The Ministry of Health updates today (Sunday) that the increase in the number of serious patients in Israel continues - 436 active patients, with 57 new serious patients added in the last day.
According to data yesterday, 27,167 new carriers were identified in Israel, which is 9.5 percent of 298859 new tests.
The data also show that there are currently 259,204 active patients in Israel, 436 of whom are hospitalized in critical condition, of whom 96 are respirators and 11 are connected to Acme.
Also, the adhesion coefficient stands at 1.59.
In addition, eight people died yesterday from the virus - thus bringing the death toll from corona in Israel to 8,319 people.
As I recall, Prof. Ran Blitzer, head of the Cabinet of Experts advising the government in the fight against Corona, announced last night that he was infected with the virus: "Therefore, the infection will probably pass without complications. But for adults and chronic patients - just avoid encounters in a closed space this week. Less risk than Delta - and still dangerous."
At the same time as Blitzer, Finance Minister Avigdor Lieberman also announced yesterday that he was infected with Corona.
In doing so, Lieberman became the fourth member of the government last week to be verified for the virus, after Foreign Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Yair Lapid, Minister of Internal Security Amar Amar-Lev and Minister of Construction and Housing Zeev Elkin also came out positive.
