Some government ministers and senior doctors are irresponsibly pressuring to return to routine soon • Without closure and restrictions, there may be a catastrophe here that will be a cry for generations
Israel is in a state of health emergency and the corona is hitting us very hard, non-stop, with the morbidity figures reaching almost 10,000 new verified per day only growing, and with them the numbers of critically ill, respirated and dead patients.

And although Israel is in a medical-war emergency, we now look like a country preoccupied with the good news that it is unwilling to hear: the urgent necessity to remain under significant closure for quite some time and the necessity to continue to impose severe restrictions on the entire country long after the holidays.
This is when again some government ministers and senior doctors, including some of the most prominent and well-publicized public health doctors, are irresponsibly pressuring and urging to return quickly to routine.
Without austerity and austerity and lasting restrictions there could be here, God forbid, a terrible catastrophe that will be a cry for generations as it has been in the first wave in countries and cities like New York, Spain, Italy, Belgium and Brazil.
Even so, the situation in Israel is already very difficult when about 1,600 people died in the Corona War, and in stark contrast to what some doctors and media people in the "Corona deniers cult" say, most of them Israelis died just because of the virus.
Most of them could have lived for many more years even though they were sick even before the corona in other diseases, which worsened precisely after they became infected.
These things arise not only from conversations with senior doctors who have been treating the most severe corona patients since the onset of the epidemic, but also from a survey conducted at the Clalit Health Fund's central research institute, a report reported on television yesterday by Prof. Ran Blitzer And to the public as a whole, despite its urgent critical importance to the information and consciousness of us all.
The situation of corona patients in Israel is also very difficult in hospitals, although some senior officials of the Ministry of Health, senior doctors and hospital administrators are constantly engaged in scandalous and unforgivable blurring and concealment of the situation in their media interviews.
The congestion in the corona wards is extremely severe and in part is defined by them as "catastrophic and life-threatening immediately."
Even if there are actually additional and available hospital beds and respirators, there is a very critical and severe shortage of skilled medical and nursing staffs who can handle the difficult situation.
The medical treatment of critically ill patients in a new disease such as corona, which is still much more hidden than visible, is so complex that even today senior doctors have no doubt that it is far from the reasonable treatment that could have been given if there had not been such a flood.
The current situation is accelerating the deaths of critically ill patients.
The problem is not only the medical treatment of the critically ill, but also the inferno that patients and family members have to go through under the unbearable burden of corona diseases.
Yesterday, Gali Tzahal was interviewed on the program of the Marciano Foundation and Udi Segal, two family members of Corona patients who unfortunately died of the disease. They told not only about the unbearable loss, but that the hospitals did not answer them for hours and days. critical.
They also said that they were not allowed to say goodbye to their loved ones in their last hours.
Beyond the fact that this is a blatant violation of the guidelines of the Ministry of Health, it is another sign of the unbearable heavy burden and the human inferno that dozens of Israelis and their families are now going through here every day.
In the face of all this, the weakness of the top management of the Ministry of Health stands out, which repeatedly fails in the way it speaks, explains and addresses the public, and according to statements and statements made by some ministry officials, there is concern that there may again be A routine that will quickly lead to a renewed catastrophe.
Even the remarks made yesterday by Prof. Roni Gamzo, the Corona commissioner, did not in any way reflect the severity of the human and moral health crisis in which Israel finds itself.
As at the first press conference when he was appointed to the post, he focused on the new nationals and chose not to say anything about the dead - those coronation victims whose number of corrupt actions and coronation restrictions on an entire country is reduced to reduce their numbers.
