Prof. Dror Mevorach from Hadassah Hospital commented in an interview on Reshet Bet on ending isolation for school students.

"The expectation is that around Wednesday-Thursday we will reach the peak of the infection. It would have made more sense to do it a week or two later, when we go down in the number of infections. The decision here is not medical, but more social, economic and educational," said Mevorach.

"I think the number of patients in bad condition that we reach will be between 1,000 and 1,500 at the peak, which is similar to the third wave. ", He added.
