Health official disputes media claim of shortage in syringes for COVID vaccine
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleDr. Miri Mizrahi-Reuveni, the director of the Maccabi HMO’s health division, tells Army Radio that Maccabi clinics will be ready to go ahead with vaccinating 25,000 people starting December 20, when Israel could potentially start a mass inoculation effort. The official start date in December 27, but reports and officials have said it could be pushed forward.
Mizrahi-Reuveni contradicts a Channel 12 report from several days ago that alleged that there is a significant shortage of syringes to administer the coronavirus vaccine.
“We don’t know of any shortage of syringes, we are getting prepared,” she says.
