Despite two statements in the Knesset's Constitution, Law and Justice Committee, according to which rehabilitative patients can continue to receive treatment even during the closure, Prof. Itamar Grotto, Deputy Director General of the Ministry of Health, has not yet issued a letter clarifying the conditions that will allow rehabilitative patients to continue exercising in gyms, studios and pools. A
letter sent by the chairman of the Knesset's small and medium-sized business lobby, MK Oded Forer, to Prof. Grotto about two weeks ago, reads: "Closing of gyms, Pilates and / or pools where rehabilitative treatments are performed is like the sentencing of many patients. For whom rehabilitative treatments are essential to life.
Therefore, I would like to ask you to find an outline for the opening of gyms, studios and rehabilitative swimming pools that will allow rehabilitative patients to continue receiving relevant treatment, in order to save lives and prevent aggravation of an existing health condition. "

The business owners' organization in the sports and fitness industry welcomed MK Forer's initiative, but the organization has difficulty understanding why the letter of instructions that Prof. Grotto pledged to the committee has not yet been issued. Yaron Sela, chairman of the organization and owner of the Great Shape chain, said: A misguided axiom is accompanied by a demonization campaign, as if in the gyms and studios there is a mass contagion in Corona and as if the fitness and sports industry is a leisure and recreation industry. The Ministry of Health must find an outline that will prevent corona infection during exercise, and at the same time allow, at the very least, rehabilitative patients to continue rehabilitative activities in the gyms and studios they coordinate, to disseminate health and important tools in the recovery and recovery processes of many rehabilitative patients.
Paralympic medalist Keren Leibowitz added: "At a meeting of the Constitution Committee, I twice received oral approval to continue operating the Pilates equipment studio in my possession, where many people with disabilities train.
Now, my patients and I are looking forward to receiving official approval from the Ministry of Health as promised by MKs and Prof. Grotto.
We are not engaged in leisure and recreational activities, we are engaged in saving lives, preventing regression in health and maintaining a healthy longevity.
"Just as no one thinks of closing hospitals and health funds, so it does not make sense to close my studio, which is explicitly, every day, about saving lives."
Ministry of Health response
"The Ministry of Health approved rehabilitative activities in facilities for the disabled and even clarified the issue. Beyond that, there is also an intention to approve other rehabilitative activities in facilities intended for people in need of medical rehabilitation. There is no intention to approve activities in all gyms, as this is contrary to government restrictions ".
