After US President Donald Trump was diagnosed with coronavirus on Friday morning, Israel politicians, including the premiere began wishing the world leader a "refuah shleima," complete recovery.
"Like millions of Israelis, Sara and I are thinking of President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump and wish our friends a full and speedy recovery," Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wrote on his Twitter account. 
The first message of support, about an hour before, came from Health Minister Yuli Edelstein. 
"I wish a speedy recovery to President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump from COVID-19," Edelstein said in a statement.
President Reuven Rivlin also sent his well wishes on Friday.
"On behalf of the Israeli people, our thoughts and wishes are with President Trump and the First Lady for a refuah shlema, a swift and full recovery," he wrote on Twitter. 
Netanyahu's son, Yair, also sent his regards. 
On his Twitter account he wrote: "Sending my prayers for a speedy recovery to President Trump and First Lady Melania!!!" 

Likud MK Sharren Haskel also wished the Trumps a speedy recovery and added that she wishes "the only negative thing he will see in the future are the results of his COVID-19 tests."

Trump took to Twitter to make the announcement Friday morning in Israel, which was late Thursday night in the United States. 
"Tonight, @FLOTUS and I tested positive for COVID-19. We will begin our quarantine and recovery process immediately. We will get through this TOGETHER," he wrote.
A white house official said Trump was feeling well, and that his doctors were optimistic about the turnout of his condition. 
Trump said on Thursday he was beginning a quarantine process after Hope Hicks, a top adviser and trusted aide, tested positive for the coronavirus.
