Speaking on Radio 103 FM, Science Minister Izhar Shay expressed the opinion that it is "possible to form a different government even without going to elections - and within the current Knesset, there are more people who want to avoid elections than there are who support them right now."
Commenting on future plans for dealing with the epidemic, Shay said, "There's no way of avoiding a nighttime curfew, if we want to continue reopening schools, malls, cafes, and restaurants. It's our responsibility to find creative solutions."
