The Health Ministry states that two patients with measles traveled by public transportation last week.
The patients took a bus from Petah Tikva to Bnei Brak at 7:16 a.m., and then returned from Bnei Brak to Petah Tikva at 2:45 p.m. on October 28 and October 29.
Also, on October 29, one of the patients was in an event hall in Jerusalem, 6 Dover Shalom Street, starting at 7 p.m.
On October 30, the patients took a bus from Jerusalem to Bnei Brak at 12 a.m., and then a bus from Bnei Brak to Petah Tikva. At 9 a.m., the patients took a bus from Petah Tikva to Tel Aviv, and then the train from Tel Aviv to Herzliya at 1:15 p.m.
Passengers who were in those places are asked to ensure that they are vaccinated in accordance with the ministry’s recommendations.
Individuals can update their vaccination status via the government’s personal website through the digital vaccination register.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
