Please look at the rate of infections before and after the vaccination process.
17th January, 2021 104,673 tests; 8583 positive or 8.2% 11th July 51,406 tests; 463 positive or 0.9%
The two shots are supposed to reduce the possibility of someone getting the virus by 85%-90% so around 15% will get it. Of the 15% half will be asymtomatic and it is said 50% less likely to spread the virus.
" Israel, who had brought its numbers closer to zero than ever since the pandemic began is attempting to vaccinate all its citizens with a ‘third Jab’ as an extra precaution against the Delta variant."
Not true, only those with a compromised immune system.
"Israel’s Health Ministry said a third dose of the Pfizer vaccine would be offered to immunocompromised individuals, such as those who have undergone organ transplants. The step follows evidence that the additional shot might increase such patients’ antibody counts, according to a Health Ministry letter sent to Israeli healthcare providers."

Where did you get "all" from? Please check your facts. Where did you get ALL from?
note that the UK is already saying that they are planing for booster shots this winter.
They are still vigourosly pushing vaccinations as they reduce cases and those who do get it are mild cases. That is why they will give booster shots. they are saying that a combination of shots and sanitary measures work.
"These include 58,122 people who have received one dose of the vaccine and 32,945 people who have received both doses."
Soo if 90,000 doses have been adminstered it means 32,945 times 2 (need 2 shots to be fully vaccinated) = 65,890 shots from 90,000 leaves 24,110 who have only one shot for a total of 57,055 with one or two shots. Emmm so how do you get 58,122????
They left Hutchison with the only money maker. GBPA is let off with a free ride.
"All concessions of every and any kind still being enjoyed by Hutchison Whampoa and GBPA should immediately be rescinded." **Trbanon** you got it right.
TheOne of the main reasons is because of our low vaccination rate. Cayman, Bermuda, Turks and Caicos, Barbados and BVI, all miles ahead of us with vaccinating the general public.
High vaccination rates provide a level of comfort.
