Israel’s coronavirus infections rate stands at 1.73%, according to Health Ministry data. Of the 105,742 people who tested for the virus Wednesday, 1,732 were found to have contracted the disease. The reproduction rate is 0.75.
The average daily number of new infections this week is 1,816 compared to 3,034 last week.
Israel has 22,107 active cases of the virus. There are 403 people in serious condition, the lowest number recorded since Aug. 10. Of those in serious condition, 168 of whom are on ventilators.
Although 1,281,882 Israelis have recovered from the virus since the outbreak of the pandemic, 7,959 have died.
Seventy-five percent of those in serious condition are unvaccinated, according to Health Ministry data.
On the vaccination front, 3,797,909 Israelis have received all three available doses of the coronavirus vaccine. Over 6 million Israelis – 6,195,018 – have received at least one dose, while 5,692,325 have received two doses of the vaccine.
While Israel has been a pioneer on the vaccination front, the tiny Pacific nation of Palau has the world’s highest percentage of people vaccinated against COVID-19, according to data released by the Red Cross Thursday.
Fully 99% of Palau’s population over 12 has had both shots of vaccine for the new coronavirus, the International Federation of Red Cross said, citing government figures that also show that this amounts to 16,152 people.
That puts Palau, an archipelago of 500 islands in the western Pacific Ocean, in the “top spot,” the IFRC said in a statement.
Nebraska Attorney Gen. just released a legal review allowing IVM and HCQ to be used in treatment of Covid!! This is a HUGE victory!! He notes that no one should be placed under review if they are prescribing these drugs with consent and under appropriate dosages with recognition of concurrent illnesses…all very routine. The opinion also examines the history of each drug, and the medical manipulation that has taken place over the past 20months related to these drugs, some of these details are likely unknown to many including the many manipulations associated with the publications and meta data analyses, so it is worth reading. The opinion is nearly 50pages, just FYI
Nebraska has had a small outbreak that has largely stalled with cases dropping from ~800+ to ~600+ today. Watch that disappear as theses treatments are prescribed.
Here are some of the concluding remarks
https://ago.nebraska.gov/opinions/prescription-ivermectin-or-hydroxychloroquine-label-medicines-prevention-or-treatment-covid
The conclusion is that:
1) it is possible to experiment on humans but the experiment cannot be called CONTROLLED unless these humans are, in fact, confined in a concentration camp and very closely monitored;
2) the data on this particular experiment is so muddled by lies, distortions, attempts at CYA (e.g., Dr. Schwartz is not an idiot, he knows what works and what doesn’t, he doesn’t wan’t to ruin his life and career by stating the truth), unknown and hidden actions by everyone involved that nothing and no one can be trusted at this point except for the victims and for those who told the truth from the beginning such as the Frontline Doctors, etc.;
3) the only true outcome can be gauged by the number of people who will know someone among their friends and relatives who had COVID, had complications of COVID, or died of COVID vs. the number of the same people whose friends or relatives had complications from the vaccine or died of it (but, of course, it will be just “anecdotal evidence”). The long-term outcomes will never be tied to the vaccines.
4) The official numbers are not to be trusted because they reinvent them weekly if not daily to suit their agenda and manipulate the public’s minds into taking the vaccine which isn’t, so there is no point in following the numbers (other than watching the vaccinated people you know).

@Peloni I am not necessarily convinced that the Green Pass has reduced the spread but am open to this as a possibility.
@Bear
Your question of the Green pass is an interesting one. I am curious how you believe the Green pass has reduced the spread of disease. This is not rhetorical hyperbole, I am curious. The Green Pass, correct me if I am wrong, is not synonymous with immunity, which is required to prevent contagion. Being vaccinated is not remotely the same as being immune, and I believe the overwhelming number of people with Green passes are vaccinated and not Covid recovered. The vaccinated have been shown to be unsymptomatic while infectious under several studies beginning with the study out of Vietnam and discussed in the outbreak in Israel where 96% of people were vaccinated(https://www.eurosurveillance.org/content/10.2807/1560-7917.ES.2021.26.39.2100822#html_fulltext). Just curious for your insights, or corrections of my understanding if I am in error.

