In the video: Operation begins: Thousands of children come to get vaccinated against Corona (Shai Makhlouf and Roni Knafo)

The campaign to vaccinate children shows a percentage of vaccinations that is twice as high as the campaign to vaccinate teenagers - a week since it began. As of this morning (Tuesday), among children aged 11-5, we have so far vaccinated only 3% - which is 49.6 thousand in number, but the figure is still high in relation to the same stage in the operation for vaccination aged 15-12.



According to Clalit Health Fund, the largest fund, in the first week of the youth vaccination campaign about six months ago, only 4,000 adolescents were vaccinated, compared with 16,500 children in the last week - more than four times. The first in front of 5,500 children. The National Health Fund reports 2,000 vaccinators among children compared to only 800 adolescents. Despite the smaller numbers nationally, the small coffers also have a 2.5-fold increase.



Although the population group of 11-5 year olds is significantly larger than the population group of 12-15 year olds, we also see a significant increase in demand.

According to the data of the Maccabi Health Fund among its insured, only 3.3% of the youth aged 15-12 were vaccinated in the first week of their vaccinations, while in the last week 13% of the children aged 11-5 have been vaccinated.

The data are surprisingly good, but in view of the new omicron strain in the Ministry of Health, they want to make sure that the percentage of vaccinators, especially among children, increases, so it is estimated that next week the vaccination campaign will begin in schools, not just HMOs and vaccine vehicles.

"3 million skeptics endanger us all"

Dr. Zeev Feldman, chairman of the State Physicians Association, director of the pediatric neurosurgery unit in Sheba and acting chairman of the Rebbe, states this morning: "Politeness is important, life is more important. It is time to say out loud: All of us. "



He said they "endanger the hospital system - there are not enough intensive care beds to treat an unvaccinated wave and also treat patients with 'normal diseases' optimally - we will not be able to treat another wave and give proper and timely treatment to cancer patients, patients with heart attacks, patients with chronic diseases ".



"Instead of allocating resources to improve the long-term health care system, the vaccine hesitants will force us to spend billions more shekels to treat them," Dr. Feldman added. Concluded.
