Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's coronavirus tests came back negative Monday evening. The tests conducted on the prime minister's family and staff also showed no infection.
"For the avoidance of doubt, the prime minister is currently in self-quarantine until the Health Ministry instructs otherwise," the Prime Minister's Office stated.
In addition, the Knesset spokesperson stated that no MKs would be required to enter isolation since none of them had been in contact with Netanyahu's adviser Rivka Falluch, whose husband tested positive for the coronavirus.
Netanyahu decided to go into self-quarantine after it was revealed that his adviser's husband had contracted the coronavirus.
The Prime Minister's Office said that "in recent weeks, the prime minister and his environment have been strictly adhering to the Health Ministry's guidelines, accompanied by his personal physician, and have held most of the discussions on video calls from his residence."
