It is an Obligation for Everyone to Vaccinate Their Sons and Daughters • The Righteous Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a Issues a Public Call
Due to the high incidence of measles, especially in the Jerusalem area, and after, unfortunately, three infants from our community passed away because they were not vaccinated against the measles epidemic. Our teacher, Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a, issues a public call clarifying his clear opinion: that everyone must vaccinate their sons and daughters from the age of six months, as per the words of our holy Rebbe.
Below is the full letter:
