The five countries with the highest number of deaths are the United States, Brazil, India, Russia and Mexico, and they account for about half of all deaths in the world, while Peru, Hungary, Bosnia, the Czech Republic and Gibraltar have the highest mortality rates.

The source of the infection is not yet known. Another outbreak was in Modi'in, where 12 students were infected at school, after the father of one of the children in the class became infected while he was abroad.
Prof. Yossi Karko, director of the Center for Clinical Research at Hadassah Ein Kerem, explained to Walla! Of the vaccine.
