Letter from Rashkebahag Maran Sar HaTorah Shlita, about chizuk as a result of the Corono Sickness

BS"D

Adar, 5780

With regard to the concern about being infected with the Corona sickness.

Every one should strengthen himself to be careful not to speak loshon hora and rechilus, as it says in Erechin (15), "He separated a man from his wife, so the Torah said, `He will sit alone.'" Also to strengthen the middah of anovoh (humility) and to be ma'avir al middosov (being unusually forgiving and lenient) as the Rosh writes in his commentary at the end of Horiyos.

And everyone who strengthens himself, the merit of this will protect him and his family so that not one of them will become sick.

(signed) Chaim Kanievsky
