At Sheba Hospital, the institution that was in charge of treating patients with the Corona virus, it issued extraordinary instructions to all hospital doctors to shave the elderly until 8pm today, for the optimal fit of a 95-N protective mask.

"The medical center's treatment of the corona virus is rising, given the scope of patients coming to the medical center," wrote Avi Baruch, the hospital's deputy director of administrative affairs. "In order to protect you, the following medical or direct contact with patients (carriers or suspects) has been decided as part of a status assessment on shaving beards designed to allow wearing of a 95-N mask, in a manner that is effective and able to protect you as required."

Dr. Ze'ev Feldman, the deputy chairman of the State Physicians' Organization and director of the Sheba Pediatric Neurology Unit, uploaded a few days ago to his Facebook page "Before" and after "Shaving the beard, and wrote" are preparing for the war in Corona. We split into teams that do not meet to prevent contagion, and some had to shave off the elders to allow for good fitting of protective gear. We are preparing to win! "

A similar directive issued an MDA for its employees dealing with corona specimens in its homes, and even assumed that only those who did not have a beard would be able to protect themselves as needed and engage in sampling.
