Edelstein: Contact tracing efforts ‘not ideal’

Prime Minister Netanyahu says that he’s working on legislation that will cut the bureaucracy needed to enact more restrictions.

Health Minister Yuli Edelstein also speaks, saying that the numbers are “very worrying.”

He says there have been 10 new serious cases today, though his ministry has yet to release new infection tallies.

‘The situation is not ideal,” he says of contact tracing efforts, adding that students are being enlisted to help out, but there will never be enough people.
