According to the guidelines of the Ministry of Health, if half a year has passed since the second vaccine dose and you have not yet received the third vaccine dose, you will be required to enter full isolation back to Israel from any country in the world.
In recent conversations with returnees from abroad, they report that the Ministry of Health releases the returnees from isolation based on a positive serological test, even though six months have passed since their second vaccine dose and even though they were not vaccinated in the third dose.

It is currently unclear whether these are representatives who did not understand the guidelines or the ministry's quiet policy that allows those who do not want to be vaccinated in the third dose to be released from isolation, but the fact is that there are those who are not entitled to a green label in Israel.
The serological test can be performed at Ben Gurion Airport immediately after landing and by prior reservation, the cost of the test is 126 shekels and the results are obtained in about half an hour only.
It is important to emphasize that according to official guidelines, the only people allowed to leave the isolation back from abroad after receiving a negative result for a corona test performed at Ben Gurion Airport are those who were vaccinated in the second dose in the last six months, recovered and vaccinated or recovered only in the last six months.
The Ministry of Health has not yet responded.
