Netanyahu: We could be on way to new restrictions
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has told his cabinet that he fears Israel is headed toward snapping back restrictions, which will happen if its number of cases doubles within 10 days.
“It could be that we are already in this 10-day infection doubling rate. I very much hope not,” he says, according to the Ynet news website.
He defends the decision to delay reopenings of most venues and other places not yet reopened by a week. “What we decided to do was first of all put on the handbrake. We stopped the easements. We’ll check it in the next week.”
