This lockdown is the biggest joke ever. People are out and about everywhere. Stores are open everywhere outside of the major malls. Shul are all open from what I hear in BB and Jerusalem. Lets see what happens next week when testing goes back up again.

Are you saying there is the same or more interaction as there was before the lockdown?

Much less but I still wouldn't call it a lockdown. It has helped - look at the numbers

Correct. I find it interesting that people are questioning how the numbers are coming down after a lockdown was instituted on the basis of it not being enforced as strictly as they said it would be.

It’s not relevant how strict it is relative to what it was supposed to be, what matters is how strict it is relative to what it was before.

Much less tests now, but that should have caused it to go up.
Last few days have been 47,000 tests every day just like before.

Coronavirus infection rate continues to fall
1,609 new cases of coronavirus diagnosed Sunday, with 7.7% of tests returning positive. 21 new fatalities as death toll approaches 2,000.

A total of 1,609 new cases of the coronavirus were reported across Israel Sunday, according to data released by the Health Ministry Monday morning.

The decline in the number of newly diagnosed cases is the result, in part, of the small number of tests conducted Sunday, with just 22,777 people tested.

However, the percentage of tests returning positive also remains significantly lower than it was for much of the last two weeks, with 7.7% of rests coming back positive, down from a peak of 15.1%.

For the ninth day in a row, new recoveries outpaced newly diagnosed infections, with 3,687 patients recovering from the coronavirus on Sunday.

Since the pandemic began 291,828 cases of the coronavirus have been diagnosed in Israel, with 238,145 ending in recovery.

On Sunday, 21 coronavirus-related fatalities were recorded, raising the death toll to 1,983.

There are currently 51,698 active cases of the virus in Israel, including 1,553 patients being treated in hospitals. Of those, 823 are in serious condition, with a further 299 in moderate condition. Two-hundred-and-twenty-four patients are on respirators.

This is a relative of mine defending his sister in law on Simchas Torah outside Yagdil after she was arrested for having her mask down and being in a crowd.

The problems with lack of proper screening and training of police in the US seems like child play compared to what goes on there.

It doesn't seem like ANYONE in that country has a sense of what de-escalation means, or of how important and powerful it could be.

If you think for a second this is the majority opinion in Israel you would be mistaken. There are a select few individuals in the police force in Jerusalem and other few locations that behave like this. It is not the norm. As you can see here in this video of another Charedi wedding in the North the cops behaved like humans. https://krayot.mynet.co.il/local_news/article/S1Y0ZU4PD
