Israel just issued additional measures to prevent the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19). The country will not only limit entry into the country from several countries but also imposes the cancellation of all international conferences and bans public events of over 5,000 people.

The country will ban entry to passengers coming from the following countries: Germany, France, Switzerland, Austria, Spain, China, Hong Kong, Thailand, Macau, Singapore, Italy, South Korea and Japan.

Passengers arriving on flights originating from one of these countries will be immediately sent back. Israeli citizens reentering the country must enter a 14-day home-base quarantine.

Working for 25 years in the aviation industry, I changed my career and became a firefighter/EMT in 2021. I like to spend my free time with my two sons, girlfriend, family and friends. I love to travel, wine and dine and support my favourite football squad KV Mechelen. Once an Ironman 70.3 finisher and dreaming of completing a full distance.
