Worldwide, vaccination is being considered a major weapon to prevent corona infection. Now good news has also come out from Israel regarding vaccination. Research by the Ministry of Health here has revealed that 80% of people who get the vaccine do not spread the virus to others even after getting corona infected. The Israeli government has done this research by taking samples of people who reached restaurants, gyms, event halls, and music concerts.

According to the Times of Israel report, research has revealed that 10% of people who have taken a dose of the vaccine spread the infection to one person, while 3% of the vaccinated people transmit the virus to 2 or 3 people. There is no clear data about the remaining 7% of people. They may or may not spread the infection. However, it has not been made clear in the report how many people have been researched.

Green pass required for traveling

A green pass has been made mandatory for traveling in Israel. This decision has been taken after seeing the huge crowd of people at big events. It is available to people who have had both doses of the vaccine. To participate in any major program in Israel, one has to show a green pass or a negative report of the Kovid test conducted 72 hours before. Soon there are plans to implement the Green Pass in sports events, restaurants, conferences and tourist attractions, and places of worship.

10 lakh people refused to get the vaccine

Till now, the government had the facility to conduct free tests in Israel. But Prime Minister Naftali Bennett has said that now people who do not get the vaccine will have to get the corona test done at their own expense. He has said that the money of taxpayers will not be wasted. Money will be spent on those who do not want to get the vaccine.

Actually, about 1 million (10 lakh) people of Israel have refused to get the vaccine. The government believes that due to these people, there may be an increase in corona cases in the country. If the cases increase, then the lockdown may have to be imposed for the fourth time in the whole of Israel.
