The more vaccinations, the less illness from Covid in Israel

More promising results in the time all the vaccinations in Israel have taken place, and businesses look to reopen more normally:
Israel has largely left the coronavirus behind, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated on Thursday in an interview with Fox News, as restaurants and event halls prepared to reopen on Sunday marking the third phase of the country’s exit strategy from the lockdown.

“We’re the first country in the world to emerge from corona,” Netanyahu said. “With the green passport, you can go to restaurants, you can go to theaters, you can go to sports events.”

Some 4.85 million Israelis had received the first dose of the vaccine as of Thursday afternoon, including 3.57 million who have received both. Those who are fully inoculated are eligible for the green passport a week after the second shot.

While restaurants will welcome only green passport holders indoors, they will also be able to seat patrons who are not fully vaccinated outdoors. As for event halls, only people who are immunized or recovered will be able to enter, leaving children under 16 who have not received shots unable to attend weddings of family members.

[...] Also on Thursday, the number of patients in serious condition dropped below 700 for the first time in over two months.
Excellent news. And hopefully, as with Texas (and Mississippi), we'll be able to stop wearing surgical masks soon too.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
