Arab medical staff left their homes for days at a time to keep a hospital in the range of Gaza rocket fire running smoothly and so their Jewish counterparts could have a break over the Shavuot holiday earlier this week.
Amid rocket fire and with Arab-Jewish violence on streets, many Arab staffers at Assuta Hospital in Ashdod, which is about 15 miles from the Gaza border and has treated 111 people who have suffered from the ongoing violence, said they were scared by their commute to work.

Israelis participating in clinical trials of a locally produced potential vaccine against the coronavirus can still get the vaccine made by Pfizer, health authorities clarified on Sunday.
Clinical trials of any drug or vaccine involve controls: one group receives the actual active ingredient and another group gets a placebo, which has no biological effect. Under normal conditions, neither the tester nor the testee know in advance whether a subject received a real drug or placebo.
Now however due to the circumstances, if a test subject wishes to receive the Pfizer inoculation, their file will be opened; if they received a placebo and not the Israeli vaccine, they will be informed accordingly. Placebo recipients can then get the Pfizer shot, explains Dr. Erez Birnbaum, CEO of the Assuta Ashdod Medical Center, which is one of the sites at which the Israeli vaccine is being tested.
