City Questions Cir***cision Ritual After Baby Dies


By ANDY NEWMAN
Published: August 26, 2005


A cir***cision ritual practiced by some Orthodox Jews has alarmed city
health officials, who say it may have led to three cases of herpes - one
of
them fatal - in infants. But after months of meetings with Orthodox
leaders,
city officials have been unable to persuade them to abandon the practice.


The city's intervention has angered many Orthodox leaders, and the issue
has
left the city struggling to balance its mandate to protect public health
with the constitutional guarantee of religious freedom.


"This is a very delicate area, so to speak," said Health Commissioner
Thomas R. Frieden.


The practice is known as oral suction, or in Hebrew, metzitzah b'peh:
after removing the foreskin of the *****, the practitioner, or mohel,
sucks the blood from the wound to clean it.


It became a health issue after a boy in Staten Island and twins in
Brooklyn, cir***cised by the same mohel in 2003 and 2004, contracted
Type-1 herpes. Most adults carry the disease, which causes the common
cold sore, but it can be life-threatening for infants. One of the
twins died.


Since February, the mohel, Rabbi Yitzchok Fischer, 57, has been under
court order not to perform the ritual in New York City while the
health department is investigating whether he spread the infection to
the infants.


Pressure from Orthodox leaders on the issue led Mayor Michael R.
Bloomberg and health officials to meet with them on Aug. 11. The
mayor's comments on his radio program the next day seemed meant to
soothe all parties and not upset a group that can be a formidable
voting bloc: "We're going to do a study, and make sure that everybody
is safe and at the same time, it is not the government's business to
tell people how to practice their religion."


The health department, after the meeting, reiterated that it did not
intend to ban or regulate oral suction. But Dr. Frieden has said that
the city is taking this approach partly because any broad rule would
be virtually unenforceable. Cir***cision generally takes place in
private homes.


Dr. Frieden said the department regarded herpes transmission via oral
suction as "somewhat inevitable to occur as long as this practice
continues, if at a very low rate."
