Health ministry official says vaccinations will only make headway in March
Dr. Sharon Alroy-Preis, the Health Ministry’s acting head of public health, is telling the coranavirus cabinet that while vaccinations will start to be given out in the next few weeks, it will be months that we start to see any effects from them.
“The arrival of the doses and vaccination on a significant scale will only occur in March. This is assuming they are effective and the public responds,” she says, according to leaks from the meeting.
She also says that Israel should not rely on the vaccine alone for its pandemic exit strategy.
