I hope now we see some relief, "he said.

Prof. Ash said that" everyone who dies it hurts, but you have to remember the other side of the equation and it hurts a lot of people when you close the economy and create constraints. "

Regarding the new variant BA2 said that it is still in a few percent with us.

"In the meantime, there are no signs that it is spreading. New variants are constantly emerging. One of the important things we do is to prepare, monitor their development and assess their danger. I hope no variants will arise that will bother us."

On the green mark he said that it is less effective at this time, "and we have always said and I also say now - we did not look at it as a tool to encourage immunization, but as a tool to prevent disease."

According to Ash, in about two weeks tens of thousands of vaccines will be thrown in the trash due to their validity, "and this is the opportunity to call on people to come and get vaccinated. The vaccine is also effective in preventing disease and certainly in preventing serious illness."

Yesterday, the Ministry of Health announced that there was a decrease in the number of verified patients, which stands at 52,600 patients on Sunday.

The number of patients in a difficult condition continues to rise slowly and stands at 1,235.

The percentage of positive subjects on Sunday was 28.16%.

The coefficient of infection continues to drop to 0.
