Time to Shut Down the Homes...

By Gldmeier @gldmeier
According to the latest statistics published by the Ministry of Health and the Knesset Corona Committee, in the past week 7998 Israelis have contracted CoronaVirus.
The Ministry has been able to trace back the sources for, so far, about 64% of those infected:
1)56.9% no determination where they got it from (largely due to lack of manpower to do the tracing)
2)Of the 43.5% which were able to be traced:
67% - got it at home.
9.5% - at an educational institution.
5.6% - at an event - wedding, bar mitzvah, etc.
4.8% - at a house of worship, mikva, yeshiva
4% - during recreation (including restaurants)
2.2% - at work
1.3% - in nursing homes
1.2% - malls/stores
1.1% - at a hospital or medical clinic
1.1% - at a sports facility
0.6% - public transportation
0.5% - outside
0.5% - in the IDF
0.3% - social meeting
0.2% - at a pool or the beach
(breakdown in English taken from Dov Lipman's FB post)
So, 67% of thos einfected caught it at home, and 0.2% caught it at the beach. instead of trying to shut down the beaches, they should shut down all homes and tell everyone to go sleep on the beaches or at the campgrounds. Tell people to spend more time during the day on the bus than at home. Go do some sports and hang out for a bit in the mall. Have dinner ta a wedding and go to shul.
SHUT DOWN THE HOMES!
