In a similar vein, can the Lakewood Scoop report as to where socially distance Magillah Liening will be available? I’ll also throw out the idea of a phone number or live-stream of the Magillah being read. I don’t know if it would halachically work and I understand that it is definitely not preferable. However, it should be fine to read along from home assuming it’s being read along from a kosher Magillah.

Anyone can fulfill their obligation by reading from a kosher Megillah, along with a pre-recorded audio clip.
