MK Alon Schuster (Blue and White) said on Tuesday night, "I was informed this evening that my friend Shay Hajaj was diagnosed with coronavirus. Because we sat close to each other at the coronavirus crisis preparation conference last Wednesday, and despite the fact that I have been feeling great in recent days and fully functioning, the Ministry of Health guidelines require me to go into isolation immediately. Therefore, from today until next Wednesday (14 days after the conference we attended together), I will stay in isolation in my home.”
"It is important for me to make it clear: Even during the isolation period, I intend to continue public action from isolation and to fulfill my public duty to the farmers and residents of the rural area who sent me to represent them. As necessary and as much as possible, in coordination between the Ministry of Health and the Knesset, I will securely and responsibly come to the Knesset for votes,” he added.
