The National Student and Youth Council is furious at the Ministry of Health's demand to close the education system.
According to the students, the solution to the problem of infection in schools is to vaccinate the teaching staff and increase enforcement, but instead the Ministry of Health wants to "abuse the education system again."
However, it is important to note that according to data from the Ministry of Health, the age group in which infection occurs at rates that are significantly higher than the other age groups in the population is 10-19 years old.
"In all the chaos that the State of Israel has gone through, there is no system that has been more deeply abused than the education system," the student council writes. "Now the Ministry of Health is working to lock us students back home - just before the winter matriculation. All this, on the mistaken assumption that students are the biggest focus of illness, when all the data say that the sky opened with the Ministry of Health permit is the reason. Holidays and flights are probably more important than education. "Open-air entertainment is also important, because there is no doubt that shopping is also more important than education. The situation is difficult for everyone, but we will not be able to abandon a critical front like education."
