Israel's coronavirus czar on Sunday said although he doesn't expect another COVID-19 wave to hit the country, a mask mandate will continue for the foreseeable future.
"The numbers are declining but they are still not so low as to allow us to change the policy on masks and self-isolation," Nachman Ash said during a press briefing.
"The masks are most effective in crowds in confined spaces. However, we are not discussing any change [in the mask mandate] and currently wearing masks is required both outdoors and indoors."
