Coronavirus conversations: Vaccinations in Israel
We speak to people in Israel which currently has the world's highest vaccination rate
An increasing number of countries around the world are starting to vaccinate their populations against Covid-19. Today we look at Israel, which has the highest rate of vaccinations globally, with nearly 15% of the population already vaccinated. We'll speak to people in Israel and the Palestinian territories about the vaccination program.
Also, every day we invite a health expert to help us understand the latest news about coronavirus and to answer listener questions. Today we are joined by Dr Maria Sundaram, an infectious disease epidemiologist at the ICES Ontario.
And there's lots of reports from the US saying that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are getting a divorce. The reports are so far unconfirmed by the couple, who have been married since 2014. We'll speak to a reporter who's been following the story to find out what we know so far.
