The entire world is shattered completely due to the second wave of coronavirus. When several countries are struggling to control the spread, the government of Israel announced that there would be no need to wear outdoor masks in the country and people are spotted barefaced all over. The government completed mass vaccination in Israel and cited this as the reason. More than 81 percent of the Indians over the age group of 16 took up the vaccine for coronavirus (both the doses). The entry of the foreigners is limited to Israel. All the Israelis who return back to the country should stay in self isolation. The Health Ministry of Israel announced that they have detected seven cases of Indian variant of coronavirus recently. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the reporters that Israel is leading the world right now through mass vaccination but they are not finished with coronavirus.

The government announced wearing face mask a year ago and the rule is now scrapped. The Health Ministry of Israel says that the facemasks should be used indoors and in other indoor public spaces. The country is now relaxed after the rule of wearing a facemask in the public is scrapped. All the schools across the country are now reopened. The middle school pupils are kept at home and they are now asked to attend the schools. The teachers are asked to teach through the ventilating classrooms and the students are asked to maintain social distancing during their breaks. The extra-curricular activities have been restricted. The total population of Israel is close to 9.3 million.
