Israel offers fourth vaccine jab to some health workers
By EUobserver
A hospital in Israel is expected to administer the fourth dose of the Covid-19 vaccine to 150 staff on Monday, Reuters reported. The trial taking place in Sheba Medical Center near Tel Aviv will inform experts about the efficiency of a second booster amid concerns for the spread of the more transmissible Omicron variant. A health ministry panel has recommended giving the fourth dose to those aged 60 and above.
