Health Ministry official: 'The danger hasn't passed, don't become complacent'

[Arutz 7] - Health Ministry Director-General Moshe Bar Siman Tov on Saturday night called on Israelis to keep the coronavirus restrictions and not become complacent due to the eased lockdown.

"We are increasing the return to routine in the wake of the coronavirus epidemic," he said. "As always, our ability to succeed in the new stage depends only on us. If we adhere to the three rules - masks, distance, and hygiene - I believe we will be able to integrate routine with preventing the spread of the virus."

"Don't be complacent. I hear the voices that are saying that we exaggerated, but look around. Belgium, a country similar in size to Israel, has seen nearly 7,000 deaths. New York State, approximately twice the size of Israel, has seen over 21,700 deaths, and there are many more examples. We are happy that this is not the situation in Israel, and that's mostly thanks to the fact that we all kept the rules.

Prudence and common sense, such rare commodities.

#2 ^No, it's actually Israelis are used to emergencies (and know from experience, an emergency is not a dastardly government plot to steal our inalienable rights).
