Senior health official: 20,000 Israelis could die of coronavirus – Health Ministry’s deputy director warns if the epidemic isn’t stopped in time, the spread might spin out of control; health authorities order half a million coronavirus testing kits to better map spread across country | ynetnews
A senior official at the Health Ministry on Sunday estimated that up to 20,000 Israelis could die from the coronavirus if the spread of the disease spins out of control.
„Some of these people would have likely died from other diseases due to their underlying health conditions,“ said Health Ministry Deputy Director Prof. Itamar Grotto. „That number [potential 20,000] would be added to the annual mortality rate in Israel, which is about 40,000 people a year.“
