I included that line because it's likely a part of Israel's success

in getting that low level of transmission at that vaccination rate with those behaviors. I don't know the exact impact, but maybe you need to be at a vaccination rate of 70% instead of 50% to see that drop without proof of vaccines and those behaviors. Hopefully, that's of value to others in terms of what they support or in setting realistic expectations for the next handful of months.

However, I'm not advocating for a particular policy by the government nor by a business; I'm not out to tell you what you should value.
