Corona Commissioner Prof. Nachman Ash is holding a briefing tonight (Monday) on the new developments in the government's approach to vaccines, Ben Gurion Airport policy and the start of the school year. He added that "at the moment there is no intention to propose new restrictions, but to continue to continue the Cabinet's decision for soft containment. We will offer a soft green mark, which will include entrance checks for events and weddings. We are working on its layout and budget at the moment."



Meanwhile, as of today, the queues have been renewed for the first dose of the corona virus vaccine.

This is in accordance with Prime Minister Naftali Bennett's announcement last night of the renewed deal with Pfizer, according to which 200,000 vaccine doses will arrive in Israel on August 1.

At the same time, the Vaccines Committee has decided not to make a comprehensive recommendation to the Ministry of Health to vaccinate the elderly, including those living in nursing homes, as well as children under the age of 12 who have background illnesses or live with immunosuppressants.



The Ministry of Health today ordered the health funds to start vaccinating a third dose of immunosuppressants.

This is due to cumulative evidence that patients with immunosuppression do not develop an adequate antibody response after receiving only two doses of the vaccine for corona, and some may develop antibodies after a third dose.

For us to continue without restrictions it requires personal responsibility and enforcement.
