During the tour, Gamzo said that "dozens of Arab citizens may die as a result of the corona. In fact the message is that out of every 700-800 infected per day there are close to 2% critically ill and of them close to 1% die in Arab society maybe less, 1/2%. "Infected and 4 die. That's how it is, you can not ignore it. Corona is a violent virus and you are wrong if you thought it would end in a smile."
The head of the local council, Rafik Halabi, said during the meeting: "We are no longer considered a red locality. The reason for this is due to the increase in the percentage of inspections and adherence to the guidelines. We currently do not have weddings."
As you may recall, even during a press briefing he held last Thursday, Gamzo referred to the morbidity situation in Arab society and said: "The increase in morbidity in Arab society continues, and I think Arab society needs to prepare well to stop completely with indifference and contempt," he said. I see again the lack of internalization, that a wedding is an infectious event that continues for families, for the locality, and it passes from locality to locality. "
