The purchase of the next vaccine pulse against the Corona continues to be delayed:

 Defense Minister Bnei Gantz today (Monday) rejected the two compromise proposals formulated at a meeting between his representatives and Finance Minister Israel Katz. The Likud's opposition to his appointment as permanent justice minister. 

Sources in blue and white said after the meeting with the Treasury that "it turned out that there is money that can be used for the supply of vaccines, but the Minister of Finance refuses and gift purchased vaccines by amending the Basic Law and increasing the deficit." 

The Defense Minister's Office said: "We informed the Prime Minister's Office that after professional talks with the Ministries of Finance and Health, we were convinced that a budget increase should be agreed for vaccines only, after the appointment of a permanent Minister of Justice."

"Every citizen in Israel should ask himself why a prime minister is charged with a crime, refuses to appoint a justice minister, even at the cost of 'return to closure' according to his method," attacked Minister Gantz's office, "the only answer is that he put the law above state needs .

Earlier, a completely different reality was described in Katz's environment. At a meeting between Finance Minister Israel Katz and Defense Minister Bnei Gantz, Tourism Minister Orit Farkash HaCohen and Deputy Prime Minister Hod Betzer, two alternatives emerged that would allow the purchase of vaccines.

One option was to approve the original proposal formulated by the Ministries of Health and Finance, but to condition its implementation on the approval of the Super Economic Cabinet, at every stage in the implementation of the plan.

The second option is to approve in the government only the purchase of the vaccines and wait with the rest of the needs of the Ministry of Health for another date. 

As stated, both proposals were rejected by the Minister of Defense.

The Ministry of Health has warned in recent weeks that the delay in purchasing the vaccine beats will harm the next stages of the fight against the disease.
