Fear of vaccination as opposed to prioritization: The Ministry of Health has published a segmentation of the ages of the vaccinated
In the Clalit, Maccabi and Leumit HMOs, about a third of the vaccinators were under the age of 60, while in Meuhedet their rate was close to 40%.
The Ministry of Health clarified that the vaccinators may have included citizens in a risk group or medical teams - defined as part of the priority - and emphasized that no sanctions will be taken against the funds.

Two and a half weeks after the start of the corona virus vaccination campaign, the distribution of vaccine age groups for each HMO was revealed.
According to data from the Ministry of Health, Clalit and Leumit HMOs each vaccinated close to 30% under the age of 60. Maccabi vaccinated 33% below the target population, while the United HMO vaccinated almost 40%.
However, among the vaccinated people under the age of 60, there may be citizens in a risk group or medical staff - who are also entitled to the vaccine in accordance with the priority set by the Ministry of Health.
The disclosure of the data came as a result of the dissemination of news on social networks about surpluses in vaccines in the vaccination centers, which are expected to be thrown away if they are not given.
However, these messages have created a situation where many young people, the main users of social media, have been vaccinated before people in the risk populations.

Dr. Orly Greenfeld, Medical Director at Magen Israel, said that Israel is on the way to vaccinating the majority of the population over the age of 60. "52% of those aged 60 and over have been vaccinated, over 60% of those aged 70 and over have been vaccinated. "Nevertheless, we will reach out quickly to vaccinate the entire target population,"
Greenfeld
said.
Medical and military personnel that their work cannot be performed remotely, compared to teaching staff.
In any case, teachers are a high priority, but at the moment we are still at risk.
"If there are excess vaccines left, the citizens on the priority list, including teachers and gradually younger people, should be vaccinated in descending order."

The chairman of the Corona Committee, MK Yifat Shasha-Bitton, said in response to the immunization data at the HMOs that "while at-risk populations and vital workers are awaiting vaccinations, the Netanyahu government's combinatorial system is exposed, in which young people are vaccinated with crooked priorities. We called for all teaching staff to be allowed. "Get vaccinated and nothing will be done. Their health, the health of our loved ones, and the education of our children are harmed because of another disappointing failure of the Israeli government."
According to data from the Ministry of Health, about 135,000 people were vaccinated yesterday, with a total of 1,224,000 vaccinated.
"We win the vaccine race but unfortunately lose the battle against the mutation. The rise in morbidity should worry any elected official who should remember that his first commitment is public health," boasted Health Minister Yuli Edelstein.
