One solution has been the livestreaming of online services. The UK Masorti rabbis were asked if streaming Shabbat services could be allowed on an exceptional basis and as a temporary response to the crisis. Their response was that streaming on Shabbat is not permitted, but that other solutions are encouraged: streaming weekday services – including saying kaddish without the presence of a physical minyan, study sessions, Friday afternoon Kabbalat Shabbat services and Pesach sedarim (the prohibition against using electricity on festivals is less stringent than on Shabbat).
