As of Motzei Shabbos, 324 people were in serious condition from coronavirus infection, up from 257 on Thursday. Serious infections are a key metric used by decision-makers in the current wave.

The death toll also jumped, to 6,535, with 16 fatalities recorded over the weekend.

This is 100% bennett’s fault, since he is peacefully allowing arabs to travel to Turkey & back to Israel, and allowing gay parades to convene unabated.
Bennett has to go and be replaced by Netanyahu.
Bennett wears that funny little crocheted disc on the back of his head to cover the hole in his head. He is a total stooge.
The facts are mispresented here. Most of the seriously ill were already ill and have had positive PCR tests, which does not mean they have covid. Additionally, 95% of people in the hospital allegedly with covid were vaccinated. That’s just to start off – as you dig deeper, you see more and more lies and distortions.
@147 that’s a pretty unintelligent statement. Those two things have nothing to do with COVID and Netanyahu didn’t stop them any more or less than Bennett.
@Anonymous did you know 80% of statistics are made up on the spot?
This just goes to show that getting vaccinated and wearing those stupid masks 24/7 didn’t help diddly squat.
The covid-19 shots seem to be very effective…I’m sure the booster shot will make it even more effective…lining many people’s pocket with money.
