Israel becomes the first country in the world to give 4th dose of COVID vaccine to its people. The fourth dose of COVID vaccine will be provided to citizens above 60 years of years. The 4th dose has been quickly implemented and regulated the government of Israel in order to curb the danger of Omicron variant of COVID. Few days back the first patient suffering from Omicron died in Israel. So the government has taken swift steps to reduce the panic and deaths and infections related to Omicron COVID virus.
A Health Ministry expert panel recommended the fourth shot, a decision that was swiftly welcomed by Prime Minister Naftali Bennett as “great news that will help us overcome the Omicron wave that is spreading around the world.”
Although the decision is pending formal approval by senior health officials, Bennett urged Israelis to get the dose as soon as possible, saying: “My message is – don’t waste time, go get vaccinated.” The decision follows the first known death in Israel of a patient with the Omicron variant. An Israeli hospital on Tuesday confirmed the death but said he had suffered from a number of serious pre-existing conditions.
