“We are obliged to obey the regulations from our rabbis…and yeshiva deans who instructed married students [Avrechim] to get the vaccine against COVID, in accordance with doctors’ opinions that it is safe to use.”

“Therefore, we call on all married students [Avrechim] who can to follow the doctors’ advice and get vaccinated.”

  2. It must be confusing. Every day there's another "Kol koreh" that says that vaccinations are forbidden. RCK says get the vaccine. No, he said it's forbidden! How do they know who to believe?
    I mean, it's a medical issue so they could ask their doctors. {Insert bitter laughter}
