Israel special report

Special report from Dr. Harvey Belik. Thank you for this fascinating insight into the pandemic and vaccination programme in Israel.

[@pennylando3145]

The first person who told me of the importance of Vit D was my friend, an Israeli nurse. This happened around eight years ago so I was already taking it when the pandemic began. I would also say that, having been to Israel several times - once for an extended period of time on a kibbutz - I believe it's also the case that the average diet is healthier than most places in the West. It can be quite a surprise to see teenagers sitting down to salads for breakfast! Over the course of my time in Israel I saw almost no obesity and most young people have very clear skin.

i cant understand why 33 people have given the thumbs down to this video,,,,,obviously not been following his previous videos, i live in Glasgow,Scotland,UK and i can honestly say he gives a more truer account on the pandemic than any politician or main stream media has.

[@happydays59]

They're just the morons spreading the virus!

[@kathydent2116]

Probably because Israelis in illegal settlements are getting vaccinated while the Palestinians, whose land is being stolen, are excluded. It is a great shame that Dr Campbell allowed Dr Belik to slide over this fact by a vague reference to things being different in the territories. He means the areas where Israelis are illegally occupying land that belongs to someone else.

[@carrieoff]

@@avigayegos1496 Reasons behind near collapse of economy According to the report, the reasons behind the near collapse of the Palestinian economy are the expansion and tightening grip of occupation, suffocation of Gaza’s local economy, a 6% drop in donor support between 2017 and 2018, deterioration of the security situation and lack of confidence as a result of bleak political horizons. Even though all sectors of the economy are constrained by occupation, agriculture and manufacturing are disproportionately impacted and the ensuing massive trade deficit adversely affects economic growth. Between 1994 and 2018, the share of manufacturing in the economy shrunk from 20% to 11% of the gross domestic product (GDP), whereas the share of agriculture and fishing dropped from over 12% to less than a paltry 3%, the report says. The viability and competitiveness of Palestinian producers are undermined by the multi-layered system of physical and administrative restrictions deployed by the occupying power. In the West Bank alone, 705 permanent physical obstacles restrict the movement of Palestinian workers and goods. They include checkpoints, gates, earth mounds, roadblocks and trenches. In addition, the economy is further weakened by the Israeli ban on the importation of a long list of “dual use” essential technological and intermediate goods as well as other critical production inputs (“dual use” goods are civilian ones deemed, by Israel, to have potential military applications). unctad.org/news/palestinian-socioeconomic-crisis-now-breaking-point

[@paulrandall9705]

Some people in the UK seem to be claiming that the Israeli vaccination programme is successful because of the involvement of the military; I’m sure they do help in many emergency situations, but surely the main lesson is that Israel has a well-funded and organised health care system which has not been starved of resources. Not too long ago we had an effective infectious disease recording and reporting system, now we are trying to rebuild it under the leadership of someone with no relevant knowledge at all.

@@daverok1113 every one of those deaths has been in people over 70 and who had histories of heart attack, diabetes, and immunodeficiency. On top of that, they were monitored after the vaccine was administered as everyone is required to, and the death has not been directly attributed to the vaccine in any of the cases. I think this is bound to happen as the vaccine is being rolled out to immensely higher orders magnitude of people, as opposed to (the now) original trials number of vaccine receivers.

My late maternal grandfather was born in Scotland, but went to S.Africa in 1927 where he lived for the rest of his life. He died in the late 1970s and if you had spoken to him the day he died you wouldn't have guessed (from his accent) that he'd spent even one day out of Scotland!

[@dismith6968]

It's hard to have a coherent accent in Israel when most of the population is compromised of immigrants.

[@radium05]

I do catch the Israeli ring in it, and I have a hunch he has a better-than-average Hebrew accent considering he moved there in his late 20s. It really depends on the country of origin. I moved to Israel at 11 from Argentina and my accent is almost indistinguishable from a native Israeli (siblings were 8 and 5 - they're perfect native speakers). I've met other South Americans (Spanish speakers) that moved after 12 who have a thick accent they never were able to shake off. I've also met native born Israelis who carry a lot of the accent from their immigrant parents (mainly East European) even with a mostly Hebrew upbringing. Americans struggle the most. I have met South African and Australian immigrants that moved later in life to Israel who managed to work out a very convincing native-sounding Hebrew. Three English speaking countries, three different dialects and very different outcomes when it comes to speaking Hebrew. In my experience, American English has proven to be a difficult mold to break out of because of strong pronounced diphthongs (au, ei, ou, etc.).

