Knesset Member Aida Touma-Sliman (Joint Arab List - Hadash, Raam, Balad, Taal) referred in a Reshet Bet interview to coronavirus in Arab society and claimed: "The situation created is based on a lack of trust in the institutional systems. We need to protect ourselves and our families."
On continued mass weddings in Arab society despite virus fears, Touma-Sliman said: "Until a few days ago there was a kind of complacency and a feeling that it was all one big conspiracy. More people are beginning to understand the danger of having such weddings."
