And as to the fast 4 hour PCR test on arrival, although the "tender" went out and the bidders were supposed to be in a position to start by 27/03 there has been no further developments as I can see. Both IAA and Femi still are publicising the present 6-8 hour turn around.

- "it is impossible to hold a state on a ' alert' only so that perhaps one day some variant will be discovered here if any will be discovered,
- Israel is among the few countries in the world that requires the law to carry out coronavirus tests at the entrance to its borders
- The ministry of health understands that a change in this mandatory framework will be required even in view of public pressure, and several options are being considered, including eliminating the coronavirus test that tourists are obligated to perform before departure, waiving the quarantine obligation until the answer is received.
