Hebrew University Prof. Yinon Ashkenazy warns the government that Israel will reach 800 serious COVID-19 patients by the end of the week, which will put every hospital in the country at full capacity.
Ashkenazy's warning was backed by Prof. Eran Segal of the Weizmann Institute, who also counsels the government on the coronavirus pandemic.
According to their assessment, Israeli hospitals will be dealing with 1,600 serious cases of the disease within three weeks at most.
