Deputy Health Minister Yaakov Litzman has told Yisrael Hayom, "I believe that I will stay in the office because the public is happy with me. For me this is not a springboard to another job."
In the interview, which will be published in full at the end of the week, Litzman responded to reports of hospital overcrowding by sayin, "It is clear that there is a problem with hospital beds in emergency rooms, but we have to remember that these are pictures that we see every year in the winter months, and the media is happy to show them, even to attack me, and even more so because we are in an election period.The state of Israeli medicine has never been better, And I promise - next year the situation will improve."
