Foreigners in Israel’s largest city have begun receiving vaccinations against COVID-19. Israel has had one of the most successful vaccination campaigns in the world, though there has been controversy.
Dozens of asylum seekers and foreign workers received their first vaccine doses in Tel Aviv on Tuesday. They included people from the Philippines, Moldova, Nigeria, Sudan and Eritrea, the Associated Press reported.
