Israel Omicron spike could bring herd immunity but with risks - health boss
Israel's top health adviser says the surge of Omicron cases could see the country reach Covid herd immunity.
What those who are playing SLOTXO need to be most careful about the first thing: don't underestimate playing slots.
Nachmann Ash said the country would pay a price for this and he wanted to see herd immunity achieved via vaccinations instead.
Modellers have warned that up to four million people could be infected by the end of January.
Prime Minister Naftali Bennett has admitted his current policy will not prevent a big rise in infections.
On Sunday, he said a fourth Covid-19 vaccine would be offered to people over 60 as well as medical staff.
The prime minister has previously insisted the aim is to prevent a spike in serious illness while keeping the economy open, even though he has not ruled out another lockdown.
Confirmed daily infections in Israel have quadrupled to more than 3,500 in 10 days, but the number of deaths has not seen a similar rise.
Herd immunity is a scientific term describing the point at which a population is protected from a disease, either by enough people being vaccinated or by people having developed antibodies by having the disease.
Prof Ash said a surge in Omicron cases was inevitable.
"The price of herd immunity is very many infections, and that may end up happening. The numbers need to be high to reach herd immunity, it's something that is possible," he said.
"But we don't want to reach it by means of infections, we want it to happen as a result of many people vaccinating."
Salman Zarka, head of the health ministry's coronavirus taskforce, said herd immunity was not guaranteed. |
