Benjamin netanyahu is where the protest before so called the. Clarke activists have waged a years Long Campaign against what they call his anti democratic rule but in the last 2 weeks the protests have changed and grown as israelis buckling under a 2nd wave of coronavirus turn their anger on the government. Netanyahu has admitted to reopening the economy too quickly allowing gatherings of too many people others point to the governments failure to expand the system of testing and tracing as the 1st wave leaving it ill equipped to stop the 2nd author and journalist Roden Bergman has investigated that Decision Making he says the Health Ministry went against expert advice you need to know as soon as possible if that person is ill or not you need to test that person immediately after he is a good fight is so the suspect so if if you do not been sharing of infection he goes on and on if you are not able to cut it the government itself said it needed a 48 hour turnaround from suspected case to test results even now its taking 6. 00 to 8. 00 days the concern now is that its simply too late in terms of testing to catch up with the sheer scale of this 2nd wave israels missed opportunity on testing and tracing is now being seen as part of a wider political failure to tackle the pandemic under pressure the Prime Minister has been announcing measures only to announce them from a 1750000000. 00 package of cash handouts 1st universal now means tested too in order to close restaurants postponed within hours to weekend closures of beaches and pools reversed within days the one constant is insistence on avoiding a 2nd full lockdown because.
