As reported earlier, this morning the largest shipment of Pfizer vaccines to date landed in Israel, which includes 400,000-300,000 doses.
It is estimated that the immunization operation on Sunday will begin with the health system with about 700-600 thousand doses.
It is expected that by the end of the month there will be about 3.8 million vaccine doses in Israel's inventory.
Remember, every vaccinated person should receive two doses, so the amount is expected to vaccinate almost two million citizens.
In a discussion held this morning in the Knesset's Labor, Welfare and Health Committee, Health Minister Yuli Edelstein said: "I am calm about the quality of the vaccines, they have been tested in every possible way. I am also calm about the logistical preparation and the HMOs' preparation."
The minister added: "Our task in the coming weeks and months will be to fight Pike News. I see people, even in this house, starting to spread Pike News about the 'dangerous vaccines', and come out with calls not to get vaccinated. These people have no responsibility and no conscience. "You do not want to get vaccinated? Do not get vaccinated, but do not spread such things and maybe make someone not get vaccinated and die."
In addition, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced yesterday that it will convene on Friday to approve the vaccine for the coronavirus developed by the American company Modern. About the vaccine at its meeting on Thursday, and that the principal will adopt the recommendation, i.e. approve emergency use - already on Friday.
