The number of active patients stands at 8,335, almost half as low as last week, when it stood at 14,953.
In hospitals across the country, 676 corona patients are hospitalized, 467 of them in critical condition, 235 in critical condition, and 201 are connected to respirators.
75% of patients defined as critically ill were not vaccinated for corona.
Furthermore, data from the Ministry of Health show that 5,221,482 people received the first dose of corona vaccines, and 4,712,877 Israelis were vaccinated with the second dose.
HMOs have reduced the activity of vaccine complexes in light of a decline in demand for vaccines.
During the holidays, the daily number of vaccinators was only about 7,000-6,000 and also in the week before the holiday there was a decrease.
Despite the many encouraging signs, the Corona Information and Knowledge Center said that it is not possible to determine at this stage that the plague is behind us and therefore we must avoid complacency, continue to follow the guidelines and take care when continuing to ease restrictions on the economy.
