A state of anxiety prevails among Israelis, following the announcement by the Israeli Ministry of Health of the near depletion of vaccines for HIV vaccination flu Seasonality, which claimed at least 10 lives in a week, including children and youth.
The Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper reported that influenza vaccines have already run out from several health centers and hospitals in Israel, warning the newspaper that approximately 4 million Israelis have not received vaccinations at a time when the Ministry of Health confirms that the current flu wave is the most aggressive in years. It is still in its infancy.
The newspaper pointed out that some of the victims did not have any medical history, while dozens of patients were transferred to hospitals, some of them in critical condition, in intensive care units due to complications of the disease, all of whom did not receive vaccination.
Sign saying “No influenza vaccination”–
It should be noted that in Israel, it is not possible to obtain the influenza vaccine personally, as the Ministry of Health distributes all the amount it buys on the sick fund, known as “health insurance.”
The Israeli Ministry of Health announced the death of a 19-year-old man and a 14-year-old girl from infection with influenza complications, increasing that number to 10 infected people, after it was 8 people last week.
“The veteran doctors have never encountered such an aggressive disease, and that is a warning sign for all of us,” the newspaper quoted Professor Yaqub Lavi, a physician treating a 40-year-old patient, in critical condition.
“The patient came to us from the Harovet Medical Center, and all his equipment collapsed. The first member who collapsed was the heart,” he added.
