    2. It's still a very high number despite the long weekend, especially when compared to the numbers from the surrounding towns. There is a real problem going on here and I wonder how many of these positives are actually breakthrough cases of those who were vaccinated.

    3. Why do we care about infection rates?
      How about hospitalization rates.
      Death (ח"ו) rates.
      Infection rates don't necessarily mean that it will lead to hospitalizations. Most are either vaxxed or immune, the covid symptoms are very mild.
      We need to stop with the hysteria, it's not April 2020 anymore

      Delete
    4. Because even one death caused by something preventable is one too many. It's a terrible feeling, not being able to breathe!

      Delete
    5. My point is that if there are none or very few hospitalizations we can assume that the once very deadly virus has no turned into something much more manageable similar to the seasonal flu.
      I'm sure that if we tested for the flu we would have very high positive rates

      Delete
    6. There is no asymptomatic flu! If you have it, you know it! COVID is different. That's why regular testing is necessary for everyone!

      Delete
    7. It's already been proven over and over that covid does not transmit from an asymptomatic person.

      Why the lies??

      Delete
    8. 1 out of every 3 people with Flu are Asymptomatic https://hhma.org/can-the-flu-be-asymptomatic/

      Delete
    9. Asymptomatic COVID and FLU can be transmitted! We must constantly test for both!

      Delete
    10. Recent epidemiologic, virologic, and modeling reports support the possibility of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) transmission from persons who are presymptomatic (SARS-CoV-2 detected before symptom onset) or asymptomatic (SARS-CoV-2 detected but symptoms never develop).

  6. This statement from LSTA is insulting and ignores the "route" of the problem which is the buses are in a rush to get to their destination so they can pick up another route. It's all about getting as many runs done which brings in more money. The accidents are also not always the drivers fault but there are both good and bad drivers. It is up to the company to give better training to give incentives for drivers to stay with either more money or generally make them feel good by other means. Stop putting the blame on social media the websites need clicks and will show the bus accidents, but let's not forget they are transporting our precious cargo. Safety first before profits

  14. The LSTA should put post all the complaints that they receive. Oh I forgot, they are a private entity so you can't even do an opera request.
    How about all the bus companies fund the police department to field the calls? Oh I know why not, because they won't have drivers...

  24. I just called my sons yeshiva to ask who works in the kitchen and what hashgocha they have and the memahel said I'm the first parent to call him and ask that question. How can that be a yeshiva with way over a thousand Talmidim and noone asked anything about food that is being served to our children. And to my sorrow the menahel answered me that no they don't have any hashgocha and no they don't have any yiddin working in the kitchen just sometimes a yid goes in to check. So i told that I'm speaking on behalf of all the Talmidim how can that be that no yid so he said yes its not needed we only have kosher food in the kitchen. What's going on is he crazy is he living in a shell somewhere who is watching milchig to fleishig.

  25. Another fake letter on the poop trying to portray to be against Phil Murphy but even a two year old can see through it as a attempt to pressure the Murphy campaign to give some askanim what they want in exchange for the Lakewood block vote. The letter is professionally written .
