Hamodia would like to present a list, to the best of our ability, of the niftarim, and ask that everyone take some time to daven and undertake improvements l’illui nishmasam. May Hashem accept our tefillos and bring a swift end to this epidemic. We hope to be able to present proper tributes at that time.

BMG Poskim's Guidelines for Making Pesach 5780
Beth Medrash Govoha Poskim’s
Guidelines for Making Pesach 5780
By Rabbi Yaakov Forcheimer
Rabbi Shmuel Felder
Rabbi Shmuel Meir Katz
Rabbi Osher Chaim Lieberman
Selling Chometz
You can sell your Chometz by using the shtar from Rabbi Shmuel Blech, printed in the BP Weekly and Lakewood Shopper. Cut the two pages, fill out the Hebrew and English shtar, and submit to Rabbi Blech by fax at 732-367-5600, by email sellmychometz@gmail.com by mail 1060 Forest Avenue, or dropped off there. An article in the Lakewood Shopper explains more. You can call 732 364 9309 with questions.
You can also sell chometz by appointing any Rov over the phone as your שליח to sell your Chometz.
Selling Chometz Gomur
We suggest that even if you don’t ordinarily sell גמור חמץ ,this year you should evaluate your situation, as it will be difficult to obtain Chometz right after Pesach without exposing yourself and others to sakana from crowds attempting to purchase Chometz. If in the past you did not sell גמור חמץ and you choose to do so this year you do not need to make נדרים התרת to do so.
טבילת כלים
The Kailim Mikva is closed. Tevilas Kailim for dishes or appliances requiring tevilla may be done at Lake Carasaljo in an inlet that is not in the main flow of water (one such spot is area near Lakewood Avenue and 5th Street, as the Rosh Yeshiva Reb Aharon Zt”l allowed Tevilas Kailim along that area.) Extreme care should be taken to find a separate spot with full social distancing and to not be near anyone else.
Utensils and appliances in the BMG “PesachBox” distribution do not require tevilla, as it will remain
legally under the ownership of an יהודי אינו until after Pesach. (Before using those utensils next year,
they will require tevilla.)

Video: Rav Chaim Kanievsky shlita Butcher Shop can Be open to sell meat for Pesach
A question is posed to Harav Chaim Kanievsky shlita if a butcher (in Lakewood?) shop should stay open since people have to buy meat for Yom Tov on the other hand there is a possibility that customers may infect each other with the virus he said they can be open and should daven in order to have a shmira.

statement from Harold Herskowitz.
I hope everyone is safe and healthy at home. I have decided to run in the Republican primary at the last minute and unfortunately I decided to run after the need for everyone to stay home and not interact with one another. In order to run I need a petition with signatures to be on the ballot. If you could please take a moment and sign the petition electronically for the primary on June 7th. I know that things look bleak right now but I decided that when this is all over it will be even more important that our township should be run for the benefit of all of us and not a select few. I am looking toward the future and I hope you will join me. Thank you for your support. And please be careful and safe.

Crown Heights update
-Looking at the data, it would appear that there were significantly fewer new infections in the past few days when compared with last week. In a large part this may be due to the rapid accelerant that Purim provided in spreading the infection throughout our community.
-There will likely continue to be sporadic cases through our community among those who have not been exposed, including the elderly and those with chronic illness, and we must repeat our strong admonition for those who are elderly (>65 years old) or with chronic illness, who have not had the virus yet, to remain socially isolated.
-We are still seeing many patients who have been ill for over a week who are not doing well. Once again, please attend to eating, drinking, and walking around the home regularly.
-Another plea is made for adults who HAVE HAD the illness, to go and take care of your parents if they are currently ill.
-Concerning Plaquenil (Hydroxychloroquine) – this morning, the governor of New York banned the sale of Plaquenil.

PREFACE
In former times, wealthy people who had large houses also had many servants who did their bidding, while poor people, who could not afford servants, lived in small homes with one or two rooms. Understandably, the pre-Passover chores of the rich were performed by the servants, while the poor, who had only their one or two rooms to clean, a few pieces of furniture, a minimum of utensils, and some clothing, took care of their needs themselves.
In those days, cleaning was hard. Tables were made of raw wood, requiring them to be scrubbed or even to be shaven to ensure that no pieces of food were hidden in the cracks. Earthen or wooden floors also needed to be thoroughly cleaned and scrubbed.
Today, we seem to be caught in a trap. The average modern home is larger than formerly. Furniture, utensils and clothing are much more plentiful. The average home today can compare with the more affluent homes of previous generations. However, we do not have the servants that they had, so that today, all the chores fall on the woman of the home. At the same time she still feels obligated to clean and scrub as they did formerly, even though she has laminated furniture and tiled floors, making this type of cleaning unnecessary.
As a result of this, the pressure of pre-Pesach cleaning has reached unnecessary and overwhelming levels. The housewife often becomes overly nervous, unable to enjoy the holiday joy of Passover and unable to perform the mitzvos and obligations of the Seder night.

Limit Guests at the Pesach Seder This year
important message from former CBA member Dr. Stephanie Haimowitz. FWIW, I have personally received multiple identical accounts from numerous physicians in local hospitals.
Dear Rabbi Rothwachs,
I hope this email find you well and that you and your family are feeling good. I would firstly like to thank you and the entire RCBC for your bulletin to the Bergen County Jewish community regarding social distancing and the closing of the shuls. I know it was not a decision that was made lightly.
