JERUSALEM (VINnews) — In two separate tragedies which occurred Wednesday morning, two young chareidi children passed away after losing consciousness, apparently while they were asleep.

A five-month-old baby from Tzfat passed away in his sleep. United Hatzalah volunteers summoned to his home attempted to resuscitate him and he was taken to the Sieff hospital nearby but the doctors were forced to declare his death.

In another tragic incident which occurred in Bnei Brak, a 5-year-old girl, Rivka Krauss, lost consciousness in her home. Emergency volunteers arriving at her home performed extensive resuscitation efforts on the girl and she was taken in critical condition to the Sheba-Tel Hashomer hospital, where doctors were forced after a short time to declare her death.

ZAKA volunteers from Tel Aviv accompanied the family and arranged for the body to be released without requiring an autopsy. Rivka A’H will be buried at the Yarkon cemetery at 2 PM.

It is noteworthy that Rashi in Parshas Bereishis says that the word Meoros is missing a letter, since on Wednesdays “they used to pray that Askara should not affect children.” It is unclear what Askara means (some identify it with diptheria) and why it is associated with children, but some commentators explain that the moon spoke Lashon Hara about the sun and was therefore made smaller and the punishment for Lashon Hara according to chazal is Askara. Thus Wednesday is a day which unfortunately is associated with children, who could suffer from this mortal illness.

What the **** does vaxing have to do with this or any tragedy? Why is every tragic death that gets reported have to be covid or vax related? No where in the article does it even mention covid or vax. A 5 month old dying is usually what’s called sids. A 5 year old could be any one of dozens of issues. Including good old fashioned she completed her tafkid and died a misa neshika in her sleep.

Immunizations shot to Covid? The trend is bewildering.

in our community there’s no abuse and no suicides

instead we have an increased rate of people “dyeing in their sleep”

there’s no reason to insinuate this was the case here, I’m not even suggesting anything suspicious in this tragedy.

I’m just making a general observation.

Does anyone know that SIDS deaths dropped when covid hit and kids missed their well visits? Obviously it’s “coincidental” that SIDS deaths went down significantly. I’m not saying they’re all caused by those shots but just know that the vast majority of SIDS are within seven days of a well visit
Wake up people these shots are not for u it’s for $
Now I hope that five year old wasn’t vaccinated but it’s something that should be asked because everyone should publicize all sudden deaths and mention the vaccination status to protect others
