Israel: No New COVID Cases Recorded Thursday

Israel’s health ministry said Friday that no COVID deaths were recorded on Thursday. It was the first day in 10 months that the ministry did not register any COVID deaths.

The last time no new cases were recorded in the Middle Eastern country was June 29. Israel has been a world leader in inoculating its population against the coronavirus. More than 5 million Israelis, a little under 58% of the population, have received both doses of the vaccines.
