Prime Minister Netanyahu wants to open a line of credit to respond to businesses hit by the Corona impact
Posted on Mar 7, 2020 by Ifi Reporter - Dan Bielski
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he intended to recruit students and soldiers to disinfect public facilities to fight the spread of the Corona virus, stating that "the epidemic does not harm children or youth thank God," even though a high school student in Israel is infected with the virus. "We must disinfect public facilities. This virus is sensitive to bleach. We must act neatly and disinfect train stations, buses, etc. I will also ask the IDF to take certain facilities to this end, "Netanyahu said.
Netanyahu further stated that he plans to mobilize the Air Force for the mission as well, to ensure that Israel has all the essential supplies. "I said the supply chain is also stalling on things that are essential to us, including pharmaceuticals and raw materials. Israel is in almost the best position in the world, precisely because of the strict policies they have initiated, and so we control the situation, through the mobilization of the air force we intend to keep it."
Following Prime Minister Netanyahu's remarks, the working and learning youth movement announced that it was joining the reading. "Even now, as always, we are committed to Israel's national missions. As an educational movement, we will continue to guide tens of thousands of our trainees during this time as well, and increase social resilience," said Maya Geva, the working and learning youth coordinator. The Ezra youth movement has also announced that it will recruit youths to help disinfect public places. "The youth movement's management will contact the relevant parties to promote the matter," the movement said.
The Prime Minister added: "In the last 48 hours we have seen an increase in the rate of infection. There is a 38-year-old patient who is fighting for his life. We cannot estimate the exact rate of infection, but it is probably higher than we expected. I spoke to world leaders and initiated a conference call this week, To see how the states can help each other. It's a global epidemic whether the CDC calls it that or not, it's a matter of days or hours. It's doubtful whether such an epidemic has existed in the last century. "
Prime Minister Netanyahu also addressed the virus hit in the economy: "I want to open a line of credit to respond to businesses and companies that are feeling the pressure. Economies are starting to hurt, governments are closing their doors, it is important to supply products to all economies. Nobody knows how the plague will stop. We will recruit the best minds in Israel to come up with a broad test that will ensure industrial testing capability that separates the sick and the healthy, and thus continue to maintain the Israeli economy. Without it - things will result in a double, both economic and industrial situation. "
According to Netanyahu, "We will also use my relationships with the leaders of certain states. We will help them and us. There are things to give. I want to strictly follow the instructions, not shake hands and avoid touching them. These are things that will stop, reduce or slow the spread of the epidemic. You are on the instructions and we will keep you posted. We will work together responsibly, coolly, cohesively while fulfilling our promises. With the help of God together we will overcome the crisis. "
