They may not be able to check out any time they like, but they are all hoping to leave.
Ten hotels across Israel have been converted into housing for coronavirus carriers with mild symptoms, as well as for those who are required to be in isolation after having returned from abroad. Additional hotels are being added to the roster each day.
The hotel project is being run by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) in coordination with the Health and Defense ministries. The goal is to ease the burden on hospitals as the number of COVID-19 cases in the country rises, and more patients require medical care.
There are no doctors on staff at the so-called “corona hotels,” and “guests” are free to move around inside as they please. They can socialize and even hold parties. According to those staying at the Dan Panorama hotel in Tel Aviv, an ambulance is always at the ready to transfer anyone whose symptoms worsen.
