Covid Israel, from today the third vaccine dose for over 40s

Third dose of anti-covid vaccine from today in Israel to over 40s. This was announced by the Ministry of Health, after scientists recommended the extension of the vaccination campaign as the Jewish state is in the midst of the fourth wave of coronavirus cases. Premier Naftali Bennett, 49, also received the third dose of the vaccine today. Bennett, reports the ‘Times of Israel’, said that the goal of keeping the country open for the upcoming September holidays is “within reach”, but “a fourth closure will only be avoided if Israelis get vaccinated with a third dose. “” We can beat Delta, but it all depends on our cooperation, “Bennett added, referring to the contagious variant. The prime minister then called Israel a “pioneer” regarding the third dose of vaccines, stating that it is “effective and safe.” The Israeli authorities, he concluded, “will share all data, all information, all insights into this pioneering effort. I am happy to know that many other countries are following suit because, in the end, this is a global war against Covid and we must win. “So far 1.3 million people have received the third dose of vaccine against Covid in Israel, where only Pfizer / Biontech serum is used. 7,922 new infections were recorded last night in Israel, with 599 serious patients, while the victims were 18.
