Top Israeli health official on Covid-19: 'I support giving vaccines to our neighbours'

Description

In an interview with FRANCE 24, Israel's head of public health services Dr. Sharon Alroy-Preis analysed the successful Covid-19 vaccination campaign by the Israeli government, with 80 percent of the eligible population already vaccinated against Covid-19. "You can get to a point in this pandemic where you open sectors and the disease goes down," she told us. On the vaccination of the Palestinians, Alroy-Preis said the arrangements with the pharma companies state that "we cannot take the vaccines out of Israel" but insisted she supported "giving vaccines to our neighbours."

  • Why Russians Aren't Raising A Glass To This Particular Health Official

    Russia is in an uproar after a health official said people shouldn't drink alcohol two weeks before and six weeks after getting the COVID-19 vaccine. According to Business Insider, there's no evidence that alcohol consumption is linked to Sputnik V's vaccine efficacy--or any other vaccine's efficacy. However, booze has been found to weaken the immune system. There is a waiting period of 21 days between the first and second Sputnik V shots. Having a strong immune system is especially important during a pandemic, so it may be wise to cut back on alcohol for that reason. The Russians have yet to release their complete, peer-reviewed data from phase 1 and 2 trials of Sputnik V, creating an air of secrecy around the vaccine.

  • Wyoming Health Official's Claim: Vaccines Are Russian, Chinese Bio-Weapons Meant To Spread Communism

    Igor Shepherd is the Readiness and Countermeasures Program Manager for Wyoming's State Health Department. And according to Business Insider, he voiced a rather unorthodox opinion at a nearly ninety-minute talk he gave on November 10th. In it, Shepherd described vaccines as biological weapons and a plot by Russia and China to spread communism worldwide. He made the comments at a November 10 event held by the Keep Colorado Free and Open group, which advocates for constitutional rights amid the pandemic. The plan of destruction right now is going at full speed. Igor Shepherd, Readiness and Countermeasures Program Manager State of Wyoming Shepherd's baseless claims undermine efforts to limit COVID-19's spread and distribute a vaccine. It also props up unscientific 'anti-vaxxer' claims. Johns Hopkins University reports there have been 278,996 US COVID-19 deaths and a 12.5% case rise in Wyoming this week. Wyoming Gov. Mark Gordon has called those who won't take the pandemic seriously 'knuckleheads.'
