What have your experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system been like?
When we asked expats and global nomads in Israel about their experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system, they replied...
"The pandemic has had a significant impact on the healthcare system in Israel. The country has implemented a range of measures to protect the health of its citizens, including the introduction of a national contact tracing system, the widespread use of face masks, and the closure of schools and other public spaces. The healthcare system has also been stretched to its limits, with hospitals and clinics facing a surge in demand for services. Despite this, the healthcare system has been able to cope with the increased demand, and the government has provided additional funding to ensure that the system is able to meet the needs of the population," said a member in Israel.
