  1. What a fabulous idea Dr. Roberts had. He has such a zechus of being mehana so many people. Looking forward to another great chol hamoed activity.

  2. we are not going to be home for pesach and my kids are devastated that they are going to miss “cops and roberts” carnival. (yes! that’s really what they call it!)

  3. Proportional there are more people vaccinated and therefore thankfull to be attendees but I wonder the hundred or so people that aren’t able to come since they aren’t vaccinated if they will be able to express their feelings too and be approved by tls mederator.
    They may truly feel missing out from this selective chesed event.

  4. Hopefully the rain will wash away the germs and viruses so the people vaccinated won’t be affected by the wreck less irresponsible actions by those that don’t get vaccinated. Enjoy the carnival!

  5. i wonder how many people decided to vax after seeing the wonderful shows line up !! the doc should be gebentched for doing this ! amen

  6. Thankfully everyone there will be vaccinated & won’t be spreading dangerous diseases indoors.I don’t know of any other safe place to go this chol hamoed.

    A vaccinated family tolerant of those who don’t vaccinate.

  7. Maybe they can vax AT the carnival!
    Btw to the one that asked its for boys and girls mixed.
    Just curious which halls they are using?

  8. We’ve always appreciated dr. Roberts great generosity on chol hamoed. Would Dr. Roberts please make a carnival exclusively for the non vaccinated population as well ?

  9. I would like to come to the event, however until I get clarification about whether flu vaccine is in his requirements, I prefer to stay away from a chashash gezel. If anyone heard from him either way please share.

  10. Hi Mordechai, I share your concern and as a responsible yid concerned for my neshoma and the neshomos of my children how could I involve my family in an engagement where there is a serious concern of chashash gezel. We aren’t all flu vaccinated and it’s most likely that I won’t be getting answered on this before the carnival begins, and anyways I may be best off finding another activity then to partake in a event that was the catalyst for so much divisiveness and hurt, (intentional, unintentional, with purpose, or whatever..).

  11. And avada I would ad that I’m not alone in a catagory of people that have a confusion of opinions and feelings about this whole no non Vax attending thing. Ultimately when there is confusions on matters in my life, be it on a matter or about a person, I look up to the boss and wait for a sighn.

  12. Quite frankly in this Yom tov of complete emuna I’m not exactly shaken a iota from my principles I stand on and believe in regarding vaccines, and certainly somone making a carnival isn’t going to make me waver a bit. Upgeret.
