Israel will start the 4th dose of the vaccine!
According to the “Oriental Daily News”, Israel has had its first death of Omicron, so it was decided to vaccinate the fourth dose of vaccine for seniors over 60 years old. However, this decision still needs to be formally approved by Israeli senior health officials.
Israel was the first country in the world to receive the third dose of vaccine and will continue to be the first country to receive the fourth dose of vaccine.
The fourth dose of vaccine can be started at least 4 months after the third dose of vaccine. Elderly people, frontliner, and people with immunodeficiency are eligible to receive the fourth dose of vaccine.
Initially, experts thought that the fourth dose of vaccine would be required after 12 months, but the emergence of Omicron variant strains will cause countries to start the fourth dose of vaccine in advance.
