This is not the first time the Minister of Defense has stated that he is interested in the health file. Two days ago, during an internet news conference, he hinted again that his party was interested in this case. In that regard, Bennett referred to the State of Israel with the Corona virus, saying that "the Corona has been well curbed in Israel. There are between 80-90 breaths and 2600 beds for breaths. We have huge leaks to open the economy." As for the tests, he argued that "a test set should be set up for a new outbreak in winter."

He said: "As of today, we are not in the direction of entering the government. This means that we can be in opposition, we will support outsiders in every good move of the government and strongly oppose any bad move. We have come to influence, and in our view the health portfolio is an influential portfolio with many powers."
