Prime Minister Yair Lapid receives a COVID vaccine shot at his office in Tel Aviv.
“I call on citizens of Israel — and particularly those at risk — go out and get vaccinated in light of rising rates of COVID and the flu,” Lapid says in a statement. “This is the only way we can get through this winter easily and healthily and protect our loved ones: mom, dad, grandma and grandpa.”
There are currently 178 people with COVID hospitalized in serious condition in Israel, up from 144 a week ago and 107 a month ago.
