Circumcision, Talmud Style
In Orthodox Jewish circumcisions, the man who performs the ceremony 1) cuts the baby's foreskin with a knife (milah), 2) rips the membrane with his fingernail (peri'ah), and 3) applies his mouth to the baby's bleeding penis and sucks blood from the wound (mezizah). These procerdures are laid down by Jewish law. What are the risks of infectious disease for the baby, the man who circumcises the baby, and to society at large?
