In the meantime, Prime Minister Netanyahu has appointed Minister Aryeh Deri Mona to find solutions that will enable the ultra-Orthodox population and the Arab public to maintain the rules of social remoteness and isolation, while understanding the unique characteristics of their needs.
Deri will lead the process with the NSC (National Security Headquarters). The challenge was placed on Deri in light of the relatively high numbers of patients from these populations as well as the numerous violations of the victim's guidelines.
Deri and his team will try to present solutions for how to keep the isolation in families with children, especially those who live so densely and therefore they cannot actually be kept in isolation. It will also examine the possibility of converting internal institutions to isolation in these sectors. The Prime Minister's Office emphasizes that this is not about isolating a city or a town, but about helping the city's residents who find it difficult to comply.
Minister Deri is pleased to apply and already this afternoon has gone into the beam thickness with extensive staff work in all areas necessary to help fight the spread of the virus in these sectors. In the afternoon, the Director General of the Interior Ministry, Mordechai Cohen, and the top of the Ministry of the Interior toured the city of Bnei Brak, together with senior officials of the Bnei Brak Municipality. Already an isolation center for isolators has been opened at an educational campus in Bnei Brak.
In addition, Minister Deri ordered urgently to seek a Corona Center to exclude them from the city centers. Minister Deri added that in recent days, all of Israel's major rulers are issuing halakhic rulings and demanding the Ministry of Health's instructions. There is even the approval of rabbis of those who do not maintain isolation under the Ministry of Health's instructions to severely denounce it and report it to the competent authorities.
