is this a joke? Aren't you the one spreading misinformation? it is well known that haredi disregard all manner of reasonable health recommendations

including transmission of oral herpes to babies by oral suction (no I'm not using a euphemism)

>200 Jewish K-12 schools in Brooklyn

how many haredi children go to k-12 schools instead of yeshiva? this article puts attendance at 160,000

https://www.jta.org/2020/01/13/united-states/new-york-is-try...

given that there are only ~2 million haredi I think that's quite a large proportion. and no yeshiva is not the same as k-12 orthodox school (same article explicitly distinguishes).
