"Contain the dead": The government makes noises of work - but drags us to closure

The pompous announcement of new recommendations to the Corona Cabinet was received with disappointment by the Ministry of Health.

After Prof. Ash publicly expressed the ministry's demands, Bennett was pushed into a corner and forced to declare vague and meaningless steps.

At the most critical moment for the fight against the plague, the gap between the government and the professionals reaches its peak

Health Ministry Director General Prof. Nachman Ash has put Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and the ministers in a corner that will have a hard time getting out of it. Barbibay, and removed them from the table in internal discussions. the move of the Ministry of Health demonstrated the growing gap between the government and senior officials entrusted with the health and public safety.

after the announcement of the fire, the prime minister had to issue a statement of his own, and to clarify what the schedule of the Cabinet of sources, but if Take a good look at the announcement that came out - there are more easing than restrictions: 6,000 verified a day, more than 350 critically ill, dozens die every day and the government has actually decided to facilitate and circumvent all the ministry's recommendations.

The purple character, a laundered term for restricting crowds, determines how many people can be in a closed space at the same time, whether at a show or in a mall.

These are the most severe restrictions imposed just before closing the economy.

As far as the Ministry of Health is concerned, there is no choice but to impose them, but as far as the Ministry of Economy and the Prime Minister are concerned, there is probably more room for experimentation and wonder.

Also, although it was decided to apply the green mark to all ages and everywhere, except for trade for which there is a legal problem - in the announcement the ages were 3-0 without exception.

Epidemiologically it is known that even at these ages it is possible to catch and be infected and even be a distributor, so the exception is related to the high cost of quick tests and the difficult decision for finance officials to allow free tests until age 12. That is, despite the pompous announcement there is actually relief in guidelines.

Vague restrictions.

At the end of Bennett's post, Fort about another restriction, which was written quite vaguely - some would say that deliberately to dismiss it.

It reads: "It was further decided to recommend that at events in private homes and the like (where no green label applies) a gathering limit will be set as follows: in a closed place - up to 50 people, in an open place - up to 100 people."

Ostensibly, the restriction will prevent a gathering at private events, but the vast majority of events involving more than 50 participants do not take place in private homes, but in businesses that have a green mark without this restriction.

It is possible that the same restriction is aimed at the mass meals on the upcoming Tishrei holidays, but if we are closed during this period, it will no longer be relevant in any case.

There is disappointment in the corridors of the Ministry of Health, but it is claimed that perhaps with the help of the latest exception, they could at least raise the issue of the purple mark - which has not been possible for them so far at cabinet meetings.

Thus, we come to another discussion in the Corona Cabinet as the gap between expert recommendations and the intentions of decision makers grows.

Ministers will continue to talk about closure as a last resort, but will do nothing to prevent it with the help of softer restrictions such as restricting gatherings.

The high price paid in human life and workplaces following government decisions is currently difficult to assess.

We are in a very critical moment, but even when all the red lights are flashing - the decision makers have so far refused to take responsibility, and in the meantime we are being called to "contain the dead".
