Feels a bit early for Israel to open up given their current case numbers but there you go.

High vaccination rate but still lots of cases. Lockdown for us with medium vaccination rate... Much lower numbers. I'd rather let the data and science dictate when it makes sense to reopen, as much as I'd like to just push on with opening up. Patience is key, we've waited this long what's a few more weeks etc.
