Coronavirus Update #31: Important Updates on Resocialization - COLlive - Chabad News

The following comments pertain to our community here in Crown Heights only.

At least to some degree, masks and social distancing decrease the spread of the virus.

To those above 65 (or who have significant underlying health issues such as diabetes and lung disease) who have NOT been sick yet and do NOT have antibodies, please continue to take significant caution.

If it is beneficial for you to have family members visit, then masks and social distancing should continue to be maintained, and family members who have already been sick pose a lower degree of risk than family members who have NOT been sick.

To those above 65 who have already been sick OR have antibodies, you are at a lower risk for getting ill than those your age who have not been sick yet.

If you have not been sick yet and do not have antibodies, you should continue to take precautions – you can socialize with those close to you if you feel this would be beneficial, but the attempt should be made to restrict this to those unlikely to be infectious.

Social distancing and masks should continue to be adhered to.  Similarly, going outside and on errands should be done as needed, with those similar precautions of masks and social distancing.

It goes without saying: Even with those low risk groups that are beginning to resocialize, crowded indoor places, such as indoor weddings where there is dancing and mingling in close quarters and a complete breakdown of social distancing, remain potentially dangerous to those unprotected, who may be swept along into a “makom sekana”.

Outdoor minyanim should likewise continue to follow social distancing and masks are advised.

Once again high risk individuals (defined above) need to be particularly cautious with mask use and distancing.

Susceptible individuals who travel outside the community are at risk of becoming ill in a setting where cases are still prevalent

Thus when they return to Crown Heights they should continue to separate themselves from vulnerable others, and monitor themselves closely, immediately reporting any suspicious symptoms

In order for all the members of our community (including the vulnerable) to attempt a cautious return to socialization, we must ask those intending to visit Crown Heights to postpone their trips for the foreseeable future
