Israel saw yet another rise in the number of serious coronavirus cases on Sunday as the country's booster jab campaign for people over 60 began over the weekend.

Sunday's number of serious cases, which now stands at 212, is the highest since April. There are currently 37 patients on ventilators, and 37 in critical condition.

it's a gd idea to start the 3rd jab soon, so we'll know it helps or not

it won’t help as it is the same vaccine they used in the 1st and 2nd jabs. Why do they need the 3rd jab? because the protection level has dropped sharply 6 months after vaccination, must boost before ot drops to zero.

Seriously they need new vaccines that can fight Delta effectively, the current vaccines are designed to fight original Covid viruses.

3rd wont reduce much.... let's face it.

Israel’s strategy failed, its daily cases are at 1500-2000 level, much worse than Spore now.
