Israel’s Health Minister Recorded Saying There Is “No Medical or Epidemiological Justification for the COVID Passport”

Minister: "It is only intended to pressure the unvaccinated to vaccinate"

The Times of Israel 665 3

Several ministers were overheard prior to a cabinet meeting on Sunday saying that some coronavirus-related restrictions are only aimed at incentivizing vaccination, rather than driving down morbidity, while lamenting that the unvaccinated are taking up hospital beds.

“I also think you can remove the Green Pass for outdoor restaurants,” Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked told Health Minister Nitzan Horowitz, in footage broadcast by Channel 12 news on Sunday evening.

The “Green Pass” is a document held by those who are vaccinated or have recovered from COVID, and is required to access most indoor public places, as well as crowded outdoor attractions.

“In pools, too, not just in restaurants. Epidemiologically it’s correct,” Horowitz responded to Shaked, noting that the Green Pass is not particularly needed at outdoor gatherings.

“The thing is, I’m telling you this, our problem is people who don’t get vaccinated. We need that they… otherwise… we will not get out of this,” the health minister added.

Horowitz pointed out that the Green Pass currently applies to most public attractions, except malls, and he doesn’t want to make exceptions, “because then they will say — if not pools, then why water parks?

“Still, we don’t want to do things that don’t have medical justification.”

But, the health minister added, “we have a problem. The Green Pass is not enforced, especially in the Arab sector… it does not exist, and I see it in hospitals. It’s overloading the hospitals,” Horowitz lamented.

“You can really see now,” Horowitz said. “Let’s say a person under 60-65 in critical condition arrives at a hospital, without a doubt, he’s unvaccinated. Above 60-65 it is two-thirds unvaccinated and one-third vaccinated, more or less. [COVID] is [now] an event of the unvaccinated,” he explained to Shaked. [Incidentally, that’s nowhere near accurate.]

Intelligence Minister Elazar Stern joined the pair’s conversation at that point: “It’s irritating,” he said, “that [the unvaccinated] are taking up beds” in hospital’s coronavirus wards.

“In intensive care, yes,” replied Horowitz.

Numbers released by the Health Ministry on Friday showed that among people under 60, those without a third dose of the vaccine were nearly three times as likely to wind up seriously ill, and those without any vaccination were around 10 times as likely. [However, the vaccinated outnumber the unvaccinated by such an amount that there are nonetheless far more vaccinated hospitalizations.] For those over 60, having a booster made you 10 times less likely than a vaccinated person to be in serious condition, and 40 times less likely than an unvaccinated person.

A senior health official said Friday that the vast majority of COVID-19 patients hospitalized in serious condition were unvaccinated. [Which is a straight lie.]

Sharon Alroy-Preis, head of public health at the Health Ministry, said Friday that almost every COVID-19 patient on a ventilator is not vaccinated. Additionally, of the 27 patients connected to extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) machines, most of whom are under the age of 60, 90 percent were unvaccinated, according to Alroy-Preis.

    Here is an interesting open letter to public health officials which clearly outlines their failures:

    A great deal of the crisis has been created by governments which have underfunded the health care systems in their respective nations/provinces/states for decades, leading to a system which is barely able to cope at the best of times.

    “It’s irritating,” he said, “that [the unvaccinated] are taking up beds” in hospital’s coronavirus wards.”

    Do they say the same for people that smoke? overweight?

    Veronica Wolski murdered in custody in a Chicago hospital despite pleas to release her after hospital refuses dying woman’s request to use Ivermectin. Hospital used Remdesivir another Fraudci drug that destroys the kidneys and is also emergency use authorization. Ivermectin however is fully FDA approved and got a Nobel Prize for its ability to save lives.

    Hospitals are now prisons. Doctors are now executioners.

    A person who is dying no longer has the right to request a treatment that isn’t politically correct.

    As everyone knows I do not think the virus exists but that said a hospital is not a prison,,, you are not an inmate. Right or Wrong,,, if you want to leave the hospital it’s is your business and your right. Same if you want a particular treatment.

    Obviously she had pneumonia but they were treating her for covid. The doctors, staff and administration of this hospital are all guilty of homicide. The crime was planned before hand and committed in front of witnesses and therefore would be in the first degree.

    She was called a anti-vaxxer,,, a QAnon wacko,,, so she was cancelled…. literally! I mean no one seemed to care that she died. Only what her political leanings were.

    This hospital (and thousands of others) is full of lunatics,,, does not operate professionally and is killing people to make a political message.

    It has went from name calling to outright murder and mayhem. A woman in UK was forced to get the jab because she needed a cesarean. She took the jab and now the baby has uncontrollable shakes. The useless quacks claim they have no idea what could have caused this.

    The war on humanity is going live…. Only God can save us from the great deceiver. God have mercy on Ms Wolsk’s soul and eternal damnation for her killers.
