Very sad. But two babies in ten years? How many babies die in childbirth in a large city over the course of ten years? I would imagine more than two.
If this particular rabbi has a herpes infection, then presumably he should stop doing this. But even there, I’d be curious how many successful circumcisions he performed over the course of ten years.
Mohels don’t have to be rabbis.
“If this particular rabbi has a herpes infection, then presumably he should stop doing this”
How about the use of the mouth in circumsions be stopped period!?
