Together with my friend Education Minister Yoav Galant, we will try to convince cabinet members that all students must return to school. Losing an entire generation of children. "
The Corona Cabinet unanimously approved the latest transportation regulations, in accordance with the professional positions of the Ministries of Transportation, Health and National Social Security to increase the percentage of occupancy on buses to 75%.
The Minister of Economy and Industry, Amir Peretz, demanded in the Corona cabinet to approve the pilot for the closed malls today, and to set a date for it to begin soon.
He said, "For several days now, there have been lengthy discussions between the Ministries of Economy, Health, Finance, Justice and the National Security Council on how to carry out the pilot.
There is no reason to wait for the hearings to end and then set a date.
I will demand that the pilot be approved today, and set a start date. "As stated, the Ministry of Health is expected to support the pilot.
At the same time, and while there has been an increase in the morbidity of the corona virus in Israel, the Ministry of Health estimates today that there will be no need for a closure on Hanukkah, as long as the morbidity does not increase by then.
Under the direction of the Prime Minister, the Magen Israel headquarters and the National Security Council began preparing for Hanukkah and the Christian holidays.
A senior health official estimated: "Our direction is not a closure, but a continuation of the current situation. It depends on how we reach Hanukkah."
However, this issue is not expected to come up at the Corona Cabinet meeting that will begin shortly.
The senior also noted with regard to the trend of stability in the disease and said: "A red line of one thousand or two thousand infections per day has not been defined. This is a combination of the numbers together with the infection coefficient R. If the rate of increase in disease is slow - it may be possible to withdraw with more than two thousand. "Very - we may have to stop as early as 1,000 - 1,500."
He further noted that "the opening of grades 1-4 caused an increase in morbidity but in a moderate and mild manner."
