In Israel, which is said to be a model country for vaccination, vaccination is getting faster every day.
Israel, which is vaccinating 250,000 people a day, plans to finish vaccinating most of its people by the end of March.
Reporter Myung Hyeong-joo pointed out what is leading Israel in vaccination.

Israel has the highest vaccination rate in the world.
The U.S. and U.K. were the first to secure vaccines and start vaccinations, but Israel is ahead of the actual rate of vaccination.
In Israel, the vaccination rate per 100 people has exceeded 30%, and the vaccination rate for the elder people aged 60 and over, who are the top candidates for vaccination, is 75%.
The second vaccination of the subjects who completed the first vaccination 3 weeks ago is also progressing smoothly.
I am now at the vaccination site in Ramat Epal.
As you can see, many of you are waiting for a second shot of the Pfizer vaccine.

After the second vaccination, those waiting for vaccination are excited in the hope that they can return to their daily lives.
This is because the Israeli government issued a’green passport’ to citizens a week after the first and second vaccinations were completed, allowing them to escape all quarantine obligations.
Holders of a’green passport’ with an online certificate can participate in public events such as cultural events.
Although vaccination is accelerating, Israel still has up to 10,000 new cases per day, extending the period of its third containment.

The reason why the vaccination rate was increased in such a short time was due to the meticulous pre-planning such as securing the vaccine early, rapid transportation system, and vaccination center.
In particular, the vaccination campaign was very effective in order to make the vaccine reliable.

Israel, with an average of 250,000 people getting vaccinated a day, is now challenging a new goal of vaccinating all citizens over the age of 16 who can be vaccinated by the end of March.
