Last Updated: COVID-19: Pfizer Jab Prevents Severe Illness In Israel As Delta Variant Spreads Pfizer Inc’s COVID-19 vaccine was showing less efficacy in protecting people in Israel against the Delta variant but continues to prevent severe illnesses. IMAGE: AP/PTI Pfizer Inc’s COVID-19 vaccine was showing less efficacy in protecting people in Israel against the Delta variant of coronavirus in recent weeks but the government data has reportedly revealed that the jab continues to provide a strong shield against severe illness. As per a Bloomberg report, the Pfizer shot protected 64% of people in Israel against severe COVID-19 between June 6 and early July. The drop was observed from 94% as delta variant continues to spread in the country, said the Israeli Health Ministry. Further, the number of people safeguarded against severe disease also plunged because it coincided with the easing of coronavirus restrictions that were introduced at the start of June.
