Waiting for the vaccine

By this morning, more than a million Israelis had been vaccinated against Corona, and according to the Ministry of Health, close to 45 percent of those aged 60 and over, the most vulnerable population to Corona, have been vaccinated against the virus.
Israel's achievement is on a global scale, and the health care system and government are receiving worldwide acclaim.
The vaccination campaign in Israel is going very well in the HMOs, after Prime Minister Netanyahu and Health Minister Yuli Edelstein recorded success on a global scale when they managed to bring a very large amount of vaccines to Israel, along with millions more vaccines.

Vaccines are the main means of eradicating and dealing with the plague that has hit health, economic and social so hard in Israel and around the world.
Around 85 million people worldwide have been infected with corona and more than 1.8 million have died from it, and just now the world is hospitalized in critical or humane condition with another 100,000 people in 218 countries.
Nearly 3,400 people died in Corona in Israel, and more than 400,000 Israelis have already been infected.
But until it can be declared that the vaccines will eradicate the epidemic or at least make it non-lethal and until a sane life can be returned, it will take a few more months - both because there should be a very large mass of Israelis receiving both doses of the vaccine, (As opposed to the protection of the vaccine against the development of a serious illness and, God forbid, death) Despite and with the vaccine, and also that there will be an effect on the timing and intensity of exit from the crisis on the rate of immunization worldwide.
Unforgivable injury
Meanwhile, in contrast to the high score for the vaccination campaign, the country is failing tragically and inconceivably and shockingly in treating the epidemic itself.
Thus, in parallel with the vaccinations of more than 100,000 Israelis a day, several dozen Israelis die from the corona every day (which could mean about 1,000 deaths in about a month) and several thousand new verifications are discovered every day, and the numbers are only growing.
According to data from the Ministry of Health, the corona wards in the hospitals now house almost 750 critically ill patients, of whom 225 are in critical condition, including 177 respiratory patients.
It's not over yet
But in order to prevent this catastrophe, Israel must immediately enter a closure, including the entire education system at all ages and in all regions, all trade and most jobs.
Only in this way will it be possible to mitigate the severe, unforgivable injury of hundreds of other new serious patients and, God forbid, hundreds more dead, while at the same time the state boasts and its heads boast the feathers of the successful operation of the corona vaccines.
The speed with which Israel galloped to a third renewed and dangerous eruption of the corona was also caused complacency in light of the very blessed immunization itself.
Thus, in fact, the provision of the necessary and essential vaccines causes, at least until they are given to the majority of the population, cognitive and explanatory damages because many Israelis think that the corona is already behind us and that all restrictions, limitations and instructions can be kicked and trampled.
The impact of this line of thinking can be seen in recent days in many places in the country, where there are mass violations of corona restrictions, some of which are also accompanied by scandalous statements by politicians and mayors.
The recent decisions of the Corona Cabinet were partly irresponsible and contrary to the requirements of the Ministry of Health both in the exit from the second closure and in the partial entry into the third closure, with some cabinet ministers and some Knesset members competing in a disastrous competition over who will succeed in disintegrating To enter into a full and hermetic closure to save hundreds of Israelis from their cruel and unforgivable deaths.
It is to be hoped that perhaps even today the government will recover and do what it had to do more than two weeks ago so that we can stop counting the dead from Corona.
