ISRAEL has ditched its mask mandate after 81 per cent of adults have received both coronavirus jabs.
The country has become the envy of the world thanks to its trail-blazing Pfizer-BioNTech powered vaccine rollout.
Approximately 81 per cent of over 16's have received both vaccine doses, which has brought a sharp decrease in hospitalisations and outbreaks.
第一个取消户外“口罩令”的国家
以色列卫生部宣布，从周日起，不再强制在该国户外戴口罩。卫生部长尤利•爱德斯坦在一份声明中报告说，他是根据专家的建议做出决定的。
他说：“这些口罩旨在保护我们免受冠状病毒的侵害。”因此，“在卫生专家得出结论认为不再需要在户外使用口罩之后，公民可自行决定是否佩戴口罩。”
以色列进行了最成功的Covid-19疫苗接种运动之一，将近500万公民接受了完整的免疫计划。
