Israel on December 30 received the first contingent of Pfizer pills against the coronavirus.
The Prime Minister, Naftali Bennett assessed this necessary action at a time when the country is facing a large number of infections as a result of the new variant, Omicron.
“Thanks to our swift action, the pills arrived in Israel faster and will help us overcome this wave of Omicron cases more easily,” Bennett said.
The US Food and Drug Administration last week authorized the Pfizer’s Paxlovid pill for use in people with serious illnesses from the age of 12.
Throughout the tests, it has been confirmed that pill treatment reduces hospitalization cases and deaths by up to 88 percent.
On the other hand, according to the health authorities in Israel on Wednesday, December 29, 4 thousand new cases of coronavirus were registered in the country, the highest percentage since September.
However, there are about 4.2 million Israelis out of a population of 9.4 million who have already been vaccinated with the third dose of the vaccine.
