As people go back to their shuls, after being vaccinated or post-Corona, the minyan is finding it increasingly difficult to consistently get the daily minyan.
This is officially the end of the Corona era.
Or it might be.
As long as we don't have any major outbreak in the near future.
We are now entering the post-COVID19 era.
I have done my part to help the world move on, by vaccinating. Hopefully we will all be safe and healthy, in Israel and around the world, as we move forward in getting back to some semblance of normal, social, lives.
This is anecdotal and not a scientific study, but from what I hear about other outdoor minyanim also petering out, it seems the concern many had that people won't go back to shul after Corona and after taking a liking to the convenience and informality of outdoor minyanim was unfounded. It seems people are going back to their shuls.

Yes, but moving indoors excludes the [as yet unvaccinated] teenagers, those who we are most concerned about "not going back". In our community, at least, minyanim remain right outside the shul so the youth aren't excluded.
ReplyDeleteAs the weather gets warmer, and since we're still restricted to limited numbers indoors, I think many outdoor minyanim will continue for another few months.
ReplyDeleteWe stopped having Shachris every day, but still have a daily Ma'ariv - and have no problem getting a Minyan for all Tefilos on Shabbos. There are still a bunch of people who are not yet comfortable davening inside, and with Shuls limited to 50% capacity, there's still a need for additional places for people to Daven.