[@HelenDemetriou]

I live in Cyprus which is not far from Israel. We had the same kind of lockdown for 3 months. We could only go out for essentials after sending a text stating our reason and waiting for a reply to tell us if we had permission or not. We could only go out once a day for exercise but we weren't allowed to go further than 2m from our homes. Our airports only permitted repatriation flights and the passengers were all tested on arrival and stayed for 2 weeks in allocated hotels paid by the government. We had a good summer, we received tourists from the UK and Europe but now we will be told on Friday we are going back into full lockdown.

[@carolm7037]

[@rossmurray9654]

Australia has been pretty much back to normal (apart from a few social distancing rules) for some time already. Cases have been low since April, with one exception: the state of Victoria (with about 1/4 of the population) needed a second, very strict lockdown for 3 months. Even though most of our deaths happened during that period, our overall death rate per capita is only 1/10th of Israel. Also, New Zealand has done even better than us. What we did differently was shutting our borders! Citizens and residents are allowed to return home, but there is a mandatory quarantine period of 14 days in a hotel room upon arrival. I cannot understand why other countries aren't doing that too. I think too many govts have tried to minimise disruption to their economy. In practice, getting serious about suppressing the virus first will very quickly become the best option for the economy too. Sorry if this sounds a bit preachy. It has been astonishing to watch so many needless deaths around the world simply because govts have got their priorities wrong.

For the information of others, @Tom johnson is one of our trolls here. Yes, I do mean a "few social distancing rules". The tourism and entertainment sectors are still suffering, but for most of us there are few restrictions on what we can do. And our economy has definitely done MUCH better than all of Europe. Our GDP was down 7.0% in Q2, but rebounded back by 3.3% in Q3 - even though Victoria was in its lockdown for most of that quarter.

[@annoyedaussie3942]

Australia is that model where the states run the show, the federal government can only in practice look after the international border. Close your state border to all states and territories with a case of community transmission in the last 28days ( all of them) , special arrangements for workers ,goods transport , medical care etc. other wise 14 days mandatory enforced hotel quarantine with 2 tests on days 3 and 10 at the cost of the person/s entering other than compassionate reasons. Refuse to be tested add 10 days to quarantine and costs. This method works and it is within your states right to do it. I have just spelt out the basic rules in general terms of Queensland Australia, about 500 cases of community transmission and 7 deaths I think from a population of approximately 5,000,000. The reward for this method is your state can be completely open internally when you get rid of the virus. Should take about 12 weeks for most states with an initial proper lockdown because immunity rates from catching the virus plus vaccines is much higher everywhere than Victoria Australia was and they could do it after reaching 500 cases per day. If any strain evades the vaccines you will be back to January 21 last year, also having this virus rampant doesn't preclude another such zoonotic virus entering the world which some say is about 1% chance as in once in a hundred year thing.

Turns out, that after this whole time, out and about everyday in Stockholm, public transit, shopping malls etc, often quite crowded, and I still don't have any antibodies. Does that mean I haven't been exposed? Could I have been exposed, but my immune system fought it off before any infection took place? Have had no symptoms at all. Does anyone here have any idea?

[@YvonneWilson312]

I think if your immune ystem had fought it off you would have antibodies. Maybe you have managed to avoid anyone who could have infected you. Stay well :-)

[@toomuchisneverenough4668]

@@YvonneWilson312 It could be. Funny in that case. We never had a lockdown in Stockholm. I have been out and about everyday since this started. I have a job where I meet lots of people face to face all the time.

Very small population

[@Leoviliti1]

@@ralph95 Israel is definately a much smaller population ...and the UK is a small country but an extremely overcrowded population...not much space surrounds each other to keep this so called distance..so the likelihood of catching the virus has been inevitable. So yes, we are paying the price of cases and deaths... In the USA it's the overcrowded states that have the most deaths..too.. Many states haven't seen more than a hundred deaths. New York however, what with ..skyscrapers the overcrowding there.. It'll remain vastly on top with its death toll.. along with other smaller states with over crowding going on ..

Covid is seasonal and Israel has a completely different climate.

[@HartaBuna]

There are many preexisting mechanisms in place to control the population in Israel. It was easier for them to go into total lockdown where you don't leave the house for any reason. Can cost your life during a war.

@@NibbleIT Not in the tropics, seasonality makes little difference over time. Brazil is in the tropics and hasn't done well. Israel itself hasn't done well, they are just doing well at distribution of emergency approved vaccines.

Dr John, I'm a huge fan. (American living in Switzerland) I'm a scientist (PhD biologist) and I've been watching your channel for months. I've noticed that you never address Switzerland. It's a bad situation, maybe you could address that?
