    3 criminal complaints filed for breach of coronavirus isolation

    Doctor Roni Berkowitz, head of the Health Ministry’s Division of Enforcement and Inspection, told public radio on Tuesday, "If we receive information about someone is not observing isolation [because of the coronavirus -ed.], then we come to his house and make sure they are in isolation. If he is not home, then we will file a complaint with the police. We have filed three complaints so far."

    Repeating a warning issued earlier by the ministry, Dr. Berkowitz said, "A breach of isolation is a serious offense punishable by imprisonment."
