Yom Kippur starts in 12 days. How can it be done safely?
I am not an expert, but a Jewish friend tells me ppl pray and sing for 3h in a synagogue one evening and 10 more hours the next day.
That's a recipe for disaster.

As we know, lots of ppl confined for a long time in the same place, talking, singing, praying is the perfect breeding ground for the coronavirus.
It led to 1000s of cases early on in SK. How 75% of a choir in Washington State got infected early on.

There are dozens and dozens of outbreaks that started in churches. the massive Navajo Nation one is a good example.

So what can we do?
[3/5]
1. Do it outdoors. I am not Jewish so I don't know the meaning and importance, but I do know the risk becomes substantially higher indoors
2. Use a mask all the time
And if you can't do it outdoors:
3. Limit the # of ppl substantially
4. Don't mix ppl from different households
5. Cut the length of time dramatically
6. Ventilate heavily
7. If you can, do quick tests to everybody
Anything else I'm missing?
