The measles outbreak in Israel continues to spread, with the Health Ministry reporting on Thursday morning that 48 people have been diagnosed across the country, 77% of whom are unvaccinated.
There are currently 13 patients hospitalized with measles, including 11 children. Three of the children, all unvaccinated, are in critical condition and being treated in intensive care units.
A Health Ministry spokesperson stated that the current data indicates a worse outbreak than was previously reported to the Ministry.
The Ministry has warned that many of the cases are in Chareidi areas, where vaccination rates are low. Ministry officials are concerned that the outbreak could worsen considerably due to the upcoming mass event at Meron on Lag B’Omer.
The Health Ministry held a number of emergency meetings on the issue last week and approved an extensive vaccination campaign for both adults and children in areas with low vaccination rates. A decision was also made to bring forward the timing of the second measles vaccine dose in high-risk areas to one month after the first dose.
The Ministry calls on anyone who feels unwell and/or suffers from measles symptoms to avoid attending mass events in order not to endanger others. The Ministry also emphasizes that anyone who has been in contact with a measles patient to carry out examinations and vaccinations according to instructions and avoid public places. Unvaccinated pregnant women, people suffering from immunosuppression, and parents of babies who were in contact with a confirmed patient should consult with relevant health offices.
The Health Ministry stated: “Measles is a highly contagious viral disease that manifests as fever, general malaise, a runny nose, and a rash, and can have serious and even life-threatening complications. In the event of symptoms and until medical clarification, avoid public spaces such as malls and public transportation. If it is necessary to go to a clinic or emergency room, coordinate your arrival and notify the staff upon arrival at the medical institution. The Ministry emphasizes the importance of administering routine vaccinations against diseases such as measles, some of which can cause serious complications and death.”

Smart idea, offer no treatment like they did in Texas such as simple nebulizing glutathione which is documented in research that it is effective in most sever pulmonary inflammation, never use a easy cheap intervention such as nebulizing budesonide, do not give them vitamin A although proven that vitamin A deficiency causes complicated cases in measles.
Ensure to hold on very tight to the narrative there is no treatment except the vaccine for prevention, also make sure NOT test the strain if it’s the vaccine strain going around cause God forbid people Wil realize the innocent vaccine is actually shedding the virus.
Allow some patients to get into the ICU and it’s even worth one or two die
that’s called collateral damage for the greater good, publish this narrative in all media Outlets, increase the vaccination rate and profits, deny any side effects, make sure no one never knows that this was never tested against a placebo , push the narrative safe and effective, make sure to repeat this cycle every 6 months for residual unlimited income 😉
