1:08Now PlayingNew daily confirmed cases in Israel rose to a record 71,000 on Tuesday, more than six times the highest number reached in previous waves.
The actual figure is probably between two and three times that amount, when unconfirmed infections are included, Health Ministry Director General Nachman Ash said in an Army Radio interview. Israel recently stopped giving PCR tests on demand, so cases are no longer registered as accurately as before.
Still, the number of severe cases has climbed to less than half the level reached during the delta wave. The country, a leader in vaccination, has already given a fourth dose of Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine to more than 500,000 people.
