DR. ZEV ZELENKO, 49, AH
Dr. Zev (Vladimir) Zelenko, a Lubavitcher chossid who served as the primary care provider for the Satmar community in Kiryat Joel, N.Y., and who gained national attention during the covid-19 pandemic for touting unconventional protocols, passed away.
He was 49 years old, and passed away after an extended battle with cancer.
Vladimir Zelenko was born in Kyiv (then, part of Soviet Ukraine), in 1973. His family moved to the US when he was three years old, and settled in Sheepshead Bay neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York City.
Zelenko attended medical school at the State University of New York at Buffalo, earning a Doctor of Medicine degree in 2000.
Dr. Zelenko was a long-time community physician in Kiryas Yoel. During the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, he received national attention for touting unconventional protocols as a treatment for the virus.
“It is with immense sorrow that we announce the passing of our founder Dr. Vladimir “Zev” Zelenko,” Zelenko Labs said in a statement. “Dr. Zelenko was a physician, scientist, and activist for medical rights who touched the lives of millions of people. Some were saved as his role as a doctor, and even more were inspired by his words.”
He is survived by his wife and his eight children.
