Rav Chaim Kanievsky and his family have received threats from anti-vaxxers due to his stance in support of vaccinating children ages 5-11 to protect against Covid.

The threats have been made via telephone, emails and letters.

According to sources, perpetrators have even tried to break into Rav Chaim’s home on Rechov Rashbam in Bnei Brak.

Israeli Prime Minister Naftoli Bennett weighed in on the threats online, calling them “unfathomable.”

Meir Gross, from Rav Chaim’s household, remarked, “Some people are trying to intimidate the Sar HaTorah and his family to change his decision regarding vaccines, but he is nevertheless of the opinion that it is necessary to get vaccinated.”

  1. You are missing the point.

    This is a horrific bizayon of a Gadol Hador together with the desecration of Rav Shteymans kever.

    Doesn’t matter which extremist group is responsible.

    • and putting out statements in the name of R’ Chaim that are fake (and potentially very dangerous to kids) is not bizayon haTorah??? We in America should all make a macha’a against these media outlets that spread propaganda videos that are a bizayon to true daas Torah and how a shayla is really asked. BTW R’ Chaim never took the covid vaccine.

  2. The protests are against certain members of the family. Not against R’ Chaim, שליט”א. That’s a misleading title to the article.
