A group of senior strictly Orthodox rabbis in North-West London have issued a notice encouraging community members to be vaccinated against coronavirus.
The JC understands they were asked by local doctors to speak out to help counter the spread of misinformation about the dangers of the vaccine.
“Halacha obligate[s] us to care for our health and the health of those around us,” they wrote.
They, therefore, strongly urged those eligible to access the vaccine “to do so upon the advice of their GP and/or personal physician”.
