The Israel Defense Forces’ top medical officer has been diagnosed with the coronavirus, the military says.
The officer, Brig. Gen. Elon Glasberg, apparently caught the virus from one of his children, who had received three doses of the vaccine, the IDF says.
“He feels well and will continue to work from his home until the end of his convalescence,” the military says, stressing that his illness will not affect the day-to-day functioning of the IDF Medical Corps.
