Three Israelis have been tested positive for the deadly coronavirus, the Health Minister announced on Wednesday.
Two patients have apparently contracted the pathogen at an Or Yehuda toy store, where another diagnosed patient had reportedly stayed.
One of the patients is a ninth-grade high school student from Brenner Regional Council who works at the toy store.
The other patients are a female patron of the store and a man who returned from Italy on February 29 and stayed in home-quarantine since.
All patients are reportedly in light condition and the full details of the epidemiological investigation, including the patients' flight details and exact whereabouts before entering quarantine, would be published upon the investigation's completion.
