NYC rabbis will continue to spread herpes to infants despite two deaths

I had one of those singular WHAT. THE. FUCK. moments back when I first heard about this ritual.

But here's the response of the Orthodox rabbis who perform it:

Rabbi David Niederman, executive director of the United Jewish Organization of Williamsburg, said no one will comply with the law, even if it’s passed.


“For the government to force a rabbi who’s practicing a religious act to tell his congregants it’s dangerous is totally unacceptable,” Niederman told The Post.


“You’re forcing the mohel and the parent to sign a piece of paper that contradicts their religious convictions.”


Niederman said there’s no substantive evidence linking herpes and the religious ritual.