While it is a positive result that cases, meaning positive PCR results, are resolving and the death rate is finally lower, but still above the rate on the day the 3rd jab began, it should not be forgotten that we are 10wks post-3rd jab. Still, benefits must be judged in comparison with other treatment options based on outcomes and associated risks. By doing so, the 3rd jab seems not to have had the quick benefit associated with early treatment alone. Also, the deaths that followed the 3rd jab protocol should be parsed out to determine how many of these “unvaccinated” victims were actually injected with the vax prior to their deaths. Til we know this, we are only assuming that none died from the vaccination program base on an assumption that the vaccines don’t cause deaths, which is very poor logic.
Additionally, the length of benefits from the 3rd jab will not be known from this nation-wide experiment, hopefully for years, but more likely months. It should be understood that vaccines are not treatments, but preventatives. The test of the measles vaccine is to prevent the disease without harming the vaccinated subject. The track record on the initial inoculations of the vax has been very poor on both these points, thus far. So, we will have to wait to see what comes from this recent nation-wide experiment of the 3rd jab.
Best we make decisions base on fair evaluations and for this we need fairly evaluated results. Unfortunately, the shareholders collect the data, analyze the data and share the data in the manner they choose, without any independent evaluation or oversight.

Irrespective of anyone’s support for or against the vaccine or IVM, if they are employing IVM in treatment at any stage it has a significant bearing on the outcome of the disease and this would strongly muddy the outcome of the reduction in the sick and dying people to whatever level this or other valid treatments were being employed, especially if it is employed early and to a lesser extent if it is employed late in treatment.
Over the months in which the vaccines have displayed a failing performance(April-present), the CDC has redefined the benefit of the vaccine from being preventing disease to limiting disease to limiting death, even as Delta has dominated and Delta simply has a less lethal outcome, this is true everywhere, with or without vaccine therapy. In light of this everchanging benefit of the vaccines, the CDC has most recently identified the benefit of the vaccines to be related to its ability to reduce illness and limit disease. These markers are directly influenced by the use of Ivermectin in every nation in which it is employed. This is true for the period that it is employed and disappears after its use is discontinued(eg, see Peru[https://peckford42.wordpress.com/2021/02/09/in-peru-ivermectin-cut-covid-deaths-by-75-in-6-weeks-cheap-safe-and-quite-ignored/] and others). So if Israel is using IVM or other treatments, it is directly related to the outcome of disease, again to the level by which it is being employed. This is not a pro-vax or anti-vax opinion. It’s just a fact, and one that must be quantified and evaluated for its effect upon the mile marker of the day relating the benefit of the vaccines.
Regarding the reduction in cases in Israel’s 3rd jab protocol, the reduction is undeniable, but it has much to be desired when compared to the use of IVM cocktail in India which had its effects in about a week. Meanwhile, the precipitous rise in deaths associated with the 3rd jab protocol(3/day to 27/day on worldometer.com in less than a month) is also undeniable. Furthermore, no such precipitous rise in deaths took place in India, but quite the opposite effect was seen(https://www.arcgis.com/apps/dashboards/bda7594740fd40299423467b48e9ecf6). In fact, following the new guidelines issued on April 22 describing the IVM cocktail(https://www.thehindubusinessline.com/resources/resources/article34390135.ece/binary/COVID19_Management__22042021_v1.pdf), cases began droping on April 25 and deaths began dropping on May 2(https://www.arcgis.com/apps/dashboards/bda7594740fd40299423467b48e9ecf6), precipitously, and the outbreak was 97% resolved in 5wks in areas where this treatment was employed. Furthermore, the cases and deaths continued to be unresolved in Indian states where vaccines were employed without treatments.

