WATCH: Statement by Prime Minister Naftali Bennett regarding administering a third dose of the COVID Vaccine to Israeli citizens over the age of 60.
PM: "The battle against COVID is a global effort, and it's vital that we all share information with each other. The expert committee at the Ministry of Health officially approved the recommendation of giving a third booster dose of the COVID vaccine to Israeli citizens over 60.
The decision was based on considerable research and analysis, as well as the rise in risk of the Delta variant wave. Israel has already vaccinated 2,000 immunosuppressed people with a third dose with no severe adverse events.
PM Bennett: "Now we're rolling out a national third dose campaign. We will share all the information we have with the rest of the global community as we make progress. "
