Prime Minister Netanyahu visited the situation room that opened at Sheba Hospital and received a briefing from Pediatric Infectious Disease Director Dr. Galia Barkai about the treatment that will be provided at a distance to Israeli passengers landing from Japan.
"There are allegations of over-preparedness. I prefer it to under-preparedness," the Prime Minister said. "In addition, I urge the Finance Minister to compensate the affected businesses. We're in an incident involving external forces and must deal with those who are affected, civilians and businesses. We will do everything necessary."
