Likud MKs Haim Katz and Etti Atiya and Shas MK Yoav Bentzur tested positive for the coronavirus in Saturday.

Opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu met with Katz for more than an hour on Wednesday afternoon in Netanyahu’s office at the Knesset.

A source who was present says they were wearing masks.

Likud MK David Bitan, who almost died from COVID-19 a year ago, was at the meeting too, and is taking a test.

Katz, who will quarantine following a positive PCR test, is said to be feeling well.

Nearly 30 ministers and MKs have contracted COVID.
