Meanwhile, the Ministry of Health this morning updated the corona virus morbidity data in Israel. According to the data, the number of new patients yesterday (from midnight to midnight) was 714. Also today, from midnight to 11:00 am, about 121 new infections were diagnosed. The total number of patients is 24. There are 7096 active patients.

For all these mines, Prime Minister Netanyahu and Coruna Cabinet Ministers received the recommendation of Education Minister Yoav Galant last night to open the schools of great freedom for kindergarten children and first-graders. As part of the changes that will be introduced to the schools of great freedom: Contrary to the original plan, each group will average an average of 28 students, compared to 35. The government ministers also approved the schools for the big freedom tonight, and the holding of remote exams in higher education.  

Also, more activities will be moved to the open space as much as possible. Even as part of the changes made by Minister Glant, educational institutions will use the infrastructure of the adult strata - which do not take part in the School of Great Freedom - in order to more widely disseminate students in the various facilities.
