Before leading Ichilov, between 2010 and 2014, Gamzu was the director of the Ministry of Health. In 2019, he was also the chairman of the Medicine Basket, the body which decides on the allocation of public funds for drugs and medical treatments.
In April 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic in Israel, he was placed in charge of protecting seniors in retirement homes from the spread of the virus.[1] In July 2020, he temporarily left his position at Ichilov to become the country's first COVID czar, a position for which he received public praise.[2] In November 2020, he was replaced by Nachman Ash and returned to his previous role in Ichilov.[3]