@Ted, I post a different question to you which may not be popular but is believed to have a serious effect on the reduction of the spread of Covid-19 in Israel besides for the vaccine and booster shot. The Green Pass system is believed to have helped reduce the spread of Covid-19.
So Ted, do you think the Green Pass system has helped curtail the spread of Covid-19 in Israel?
Health Ministry figures published Friday morning showed 1,325 new cases were identified nationwide the previous day, down from more than 10,000 a day at the height of the wave in August and September. The rate of positive tests — 1.4 percent out of nearly 90,000 tests — is the lowest seen in almost three months. Vaccine Booster is working and so is the vaccine in Israel. Ted, hopefully you have been vaccinated!!
@Ted
A very important question. The implications of Ivermectin usage in Israel represent an enormous confounding factor for the 3rd jab protocol, for which there is large size trial work prior to the nation wide experiment. The confounding effect would be greater if given early in treatment, however, Ivermectin, unlike hydroxychloroquine, has a beneficial effect even if administered late in treatment, though reduced from its benefit when applied early in treatment.
Dr. Schwartz who did the study on Ivermectin, says for prevention he clearly prefers the vaccine. Much of the world does not have it and in that case Ivermectin should be used, he says.
https://www1.cbn.com/cbnnews/israel/2021/october/israeli-doctor-claims-ivermectin-could-help-treat-covid-urges-more-research
To my knowledge Ivermetcin is ONLY used AFTER one has Covid and not in lieu of vaccine in Israel.
The Vaccine Booster’s are working very well in Israel as the infection rate is going down daily and so are the amount of very sick or dying people.
It should be noted that “75 percent” of “serious” cases is a smaller figure than the “97 percent of cases” being among the unvaccinated, as claimed in a Pfitzer in-house study endorsed by the Ministry of health. And it is much less than the “99 percent of cases” that the CDC and Dr. Fauci have claimed are among unvaccinated people. These shifting statistics are in my view suspicious.
https://healthfeedback.org/claimreview/incorrect-vaccine-administration-is-a-potential-cause-of-post-vaccine-adverse-effects-but-more-research-is-still-needed-to-confirm-or-reject-this-hypothesis/
This article in Google’s fact-check site health feedback.org grudgingly admits that “scientists have found an association” between the vaccines and “heart disease and bloodclots,” while still maintaining that “such occurrences are rare.” The article is filled with obfuscations and evasions, and concentrates on discussions of an experiment on mice that it characterizes as “inconclusive.” It characterizes several prepublished studies of adverse reactions to the vaccines in humans as also “inconclusive.” But toward the end of the article, with all its evasions and obfuscations, that there is an association between the vaccines and myocarditis in “young people.” Despite all the weasel-wording and efforts to change the subject, the article is significant in that it does admit that there is some association between the Covid19 vaccines and serious illnesses. It suggests to me that the medical and political establishments are having trouble persuading even themselves that the vaccines are safe.
@Ted Belman
Of course, it is possible but –
There is so much lying, worthless studies, terminology and definition changing and differences in definitions between countries, possible unknown placebo and the “banned” remedies use, and incompetent and unethical behavior by the “medical professionals” which could cause the number of deaths to increase dramatically that no one except, possibly, Pfizer and Israel’s MOH will ever know the true effect of the “vaccines”.
The people that got the real jab and no banned medications and people who know them will also be made increasingly aware of the effects of what they were jabbed with but not in scientific/statistical terms, of course.
Is it possible that Ivermectin is used more widely than know in Israeli hospitals and the encourage drop in infections has more to do with that than with the effectiveness of the vaccinations?
@Bear

They really should start using this everywhere. There is no cost, no risk and a measurable benefit, especially when you see what happened in India and Japan.
@Peloni what were the results of the Meta-data study?
@Peloni that is my understanding about Ivermecticn. I am not familiar with all the protocols at all the hospitals. I believe Sheba is using it. I think that is Israeli’s largest hospital.
Thanks Bear. I have read Schwartz’s study. It was an important trial that was included in the Meta-data study done earlier this summer. I had not heard of the study in Oxford yet.
Did I understand your comment correctly? Are they actually employing Ivermectin in the hospitals currently in Israel as far as you are aware, ie outside of drug trials?
@ Peloni – Oxford University included Ivermectin in a study of several drugs.

@ Peloni, Check out Schwartz here if you have time. He works at Sheba Tel HaShomer, a very large hospital in Tel Aviv (perhaps its best). https://www.shebaonline.org/new-sheba-study-indicates-that-ivermectin-can-reduce-the-length-of-covid-19-infection/
Unblinded Randomized Control Trial on melatonins showed strong support for its use as therapy in reducing blood clots, sepsis and deaths
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1201971221007980
Study was small but the results on reduction of death and sepsis were very strong. This confirms previous findings with melatonin, but larger studies should be employed to further confirm. Melatonin is a very safe nutriceutical that also helps modulate blood pressure.
@Bear
I know about Schwartz’ RCT a few months back, and it was very encouraging, though a small study as I recall. Do you know more than that they are using IVM? For example, when they are using it(early or late treatment) or are they using it with other drugs or have they just started using it? Quite frankly, the data coming out of Israel is very inconsistent with IVM usage as compared to other nations employing it. If you have any info or more I could read on the specifics, I’d be very appreciative to learn more about this.
Very good to hear that they are using other non-FDA/CDC approved treatments, very good.
Are the numbers suggested in this article science fiction or are Israelis a different form oh humanity to those in America?
In the USA those numbers can be reversed.
Evidently the media in Israel could make the NY Times & the Washington Post in America look like truth speakers by comparison
Israel uses Ivermectin in treatments and did a study proving that it works.
Is IL denying access to HCQ, Z pack, Ivermectin, Doxycycline etc….?
Looks like.
So says the ministry. This Ministry has already been seen to have, let us say, an awkward relationship with transparency and the truth. In a paper, published in Eurosurveillance, a journal published by the European Centers for Disease Control, we see that in a certain hospital in TA that was not exactly the case.
