El Al attendant who spent two weeks in isolation facility in China returns to Israel

An El Al flight attendant, who spent two weeks in an isolation facility in China after testing positive for the Omicron strain, returned to Israel, Hebrew media reported on Thursday.

The flight attendant was diagnosed as an Omicron carrier about two weeks ago when she arrived in the city of Guangzhou in southern China.

Prior to landing in Israel, the flight attendant said that she "feels relieved and thanks everyone."
