Welcome to episode 9,827 in the telenovela "Sticks on Wheels", in which the main star, Education Minister Yifat Shasha Bitton, once again undermines the national effort to get vaccinated, and especially the children's immunization campaign.
It's not clear if this is a comedy or a tragedy, which is for sure - the main character is acting against the director, against the screenwriters and against the production.
Summary of previous episodes: The main character in the plot has already become a symbol of the plague and vaccine opponents, first as chairman of the Corona committee in the Netanyahu-Gantz government, and in recent months as education minister. "It's going well and what an amazing silence there is," she demonstrated a reluctance to allow vaccinations in schools, and the shocking statement that has upset quite a few parents is remembered - "vaccinating children in schools is a crime," a statement from which she returned only a month after the mental damage was done.
In the current episode, the main plot revolves around the sudden dismissal in the middle of the night by the director general of the Ministry of Education, Yigal Slovik, according to disagreements and disagreements about harnessing the education system and schools for the children's immunization effort. A person is not judged in his grief, "but it can be assumed that his statement" the business is crazy, do not implement decisions on the corona issue "is more credible.
If we continue with the metaphor for the telenovela series, we will only mention that the ratings of the children's vaccination campaign continue to be quite dismal: as of this writing and on the eve of the entry of a strain that is three times more contagious, only ten percent of Israeli children are vaccinated.
The director general of the Ministry of Education put us behind the scenes of the telenovela and told those close to him: "It is possible to disagree with the policy if students need to be vaccinated in schools, but in the end there are government decisions and they need to be implemented." Zigzagging of the education minister in her intentions.
Anyone who follows the polls and the conduct of new members of Tikva, who suffers from a lower support rate than the chance to find the validity of MK Silman, can connect one and another, or more correctly one and another, and identify a trend: MK Michal Shir also "makes scenes" Of non-alignment with the prime minister's policy, and an optional wink to the vociferous base of vaccine opponents and corona doubters can be identified - who will support those who support their struggle.
The thunderous silence of Saar himself, a senior partner in the change government, also seems to indicate support for this electorate.
And if we mentioned the director, Naftali Bennett, whose vision should lead the show, he takes another fatal blow to his authority and advocacy efforts, just a week after another actress, who plays his wife in real life, decided to tweet about his directing instructions and leave the film to some island in the Maldives .
In the fourth season of Corona, in which each player in the series improvises in the scene as he pleases, what is the wonder that there is no rating for the vaccination campaign?
Were we wrong?
Fixed!
