(ANSAmed) - TEL AVIV, JANUARY 02 - "The storm is coming, already in these days. Cases will double, then double again.
Already in the near future we will have tens of thousands of infections a day". This was the warning received today by Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, in the weekly session of the Council of Ministers.
"Our goal - he added - does not change: to allow the maximum possible functioning of the economy, and to protect those of us who are weaker. '' Bennett specified that Israel makes use of the experience gained in parallel in other countries, including the United States and Great Britain.
Yesterday the infections of Covid were 4,197, 4.57% of the tests carried out. The seriously ill rose to 110.
In recent days in Israel, long queues have been registered in many centers set up by the health authorities for tampons.
Health Minister Nitzan Horowitz anticipated that the stations will be increased, but he also expressed the fear that in the face of the imminent spread of infections not even this intervention will be able to meet the request.
