TEL AVIV—About half of adults infected in an outbreak of the Delta variant of Covid-19 in Israel were fully inoculated with the Pfizer Inc. vaccine, prompting the government to reimpose an indoor mask requirement and other measures to contain the highly transmissible strain.
Preliminary findings by Israeli health officials suggest about 90% of new infections were likely caused by the Delta variant, according to Ran Balicer, who leads an expert advisory panel on Covid-19 for the government. Children under 16, most of whom haven’t been vaccinated, accounted for about half of those infected, he said.
The government this week expanded its vaccination campaign to include all 12- to 15-year-olds after a jump in infections among schoolchildren in a town in central Israel. It has since quickly spread geographically and to other groups of the population.
Israel is now reassessing its Covid-19 regulations after moving to open up its society and economy following multiple lockdowns last year.

OMG it’s a cold!
What I want to know is, in those who are fully vaccinated who tested positive, how many actually got SICK..if no one got sick from the virus, than who cares if they tested positive..people test positive all the time for rona, if they have minor to no symptoms than who cares
RE: Delta Variant Outbreak in Israel Infects Some Vaccinated Adults [”some” = half of all infections]
Some questions:
1) How severe are the infections ( vaccinated or unvaccinated )? Has anybody died?
2) Are their hospitals being filled and under pressure?
they cared enough to shutdown our society, eviscerate civil liberties, and rig an election to get rid of the President.
No risk from variants:
According to Dr. Yeadon, former chief science officer for PFizer's allergy and respiratory disease division, people who recovered from SARS1 in 2003 were recently tested (exposed) with SARS1 again and found to still retain their immunity after 17 years. They didn't become ill.
Those same people were tested with Covid-19 and were also found to be immune. SARS1 and SARS2(Covid) were only 22% different (genome) so their immune systems recognized and defeated Covid infection.
The variants are only 1 - 2% different (genome) and so those who have had Covid or similar coronavirus infections are immune to variants.
Variant talk is to explain away deaths among the vaccinated.
Hmmm ... it appears the “vaccines” apply immunity only to the manufacturers ... not so much to the covid cooties.
The Fauci Fungus.
Hate to break it to all these governments which are so gung-ho about vaccinating everyone including the dog, but there is a good probability by vaccinating during a pandemic, they’ve created the perfect conditions for gain-of-function “in the wild”.
The vaccine was highly targeted to the original strain, so it likely was very effective at killing the original strain, but any mutations, especially the more transmissible, then survive and thrive.
OOOH!
Push the FEAR!
How many got seriously ill? How many died?
Pfizer’s advertised efficacy is obviously in question in the ‘real’ world. And children are getting enlarged hearts to boot.
OMG it’s a cold!
This is the 10th time this has been posted. Fear mongering.
Israel 7-Day Death Average Toll from COVID is ZERO! Let’s panic.
Some? Lol it is 50%. Which means the vaccine is doing nothing. All risk, no reward.
Meanwhile there are proven, reliable, cheap, historically safe treatments available. This should, in a sane world, force the removal of emergency use authorization from these experimental “vaccines”.
Couple of days ago, an article said it was young, unvaxxed people that were most of the new cases.
Don’t you have anything better to do in your life than post this crap?
I think it’s time for Israelis to get their booster shot. Jab the kids too.
That “cold” has killed a whole lot of people (north of 600,000 in the US alone), including several I personally knew.
The most recent that I personally knew was 51 years old when he died OF COVID. Yeah, he didn’t believe it, either. Thought it was all “overblown” and “a big hoax”. So went on with his life. Went to restaurants and bars. Whined about masks constantly and probably didn’t use them consistently.
His pulse ox was 82 the night before he died. My PT guy when I told him the story said “basically, your organs are shutting down at that pulse ox level since they’re starved for oxygen”. Lungs filled with goo the consistency of concrete. Couldn’t get a good breath and died gasping for air.
Not a fun way to go, but keep calling it a “cold”. I don’t know too many “colds” that kill you like COVID can kill you.
And yet if your friend had gotten treatment from HCQ or Ivermectin he might have survived. Certainly 600,000 people did not die of Covid , way too many were counted as such when the truth is they didn’t.
Even the manufacturer of Invermectin (Merck) has publicly stated (paraphrasing)..”our scientists have been studying Invermectin as either a preventative and/or cure for COVID and to-date have found that it does ZERO to either protect against or cure COVID”. That statement can easily be found on their website with a simple Google search.
Since Merck could literally stand to make BILLIONS OF DOLLARS by selling a new (and simpler) preventative or cure for COVID, I’m pretty confident they’d be pushing like crazy for approval to market it that way if it indeed did ANYTHING for COVID.
Ditto HCQ.
Probably none otherwise we would hear about it..testing positive is different than actually having symptoms..this is nothing more than covid porn
