Rabbi Elimelech Firer on the Covid Vaccine

In Response to Many Inquiries

Rabbi Firer
3

I was recently asked by the gedolei ume'orei hador shlita, to investigate thoroughly the vaccination offered against the Corona virus. After I looked into it extensively with the appropriate responsibility, and I laid out my conclusions to Maranan Verabonon shlita, Maran Sar HaTorah Rebbe Chaim Kanievsky shlita, Maran HaRosh Yeshiva Rebbe Gershon Edelstein shlita, Maran Rosh Hayeshiva Chacham Shalom Cohen shlita, I hereby announce in their name and with their consent:

1. Whoever can be inoculated — it is correct to do so. (Based on the testing that was performed properly and with all the parameters that are accepted and usual in the medical world it was demonstrated that there is no danger in taking the vaccination.) However, women in the pre-birth period should consult with a doctor.

2. Those who suffer from any sort of allergy, should consult with their family physician about getting the vaccination under medical supervision.

3. Since the tests were performed on those aged 16 and above, young people up to the abovementioned age should not get vaccinated at this time.

With the blessing of "Vehasirosi machalah mikirbecha",

Avrohom Elimelech Firer

Chairman of Ezra Lemarpeh
