Volunteers from ZAKA Tel Aviv and ZAKA Israel came to inform a 37-year-old woman during Shabbat that she had tested positive for coronavirus.

When she opened the door, the volunteers were surprised to see that not only did she not go into isolation but that she was holding a Shabbat meal with her husband and five children and had even invited seven guests to the meal.

"This is a family that always closely follows all the instructions," a relative of the family told Arutz Sheva. "The mother of the family didn't know that she was required to quarantine. She carried out the test as part of preparation protocol for a certain medical treatment, and she had no reason to think that she would test positive."

ZAKA said that unlike in previous weeks, there was increased activity this Shabbat in locating patients in Ramat Gan. The work was spread in a large number of central cities, including Bnei Brak, Givat Shmuel, Or Yehuda, Petah Tikva, Kiryat Ono, Ramat Gan and Tel Aviv.

Meanwhile, Police said on Saturday that 2,960 reports were distributed in the last day as part of the enforcement of the restrictions imposed on the public in the fight against the coronavirus.

According to the statement, 2,780 reports were distributed for not wearing a mask, 77 for leaving a place of residence in a restricted area and 34 reports for operating a place of business or providing a service to someone who is not wearing a mask.
