Tonight, the government approved in a telephone poll to require isolation in a motel for all returnees from South Africa, the United Arab Emirates, Brazil and Zambia.

The decision will take effect tonight at 1 p.m.

At the same time, it was decided to extend the obligation of isolation in a hotel for two weeks for anyone returning from any country in the world, unless he agreed to be tested upon entering the country, and undertook to carry out a further inspection after nine days.



During the month of December, with the discovery of the British Corona mutation, all returnees from abroad were required to enter upon their landing at Ben Gurion Airport for isolation in hotels.

The order was later revoked with the decision to require corona tests at Ben Gurion Airport. Health Minister Yuli Edelstein then instructed his office staff to remove the regulation as soon as possible: "Returns from abroad from all countries, subject to corona testing."



Over the weekend, four more cases of the South African corona mutation were discovered in the Ministry of Health's Central Virus Laboratory, using a flooring process.

A total of 12 cases of this mutation have been identified in Israel so far.

The four new cases were detected in people who came from the United Arab Emirates and were positive at the first examination at Ben Gurion Airport.
