As the whole of the House of Israel gathered in their home for a limited and unprecedented curfew, at the Dan Panorama Hotel in Tel Aviv, the largest order in the world was attended by about 500 celebrants who spent the Passover together and with approval.

The hotel is currently hosting verified Corona patients, so there is no fear that they will infect each other. The arrangement was made only by the patients themselves, when for obvious reasons the hotel staff was not present. All this celebration was funded by the Ministry of Defense, which also finances the rest of the patients' needs during the rest of the day and allows the hotel and its staff to continue to operate these days. An adjoining hall for the ultra-Orthodox company, which seats 60 people, was arranged.

A parallel but smaller order was also held at the Dan Jerusalem Hotel in the presence of 160 people. Other hotels hosting Corona patients were satisfied with order kits distributed to rooms. In contrast to the food that is distributed in the rooms to the rooms, for the first time a fancy hall was allocated for the benefit of the hotel, and round tables were arranged around them with maps. Due to the Ministry of Health's guidelines, the food was still divided into disposable (fancy) dishes and dishes, but there was also a buffet of starters. Each diner received an "order kit," which included everything needed for blessings of order, legend, dome and light drinking.

At the Dan Panorama Tel Aviv one of the patients was Rabbi Reuven Schechter, rabbi of Yeshiva in Kiryat Shmona, and he read the Haggadah from beginning to end. "The atmosphere overall was good. Finally we could all be together without masks, order was very exciting and the food a little less" number one celebrating from the panorama of Tel Aviv. The food was provided by an outside catering company and not by the hotel kitchen, which works during the rest of the day.

Hotel Commander Major Natan Sinik said: "We, at the Home Front, are proud to stand at this complex time and help the citizens of the State of Israel. We are pleased that we have been able to allow patients staying at the hotel to have a proper Passover order, a happy and exciting order. Our strength is our unity, and here at the table of the Seder there were representatives of all the people of Israel. "

Ze'ev Keren, director of the convention center at the Dan Panorama Hotel in Tel Aviv, who was responsible for the event, said that the hotel created a team of 15 people from the hospital: "These people volunteered, and we made a preparatory call on how to arrange the order, because we couldn't be there Physically, there was a man in charge of distributing the food at the buffet and then managing and seating the people and forming groups. The guests then cleared the tables because, according to the Ministry of Health's instructions, the cleaning company could disinfect the place only after two days and only after the hotel employees would come in. "

Keren did not hide his excitement about the special event: "I have been in the hotel industry for over fifty years, and I am used to managing very invested events, but here it was another event, a formative event. The feeling is that we did a mitzvah. Uplift their spirits ”.
