  • On Vaccination, Parental Rights, and Religious Freedom
    GEDOLIM LETTERS on Vaccination, Parental Rights, and Religious Freedom Gedolim Letters on Vaccination, Parental Rights and Religious Freedom • 1 Introduction is publication has been prepared on behalf of the talmidim of Moreinu Harav Shmuel Kamenetzky, shlit”a, Moreinu Harav Elya Ber Wachtfogel, shlit”a, and Moreinu Harav Malkiel Kotler, shlit”a. In this chapter, when mention is made of “our Gedolim,” the reference is to these three of our leading American Gedolim. Our Gedolim have made their views on vaccination known to their talmidim and to their petitioners. eir view is not extreme. ey do not advocate against vaccination. ey rule that vaccination is a parental choice, and that parents may not be coerced into vaccination. Perhaps most importantly, they state that parents who choose not to vaccinate should be viewed as parents exercising a right and making a justiable decision, not as agitators recklessly endangering the public welfare. is publication refutes the assertions—which have been recently circulated widely—that all Gedolim obligate parents to vaccinate, and that non-vaccinating parents are rotzchim and rodm. Non-vaccinating parents in our communities are acting with the full consent of da’as Torah, yet they are being maligned and vilied, and, in countless cases, victimized and hurt. e achdus and shalom within our communities and families is being gravely damaged; the above unfounded and untrue assertions have had much to do with it. Part 1: “We the Undersigned…” and the Chicago Letter Measles! e Original Lakewood Psak In years past, most states—including New York and In 2008, a Lakewood beis din was convened to hand New Jersey—granted parents the legal right to opt out down a ruling.

The other is, interestingly, a korban hatat or sin offering. The hakhamim question this strange korban; why is incredibly humbling.

    5779 - bpipn mdxa` [email protected] 1 c‡qa HALACHIC AND HASHKAFIC ISSUES IN CONTEMPORARY SOCIETY 130 - VACCINATION - PART 2 OU ISRAEL CENTER - SPRING 2019 In Part 1 we examined the halachic parameters of taking risks and saw the following: • The Tiferet Yisrael quotes a Yerushalmi and rules it is permitted to take a small immediate risk to avoid a larger potential risk. Thus, one may dive into a river to save someone who is drowning, even though this places the person at some risk of death and even though there is no certainty that the other person will actually drown. If adopting a small risk to save another person is permitted, all the more so adopting such a risk to save oneself! The Tiferet Yisrael applied this to smallpox inoculations of the time which carried a 1 in 1000 risk of death. • There are three categories of danger which we are obligated to avoid: (i) Immediate risks to life and limb (eg roof without fence): Torah obligation to avoid and proactively prevent (ii) Low-level risks which are common (eg drinking unchecked water): Rabbinic obligation to avoid and prevent (iii) Standard risks of everyday life: Good to avoid BUT Shomer Peta’im Hashem • Shomer Peta’im Hashem is a halachic principle which allows us to take normal low-level risks in life and rely on God for protection. There are number of ways in which such risks can be defined: - risks below a certain threshold (10%?) - risks which are future possibilities and not imminent - risks which are normal in society - risks which are justified by sufficient gain A] RISK TAKING - APPLICATION TO VACCINATIONS zcn iedc icen r'ek t'kre ,`id daeg llk dievn dpi`y xzeia dwegx dpkqa xaecn m`c izazk mixacd zpwqnae 1.

  • Comment, ENFORCEABILITY of AGREEMENTS to OBTAIN a RELIGIOUS DIVORCE
    \\jciprod01\productn\M\MAT\23-2\MAT210.txt unknown Seq: 1 3-MAR-11 14:33 Vol. 23, 2010 Agreements to Obtain a Religious Divorce 425 Comment, ENFORCEABILITY OF AGREEMENTS TO OBTAIN A RELIGIOUS DIVORCE Religion and divorce are not complementary ideas in our so- ciety. Most religions, at the very least, discourage divorce.1 The spectrum is very broad and some religions are stricter than others regarding their approaches to marriage and divorce policy. Re- ligious groups have not come as far in equal rights for women as the U.S. government has. In many religions, women are treated more harshly than men when it comes to divorce. This Comment will discuss whether a court may enforce an agreement that requires one spouse to provide the other spouse or ex-spouse with a religious divorce. Part I will describe secular approaches to marriage and divorce agreements and give an overview of a number of separate faiths with regard to marriage and divorce. Part II will describe judicial approaches to religious marriage and divorce agreements. This will include arguments for and against enforcing agreements to provide a religious di- vorce and an explanation about the courts’ limited enforcement ability. Part III will conclude this Comment by reviewing the re- strictions on remarriage to women of different religions and the arguments for and against judicial involvement in forcing relig- ious divorces including how courts have ruled on the constitu- tional arguments for and against such. I. Secular Approaches to Marriage and Divorce Agreements Religion is an area where people have strong opinions and beliefs that are different from the opinions and beliefs of others.

Infectious Diseases Society of America, Always-deadly measles complication more common than believed 10/28/16 Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a neurological disorder that is 100 percent fatal. Infants younger than 12 months, who are too young to receive measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine, can get infected with measles and later develop SSPE, which may lay dormant for years. While it was once thought the risk of post-measles SSPE was one in 100,000, recent research identified a rate as low as 1 in 1,700 in Germany among children infected with measles before they were 5 years old, and the new study found it is about one in 600 for those who get measles as infants before being vaccinated. There is no cure for SSPE and the only way to prevent it is to vaccinate everyone against measles. 2.

Rabbah replied: Why should I go to him? He questions me about mundane matters! He tells me, "One who goes to the washroom should not sit immediately or press too hard…" Rav Huna replied: He is involved in human life, and you say "mundane matters"? You certainly should go to him! Contemporary Halakhic Quandaries: 1 Vaccines & Jewish Law 1 4.
