Speaking on Galei Tzahal this morning, the head of Public Health Services, Dr. Sharon Alray-Price, criticized the government's decision to implement a pilot program to open a number of malls next week.
"Every additional opening means more people coming into contact with each other," she said. "That's not what we want to be doing when we have over 1,000 new coronavirus cases per day and an R-rate of above one."
