The hassle of speed tests for children, attacks for just 24 hours, has left many orphaned attractions over the weekend, with their managers reporting a dramatic drop of up to 70% in the number of visitors.
Avi Edri, CEO of the Cinema City complexes, told Israel Today that "the cinemas are empty, it is a kind of voluntary closure.
I'm surprised that we have put up speed testing complexes in all of our theaters.
We usually sell 600-500 tickets and have only sold 250, not including any more cancellations.
There is no reason for people to be afraid to come.
I hope that during the week people will understand that the cinemas are very safe. "

Yaron Sela, chairman of the organization of business owners in the field of fitness and owners of the Great Shape chain, added: "Killed the country industry, swimming pools and fitness clubs. Families arrived who performed the tests. The process for the children takes about ten minutes, for the answer you have to wait up to about 20 minutes. The little kids are crying - and the people are coming home. In fact, they closed our businesses. This is a 75% decrease in country clubs throughout the country. "
Dr. Ophir Miller, chairman of the board of the Attractions Association, reinforced this and said that there has been a decrease of up to 70% in the number of visitors. "Of all the industries covered by the green label, we are the only ones where the majority of our target audience is children who cannot be vaccinated, and parents avoid invasive testing for a one-time visit to the attraction. We protest against discrimination without epidemiological logic. We allow national parks to be open, while From attractions with the same characteristics, that each sin is privately owned, require to meet unreasonable and impossible standards.For the state, a visit to the closed stalactite cave and zoo can not hurt, but recreation in a ropes park, where solitary activity in the open air, is dangerous. "The justification for this or to tell the whole truth out loud. This is a closure for all intents and purposes, and we demand compensation from the state in accordance with the course courses."
