubonic Plague) Black Death,Polio, Spanish Flu, Asian Flu, H1N1 Swine Flu…

What about them? Did they create the same health crisis we have now, with as easy a solution?

Since when have employees checked your vaccine status as a requirement to work?

I don’t know if that’s happened or not, but it’s legal.

Also there are many medical workers refusing to take the vax

Not many doctors though, and they have a much better science background.

Never has there been a mandate for everything such as employment, going to a restaurant or gym or museum etc., with the potential for supermarkets and all basic needs, and all this without exemptions.

Never before has there been such a need for it.

I used to beleive this pandemic was really deadly

You were right. And 650,000 deaths into it, it still is.

Government hypocrisy abounds, no question, but that doesn’t change our obligation to keep ourselves as safe as reasonably possible.

If vaccinated still need to wear a mask and can still transmit the virus to others and also get infected themselves, please explain how the vaccine is effective.

People who take the vaccine are less likely to get sick and die.

In my book, that means it’s effective.

Not perfect, effective.

No and are you ok with car accidents, driving under influence, scammers, people dying from the flu or any other virus?

I’m in favor of taking common sense precautions against all of the above.
