The government COVID-19 cabinet is slated to convene this evening at 6 p.m. to weigh new measures to spread the rising coronavirus caseload in Israel.
The ministers, who met last night without making any decisions, are expected to discuss size limits on gatherings, expanding the Green Pass requirement — proof of vaccination or recovery from COVID-19 — to the entire commerce sector, and ending subsidies of antigen tests for unvaccinated children.
Yesterday, 1,306 Israelis tested positive for COVID, after 1,017 tested positive on Sunday and 876 on Friday.
