Meanwhile, today there were discussions of assessment of the situation in the health system, in which there was talk of a decrease in the number of patients who are difficult per day.
As is well known, this is one of the significant indicators for exiting the current closure.
According to the data presented, there is a decrease in the number of severe patients from 140-130 per day to 110-100.
No change was recorded in all other indices.
It should be noted that the AMN report published today presents several reasons for concern regarding the spread of the corona plague in Israel.
The EMN noted that the vaccination campaign has a severe effect on patients' age, and that there is a decline in the proportion of patients among adults over 60. On the other hand, the serious morbidity has not yet been halted, and in recent days more and more patients under 60 have been observed.
The IAEA noted that the infection rate is on the rise and now stands at 0.96, and this figure raises concerns that the disease may spread despite the closure. We also noted that during January last year more than 1,444 corona patients died, almost a third of the number so far. Which stands at 4,808 as of this morning.The report states that the widespread distribution of the British mutation is likely to contribute to a slowdown in moderation in morbidity.
At the same time, Health Minister Yuli Edelstein referred this morning to the extensive vaccination campaign and said: "Simultaneously with the extension of the closure, the vaccination campaign is continuing in full force. All you have to do is get vaccinated. Meanwhile, 131,000 people were vaccinated yesterday." 1,800,000 were also vaccinated with a second vaccine. "
