Israel on Wednesday reintroduced compulsory loneliness in state-run hotels for people arriving in Israel from abroad while the Ministry of Health launched a pilot program in which travelers quarantine at home and obtain an electronic tag as part of the measures to prevent the spread of COVID19.
The Knesset Constitution, Justice and Justice Committee agreed to extend the order to March 2 after panel chairman MK Yaakov Asher (United Torah Judaism) opposed it, forcing the government to give him alternatives. .
Passengers, on the other hand, will have the option to participate in the new pilot program and separate themselves at home.
As part of the pilot, the state will initially issue 100 electronic tags to passengers to ensure they do not leave the quarantine location during the isolation period. The program is expected to be expanded to 1,000 devices within days.
Passengers wishing to separate at home instead of a hotel must deposit a NIS-1,500 investment.
