Israel says Pfizer Covid vaccine is just 39% effective as delta spreads, but still prevents severe illness

Delta is spreading rapidly here despite the fact that we are mostly vaccinated. Keep in mind that the bulk of the population here was already fully vaccinated by February and that the vaccine efficiency may wear off over time. On the bright side, we are seeing significantly less hospitalizations. Still very scary for immunocompromised people! I had my third vaccine last week in hopes that it will finally help me develop antibodies.

Pls continue to be cautious! 💕

Thank you for that.Please take care and update us on how things are going for you.

In the U.K. we are hoping that the immunocompromised will be able to have a third vaccination in September.

Thanks again. stay safe,
