PM’s son, 9, gets COVID vaccine as Israel officially launches shots for ages 5-11
(Worthy News) – Israel officially launched its coronavirus vaccination campaign on Tuesday for children aged 5-11, hoping to stem the spread of COVID-19 in schools and patch the largest remaining gap in its drive for national immunity from the pandemic.
Among the first to receive the shot Tuesday was David Bennett, 9, who was brought to a vaccination clinic by his father, Prime Minister Naftali Bennett.
“Today we are starting the nationwide campaign to vaccinate children, first of all to safeguard our children. David was just vaccinated. This safeguards both children and parents, and the entire State of Israel,” the elder Bennett said. “It works, it’s safe and I call on all Israeli parents to come and have their children vaccinated.” [ Source: Times of Israel (Read More…) ]
