This morning (Sunday) the workers in the building received an update from the administration according to which: “We are updating that Zamir has collected a positive for Corona. If he is not vaccinated as described above, he should go for a pcr test. Who is not vaccinated at all and is exposed to the patient will go out for seven days of isolation. “

Israeli workers in the building said that “there is a lot of contagion. We are hysterical and afraid to come to the offices.” According to them, the situation at the consulate is a representative sample of what is happening in the whole of New York City, which seems to be about to erupt from the Omicron strain.

Mayor Bill de Bellasio said over the weekend that the omicron was “in full force” in the city, after more than 8,300 positives to Corona were found there in one day.
