Israeli prime minister receives vaccine booster
As infections rise once again, Israel is pioneering vaccine booster shots, though the World Health Organization has warned that offering a third dose could contribute to vaccine inequity.
Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett received a booster shot of the COVID-19 vaccine on Friday. He said that receiving a third dose of the vaccine is the best way to defeat the coronavirus.
“Israel is the pioneer of the third dose of the vaccines against the COVID virus,” said Bennett in a statement. “We’re seeing profound effectiveness, efficacy of the vaccines. It's working, it's safe and it's the way to defeat this virus."
