The anti-vaccine current is beginning to take its place in Israel too
“Those who are not vaccinated put us all in danger and are a burden on our health system,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, as the number of immunizations decreased in Israel last week. On the other hand, the number of illnesses reached its lowest level since late December, and the number of seriously ill patients fell below 1,000 on Thursday, for the first time since January.

Officials are working to persuade people to get vaccinated, including by fighting fake news spread online or through various incentives and benefits. According to Channel 12, officials want to limit access to those who refuse to be vaccinated in gyms, hotels, restaurants, cultural and sporting events, while vaccinators could enjoy free admission.
