Overcrowding Crisis at Israeli Hospitals

Lesson Brief Walla News
On February 4, Walla News reported on the hospitalization crisis occurring in Israel. The rise in requests for lending beds so patients can be hospitalized in their own homes has risen dramatically, out of the fear of contracting an infection or general mistreatment due to over capacity at the hospitals. Yad Sarah, a non-profit organization, is providing additional equipment like beds, monitors, wheelchairs, and more to people who need them but don't want to remain in the hospital. A health maintenance organization reported that patients could come to them if needed, where the danger of contracting a disease or infection is significantly lower.
