Hagai added: "A re-examination is always worth doing - but lawlessness and removal from the waist is not a work plan."

He further noted that the Medical Federation's Corona Experts Forum is expected to convene in the coming days to discuss the issue of isolations and formulate clear recommendations.

"One must act with no common sense and in a responsible manner - not with pulls from the waist that could do much more harm than good," he said.
