Bennett says number of Israelis getting booster shot will hit 1 million tomorrow
Prime Minister Naftali Bennett visits Tel Aviv’s Ichilov hospital and says that tomorrow, the number of Israelis who have received their COVID-19 booster shots will pass 1 million.
“Israeli citizens are the only ones in the world who can get vaccinated for the third time,” Bennett tells reporters, calling on all citizens aged 50 and up to get the dose since failing to do so poses “mortal danger.”
