Zionist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu tested negative for coronavirus, the virus that causes COVID-19 disease, Monday after a parliamentary aide was confirmed to be carrying the virus, though he would remain in isolation.

Spokesman Ofir Gendelman said on Twitter that Netanyahu, 70, his family and staff all tested negative, but "he will remain quarantined until further instructions are issued by the Ministry of Health".

The Zionist entity’s Health Ministry regulations generally require 14-day self-isolation for anyone deemed to have been in proximity to a carrier, with the duration reduced for the number of days that have passed since the suspected exposure.

According to Zionist media, the infected aide had been present at a Knesset session last week attended by Netanyahu as well as opposition MKs with whom he is trying to build an emergency coalition government to help address the coronavirus crisis.

Tel Aviv has reported 4,695 cases and 16 fatalities.
