The Israel Defense Forces has launched its own emergency hotline for soldiers showing signs of the coronavirus.
Soldiers are urged to call *6900 if they display any symptoms of the virus, such as a fever, cough or shortness of breath, the Times of Israel reports. The hotline will provide information about the virus and enable soldiers to request a test.
Tests will be conducted by members of the Medical Corps and reviewed in an IDF lab. Soldiers who test positive will be treated at a military facility dedicated to patients of the virus.
