The mayor of Bnei Brak, Rabbi Avraham Rubinstein, who also serves as secretary of the Council of Torah Scholars, is also expected to be vaccinated today at the main medical center of Leumit Health Services. Rubinstein was a partner in the course of the call of the Torah scholars to go out and get vaccinated soon against the corona.
Earlier today, Sephardic Chief Rabbi Yitzchak Yosef published a letter calling on the masses to get vaccinated. “I hereby appeal to our brothers in the Holy Land to obey the instructions of the doctors, as it is said in the Torah ‘and the healer will heal’, hence permission was given to the doctor to heal, and it is said ‘and live in them’ and our rabbis demanded in the Talmud and live in them and not die in them.
“Therefore, after we were informed and overcame the grace of the Shiite and found a vaccine that prevents infection with the coronavirus, and made all the necessary attempts and experts say that the vaccine is indeed beneficial in stopping the epidemic and there is no danger. To prevent danger from oneself and others. “
