Israel is now the world’s Covid hotspot
Israel has become the Covid capital of the world despite leading the charge on vaccines, in a clear warning sign that Britain, the US and other highly-immunised nations are still vulnerable to another wave.
Stats compiled by Oxford University-backed research team Our World in Data shows there were a record 1,892 Covid cases per million people in Israel on Wednesday — nearly 0.2 per cent of the entire population in a single day.
That was significantly higher than second worst-hit Mongolia, where the rate was 1,119 per million, and double the figures for Kosovo (980), Georgia (976) and Montenegro (909), which rounded out the top five.
The figure only looks at one day’s worth of tests and Israel’s high rate is thought to have been driven up by a huge testing push ahead of schools reopening there.
But the country has consistently reported some of the highest infection rates in the world since mid-August amid an unprecedented third wave, despite being one of the most vaccinated nations in the world.
For comparison, 522 people per million in the UK tested positive yesterday and the figure was closer to 595 in the US. It suggests protection gained from vaccines is starting to buckle in the face of the highly-transmissible Delta variant.
While Israel is seeing record case numbers in its fourth wave, the jabs are still protecting against severe illness with Covid deaths running at about half of the level of its second wave, even though fatalities have risen sharply in the last month.
Israel has been offering booster jabs to people over the age of 60 since July, and data suggests the scheme has helped to curb rising hospital admissions. The country has since expanded the top-up drive to everyone over 12 who has already had two doses.
With Israel acting as the ‘canary in the mine’, the UK has been urged to ‘stop hanging around’ and launch a mass booster jab programme to avoid a deadly wave this winter.
But the Government’s advisory panel has yet to sign off on the plans — leaving the country lagging behind Israel and the US, which is also offering third injections to everyone given two doses.
Prominent SAGE member Neil ‘Master of Disaster’ Ferguson today said he expected a surge in cases in winter but is unsure if it will be large enough to warrant rolling back restrictions. Other experts fear the return of schools in England this week and next will cause infections to explode.

Christians might want to think about what being “chosen” means. You really don’t want to be “chosen”. Especially not by the political, subjugating, authoritarian scripture used by govts. Older versions have varied names such as “The bible”.
I initially a more realistic phrase…”ash The bible”. But then I would have to explain that you have to burn the bible first. So for brevity I decided to intentionally mistype.

That’s just a joke hey. About… pogroms and fodder for the shoah.
You don’t really have to burn your bible. You should give it to a hobo. Could help keep him warm for a little while AND delegate your bible burning tendencies for efficiency reasons.

Sorry, I never read and type at the same time, I mean who has time for that?
Luckily, thanks to my latest zombiedronerobosheepclone booster upgrade I’m closer to the final v0.666 physiological solution. It’s been wonderful, as soon as I got my latest booster upgrade I felt like I was on my way to Mars thanks to the new technological breakthrough infections that design my body the way mRNAture intended.
Thanks to totalitarian corporate philanthropy, decisions are made for, and through me, faster than ever before AND all of that… without having to utilize the obsoleted process previously known as thought!
Oh…wait, I just got an exciting new signal from my nearest 5g controller, or more colloquially, Parent….and apparently I’m an astronaut now! Apparently I’ve been voluntarily enlisted to go Mars without even having to consent! And, I’ve just been informed that Mars is now interchangeably spelled with a W (thanks to efforts of politicized correctional services).

Drop your dealer, she’s fed you falsehoods in her stew
Her satanic mindset will cast you hind at queue
Lift your eyes toward Heaven to receive the proper view
And cease your denigration of the chosen Jew

I do not think there is another wave as there really wasn’t a first wave. We are seeing what the vaxxes can do and it isn’t good.

The jab’s saving grace is the halving the number of deaths…except people forget that the most vulnerable where unfortunately wiped out in the previous wave…we have no placebo test to prove that the deaths are lower because of the vaccine.
People also forget the potential long term effects of the jab, even if the death rate looks better now.
