Outdoor Minyanim Become The Norm In Crown Heights

by CrownHeights.info

Crown Heights residents are getting into the swing of social distancing with outdoor minyanim, sometimes spanning a full block.

While some minyanim take place with each person standing on separate porches, others get together outside a shul and stand on a sidewalk.

Social distancing has been touted as a proven method of slowing virulent illnesses, slowing the spread of the illness and lightening the load on the strained medical system.

Hatzalah of Crown Heights published guidelines to help the community understand the illness, and protect their families.
