Horowitz: parents are responsible for vaccinating children

Health Minister Nitzan Horowitz has warned that in the near future Israel will have such a powerful outbreak of coronavirus due to the Omicron strain, which has not yet been due to other COVID-19 variants.

He made the corresponding statement on Monday, December 20.

According to the minister, there is an insufficient level of vaccination against coronavirus in Israel, especially among children, in order to resist the new strain.

& quot; Ultimately, the responsibility for vaccinating children rests primarily with the parents. If a parent decides not to vaccinate their children & ndash; the responsibility rests with him. If you want to protect your child & ndash; you must protect yourself first and foremost “, & ndash; noted Horowitz.
