In about two weeks, this will happen - vaccinated tourists will flood Israel on August 1, according to the plan of Tourism Minister Yoel Rezbozov, which will be presented to the government today (Tuesday). These are tourists vaccinated with vaccines recognized by the EMA / FDA and also those vaccinated with other vaccines - as long as they show negative PCR tests. Even tourists from vaccine which is not recognized by the Ministry of Health (like Russian and Chinese) will be able to enter, but will be required to undergo Sirologiot speed at Ben Gurion Airport (provide an answer within a quarter of an hour), plus a negative PCR testing.



The Ministry of Tourism are trying to save what's left of this summer In the industry, although the quota of tourists who could enter the country was not specified, however, the increase in morbidity in Israel, which stood at 730 new verified people yesterday (Monday), may increase and the date of entry of tourists into the country will be postponed accordingly.



It will be recalled that those who caused the corona to return to Israel, and with it the Indian variant ("Delta"), were Israelis who returned to Israel from various countries in the world and brought the virus with them.

Also, from last May, organized and vaccinated tourist groups began to enter Israel, according to the outline of the Ministry of Health.

The number of cases of infection in Malta has jumped by about 600 percent

Unlike Israel, in the most vaccinated country in the world according to the number of inhabitants - Malta - the authorities announced this week that they will stop the entry of tourists starting tomorrow (Wednesday), despite the fact that 80.9 percent of its half a million inhabitants have already been vaccinated at least first vaccine.



Despite the large percentage of vaccines, authorities in the island nation of the Mediterranean believe that even this is not enough to protect its inhabitants from the potential outbreak of the corona plague. Furtune reports that in the past week, the number of infections in Malta has soared by about 600 per cent, making it the first EU country to announce a ban on the entry of unvaccinated visitors, or those under the age of 12, without a negative check, accompanied by vaccinated parents. The residents of Malta themselves, who are now abroad, will be exempt from the ban on entering the country and all that is required of them is to present a negative corona test.



"In recent days, most of the new cases of infection have been related to travel - people who came from abroad or residents of Malta who went abroad and returned home. Most of them are the same unvaccinated tourists," said Malta's Health Minister Chris Piran last Friday.



The announcement comes amid the fact that just less than a month ago, Malta announced that tourists from different parts of the world are invited to visit the country and visit it, presenting a negative PCR test.

In addition, as we published in Walla!

Tourism, Malta has offered up to $ 200 funding in its hotels for tourists who will connect to come to it this summer.

Currently, the only vaccinated to be stepped on Malta soil are Britons and EU residents who carry a vaccination certificate issued in the UK or across the EU.

Immunized tourists from other parts of the world - will not be able to visit Malta in the meantime, including Americans.

Regarding Israelis with an Israeli vaccination certificate - no information has been provided so far.

Greece and Spain are also tightening restrictions

Meanwhile, the beloved of Israelis this summer and in general - Greece - and Spain, which was recently opened to tourists - have tightened restrictions on entry into their countries following an increase in morbidity caused by the Indian variant.

For example, a night curfew was imposed on some 30 cities in the coastal area of ​​the city of Valencia, including the city itself, and the association of more than ten people in public was banned.

Spain has experienced a triple rise in morbidity in just the last two weeks.



All over Greece, including the islands, unvaccinated tourists began to be banned from entering bars, theaters and cinemas that apparently caught up with tourists and locals alike.

"The country will not be closed again, as a result of the behavior of certain people," Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis told residents on television, "This is not Greece at risk, but Greek citizens who are not vaccinated."
