ISRAEL DROPS PUBLIC MASK MANDATE WITH MORE THAN HALF POPULATION VACCINATED

  • 18/04/2021

Israel on Sunday, lifted mandate to compulsorily wear masks outdoors. Israelis stepped out on streets without masks for the first time in a year. Israel has vaccinated over half of its population in one of the world's fastest anti-COVID inoculation campaigns.Israel's health ministry had announced on Thursday that masks would no longer be required in public outdoor spaces.Rapid vaccination has led to drastic decrease in Israel's daily caseload. In January this year, the caseload was 10,000 infections per day. Now it has come to 200 cases per day.That has allowed the re-opening of schools, bars, restaurants and other indoor gatherings -- although masks are still required in indoor public spaces.
