Netanyahu’s health improves, but doctor urges more rest

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu feels better, but his physician, Dr. Zvi Berkowitz, recommends “several additional days of rest,” the Prime Minister’s Office says.

The prime minister was taken to a Jerusalem hospital on Tuesday evening after suffering from a high fever and coughing. He was discharged several hours later after undergoing a series of tests. Doctors found he was suffering from a viral infection.
