COVID Infections in Israel Spike by 50 Percent
Forty-two percent of Israelis who caught COVID on Monday were vaccinated, spurring concerns over the efficacy of the vaccine against the highly contagious delta variant
The Health Ministry reported 501 new coronavirus cases in Israel on Monday, a 50 percent increase from the previous day. The figure is the highest since March 30, when 571 tested positive for the virus
Out of the new infections on Monday, 42 percent had been vaccinated against the virus. This comes amid concern over the rapid spread of the highly contagious delta variant, which is now responsible for more than 90 percent of Israel’s cases, according to tests of the virus’ genome among confirmed cases.
The percentage of tests that turned out positive also rose from 0.7 percent on Sunday to 0.97 percent on Monday.
Of the new infections, 31 recently returned from abroad and the rest were infected via community transmission. The R number, the average number of secondary infections from a single person, currently stands at 1.43.
Seventy-four patients are hospitalized, 43 percent of whom were fully vaccinated. Five were added on Monday, including three who were vaccinated.

I have not been jabbed. I am currently concerned that the shot is more dangerous than the illness, however I am watching it closely.
To wit, does anyone know the death rate? Infection rate is an interesting data point but the death rate is what matters to me.
Anyone?
Death rate from all causes is 100% We are all on a one-way ticket.
People like Dr. McCullough have said that the variants are less lethal, more contagious.
Dr. Yeadon makes the case that those who’ve had Covid, or other related coronaviruses over the past years will have immunity.
Then, there are highly effective treatments. If concerned,you may want to line up supplies to use, either over the counter or prescription, in case you become ill so you have an immediate solution and don’t have to wait for an appointment. Treatments are more effective when take as soon as symptoms set in.
J&J has two pre-print studies going out for publication on its efficacy based on 8 months of studies. They claim it is roughly 85% effective overall, and confers strong antibody production against the South African and the new Delta variants.
The article in the OP makes a suggestion that the Pfizer vaccine, which was I believe to have been most widely used in Israel, has dropped to the 64% range in terms of overall efficacy. Suggests that whatever benefit it may deliver at first (original claim 95% reduction in severe illness or death) seems to wane rather rapidly considering it’s only been a few months since its released - and its wide adoption by Israelis.
A feature, not a bug. More booster shots.
Possibly so. They have been talking about booster shots since before they were released. My initial thoughts, however, is that given the massive failure that mRNA vaccines have been for the last 15 years that these latest concoctions are designed to be as I said “weak brew” so as to not immediately kill off humans the way the previous attempts at various mRNA type vaccines killed the rabbits, rats, monkeys etc they were tested on. Just a wild guess on my part, but do find it suspicious that after 15 years of failure they “suddenly and miraculously” started working for Covid-19.
1 death from COVID-19 in all of Israel in the past 3.5 weeks. That’s out of over 9 million people living there. COVID-19 is over and done in Israel. They’re back to normal. This is nothing but fearmongering nonsense intended to scare people.
I've seen this claim made, but I've never seen any documentation of any of the trials where an mRNA vaccine killed rabbits, rats, monkeys, and other animals. Could you please provide links to these trials where the animals all died after receiving an mRNA vaccine candidate?
Fair question. Unfortunately, the internet is scrubbed quite frequently by the big tech oligopoly. Here is one place to start:

Which leads to here:

I do accept that these were not mRNA vaccines but rDNA vaccines and whole virus vaccines. The animals were killed primarily because they were just being used to test immune response but side effects did occur upon examination.
I’ll keep looking as I can because it’s a legitimate question.
I know that more than you probably could imagine, but that is not the question I asked. Why would you even do that?
Actually, I am not concerned. I am just curious about the statistics.
