The details were announced after 14 Israelis were added Sunday evening to the list of those who have contracted the coronavirus, including the first in the country whose source of infection was unknown, bringing the total number of cases to 39. The details of three of them were released Sunday evening.

Seven of the new patients returned from European countries, and six came into contact with sick individuals in Israel.

One of the new patients, a man in his 40s from central Israel, was also added to the list, though the Health Ministry said that it was not sure how he had contracted the virus. The Magen David Adom emergency service later said the infected man was a medic.

On Monday, the Foreign Ministry announced that a worker at Israel’s embassy in Athens had been diagnosed with the coronavirus and appears to have passed the pathogen to two family members, bringing the number of infected Israelis to 42.

On Sunday evening, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said at a press conference that if Israel decides to expand the list of countries from which returning travelers will be required to enter home quarantine for 14 days, the directive will cover the entire world, adding that a decision on the matter would be made in the coming hours.

Despite expectation that Netanyahu would announce a directive against passengers returning from the US, or at least particular states where the highest number of cases have been documented, he avoided doing so.

Health Minister Yaakov Litzman said Monday that he expected the quarantine rules to be expanded later in the day.
