Israel on Tuesday started vaccinating children ages 5-11 after the relevant health agencies approved the move earlier this month.
Officials are looking at the rollout of Pfizer-BioNTech shots for young children as a way to decrease the number of cases in the country and prevent another wave of infection from developing, according to The Associated Press.
Almost half of the active COVID-19 cases in Israel can be traced back to children ages 5 to 11, according to Health Ministry statistics cited by the AP.
Demand for the vaccine among the young age group was low on the first day it was available, the AP reported, citing Israeli media.
Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett revealed on Twitter that he took his 9-year-old son David to get inoculated.
"Today we are starting the nationwide campaign to vaccinate children, first of all to safeguard our children. David was just vaccinated. This safeguards both children and parents, and the entire State of Israel," the prime minister wrote on Twitter, according to The Times of Israel.

Canada started the roll-out for kids, too. In Ontario, the fully vaccinated have higher Covid positive numbers than the unvaccinated. Their reasoning: More people have the vaccine, than don’t. It’s a percentage thing.
Right. Thats how vaccinations work in the clown world. 😒Squats and Maple syrup son. Squats and Maple syrup.
