Israel has taken the lead with the world’s fastest vaccination campaign against Covid-19, so much so that nearly half of its residents have already received at least one dose of the vaccine. Today, accelerated vaccination turns the country into a living laboratory for determining the rules of a vaccinated society, raising thorny questions about rights, obligations and greater social good.
This week, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s office voted to reopen malls and museums, on condition that rules on social distancing and mandatory use of masks are followed. For the first time in many months, gyms, cultural and sporting events, hotels and swimming pools will also reopen, but only for certain people.
