I don't get how one day BH without deaths alleviates fears of experts. Hyperbolic headline IMHO

Today looks to also be another regular weekday with very low numbers. 0.19% positive so far.

I can definitely say that it looks like there will be plenty of Israelis coming to NY for ג תמוז, I don't think we've seen such masses in a while.

Israel reported only 79 new cases on Friday and only 13 new cases on Shabbos.

Both are big week over week drops from already very low numbers.

0.2% positive on Friday and 0.1% positive on Shabbos.

Let's also see the good.

How do you figure? If 82% is domestic Israeli spread then more people entering Israel will just result in more cases coming in and there would be a proportional increase in domestic spread.

Domestic spread? Not if there isn't anyone to spread to.

Minors and the fraction of adults who aren’t immune (unvaccinated and not recovered). R will be well below 1, but it still spreads some.

Otherwise how do you explain the 82%? Are those just recently vaccinated people who didn’t build up full immunity yet?

But they are continuing to decline. Israel still didn't hit a plateau. It's winding down like everywhere with partial herd immunity. It's not absolute, but most encounters don't transfer, so it slowly dies down.

Assuming R/immunity has plateaued, an absolute increase in cases due to travel will cause an absolute increase in cases spread domestically. I agree that domestic spread will fizzle out due to herd immunity/low R, but the absolute numbers could go up.
