Reversing course, the organization representing Israel’s pediatricians is urging postpone the plan to exempt from quarantine schoolchildren who came into contact with a COVID carrier
Haaretz, Jan. 26, 2022
Israel has seen another rise in serious COVID-19 cases, the Health Ministry said Wednesday, the day before the country is set to exempt schoolchildren from quarantine if they are exposed to a carrier.
Meanwhile, the organization representing Israel’s pediatricians reversed course on Wednesday and urged that plans to exempt school students from quarantine be put on hold.
Israel’s COVID dashboard crashes. We’ve entered a new phase
“We’re waving a red flag,” the chairman of the Israel Pediatric Association, Prof. Tzahi Grossman, told Kan Reshet Bet public radio on Wednesday. “It’s still not too late to change the decision.”
According to Tuesday’s data, Israel now has 888 serious cases, of which 187 are on ventilators. In addition, a full 76,017 people tested positive for the virus and the rate of positive tests stood at 21.83 percent.
The R number – the average number of people each coronavirus carrier infects – now stands at 1.17.
The R number is calculated from data from the previous 10 days, and any number above 1 indicates that the virus is actively spreading.
The 6 percent unvaccinated adults over age 60 account for 32 percent of serious cases and 35 percent of COVID deaths this past month.
Per capita, for every vaccinated serious case over age 60, there are 8 unvaccinated serious cases. For every death of a vaccinated person, there are 8 deaths of unvaccinated individuals.
The average number of people dying from coronavirus complications has witnessed a steep hike over the past days, hitting 40 deaths a day, the Health Ministry said on Tuesday.
At the height of the third COVID wave in Israel a year ago, daily deaths peaked at about 60, and remained under 30 during the delta wave late last year. Since the pandemic erupted in Israel, 8,502 people have died from coronavirus complications.
So far, 4,431,086 have received the booster shot and 611,073 have received a fourth jab.
On Tuesday, the expert panel advising the Health Ministry on the coronavirus recommended offering a fourth shot to Israelis aged 18 and above, on condition that five months have passed since they received a third shot or recovered from the disease.
The recommendation, which will expand Israel’s limited fourth vaccine rollout for Israelis above 60 and at-risk adults, still awaits approval by the Health Ministry director-general before implementation.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6kmm70ji5c&t=1122s. I recommend in the strongest possible terms that we all watch this video of Dr. Scott Atlas lecturing in the Washington DC campus of Hillsdale College. Dr. Atlas, who is one of the world’s leading experts on Covid, the vaccines and related matters, lucidly explains what genuine scientific researchers have revealed about the effects of the lockdowns and the vaccines on ordinary people, and the gross exaggeration of the lethal effects of Covid19 itself by WHO, the CDC, world governments etc. He demonstrates beyond all reasonable doubt that the cures have inflicted far more deaths than the disease.
This lecture is on YouTube. I have no idea how Google let it be shown on Youtube. Up till now they have done a pretty effective job of banning the critics of official Covid19 policies from Youtube. Maybe enough of the public has become “infected” by the facts disseminated by the official-policy critics that they decided it was no longer profitable to exclude the opposition’s views from YouTube, and give Rumble and Telegram a complete monopoly on this content.
This is all BS to pretend that the restrictions cannot be lifted.
There is no way to protect anyone from any virus other than forcing everyone on Earth to wear hazmat suits.
A 38min highlight taken from the 5hr Senate on a Second Opinion to Covid Response hearing:

There is much more covered in the hearing, but for those unable to watch it all, watch this. Regardless of what you may believe about the vaccines, lockdowns or masks, pursuing a second opinion on medical issues is never a bad idea.
In all their nightmare scenarios, they have had the ability to protect the children, protect the elderly and end their repeated role of playing the inept stewards of public safety by simply using early treatment. So terrified are they that the children will be exposed that they lock them up in homes where the virus is known to spread more readily.
Regarding the elderly, they are so fearful of the unvaccinated that they will soon push a 4th injection which was designed to provide very focused protection against a part of the virus that has not been around for 2yrs. They also ignore the reality that the elderly who are not taking the injection are nearly all compromised due to severe health problems, so they are in quite fragile health, so anything will destabilize them, virus or vaccine. Whereas it is readily recognized by proponents of the Vax that population based comparisons must be corrected due to age, so the elderly do not distort reality, they ignore the need to correct by health status within the elderly which very strongly distorts reality – they do so because it supports their vaccine dependency narrative.
And yet every age group could benefit from being treated with early medical intervention with safe generic cocktails. This would be especially true among the elderly and the most ill, whose immunity is compromised to begin with.
Some may be disposed to accept their govt’s assertion that they are only acting to protect the many, but instead of accepting the assertions of these politicians who lie for a living, the public should be questioning their officials as to why they are not treating the disease early as has worked everywhere it has been employed. If one life could be spared by doing so, would it not be enough?
