That's fine, just give them all a note to say they will be denied access to medical treatment if they get C19 and make that public.

Not an isolated incident:

https://www.thejc.com/news/uk/chief-...ation-1.511073

The organiser of what police called “a large party” at a synagogue in Hackney last Saturday are also facing a £10,000 fine.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan...e%20borough%22.

The mayor of Hackney, Philip Glanville, said he was "deeply disappointed" that the wedding party had taken place, despite "the number of lives that have already been lost in the Charedi community and across the borough".

He added: "Unfortunately, similar events have taken place even at this venue before and we need to be really clear how unacceptable it is. We will be meeting with the Rabbinate and our community partners over the coming days to see how we can prevent further incidents of this nature."

It was on BBC News this morning that the old headmaster (one of their Rabbis) of the school where this wedding was held, died of Covid 19 last year. You would have thought that they would have had more sense knowing that.

It's time they fined all the guests at these events, not just the organisers.

As Voltaire might say:

Dans ce pays ravagé par la maladie, il serait bon d'emprisonner un organisateur de parti de temps en temps pour en décourager les autres.

Re: Covid: 400-person wedding party in Stamford Hill broken up by police

As much as I understand that a wedding is a celebration, when you get down to brass tacks, I thought it was about a couple wanting to start a life together .

I don't know about you all, but when I got married, I just want to get married. I sure didn't want to wait very long, and beyond that first pew, I couldn't have cared less who was there.

All you need is a minister, priest, or justice of the peace. A celebration, if desired, can come later.

Nowhere in the rule books does it say you need a crowd.

Fine 'em and quarantine 'em.

According to today's DM, the number of peeps involved in said wedding party was around 150 not 400+ as first reported yesterday. Either way, I think every one attending should be fined a goodly wedge.
