I hate stupid anonymous quotes, only meant to make people nervous and with no accountability if (when?) they are wrong. We need to hold people accountable for things like this
Person should lose their job and any ability to be involved in virus decision making process if they are wrong

It’s like when fauci said we would have 100k cases a day in the summer.

At least there he has an out - saying we would have had that had people not listened. Here the quote doesn't even allow for that

Explains how he has no issue spending $4 trillion dollars on the Green New Deal, he probably thinks it’s $4 billion...

BH numbers are really dropping. Pretty close to being a green country again.

Bibi: How can we give guidelines where we can say we opened schools, but practically no schools will be able to open
Gamzu:

Quote

The Health and Education Ministries announced Friday afternoon that they have agreed to a plan which would allow a partial reopening of schools.

Under the arrangement worked out by the two ministries, students will be able to learn in groups of up to nine, separated from other students in study ‘capsules’.

Each capsule must maintain a distance of at least 100 meters (328 feet) from other capsules.

Classes will take place in open spaces, rather than indoors, and children will be required to wear masks for the duration of the classes, except while eating, drinking, or engaging in sports activities.

It was already raining this week, how many outdoor lessons do you think there will be once the winter properly starts?

jose34 · « **Reply #513 on:** October 24, 2020, 06:58:37 PM »

Could be a month or two till it really starts raining.
Last year did not really rain till at least December.

https://www.jpost.com/health-science/nearly-20-percent-more-israelis-died-in-september-2020-vs-2019-647276 Seems like the fatality numbers match pretty accurately the excess deaths number.
Meaning the .8% observed death rate is accurate. Meaning the actual death rate is likely half that at best

In a bold step that is aimed at blessing the burden on the public from the Coronavirus fallout, Health Minister Yuli Edelstein instructed the ministry to cut the mandatory quarantine period to 12 days instead of the current 14. The above holds true for people who have come into contact with a confirmed carrier of the covid-19 coronavirus of all ages.

Edelstein made the decision following numerous consultations with a wide range of health experts.

Edelstein made the decision ~~following numerous consultations with a wide range of health experts.~~ because he wanted to, based on little more than flipping a coin, like most other corona decisions in Israel.

It's probobly to throw a exasperated public a bone, lets see if it's enough...

Is this in effect already? Does it apply to people currently in quarantine?

It's possible for two sides of an argument to be wrong
