There is no ultra-Orthodox who does not know at least one person who died from Corona - and the sector leaders do not accept responsibility • In the meantime, the ultra-Orthodox are paying the price - but the situation can be changed

A few days ago, a terrible incident occurred at Ichilov Hospital.
The soul machine was disconnected, the medical staff did not pay attention and the late Moshe Harazi died. The hospital's director, Prof. Roni Gamzo, showed up at the studio, shed a tear and accepted responsibility.
This standard is not uniform.
The leaders of the ultra-Orthodox public in the Knesset have hundreds of victims of the damned corona - and they do not show up at the studios, do not accept responsibility, here and there their voice is heard in the call to keep the guidelines and that is it.
Gafni, Litzman and Deri have proven that when something is important to them, they know how to work, they know how to shout.
Litzman has already resigned twice due to train work on Saturday and closed on holidays;
Gafni, a veteran public messenger who knows where to click when needed - has disappeared.
And even Deri, who can really be defined as the responsible adult, fails to sweep, stand out, shout and incite his public against the plague.
They are the mouthpiece of the ultra-Orthodox public when it comes to recruitment, conversion and budgets.
That mouth should be screaming now.
In moments of horror.
The social networks and the Israeli media inflate the responsibility of the ultra-Orthodox public to Corona beyond all proportion.
In the period of an election campaign, there are quite a few stakeholders like Avigdor Lieberman, who want to garner a few votes from this, but we need to put that aside and address what is happening, and disaster is happening.
The ultra-Orthodox person does not need the data of the projector.
He knows them himself.
From his own home, from his neighbors, from the synagogue class and from the community.
Every ultra-Orthodox person knows that there is an acute outbreak, such as has not been the case to date.
There is hardly an ultra-Orthodox house that has not been plagued, no ultra-Orthodox person who does not know has died of coronation.
The cycle of tears, grief and pain is joined every day by orphans, widows and widowers, young and old, mothers and fathers.
It's enough to hear Eli, Rachel's husband who is hospitalized in Beilinson, say in tears, "I have five children at home and I have a new son who is in intensive care at Schneider and I ask the child to know his mother," to stop everything and fight.
It is not clear why this is at all controversial.
A war is going on.
When Scuds were fired into the central area, no one was waiting for a rabbi's instruction, everyone took the children and ran to the police station.
My ultra-Orthodox brethren, it's up to you.
Enter the emergency room, close the door, save your life. Do it now before it's too late.
