 Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky, widely considered a highly influential rabbi and posek (final authority of Jewish law), urged people to get vaccinated for the coronavirus on Sunday.

In a video posted on Whatsapp, his followers posed the question to the rabbi whether "it is possible to [get the vaccination], or one must get it," with Kanievsky responding that everyone "needs" to get the vaccination in order to stop the spread of the virus.

  2. It's contradictory. Anyone who has Whatapps has a smart phone which Rav Kanievsky has forbidden so no true follower of his will ever see this video.

  3. OK, I wonder why RCK or the editor put it in quotes.
