Happy New Year!
OneIsrael wishes for you and your family a wonderful year as the world begins to emerge from the shadow of Corona. Be happy and stay healthy; make this your best year ever!
The Daily Corona (Covid-19) Update
Here are the numbers over the last 24 hours (from 8 am yesterday until 8 am today):
423,262 Israelis have been confirmed with the virus since the pandemic began last March.
There are 6,678 newly confirmed cases.
679 are in critical condition—an increase of 57
165 of the most critically ill are on ventilators—an increase of 3
3,325 have died–an increase of 18
There are currently 43,615 active Corona cases in Israel.
About 950,000 Israelis have now been vaccinated,
It is an interesting and distressing phenomenon that as the number of Israelis vaccinated rapidly increases so does the number of newly confirmed cases. Notice also that the number of people who are critically ill is steadily increasing–taking up more beds in already overcrowded hospitals.
