| Israel postpones roll-out of COVID vaccine to Palestinian workers | | Aljazeera - Israel says it is postponing until further notice plans
to administer COVID vaccinations to Palestinians who work inside the
country and in its settlements in the occupied West Bank.//The
announcement was confirmed by the Palestinian Authority who said it
had reached an agreement with Israel that would see the country
vaccinate 100,000 Palestinian workers.
But COGAT on Friday announced a postponement which it attributed to
“administrative delays,” saying that a new start for the campaign
would be determined at a later time. The inoculation drive was
supposed to begin on Sunday at West Bank crossings into Israel and at
Israeli industrial zones. Such inoculations could have assuaged
criticism of Israel for not sharing significant amounts of its COVID
vaccine stockpiles with Palestinians living under Israeli control in
the West Bank and those in the Gaza Strip – even as Israel succeeded
in launching one of the fastest vaccine roll-outs in the world Israel
had also announced plans to share surplus vaccines with far-flung
allies in Africa, Europe and Latin America, but the decision was
frozen by legal questions. (rh)

| Israel will start vaccinating Palestinian workers on Sunday | | Aaron Boxerman - The Coordinator of Government Activities in the
Territories (COGAT), which is in charge of Palestinian civilian
affairs, said it will roll out the immunization campaign at
checkpoints and industrial zones across the West Bank. The
government approved the plan on Sunday. Around 87,000 Palestinians
hold work permits in Israel, and an additional 35,000 work in
Israeli settlements, according to Defense Ministry figures.
cated vaccination complexes will be initially set up for the
campaign, COGAT said — eight for those employed in Israel and four
for those employed in the West Bank — with Israeli healthcare
workers administering the shots. More centers may be opened later.
The change op policy, after weeks of Israel declaining any
responsibility for vaccinating Palestinian, seems derived from
health experts warning that new dangerous mutations of Covid-19
might eneter Israel from the West Bank. [ak]
