Israel has reported a total of 341 cases of the Omicron variant, and one death so far
Israel is poised to begin administering the fourth dose of the COVID-19 vaccine for medical personnel and people aged 60 and above in a bid to curb the spread of Omicron infections in the country, the Prime Minister’s Office said on Wednesday.
The announcement comes after a top panel of medical experts had recommended on Tuesday to begin administering the fourth dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.
Those eligible for the fourth dose can administer only if four months have passed since the third dose, the panel said.

India has formally joined Pax Silica, a U.S.-led initiative focused on artificial intelligence and secure supply chains, signalling a reset in India-U.S. ties after a turbulent year. Pax Silica is aimed at protecting technology supply chains from strategic vulnerabilities — particularly amid concerns over China’s dominance in critical sectors.
