Government admits that half of new Covid-19 cases in last month were fully vaccinated

Israel's campaign to promote the coronavirus vaccine - now focusing on young teens - is going full steam ahead, in spite of statistics presented by government officials showing that half of those recently infected with Covid-19 were fully vaccinated, Behadrey Haredim reports.

According to her data, of the 891 cases of coronavirus confirmed in the last month alone, half had received both doses of Pfizer's mRNA vaccine.

According to a report on Channel 12, in the months since the vaccines were rolled out, 6,765 people who received both shots have contracted coronavirus, and epidemiological tracing has revealed that an additional 3,133 people contracted Covid-19 from those vaccinated individuals.

It is clear that officials were already aware that the vaccine does not provide sufficient protection, as quarantine regulations for those returning from abroad have recently been changed, requiring even those fully vaccinated to self-isolate upon return from certain countries.

1) A national campaign to vaccinate everyone over the age of 12 is to be launched, with a parallel public information campaign to stress the importance of the vaccine.

4) Government departments whose work is related to containing the spread of the coronavirus will enhance their activities as necessary.

6) Enforcement of quarantine regulations for confirmed cases is to be enhanced, and harsher penalties exacted.
