The Minister of the Environment has suffered a fatal blow to her political career in making a very wrong decision. She did not understand like many other ministers that red lines should not be crossed. Not only did she break the rules like many of the public and traveled to Tiberias but she continued to lie to Ministry of Health officials who conducted the epidemiological investigation and did not report her true location and became a super-distributor of the corona virus. About four hours passed between the first conversation that the Minister of Environmental Protection, Gila Gamliel (Likud), had with an epidemiologist of the Ministry of Health, in which she claimed that she was infected in Corona by her driver, and another conversation in which she said she may have been infected in a "family synagogue". The researchers. Only this morning (Monday), more than a day after the minister announced that she had contracted the virus, did the Ministry of Health discover that Gamliel, who lives in Tel Aviv, was in Tiberias on Yom Kippur.
Gamliel announced on social media that she became infected in Corona shortly after midnight between Saturday and Sunday. During every Sunday morning the Ministry of Health tried to reach her by phone, without success. The first conversation with the minister took place only at 3:30 p.m., and was conducted by a skilled epidemiological investigator. Gamliel told the investigator that she thinks she was infected by her driver, who is ill in Corona. Following this, the driver was initially registered as the source of the infection.
However, after further investigation and thought, the epidemiological investigators found that the information provided by the minister was inconsistent with the fact that her husband and another member of her family were also infected - and they did not come into contact with the driver. According to the researchers' registration, at 7:22 PM, another conversation took place with Gamliel, in which she said for the first time that on Yom Kippur she was in a "family synagogue," but did not mention that she was in Tiberias. According to the information she provided, she was only in Jerusalem and at a work meeting in Petah Tikva.
The Ministry of Health discovered that Gamliel was in Tiberias on Yom Kippur only this morning. Following this, another conversation took place with her, during which the minister reported on eight people who came into close contact with her in the synagogue where she prayed. At the end of the conversation, the epidemiological inquiry ended for the ministry. During the day, the ministry remained silent on the issue and only in the afternoon did they issue a statement that did not address any possibility that Gamliel violated the closure provisions and lied in the epidemiological investigation. "The purpose of any epidemiological investigation is to identify potential contacts that could infect and endanger other people, and to isolate them," the ministry said.
Health Minister Yuli Edelstein (Likud) this evening called on a pathetic call to elected officials, "From both the coalition and the opposition - be as light as strict on any directive from the Ministry of Health. Edelstein has been quoted several times in recent months emphasizing the importance of the personal example of Knesset members in the struggle in Corona. "We are very thirsty for public cooperation and even more for the personal example of elected officials in this field," he said in one of his first speeches in the current Knesset. The police are considering opening an investigation against Minister Gamliel for spreading diseases. It is to be hoped that the lesson of the Minister of the Environment will be to cleanse the environment of its political presence. Her place in the house. Not in the government and not in the legislature. It is true that the prime minister is the first of the family of liars. However, such conduct should not be accepted by other ministers. Minister Gamliel belatedly apologized for her conduct and said he was willing to pay the fine that would be imposed on her. However, it is difficult to know whether this will be the only price you will have to pay.
Meanwhile, the opposition also has embarrassing conduct. MK Miki Levy Mish Atid is also having a hard time keeping to the rules. He visited his son during the Sukkot holiday in violation of the rules of distance. Speaker Yesh Atid made it clear to MK Levy that there is no room for him to be left on the Knesset's corona committee. It must be noted that Mickey Levy is not only a legislator, he is also a former senior police officer. More precisely, he previously served as commander of the Jerusalem police.
