The Israeli Ministry of Health announced, on Thursday, the outbreak of the Corona epidemic in 231 towns in Israel, each of which has at least one infected person, while the Israeli Ministry of Health announced, on Thursday morning, that 307 new cases of the virus had been recorded during the last 24 hours after 59,113 laboratory tests.
The ministry said that there are 29 serious cases, of which 17 are connected to artificial respirators.
Yesterday, Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked warned that any significant increase in the rate of the pandemic would lead to a re-examination of the closure of Ben Gurion Airport.
And she said, in the context of a tour that the airport’s Hall No. 1 took, which began yesterday, with transferring arrivals from the red countries to it: “The Ben Gurion Airport case is the central issue in the fight against Corona, we are trying to maintain the continuation of travel due to vaccination, but it is possible in the future and if the percentage of injuries rises.” It is dangerous to have to stop flights.”
"We saw people who were indifferent to directions and decided to work with determination," she added.
And the number of injuries among the Israeli soldiers is increasing, as the number of injured reached 27, as of Tuesday.
The newspaper "Maariv" reported that the number of injuries is small, but there is concern in the army due to the doubling of the number of injured soldiers in a short period, and this concern was compounded by the fact that most of the new infected people received a vaccination against Corona.
In practice, more than 80% of soldiers have been vaccinated with the second injection, yet there is infection spreading in several units and bases.
