For the first time in Israel, a case of the Los Angeles variant was discovered in an Israeli who hadn’t been in California or in contact with someone who traveled abroad, the Health Ministry reported on Thursday.

The ministry also reported that there are 444 cases of the South African virus variant in the country.

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu said on Monday that Israel is currently in negotiations with Pfizer and Moderna to purchase vaccines that are effective against the new variants.

Netanyahu added that Israel is planning to establish a vaccine factory in Israel and that if he’s re-elected as prime minister, his “primary mission will be to bring 36 million more vaccines over the next year.”

  1. Did any of the 444 die?
    Does anyone even have symptoms?
    If a high risk person gets symptoms, will that person be given Dr. Zelenko’s protocol, or ivormectin, or left to die, be put on a ventilator etc. to justify the vaccines and lockdowns?
