A glimpse of closure discussions across Israel: In a conversation with senior health officials in the past and in the past, Prime Minister Netanyahu concluded that they oppose total closure, but only those aged 65 and over and those belonging to risk groups

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's talks with several veteran health professors spoke on Monday about his position on the question of imposing a closure on Israeli citizens.

The discussion was held in several rooms at the same time through screens, attended by Professor Zeev Rothstein, Director of Hadassah Hospital, Professor Shlomo Moore Yosef, former CEO of Hadassah and Director of Social Security, Professor Gabi Barash, former CEO of Ichilov Hospital, and Professor Joshua Shemer , Chairman of Assuta's board of directors.

During the talks, Prime Minister Netanyahu concluded that the professors' opinion against imposing a total closure, but only on adults over the age of 65 and people in risk groups. The rest, according to the discussions that are taking place at this time, will be able to return to the normal job market.

Defense Minister Naftali Bennett, Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon, Economy Minister Eli Cohen and Justice Minister Amir Ohana have expressed opposition to imposing a total closure.

The Ministry of Health supported full closure. On the other hand, the experts were in a consensus that the current situation makes sense and should focus more on the older population staying in homes. In addition, there is a consensus among the experts that hundreds of thousands of tests must be reached to bring the economy back to activity. The Ministry of Health objected.
