Our communities response to Covid examined halachically:
Agudah: A remarkable change of decades of policy unnoticed by many
Lakewood: Is the Covid Vaads Psak that a shul is מגין ומציל and therefore no need for masks consistent with Halacha?
The multitudes of sick in Monroe: Is there a mitzvah of Hatzala to a community that exhibits reckless behavior?
Belz: Is it justified to risk lives of some to save lives of others?

I'm not sure were you got that in the 1831 cholera epidemic there were only 32k dead worldwide. Per wikipedia there were at least a couple hundred thousand. "Deaths: Unknown; 100,000 in Russia; 100,000 in France; 6,536 in London" In England it seems that close to 30-40% percent if sick died. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1826%E2%80%931837_cholera_pandemic

One criticism of your show. Why is there only one episode per week? Should be at least two or three.
