So far he has a אישור החלמה

EMACARE said that there is something else that is being processed at the Ministry of Health, but we dont have it yet.
Is he a member of קופת חולים?
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

The published numbers are below what should be expected.

There’s only one big argument against that and that is that most of the Israeli testing is for Covid contacts who get shorter quarantine if they test negative, but people who got the second vaccine are already exempt from quarantine so the testing ratio is much lower. One way or another this is way better than our wildest dreams 6 months ago.

How could it be better? Did enough people with the second shot get exposed to Covid that we can say its successful? Within a week of starting the second shots we have renifections. I think the next month will be the best judge of whether its successful.

Is there guidance as to whether Israel will give a green passport for entry to Israel if you have a positive antibody test taken in Israel?

It's not expected to qualify, but its worth noting that they haven't finalized the framework yet.

#1 below is for a 72-hour green passport following negative test.

Hashem Yishmor. Sounds like a super spreader situation.

Sorry, sounds like they've not been keeping the rules.

Sorry, sounds like they've not been keeping the rules.
They are foreign dorm students who are allowed to remain on campus so long as they don't leave it. The Israeli capsule system allows for shared air so it's quite possible all 67 got infected in one Beit Midrash sitting from shared air.

They may have broken rules, but this can very well happen within the rules. It's also not that much of a problem in the short term provided they maintain the discipline and non of the 100 students goes back into the community. Everybody in there knew all along they have a high chance of getting infected.

Slow down. The term “super spreader event” objectively describes a situation in which many people contracted COVID, it doesn’t pass judgement on whether participants in such an event followed rules or not.

G-d should watch over everyone, even those who don’t follow the rules (and in a sense may have been asking for it). I don’t see the two as mutually exclusive.
