Jerusalem CNN —Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is in hospital for medical evaluation but is in a “good condition,” his office said. Netanyahu was admitted Saturday to the Sheba Medical Center in Ramat Gan, a suburb of Tel Aviv, according to his office.

Kanotopsky, who is now 46 and works for the Jewish Agency for Israel, told me her life story a few weeks ago as we sat aboard an Ethiopian Airlines jet flying from Addis Ababa to Tel Aviv. By June, this chapter of aliyah, Jewish immigration to Israel, will end, and this door to Ethiopians will be closed, at least for now. The problem is, there are still anywhere from 9,000 to 12,000 people in Ethiopia who practice Judaism and believe themselves to be Jews — even if the state of Israel believes their familial ties to Judaism are too weak.

☆ Studiu: Vaccinul Pfizer ar opri transmiterea coronavirusului. Nivelul de anticorpi, mai mare decât după o formă gravă de COVID-19

Un studiu israelian a arătat faptul că este puțin probabil ca cei care primesc vaccinul Pfizer împotriva COVID-19 să transmită mai departe virusul altor persoane, scrie Telegraph, citat de digi24.ro. În ceea ce privește cea de-a doua persoană, nu există încă o explicație însă spitalul investighează situația. Ceilalți 100 de participanți la studiu au dezvoltat niveluri de anticorpi chiar mai mari decât pacienții care s-au recuperat după o formă gravă de COVID-19, se arată în comunicatul transmis de spital. Studiul organizat de israelieni este primul indiciu că un vaccin împotriva COVID-19 ar putea opri transmiterea coronavirusului. „Rezultatele studiului sunt în linia testelor făcute de Pfizer și chiar depășesc așteptările”, a declarat Regev-Yohai.
