The chairman of the Association of State Physicians, Dr. Zeev Feldman, commented on the development of the new COVid-19 strain in Israel.
Feldman said: "We must not repeat the mistakes made with the Delta strain that brought us the fourth deadly wave of infections. The fifth wave is already here and everything must be done to minimize its damage. Activities during Hanukkah must be reconsidered, especially of those belonging to high-risk groups."
